A comparison of the disconnection technique with continuous bronchial suction for lung deflation when using the Arndt endobronchial blocker during video-assisted thoracoscopy: A randomised trial.

El-Tahan MR1.
European journal of anaesthesiology.Eur J Anaesthesiol.2015 Jun;32(6):411-7. doi: 10.1097/EJA.0000000000000194.
BACKGROUND: The use of the Arndt endobronchial blocker has not gained widespread acceptance during video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) because of its high cost and longer time to operative lung collapse especially in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The use of a ve

The implications of a tracheal bronchus on one-lung ventilation and fibreoptic bronchoscopy in a patient undergoing thoracic surgery: a case report.

Canadian journal of anaesthesia = Journal canadien d'anesthésie.Can J Anaesth.2015 Apr;62(4):399-402. doi: 10.1007/s12630-014-0293-8. Epub 2014 Dec 16.
PURPOSE: Due to its anatomical complexity, a tracheal bronchus has important clinical implications for one-lung ventilation (OLV). We present a case of successful OLV in a patient with a high a type I (i.e., high take-off) tracheal bronchus. This anomaly presented unusual fibreoptic bronchoscopic (F

PURPOSE: The use of an endobronchial blocker in conjunction with a supraglottic device in elective thoracic cases has never been studied. The aim of this study was to report the success rate and time to placement of the endobronchial blocker in anaesthetized patients with a laryngeal mask airway (LM

… Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of endoscopic bronchial occlusion (EBO) with endobronchial Watanabe spigots (EWSs), a type of silicone bronchial blocker, for managing prolonged pulmonary air leaks. … The spigot was grasped with forceps and inserted into the affected bronchus by using a flexible bronchoscope through an endotracheal or a tracheostomy tube. …
