Small tidal volume ventilation using a zero deadspace tracheal tube.
The zero deadspace tracheal tube (ZEDS-TT) is a double-lumen endobronchial tube with a truncated bronchial limb. Functionally it is unrelated to the familiar endobronchial tube used in lung isolation surgery. It is placed in the same position as a regular tracheal tube and, by means of special connectors, one limb is used for inspiration and the other for expiration, thereby greatly reducing an...
متن کاملTracheal tube biofilm removal through a novel closed-suctioning system: an experimental study.
BACKGROUND Tracheal tube biofilm develops during mechanical ventilation. We compared a novel closed-suctioning system vs standard closed-suctioning system in the prevention of tracheal tube biofilm. METHODS Eighteen pigs, on mechanical ventilation for 76 h, with P. aeruginosa pneumonia were randomized to be tracheally suctioned via the KIMVENT* closed-suctioning system (control group) or a no...
متن کاملCapillary tube wetting induced by particles: towards armoured bubbles tailoring.
In this paper, we report on the strongly modified dynamics of a liquid finger pushed inside a capillary tube, when partially wettable particles are lying on the walls. Particles promote the appearance of new regimes and enable the tailored synthesis of bubbles encapsulated in a monolayer of particles (so-called "armoured bubbles"). This remarkable behavior arises due to the collection of partic...
متن کاملA new tracheal tube for difficult intubation.
We have compared a new Portex tracheal tube with the Oxford tube in performing simulated grade 3 difficult intubations. The Portex tube was modified so that the bevel faced backwards, as in the Oxford tube. A gum elastic introducer was used with both tubes. The time taken and number of attempts needed were recorded, with changes in arterial pressure, heart rate and incidence of sore throat. Bot...
متن کاملtracheal tube aspiration : a case report
a 62-yr-old woman with a history of papillary carcinoma of thyroid who had undergone thyroidectomy and tracheostomy 5 years prior to admission, presented with bleeding from the site of tracheostomy. attempts to control the bleeding failed, and the patient was immediately transported to the operating room. awake intubation was performed and the endotracheal tube was sutured to the skin. a tear i...
