The Need and the Effectiveness of Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy for Better Lung Collapse in Vedio-assisted Thoracic Operations Using Endobronchial Blockers
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating conventional and auscultation for Neoplasms, Pulmonary and Thoracic Diseases. Completed, enrolled 112 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The need of fiberoptic bronchoscopy for placing an endobronchial blocker. Endobronchial blockers (EBB) have been presented effective and safe alternative for lung separation in vedio-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) operations. In this study, the investigators will randomize the patients receiving VATS operation with EBB into two groups: one group will receive the conventional bronchoscopic guided EBBs placement, the other group receive two step procedure without confirmation by fiberoptic bronchoscopy.
