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

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]
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 ...

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.

Double Lumen Endotracheal Tube for Percutaneous Tracheostomy [PDF]
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).

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
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
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.

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.
