Official Title: Effect of Lateral Positioning on Bronchial Cuff Pressure of Left-sided Double-lumen Endotracheal Tube During Thoracic Surgery: a Prospective Observational Study

Study ID: NCT03656406

Study Description

Brief Summary: The investigators evaluate the effect of postural change on the bronchial cuff pressure (BCP) of double-lumen endotracheal tube (DLT) in patients undergoing thoracic surgery, by observing the pressure of the bronchial cuff before and after lateral decubitus positioning.

Detailed Description: It is essential to maintain proper cuff pressure in the endotracheal tube (ETT) when placing the ETT in the trachea in patients undergoing general anesthesia. Most of the literature recommend maintaining a pressure of 20-30 cmH2O to prevent cuff-related complications such as micro-aspiration or airway trauma. Proper pressure is also important for DLTs used in thoracic surgery. Furthermore, the cuff pressure of the ETT can change during the patient's positional changes. All things considered, we hypothesized that the change from supine to lateral decubitus position, which is essential for thoracic surgery would affect the BCP of the DLT.
