Lung separation and the difficult airway.
Selective collapse of a lung and one-lung ventilation (OLV) is now performed for most thoracic surgical procedures. Modern double-lumen endobronchial tubes and bronchial blockers have made lung separation safe and relatively easy to achieve. However, OLV in the patient with a 'difficult airway' can present a challenge to the anaesthesiologist. This review considers the different techniques used...
متن کاملManagement of the difficult Airway
The appropriate airway management is the important point during the anesthesia. For it dose, ‎taking history, physical examination (head and neck, mandible, mouth opening, neck ‎movements …) must be done completely and they are helpful in estimating difficult ‎intubation.‎ It is necessary to note that one case from every ‎‏5000‏‎ cases of anesthesia, not o...

متن کاملDifficult airway and one lung ventilation.
The number of indications for lung collapse during different procedures is rising. Difficult upper airway is more often encountered with the need for single lung ventilation. In patients with difficult airway, the safest approach is by placing a single-lumen endotracheal tube with the aid of a flexible fiberoptic bronchoscope. Lung isolation in these patients is then achieved by means of a bron...
متن کاملLung Isolation in the Patient With a Difficult Airway.
One-lung ventilation is routinely used to facilitate exposure for thoracic surgical procedures and can be achieved via several lung isolation techniques. The optimal method for lung isolation depends on a number of factors that include (1) the indication for lung isolation, (2) anatomic features of the upper and lower airway, (3) availability of equipment and devices, and (4) the anesthesiologi...
