Official title
A Comparison of Positional Stability: the EZ-blocker Versus Left Sided Double Lumen Tube in Adult Patients for Thoracic Surgery
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the positional stability and quality of lung isolation provided by the EZ-blocker compared to a DLT for both right and left sided thoracic surgery. An additional objective will be to assess time to placement of both devices and other significant clinical differences between these two approaches to placement of the bronchial blocker (BB) including airway injury and post-operatives sore throat, post-operative hoarseness, Additionally we would like to examine the preoperative high resolution CT imaging data to determine if there are anatomic landmarks that may potentially inform the appropriateness or inappropriateness of choosing an EZ-blocker or left sided DLT.
