“…This technique is generally limited, therefore, to children over the age of 1 year. If the indwelling ETT is too small to accommodate the smallest available fibreoptic bronchoscope and endobronchial catheter, this new catheter may be placed outside the ETT using a technique described previously (21).…”

During the past decade, the use of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has dramatically increased in children as well as adults. Although VATS can be performed while both lungs are being ventilated, single-lung ventilation (SLV) is desirable during VATS. In addition, anaesthesiologists are performing (and paediatric surgeons are requesting) SLV more frequently for open thoracotomies in infants and children.

As video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery has become more common in paediatric patients, the use of single lung ventilation in children has also increased. Single lung ventilation in young children is performed by either advancing a tracheal tube into the mainstem bronchus opposite the side of surgery or by positioning a bronchial blocker into the mainstem bronchus on the operative side. Techniques for placing a variety of bronchial blockers outside the tracheal tube have been described. We describe a technique for placement of a new bronchial blocker through an indwelling tracheal tube using a multiport adaptor and a fibreoptic bronchoscope.

“…Therefore, some practitioners prefer to use a balloon‐tipped, end‐hole catheter for SLV. This type of catheter may be inserted into the mainstem or segmental bronchus and allows for administration of suction, oxygen and continuous airway pressure through the catheter lumen (8,13–16). The latter allows oxygen delivery to perfused alveoli, resulting in reduced intrapulmonary shunting and improved oxygenation.…”
