Double-lumen tube placement: protecting the good lung.
Correspondence Post-thoracotomy epidural vs paravertebral analgesia Editor.-I read with interest the article by Richardson and colleagues on post-thoracotomy pain.' The authors compared thoracic paravertebral bupivacaine (bolus of 0. 5 6 followed by infusion of 0.5%) with thoracic epidural bupivacaine (bolus of 0.25% followed by infusion of 0.25%). Both groups received PCA morphine. The paraver...
متن کاملHaemodynamic response at double lumen bronchial tube placement - Airtraq vs. MacIntosh laryngoscope, a randomised controlled trial
INTRODUCTION Tracheal intubation causes a haemodynamic response that might be harmful for patients. The Airtraq® laryngoscope has been shown to decrease the haemodynamic response to single-lumen tube intubation. We hypothesised that double-lumen bronchial tube placement with the Double-lumen Airtraq® laryngoscope would cause a reduced haemodynamic response and decreased catecholamine release co...
متن کاملElectrical impedance tomography to confirm correct placement of double-lumen tube: a feasibility study.
BACKGROUND Double-lumen tubes (DLTs) are frequently used to establish one-lung ventilation (OLV). Their correct placement is crucial. We hypothesized that electrical impedance tomography (EIT) reliably displays distribution of ventilation between left and right lung and may thus be used to verify correct DLT placement online. METHODS Regional ventilation was studied by EIT in 40 patients requ...
متن کاملDouble Lumen Endotracheal Tube for Percutaneous Tracheostomy
BACKGROUND: Percutaneous dilational tracheostomy is normally a bronchoscope-guided procedure. The insertion of a bronchoscope into an endotracheal tube (ETT) affects resistance, flow, and alveolar pressure. To improve airway management and ventilation during percutaneous tracheostomy, we developed a double lumen endotracheal tube (DLET). The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the linear ...
