Tracheal 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...
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 ...

متن کاملUse of GlideScope for double lumen endotracheal tube insertion in an awake patient with difficult airway.
There is scientific evidence that an anticipated difficult airway must be managed with the patient being awake. The GlideScope has been proven to be a useful device to intubate the trachea in some instances when difficult airway is present, and particularly in the awake patient. It has also been used for double lumen tube (DLT) in the anaesthetized patient, but its use with DLT in both circumst...
متن کاملThe height-based formula for prediction of left-sided double-lumen tracheal tube depth.
In the commonly used double-lumen tube (DLT) intubation procedure, the tip of a DLT is inserted into the mainstem bronchus in a blind fashion, followed by determination of precise DLT position by a fiberoptic bronchoscope. Several studies have suggested that insertion depth for a left-sided DLT is correlated with physical factors including height and neck length.1-3 However, there are no widely...
