A simple blind placement of the left-sided double-lumen tubes: Erratum
One-lung ventilation (OLV) has been commonly provided by using a double-lumen tube (DLT). Previous reports have indicated the high incidence of inappropriate DLT positioning in conventional maneuvers.After obtaining approval from the medical ethics committee of First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University and written consent from patients, 88 adult patients belonging to American societ...
متن کاملThe clinical use of right-sided double-lumen tubes.
Right-sided double-lumen tubes (DLTs) have a bad reputation. Many experts in the field of thoracic anesthesia regard them as being difficult to position, having a small margin of safety for correct placement, and being prone to intraoperative malpositioning. However, in a randomized prospective study, Campos et al. compared the use of right vs left DLTs in two groups of 20 patients having left ...
متن کاملMisplacement of left-sided double-lumen tubes into the right mainstem bronchus: incidence, risk factors and blind repositioning techniques
BACKGROUND Double-lumen endobronchial tubes (DLTs) are commonly advanced into the mainstem bronchus either blindly or by fiberoptic bronchoscopic guidance. However, blind advancement may result in misplacement of left-sided DLTs into the right bronchus. Therefore, incidence, risk factors, and blind repositioning techniques for right bronchial misplacement of left-sided DLTs were investigated. ...
متن کاملIntubation with VivaSight or conventional left-sided double-lumen tubes: a randomized trial.
INTRODUCTION Double-lumen endotracheal tubes (DLTs), which are commonly used for single-lung ventilation during surgery, are difficult to insert. In addition, they often move during surgical lung manipulation which can cause life-threatening complications. Flexible bronchoscopy is used routinely to establish and confirm proper DLT placement. The newly designed VivaSight DLT has an integrated ca...
متن کاملTracheal diameter predicts double-lumen tube size: a method for selecting left double-lumen tubes.
T here are no objective criteria for selecting the size of a double-lumen endobronchial tube (DLT) (1). An inappropriately sized DLT can cause airway trauma and interfere with oxygenation and lung separation during one-lung ventilation. The goal of this study was to determine if measurement of tracheal diameter from the preoperative chest radiograph can be used to predict which size DLT to choo...
