Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
correlation between left-sided double lumen endobronchial tube depth and height gender tracheal length After induction of anesthesia and positioning the patients in lateral decubitus DLT depth
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
formulate a formula to estimate the optimal insertion depth of left-sided double lumen endobronchial tube based on the patient s characteristics After induction of anesthesia and positioning the patients in lateral decubitus DLT depth,compare the new predicted left-sided double lumen endobronchial tube depth formula with the preexisting formulae After induction of anesthesia and positioning the patients in lateral decubitus DLT depth
