| Abstract | Double-lumen endobronchial tube (DLT) intubation is essential for one-lung ventilation during thoracic surgery [1]. However, if the DLT is displaced, it may cause difficulties in maintaining one-lung ventilation and operation procedures. Even though the tube may be positioned correctly after intubation, DLT displacement has been reported during lateral position change [2]. Neck movement is known to influence DLT position [3]. Therefore, methods to minimize neck movement during position changes are recommended [4]. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) DLTs are hard, so, depending on the extent of neck movement, there may be significant DLT movement. |
