Bronchial suction does not facilitate lung collapse when using a double-lumen tube during video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery: A randomized controlled trial

Quan X, et al. - This investigation was pursued to investigate if bronchial suction could also facilitate lung collapse when using a double-lumen tube (DLT).
