Summary

Video assisted thoracic surgery utilizes small instruments to perform complicated thoracic surgeries. This minimally invasive technique leaves small wounds thus facilitate recovery. Traditionally, thoracic surgery required general anesthesia with double lumen endobronchial tube to facilitate one-lung ventilation. However, as anesthesia techniques improve, video assisted thoracic surgery can be achieved with minimal sedation and without intubation. Thoracic surgeries involve excision of lung tissue thus impair post-operative lung function, putting patients at high risk of cardiopulmonary complications. Non-intubate thoracic surgeries can avoid this complication by avoiding general anesthesia and intubation.

Transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilator exchange offers 30-50 L/min oxygen via nasal cannula, thus provide safe and comfortable way of oxygen supplementation. It is useful in intravenous sedated patients since they are prone to hypoxia from respiratory suppression and upper airway obstruction.

This study is a matched case-control study to compare the efficacy and safety of Transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilator exchange in non-intubated thoracic surgery versus double lumen endobronchial tube intubated general anesthesia.
