About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of bronchial blockers and double-lumen tubes in achieving one-lung ventilation in obese patients undergoing lung resections. The primary question it aims to answer is:
• Is intraoperative hypoxia significantly different depending on the device used?
Researchers will compare the use of bronchial blockers and double-lumen tubes to assess differences in efficacy and safety.
Participants will not be required to perform any tasks.
Eligibility criteria
