Double lumen tube location predicts tube malposition and hypoxaemia during one lung ventilation.
BACKGROUND Poor positioning of an endobronchial double lumen tube (DLT) could affect oxygenation during one lung ventilation (OLV). We set out to relate DLT position to hypoxaemia and DLT misplacement during OLV. METHODS We recruited 152 ASA physical status I-II patients about to have elective thoracic surgery. The trachea was intubated with a left-sided DLT. Tube position was assessed by fib...
متن کاملDouble-lumen endotracheal tube for one-lung ventilation through a fresh tracheostomy stoma: a case report.
For one-lung ventilation in many surgical cases, double-lumen endotracheal tubes are the first-line choice for airway management. For most cases, double-lumen endotracheal tubes are faster, easier to place, cheaper, and less prone to malposition than today's bronchial blocker devices. This report describes an elective tracheostomy and the use of a double-lumen endotracheal tube directly through...
متن کاملSelection of an Appropriate Left-sided Double-lumen Tube Size for One-lung Ventilation among Asians
CONTEXT Selecting an appropriate size double-lumen tube (DLT) for one-lung ventilation has always been a challenge as most choose it based on experience or using the existing guidelines based on gender and height. AIMS The aim of this study was to determine if the appropriate choice of this tube could be based on the patients' height, weight, tracheal diameter (TD), or the left main stem bron...
متن کاملLeft mainstem bronchial rupture during one-lung ventilation with Robertshaw double lumen endobronchial tube -A case report-
Lung separation using a double-lumen endobronchial tube is necessary for video assisted thoracoscopy (VATs). Bronchial rupture after intubation with a double-lumen endobronchial tube has been rarely reported. We report a case of a 70-year-old man who had solitary pulmonary nodule in his right upper lobe. He was intubated with a left-sided Robertshaw double-lumen endobronchial tube. He underwent...
متن کاملRandomized clinical trial comparing double-lumen tube and EZ-Blocker for single-lung ventilation.
BACKGROUND In several clinical situations, lung separation and single-lung ventilation (SLV) is essential. In these cases, the double-lumen tube (DLT) is the most widely used device. Bronchial blocker such as Univent or Arndt Blocker serves as an alternative. The EZ-Blocker(®) (EZ; AnaesthetIQ B.V., Rotterdam, The Netherlands) is a new device promising to exceed clinical performance of DLT. The...
