Abstract

Abstarct: BACKGROUND: The optimal positioned double-lumen endotracheal tubes (DLT) is crucial in thoracic surgery requiring lung isolation. This study aims to compare the accuracy and complication rates of DLT placement using videolaryngoscopy (VL) versus conventional direct laryngoscopy (DL).

Methods: This retrospective single-center study included 89 patients who underwent thoracic surgery with DLT placement between July 2023 and May 2024. Patients were divided into two groups: VL (n = 45) and DL (n = 44). Patient characteristics, intubation times, malposition rates, and complications were recorded. DLT position was confirmed using fiberoptic bronchoscopy.

Results: The incidence of DLT malposition was significantly lower in the VL group (13.3%) compared to the DL group (31.8%) (p = 0.037). The overall complication rate was also lower in the VL group (4.4%) compared to the DL group (11.4%) (p = 0.024). The mean time from anesthesia induction to the first incision was shorter in the VL group (25.2 ± 6.1 min) than in the DL group (28.3 ± 6.5 min) (p = 0.02).

Conclusions: VL significantly reduces the incidence of DLT malposition and associated complications in thoracic surgery compared to DL. The improved visualization and multiple blade options of the C-MAC videolaryngoscopy set likely contribute to these findings. Further research is warranted to confirm these results in larger, multicenter studies.

期刊介绍： Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery is an open access journal that encompasses all aspects of research in the field of Cardiology, and Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery. The journal publishes original scientific research documenting clinical and experimental advances in cardiac, vascular and thoracic surgery, and related fields. Topics of interest include surgical techniques, survival rates, surgical complications and their outcomes; along with basic sciences, pediatric conditions, transplantations and clinical trials. Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery is of interest to cardiothoracic and vascular surgeons, cardiothoracic anaesthesiologists, cardiologists, chest physicians, and allied health professionals.
