Blind endobronchial insertion of a movable bronchial blocker attached to an endotracheal tube, Univent tube.
The endotracheal tube with a movable bronchial blocker, Univent tube, used to effect one-lung ventilation is easy to use in endotracheal intubation. However, problems are often encountered when inserting the blocker into the bronchus. We herein describe a method which enables the easy blind insertion of the blocker into the left or right bronchus. The techniques of inserting the blocker into th...

متن کاملEndotracheal tube extubation force: adhesive tape versus endotracheal tube holder.
BACKGROUND Adhesive tape is commonly used to secure the endotracheal tube (ETT) in anesthesia and intensive-care settings. OBJECTIVE To determine the force required to extubate when the ETT is secured with adhesive tape or commercially available ETT holders. METHODS We orally intubated a simulation manikin with a standard 8.0-mm inner-diameter ETT, inflated the cuff to 20 cm H(2)O, and mea...
