A novel technique for endobronchial blocker placement for one-lung ventilation in children under 2 years

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica Jun 14, 2018

Guo X, et al. - Researchers assessed the outcomes of a novel technique ie, intraluminal calculated distance for endobronchial blocker placement (ICEB) as well as its efficacy in attenuating the number of hypoxemia episodes during blocker placement relative to extraluminal blocker placement for one-lung ventilation in children under the age of 2 years. Data analysis comprised comparison the two groups (ICEB technique vs extraluminal blocker placement) with respect to the success rate of blocker placement, quality of lung deflation, number of hypoxemia episodes, blocker dislodgement, and successful reposition after dislodgement. They found that lung isolation and reduced hypoxemia episodes during blocker placement could be achieved, in a feasible manner, via intraluminal calculated distance for endobronchial blocker placement.
