Carbon nanotubes induce inflammation but decrease the production of reactive oxygen species in lung [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
With the rapid spread of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) applications, the respiratory toxicity of these compounds has attracted the attention of many scientists. Several studies have reported that after lung administration, CNTs could induce granuloma, fibrosis,

The efficacy and adverse effects of the Uniblocker and left-side double-lumen tube for one-lung ventilation under the guidance of chest CT.

open access: yesExperimental and Therapeutic Medicine, 2020
One-lung ventilation (OLV) is essential in numerous clinical procedures, in which the left-sided double-lumen tube (LDLT) is the most commonly used device. The application of bronchial blockers, including the Uniblocker or Arndt blocker, has increased in

Tracheobronchial Injury caused by Blunt Trauma: Case Report and Review of Literature [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Tracheobronchial injuries are rare cases requiring skillful airway management. We report a challenging case of tracheobronchial injury in a young adult who was run over by a tractor and was referred to us from a peripheral hospital with endotracheal ...

Efficacy of height-based formula to predict insertion depth of left-sided double lumen tube: A prospective observational study

open access: yesAnaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2020
The insertion depth of the left-sided double-lumen tube needs careful positioning and bronchoscopic confirmation. Several formulae based on body height have been used for estimating the optimal insertion depth of a left-sided double-lumen tube.

Fibrin glue injection method for complex fistula after laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2022
Background Pancreatic fistula is the most problematic complication in pancreatectomy. Although drainage can be used to relieve this complication, pancreatic surgeons often encounter refractory pancreatic fistula.

Double Lumen Endotracheal Tube for Percutaneous Tracheostomy [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Care, 2014
Percutaneous dilational tracheostomy is normally a bronchoscope-guided procedure. The insertion of a bronchoscope into an endotracheal tube (ETT) affects resistance, flow, and alveolar pressure. To improve airway management and ventilation during percutaneous tracheostomy, we developed a double lumen endotracheal tube (DLET).

Microlaryngeal Tube-assisted Airway Rescue Following Intraoperative Haemorrhage during Right Bilobectomy for Bronchial Carcinoid - A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Onco-Anaesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine
A 29-year-old female (165 cm, 68 kg) with a 4.9 cm × 3.2 cm × 3.5 cm carcinoid tumour in the right intermediate bronchus underwent right bilobectomy. Despite pre-operative computed tomography showing anatomical distortion warranting fibre-optic guidance,

Sinusoidal shaped hollow fibers for enhanced mass transfer

open access: yes, 2017
Inducing secondary flows and vortices is known to enhance mass transport. They can be imposed by structured flow channels for instance. In particular, these vortices reduce fouling and concentration polarization.

Airway rupture from double-lumen tubes

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 1999
A DOUBLE-CUFFED double-lumen endobronchial tube (DLT) was used for the first time during thoracic surgery almost 50 years ago to isolate and selectively ventilate the lungs. The benefits of DLTs in terms of improved surgical exposure mad their ability to isolate and protect the lungs during thoracic operations are now widely recognized.

Effective use of a supraglottic airway (i-gel™) during emergence from anesthesia in a patient with multiple giant bullae

open access: yesJA Clinical Reports
Background Anesthetic management of a patient with multiple giant bullae is generally difficult due to an increased risk of respiratory complications, and there is no consensus regarding safe extubation methods.
