Trial Outcomes & Findings for Displacement Between PVC and Silicon DLT (NCT NCT02691468)

NCT ID: NCT02691468

Last Updated: 2021-08-10

Results Overview

The tracheal distance was defined as the distance between the distal tip of the tracheal lumen and tracheal carina whereas the bronchial distance was defined as that between the bronchial carina and distal tip of endobronchial lumen. The displacement of DLT was determined by changes in tracheal and bronchial distances, obtained by subtracting supine measurements from lateral measurements and subtracting measurements at start of surgery from measurements at the end of surgery, respectively. Clinically significant displacement was defined when the DLT was deviated by more than 10 mm from the initial correct position, regardless of the direction of displacement.

Participant Flow

One hundred and eight adult patients, aged between 18 and 75 years, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status 1 \~ 3 scheduled for elective thoracic surgery were enrolled.

Patients with emergency surgery, difficult intubation, poor lung function to accomplish one-lung ventilation (OLV) during surgery were excluded.

Measure
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Double Lumen Tube (DLT)
After the induction of general anesthesia, a left sided PVC DLT was placed by the anesthesiologist using direct laryngoscopy. Tube position was confirmed with fiberotic bronchoscope. The first set of measurements tracheal distance(from tracheal carina to proximal tip of DLT) and bronchial distance(from bronchial carina to distal tip of DLT) measured by bronchoscope is taken in supine position . The second set of measurements is taken in lateral position after position change. The displacement of PVC DLT is calculated from difference in tracheal distance between supine and lateral position. PVC DLT: PVC DLT is type of double lumen tube that is composed of polyvinlyl chloride.
Silicon Double Lumen Tube (DLT)
After the induction of general anesthesia, a left sided silicon DLT was placed by the anesthesiologist using direct laryngoscopy. Tube position was confirmed with fiberotic bronchoscope. The first set of measurements tracheal distance(from tracheal carina to proximal tip of DLT) and bronchial distance(from bronchial carina to distal tip of DLT) measured by bronchoscope is taken in supine position .

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: from supine to lateral decubitus position during surgery

The tracheal distance was defined as the distance between the distal tip of the tracheal lumen and tracheal carina whereas the bronchial distance was defined as that between the bronchial carina and distal tip of endobronchial lumen. The displacement of DLT was determined by changes in tracheal and bronchial distances, obtained by subtracting supine measurements from lateral measurements and subtracting measurements at start of surgery from measurements at the end of surgery, respectively. Clinically significant displacement was defined when the DLT was deviated by more than 10 mm from the initial correct position, regardless of the direction of displacement.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: from supine to lateral decubitus position

The displacement of DLT was determined by changes in tracheal and bronchial distances, obtained by subtracting supine measurements from lateral measurements and subtracting measurements at start of surgery from measurements at the end of surgery, respectively.
