Italian study maps how doctors place critical breathing tubes in surgery

NCT ID NCT02361983

Summary

This study aimed to understand the best practices for placing special breathing tubes during lung surgery. Researchers observed over 2,200 patients in Italy to see how quickly and accurately doctors could position these tubes and how well they worked to collapse one lung for surgery. The goal was to gather knowledge to improve safety and efficiency, not to test a new treatment.
