Clamping the Double Lumen Tube : A Novel Technique to Optimize One-Lung Ventilation
This clinical trial investigates a novel technique for optimizing one-lung ventilation during thoracic surgery using a double-lumen tube (DLT). The study compares the efficacy of occluding the non-ventilated lung's lumen against the traditional method of leaving it open to ambient air. Conducted by Laval University, the trial enrolled 30 patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS).
