How to use a Double Lumen Endotracheal Tube

This was something that confused the junk out of me when I was first presented with it, and once it made sense, I wanted to share it so others would understand it the same way. Double lumen endotracheal tubes are commonplace in thoracic surgery because they allow us to isolate the lung the surgeon is working on and prevent inflation and deflation. In this video I explain how inflating each of the cuffs as well as where to clamp allows for single lung ventilation!

Take care of the terms you use. Esophagus vs trachea are for two different uses and passages.

Also when ventilating 1 Lung, I am assuming you would cut Tv in half (if in VC) but as far as O2 levels, would you allow for higher FiO2 levels?

How go you decide the size of the DLT?

Didn't understand, when we are ventilating one lung and leaving other without ventilation, the othe lung without ventilation, will it not collapse and become dead altogether?

Trachea not esophagus you’re going to cause aspiration. ETC tube ( esophageal tracheal combo tube) is an option for pre-hospital emergency airway management. It doesn’t matter if it goes to esophageal or the trachea but it needs to be replaced with an endotracheal tube ASAP.
