Duble Lumen Intubation

Intrabronal intubation is one of the basic methods of airway protection during cardiac surgery. The use of double-lumen tubes in the implementation of a standard method based on macintosh laryngoscope may cause the prolongation of the procedure especially in the case of difficult airways. The aim of the study was to match the effectiveness of endotracheal intubation using a standard Macontosh laryngskop and a normal double-lumen tube versus the ETView DL tube.

Treatment and study plan

Standard double-lumen tube

Device

intubation using standard double-lumen tube with Macintosh laryngoscope

Double-Lumen Tube Vivasight-DL

Device

intubation using Double-Lumen Video Tube Vivasight-DL with Macintosh laryngoscope

Primary outcomes

  1. intubation time

    Time frame: 1 day

    from taking of the intubation device to successful intubation

Secondary outcomes

  1. time to visualize the glottis

    Time frame: 1 day

    time defined as the time from taking laryngoscope in hand until you obtain visualize the glottis

  2. success of the first intubation trial

    Time frame: 1 day

    effectiveness of the first attempt of intubation by participants using four intubation devices

  3. overall success rate

    Time frame: 1 day

    effectiveness measured during a maximum of three intubation attempts, confirmed by a single lung ventilation test

  4. the degree of visibility of the glottis

    Time frame: 1 day

    The POGO score describes how much glottic opening is visible. A POGO score of 100% indicates visualization of the entire glottic opening from the anterior commissure of the vocal cords to the interarytenoid notch. A POGO score of 0% corresponds with no visualization of laryngeal structures.

  5. Cormack - Lehane grade

    Time frame: 1 day

    self-reported percentage the vocal cord visualization using the Cormack-Lehane grading (grade 1-4)

  6. ease of use

    Time frame: 1 day

    To access subjective opinions about the difficulty of the each intubation method, participants were asked to give a rating on a visual analogue scale (VAS) with a score from 1 (extremely easy) to 100 (extremely difficult).
