Double Lumen Tube ( DLT)

Double Lumen Tubes (DLTs) are the most commonly used tubes to provide independent ventilation for each lung.
A DLT is made up of two small-lumen endotracheal tubes of unequal length fixed side by side. The shorter tube ends in the trachea while the longer one is placed in either the left or right bronchus in order to selectively ventilate the left or right lung respectively.

Product Description

Description of Double Lumen Endotracheal Tube

Double Lumen Endotracheal Tube as also called Double-lumen Endobronchial Tube, or DLT. The DLT is an endotracheal tube designed to isolate the lungs anatomically and physiologically. Double-lumen tubes (DLTs) are the most commonly used tubes to provide independent ventilation for each lung. A DLT is made up of two small-lumen endotracheal tubes of unequal length fixed side by side. The shorter tube ends in the trachea, and the longer one is placed in either the left or right bronchus to selectively ventilate the left or right lung separately.

There is one main difference between the design of the right and left-sided dual-lumen tubes.

The right-sided tube has a weirdly shaped "eccentric" cuffed to prevent the occlusion of the right upper lobe bronchus.

The left-sided tube has a standard straight cuff.
