Conditions

one-lung ventilation

Interventions

Traditionally, single lung ventilation is obtained with a double lumen tube (DLT). In our institution a polyvinyl DLT (Broncho-cath, Mallinckrodt,) without carinal hook, is used. This type of tube e

Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 99 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: ASA physical status 1-3 patients requiring a left sided DLT for single lung ventilation

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Contraindications are lesions along the path of the left sided dubble lumen tube or the EZB, tracheal or mainstem bronchial stenosis and distorted carinal anatomy, anticipated difficult intubation (Mallampatti score >= 3) and history or presence of tracheostoma. Excluded are patients who require absolute lung separation or sleeve resection of mainstem bronchus.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The main study parameter is the incidence of malposition of a left sided DLT or the EZB. There are four time points were malposition are considered: - Malposition detected by fiber optic bronchoscopy after blind insertion of the device - Malposition detected by fiber optic bronchoscopy or ausculation after inflation of the bronchial cuff of the DLT or the balloon of the EZB (left and right) - Malposition detected by fiber optic bronchoscopy or auscultation after repositioning the patient to lateral decubitus position (after inflation of the bronchial cuff of the DLT or the balloon of the EZB (left and right)) - Malposition detected by fiber optic bronchoscopy or visual inspection of the lung by the surgeon during surgery (Dislocation of the device)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary study parameters are the ease and duration of insertion, the ease and duration of positioning and the quality and the duration of lung deflation. The ease of insertion of the devices is qualitative variable: 1= excellent, 2= good, 3=average, 4=poor. If the insertion excellent, it can be explained why. The quality of lung deflation is a qualitative variable, judged by the surgeon: 1= excellent, 2= good, 3=average, 4=poor. If the lung deflation is not excellent it can be explained why. Other secondary parameters are the incidence of postoperative complains of sore throat and hoarseness, and a description of damage to laryngeal, tracheal and bronchial structures.
