Management of bronchopleural fistula using a modified single lumen tube
provided the original work is properly cited. CC Bronchopleural fistula (BPF) is defined as a pathologic connection between the tracheobronchial tree and the pleural space with persistent air leak for more than 24 hours. It is associated with poor prognosis after pneumonectomy [1], which mainly contributes to the occurrence among elective lung resections despite the outstanding advances in surg...
متن کاملThe anaesthetic management of patients with bronchopleural fistula with the Robertshaw double-lumen tube.
A method of anaesthesia for the repair of bronchopleural fistulae is described which involves the use of the Robertshaw double-lumen tube. Our experience with its use on twenty occasions is described, and in eleven of them the method was completely successful. In none of the other nine cases were the difficulties encountered such as to render the technique unsafe. Both from the point of view of...
متن کاملUse of a modified endobronchial tube for mechanical ventilation of patients with bronchopleural fistula.
Mechanical ventilation in patients with bronchopleural fistula after lung resection is a major problem, as it causes increase of the air-leak, complicates the healing process and makes residual lung tissue ventilation difficult. We present two cases in which the use of a modified double lumen endobronchial tube improved ventilation and eliminated the fistula air-leak. We used a right-sided doub...
متن کاملDiagnosis and management bronchopleural fistula.
The diagnosis and management of bronchopleural fistula (BPF) remain a major therapeutic challenge for clinicians. It is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis and localisation of BPF is sometimes difficult and may require multiple imaging and bronchoscopies. Successful management of a fistula is combined with treatment of the associated empyema cavity. The first step, th...
متن کاملComparison of a modified double-lumen endotracheal tube with a single-lumen tube with enclosed bronchial blocker.
This study compared the modified BronchoCath double-lumen endotracheal tube with the Univent bronchial blocker to determine whether there were objective advantages of one over the other during anesthesia with one-lung ventilation (OLV). Forty patients having either thoracic or esophageal procedures were randomly assigned to one of two groups. Twenty patients received a left-side modified Bronch...
