"Detachment of the carinal hook following endobronchial intubation with a double lumen tube"
BACKGROUND Carinal hooks increases difficulty at endotracheal intubation. Amputation of the carinal hook during passage and malpositioning of the tube to the hook are some of the potential problems related with left-sided Carlens double lumen tube (DLT). This article reports an amputation of the hook during a difficult selective intubation and aimed at calling the attention to complications ass...
متن کاملRetrograde orotracheal intubation with a double-lumen tube.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Difficult airway management in thoracic surgeries is a peculiar subject due to the demands of monopulmonary ventilation with double-lumen tubes. Flexible bronchoscopy guidance is extremely important, but it is not always available. The objective of this report was to describe a case of retrograde selective orotracheal intubation in the absence of specific endoscopy equ...
متن کاملRandomized, controlled trial of the double setup tracheal tube during fibreoptic orotracheal intubation under general anaesthesia.
BACKGROUND Impingement of the tracheal tube (ETT) on upper airway structures during railroading over the fibreoptic bronchoscope (FOB) occurs commonly. Potential complications of impingement include prolonged intubation time, leading to arterial desaturation, failed intubation and laryngeal trauma. The objective of this randomized, controlled trial was to assess the effect of the double setup E...

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...
