NCT02429414

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn how often a fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB -- also known as a fiberoptic scope procedure) needs to be used with a video double lumen tube (VDLT) during surgeries that require lung isolation. On this study, you will have one of 2 types of commonly-used breathing tubes used, either a VDLT or a non-video double lumen tube (called a non-video DLT). An FOB may or may not be performed, as described below. The level of effectiveness of the VDLT and non-video DLT will be compared.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Fiberoptic Use During Surgeries Requiring Lung Isolation

    The rate of FOB use for the VDLT arm and the Double-Lumenendobronchial Tubes (DLT) arm was calculated. The Fisher's exact test or chi-square test was used to evaluate the association between 2 categorical variables. Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to evaluate the difference in a continuous variable. Rate of fiberoptic use with the Video Double-Lumen Tube (VDLT) during surgeries requiring lung isolation and to compare to the rate of Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy (FOB) use with the conventional DLT.

    During surgery (from induction to extubation), an average of 1 hour

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Quality of View Provided by the VDLT (Embedded Camera) vs. DLT (FOB) Using Grading System

    During surgery (from induction to extubation), an average of 1 hour

  • Number of Participants in Which Anesthesiologist Was Able to Forewarn/ Anticipate Dislodging of Endobronchial Cuff

    1 Day

  • Dislodgement During Positioning and Surgery

    During positioning, up to 30 minutes and during surgery (from induction to extubation), up to 1 hour

Study Arms (2)

Non-Video Double Lumen Tube (DLT) Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants receive a non-video DLT for lung isolation before surgery. Once non-video DLT is in correct place, its final position before surgery checked with a fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB).

Device: Non-Video Double Lumen Tube (DLT)Procedure: Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy (FOB)

Video Double Lumen Tube (VDLT) Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants receive a VDLT for lung isolation before surgery. Once VDLT is in correct place, its final position before surgery checked with the camera inside the tube.

Device: Video Double Lumen Tube (VDLT)

Interventions

Participant receives non-video double lumen tube (DLT) placement before surgery.

Also known as: DLT
Non-Video Double Lumen Tube (DLT) Group

Fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) performed to check placement of non-video DLT.

Also known as: FOB
Non-Video Double Lumen Tube (DLT) Group

Participant receives video double lumen tube (VDLT) placement before surgery.

Also known as: VDLT
Video Double Lumen Tube (VDLT) Group
