What this study is about

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of bronchial blockers and double-lumen tubes in achieving one-lung ventilation in obese patients undergoing lung resections. The primary question it aims to answer is: • Is intraoperative hypoxia significantly different depending on the device used? Researchers will compare the use of bronchial blockers and double-lumen tubes to assess differences in efficacy and safety. Participants will not be required to perform any tasks.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.

SexAll

Healthy volunteersNot accepted

ConditionOne-lung Ventilation

Full registry criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 * Diagnostic or clinical suspicion of lung cancer * Lung resection surgery (lobectomy, segmentectomy or wedge resection) by VATS or thoracotomy, requiring one-lung ventilation. * Use of bronchial blocker or double-lumen tube for one-lung ventilation. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with evident anatomic alterations, in which double-lumen tubes may be contraindicated. * Emergency surgeries.

Treatments and study arms

One-Lung ventilation with Double-Lumen Tube

Device

To achieve the required one-lung ventilation during lung resection, patients will be managed with a double-lumen tube.

One-Lung Ventilation with Bronchial Blocker

Device

To achieve the required one-lung ventilation during lung resection, patients will be managed with a bronchial blocker.

Primary outcomes

HypoxiaIntraoperative (both from anesthetic induction to one-lung ventilation, and during one-lung ventilation)

While its definition is somewhat arbitrary, the investigators consider hypoxia as SpO₂ \< 90%, while maintaining FiO₂ = 1.0, in accordance to our hospital guidelines.
