A study to find out whether monitoring of pressure of air within balloon like apparatus present at the end of tube can detect the displacement of tube during surgeries on lungs.

A prospective interventional study to detect the efficacy of bronchial cuff pressure monitoring to detect the displacement of lung isolation device during elective thoracic surgeries.

Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: All adult ( >18 years) patients undergoing thoracic surgeries requiring lung isolation.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Pediatric patients Emergency surgeries Patients with known anatomical anomaly (known anatomical variation/ endobronchial mass/ Broncho pleural fistula) in trachea and bronchus. Patients with risk of contamination (blood/ secretions/pus) across the lungs. E.g. Patients with hemoptysis, infective lung conditions communicating with bronchus etc. Patients with lung isolation devicesplaced in right main bronchus.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Accuracy of bronchial cuff pressure monitoring in detection of displacement of lung isolation deviceTimepoint: All assessment would be done only intra-operatively with no post operative follow up

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Incidence of intraoperative displacement of lung isolation deviceTimepoint: Continous intra-operative monitoring of bronchial cuff pressures would be done if there is a drop in oxygen saturation by 4 or less than 90% or loss of lung isolation or increase in peak airway pressure more than 35 cm of water or loss or alteration in capnograph suggestive of obstruction of airway or leak across the cuff bronchoscopy would be done to confirm any displacement of tube
