Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The first objective of this study was to evaluate the positioning time and the malpositioning rate of DLTs and BBs, the degree of difficulty perceived in device positioning, the use of bronchoscopy (BRO), and the quality of lung collapse achieved during OLV.
A prospective observational study was designed. To check the optimal DLT (Broncho-Cath Covidien, Ireland, Dublin, Teleflex Medical, Athlone, Irelanad) and/or BB (Uniblocker, Phycon, Fuji, Japan Arndt Cohen Cook, Australia), placement a fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB) was used. The lung collapse was assessed by surgeons.
Time from laringoscopy to the correct placement of the device, confirmed with FOB, was checked.
Data were analyzed with Student't Test and Chi-square test; p value \< 0.05 was considered to be significant.
