Selective Bronchial Tube Clinical Trial
Official title:
Selective Bronchial Intubation (SBI) at Marie Lannelongue Hospital (HML) : Epidemiology of Expected and Unexpected Difficult Intubations.
Difficult orotracheal intubation carries a risk of hemodynamic collapse, neurological
sequelae secondary to cerebral anoxia or death. Anesthetic scores and predictive indices are
used to predict difficulties and avoid complications for usual tracheal intubation. However,
existing indices are not adapted to selective bronchial intubations.
The aim of the study is to determine the incidence of unexpected difficult SBI using
conventional screening tests. It is a prospective descriptive epidemiological monocentric
study comparing two groups of patients (selective vs. non selective intubations).
