Conditions

Interventions
Behavioral: Disengage the breathing circuit
Registration Number
NCT06182371
Lead Sponsor
Shandong Provincial Hospital
Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the incidence of double-lumen endobronchial tube displacement in patients undergoing thoracic surgery with a change in position, compared with double-lumen endobronchial tube malposition in chest surgery patients with a fixed breathing circuit. The study is to investigate: whether detaching the breathing circuit in patients undergoing thoracic surgery would reduce the rate of double-lumen endobronchial tube malposition, the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications, and improve patient outcomes.

Participants will be randomly divided into a disconnected breathing circuit group and a breathing circuit connected group and after entering the operating room, the intravenous access will be opened, and blood pressure, heart rate, electrocardiogram, oxygen saturation, arterial pressure, and end-expiratory carbon dioxide will be monitored. Anesthesia induction will be performed by an anesthesiologist, and then the double-lumen endobronchial tube will be inserted under laryngoscopic guidance. Will the catheter be delivered to the expected depth, the double-lumen endobronchial tube will be connected to the anesthesia machine for mechanical ventilation.

Researchers will compare the malposition rate of the double-lumen endobronchial tube when the patient transitions from the supine to lateral decubitus position, the effect of single-lung ventilation, oxygen saturation at 5 and 10 minutes after single-lung ventilation, and postoperative recovery time.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Malposition rate of a double-lumen endobronchial tubeImmediately after a change in body position

Double-lumen endobronchial tube malposition is more than 5 mm away from the optimal position of the catheter. Severe malposition is the inability to see the upper left or lower left bronchial opening in the left common bronchi: the right upper lobe bronchial opening cannot be seen clearly in the right common bronchi; or bronchial cuffs more than 50% in the trachea.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
PACU length of stayThe time from the transfer to the PACU to the transfer out to ward, an average of an hour

The patient is awake and conscious

Effects of lung collapse5 and 10 minutes after the pleura opens

If the lung on the operative side is completely atrophied and the surgical field is satisfied, it indicates that the degree of lung atrophy is good. The surgeon will score the quality of lung collapse using a four-point ordinal scale (1= extremelypoor-no collapse of lung; 2= poor-partial collapse of lung with interference with surgical exposure; 3= good-total collapse, but the lung still had some residual air; and 4= excellent-complete collapse of lung with perfect surgical exposure).

Blood oxygen saturation1 minute and 5 minutes after the change of position;1 minute, 5 minutes and 10 minutes after single-lung ventilation

An oxygen saturation below 94% is considered oxygen insufficiency
