What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of apneic oxygenation and CPAP applied to the non-dependent lung during pulmonary resection surgery in reducing inflammatory response, ischemia-reperfusion injury, and postoperative complications. We will conduct a randomized, controlled, and blinded study in 177 patients with three arms: * Control Group: Oxygen therapy according to standard clinical practice * Apneic oxygenation group: A probe will be introduced through the lumen of the double-lumen tube (DLT) to administer a continuous source of oxygen without any mechanism that generates airway pressure. * CPAP Group: Continuous positive airway pressure with 3-5 L/min oxygen flow and 2 cm H2O pressure delivered via a Mapleson system. Inflammatory mediators in blood and in both lungs will be measured intraoperatively and 24 hours after surgery. Patients will be followed from h
