A bench study on the prevention of lung-to-lung aspiration with double-lumen endobronchial tubes and bronchial blockers
Abstract Effective lung isolation prevents lung-to-lung aspiration during thoracotomy for the management of hemoptysis. Double-lumen endobronchial tubes (DLT) and bronchial blockers are commonly used for lung separation during thoracic surgery. In this study, the fluid-sealing characteristics of the...
