One Lung Ventilation

Bringing visualization to the next level

Visualization for good clinical practice in One Lung Ventilation

Proper placement and positioning of a double lumen tube (DLT) or an endobronchial blocker (EBB) may be challenging. Initial malposition or subsequent dislodgment of the tube is not uncommon, and visual confirmation of the correct position is recommended as good clinical practice.

Visualization during One Lung Ventilation increases patient safety

The Ambu portfolio for One Lung Ventilation (OLV) streamlines the  process of placing double lumen tubes and bronchial blockers because you have visual control throughout the entire  procedure.

 

A streamlined way to perform One Lung Ventilation

The VivaSight-DL with integrated high-resolution camera makes placement of the double lumen tube fast and effective. Continuous visual monitoring throughout the procedure provides a clinical benefit and increases patient safety. VivaSight-DL can be used for left and right-sided thoracic surgical procedures exactly like any other left-sided DLT.

Malpositioning and dislocation can be immediately detected and corrected with the real-time video image transmitted to the Ambu® aView™ monitor.

The VivaSight portfolio also includes VivaSight-SL, a single lumen tube with integrated camera, together with the endobronchial blocker, VivaSight-EB.

High-resolution monitor

The aScope 4 Broncho and VivaSight endoscopes both connect to the Ambu® aView™ monitor, which is operational in seconds and intuitive to use.
