چکیده

Flexible suction catheters were passed through the endotracheal tubes of infants undergoing mechanical ventilation, just before chest radiographic examination for clinical purposes. With the head straight, 7 of 10 straight catheters entered the right main bronchus but with the head turned, 17 of 20 straight catheters and 19 of 20 curved tip catheters entered the contralateral bronchus.

An update on bronchial blockers during lung separation techniques in adults.

Techniques for one-lung ventilation (OLV) can be accomplished in two ways: The first involves the use of a double-lumen endotracheal tube (DLT). The second involves blockade of a mainstem bronchus (bronchial blockers). Bronchial blockade technology is on the rise, and in some specific clinical situations (e.g., management of the difficult airway during OLV or selective lobar blockade) it can of...

Effects of Suctioning on Mucociliary

We previously have shown that the mucosa of the airways is injured after suctioning, but the effect of this damage on mucus transport has not been systematically investigated. We measured bronchial mucus velocity of conscious sheep after tracheostomy and bronchial mucus velocity after suctioning the bronchi with three different catheters (Bard side end-hole, Aero-Flo, and TnFlo catheters). Trac...

A retrospective review of tracheal suction at birth in neonates with meconium aspiration syndrome.

A retrospective study of 54 neonates with Meconium Aspiration Syndrome (MAS) admitted to the Paediatric ICU Penang General Hospital from January 1989-December 1990 was carried out to determine if suction of the trachea at birth was performed in this group of patients. 63% were inborn and 27% outborn. The mean birth weight was 3.2 kg, 83% were ventilated, mean duration of ventilation was five da...

Selective tracheobronchial aspiration.

Eighty attempts at placing suction catheters in the left main bronchus were analysed by studying chest radiographs. When angled catheters were used via a tracheostomy tube the success rate was 75%; the rate fell to 15% when straight tubes were used through an orotracheal tube. Assessment and control of the tube length was found to be important to avoid kinking and subsequent obstruction of the ...
