Effect of Continuous Intra-airway Monitoring Under Visible Double-lumen Bronchial Catheter on Postoperative Complications of Lung Surgery

Fujian Medical University Union Hospital376 enrolled

Overview

The incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after thoracic surgery is as high as 30-50% \[1-6\], which is the main cause of postoperative morbidity, death and prolonged hospital stay. Optimization of risk factors in PPCs procedures is the focus of current research. Double lumen bronchial tube (DLT) is a commonly used lung isolation method for adult patients. It has the advantages of good lung isolation effect, sufficient exposure of the surgical field and easy to attract secretions in the airway. However, there are still some deficiencies in clinical precise positioning, long-term continuous detection during operation, early detection of catheter displacement and other emergencies. Continuous intra-airway monitoring is the main advantage of visual double-lumen bronchial catheter. It can quickly and easily determine the position of the catheter and quickly adjust the displacement, and timely and effectively clean up the secretion in the airway, which is conducive to the analysis and treatment of intraoperative hypoxemia. Whether these potential advantages can reduce the incidence of PPCs deserves our in-depth discussion. The research group randomly divided the patients who were scheduled to undergo thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer in the Union Hospital affiliated to Fujian Medical University into the test group (lung isolation with visible double-lumen bronchial catheter, continuous intra-airway monitoring and intervention) and the control group: (Pulmonary isolation was performed with visual double-lumen bronchial catheter, and only intra-airway video was performed without monitoring. The effect of continuous intra-airway monitoring under visual double-lumen bronchial catheter on postoperative complications of lung surgery was evaluated by Melbourne evaluation scale.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Incidence of pulmonary complications

Evaluation of the incidence of pulmonary complications three days after surgery by the Melbourne Assessment Scale Melbourne Group Scale（Minimum value 0 points ；Max 8 points 1. Oral temperature \> 38°C; 2. White blood cell count \> 11.2×10\^12/L or use respiratory antibiotics (except prophylactic antibiotics); 3. Pneumonia or pulmonary infection diagnosed by the treating doctor; 4. Chest X-ray examination suggested atelectasis or consolidation; 5. Purulent sputum (yellow/green) with characteristics different from those before operation; 6. Sputum microbiological examination was positive; 7. Oxygen saturation of finger pulse \< 90% under suction condition; 8. Readmission or ICU stay \> 36h due to respiratory problems If 4 or more of the above 8 items are satisfied, the subject is considered to have developed pulmonary complications.

Time frame: 3 days after operation
