About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Collapsed Lung focused on measuring lung ultrasound, recruitment maneuver, atelectasis, children

Control group
Recruitment maneuver group
After anesthesia induction patients received lung recruitment maneuver using pressure-control ventilation with a patient in supine position with 10 cmH2O level of positive end-expiratory pressure PEEP during 180 seconds. Lung ultrasound examination will be performed at two different times-point immediately after induction and after recruitment maneuver to monitor lung aeration.
Patients received lung recruitment maneuver with postural changes of lateral decubitus using pressure-control ventilation, 10 cmH2O level of PEEP in left and in right lateral decubitus during 90 seconds in each one. Lung ultrasound examination will be performed at two different times-point immediately after induction and after recruitment maneuver to monitor lung aeration.
