A Dilatable Bronchial Cannula
نویسنده
چکیده
The cannula is adapted for use in the bronchial tree of the anesthetized dog. Introduced through the mouth or a trach-eotomy opening, the distal end is made to dilate and secure airtight fixation in the bronchus. Positive security and selectivity of the attachment, as well as simplicity of management, recommend the instrument.

Collateral Respiration in the Normal and Diseased Lung *
Until 1930 the pulmonary lobule was generally considered to be anatomically and functionally an end structure, to which the only access of air lay in the direct bronchial route. All available anatomical data from such pioneer workers as Joseph Marshall Flint, Macklin, and William Snow Miller argued against the possibility of air passing collaterally from one pulmonary lobule to an adjacent one ...
متن کاملA new mirror-cannula for laryngo-tracheo-bronchial anesthesia, medication, or instillation of opaque oils.
Frequently there comes to the laryngologist, bronchoscopist, and pulmonologist a desire to possess three hands. This is especially true during the process of anesthetizing the larynx, trachea, or bronchi. The usual procedure is to hold the mirror in one hand, the cannula in the other, using the patient or an assistant to make traction on the tongue. This means a total of three hands about the m...
متن کاملInspired gas relative humidity affects systemic to pulmonary bronchial blood flow in humans.
To our knowledge, the effects of humidity of inspired air on bronchial blood flow in humans are unknown. During total cardiopulmonary bypass, we measured systemic to pulmonary bronchial blood flow (Qbr[s-p]) which is the volume of blood accumulating into the left side of the heart in the absence of pulmonary and coronary flow. A cannula was introduced into the right upper pulmonary vein and adv...
متن کاملOne-Lung Ventilation in a Patient with a Fresh Tracheostomy – A Case Report
After drainage of cervical abscesses, the tracheostomy was performed. For one-lung ventilation a wire guided endobronchial blocker (Arndt Blocker) was electively placed through the cannula of the fresh tracheostomy. The patient was submitted to one lung ventilation for 5 hours. Some episodes of hypoxemia required intermittent two lungs ventilation under 100% FiO2. The surgery lasted eight hours...

OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the efficiency and feasibility of dilatable bands in selected patients. METHODS Two types of dilatable handmade bands were retrospectively evaluated and divided into two groups: main pulmonary artery bands and bilateral branch pulmonary artery bands (hybrid stage I palliation). Stepwise balloon angioplasty (BA) was performed, increasing the diameter either to co...
