Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedSurgery: Cardiovascular
InterventionIn order to answer the research question above the study has the following specific research aims. For selected patients undergoing cardiac surgery and randomised into either a group that is ventilated on bypass or a group that is not, to measure and compare between the two groups:

1. Pulmonary gas exchange
2. Lung mechanics
3. The activation of "inflammatory" pathways within the lungs
4. The presence of increased pulmonary vascular endothelial permeability
5. The presence of other evidence for pulmonary vascular endothelial damage or lung epithelial injury
Intervention typeProcedure/Surgery
Primary outcome measure(s)

1. intubation time
2. duration of inpatient stay
3. incidence of chest complications

Key secondary outcome measure(s)
