Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants with intubation to right mainstem bronchus

    An expected average of 5minutes after intubation

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants with airway injury

    An expected average of 5 minutes after bilateral lung ventilation

Study Arms (2)

Neutral shape of bronchial tip

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Device: Neutral shape of bronchial tip

Bent shape of bronchial tip

EXPERIMENTAL
Device: Bent shape of bronchial tip

Interventions

Intubation is performed without transforming the shape of the bonchial tipof a double lumen tube.

Neutral shape of bronchial tip

Intubation is performed with the double lumen tube, which bronchial tip has been bent 45 degrees and maintained for 5 min.

Bent shape of bronchial tip
