“…In Brazil, there have been no studies describing complications of video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy; however, a study conducted at the Santa Casa Hospital Complex in Porto Alegre, located in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, describes complications related to traditional lobectomy in lung donors. 25 In that study, 31.25% of the patients had one or more complications, the most common being pleural effusion. 25 Another study conducted in the same state, also regarding lobectomy via thoracotomy, reported a complication rate of 44%, in addition to an intraoperative mortality rate of 2.9%.…”

“…Care measures such as: undertaking oral hygiene with oral antiseptic, maintaining the bed head elevated at 30°, checking the pressure of the cuff and Endotracheal tube (ETT) aspiration with a closed system are in accordance with the Brazilian National Health Surveillance Agency's manual of respiratory tract infections and with a convergent-assistential qualitative study which presents, respectively, oral hygiene care with chlorhexidine 0.12%, elevation of the bed head between 30-45º, pressure of the cuff between 20-30 cm H 2 O; and care with aspiration of the secretions ( 19 ) . Such care measures for prevention of VAP are essential in order to avoid respiratory infections and, consequently, the acute rejection of the graft ( 15 , 20 - 21 ) .…”
