The Double‑Lumen Endobronchial Tube

By Nora Yang | Updated: 2026-09-08
 

1This disposable double lumen endobronchial tube is specially designed for thoracic anesthesia, one-lung ventilation and lung isolation. It is widely used in operating rooms, ICUs and other medical settings.
 

Manufactured from medical PVC with excellent biocompatibility, paired with high-volume low-pressure cuff, the product ensures reliable sealing while minimizing damage to airway mucosa. The dual-lumen structure with color-coded design enables intuitive and convenient operation, making it an ideal medical consumable for clinical lung isolation surgeries.

>>key components:

  • DLT Main Tube Body: Dual‑lumen extruded tube, one for tracheal ventilation and one for bronchial ventilation. Marked with depth graduation markers for accurate insertion depth. Bevel‑cut tip helps atraumatic intubation.
  • Bronchial Balloon & Tracheal Balloon: Two separate inflatable cuffs are equipped: the bronchial cuff seals the target bronchus for isolated lung ventilation while the tracheal cuff seals the trachea to prevent air leakage and aspiration, with each cuff connected to an individual inflation pilot balloon and valve for pressure monitoring.
  • DLT Y‑Connector Y: Connects the two lumens of double‑lumen tube to anesthesia breathing circuit. Enables switching between one‑lung ventilation and two‑lung ventilation.
  • DLT Suction Catheter DLT: Insert through side port of Y‑connector. Suction sputum and airway secretions without interrupting ventilation, keeps airway patency during surgery.
  • Pilot Balloons & Inflation Valves: Independent pilot balloons for tracheal and bronchial cuffs. Visual feedback for cuff inflation status; syringe connects to valve to inflate/deflate cuffs.
  • Stylet: Pre‑formed metal stylet, assists smooth, correct placement of DLT during intubation.

 

>>INSTRUCTION FOR USE:

  • Select proper FR size for patient. Inspect cuffs for integrity before use.
  • Insert tube under laryngoscopy. Confirm correct positioning of tracheal and bronchial lumens.
  • Inflate bronchial and tracheal cuffs appropriately. Connect Y‑connector to anesthesia breathing circuit.
  • Switch between one‑lung and two‑lung ventilation via valves on Y‑connector.
  • For suction or bronchoscopy: open side port of Y‑connector, insert dedicated suction catheter or bronchoscope, no need to disconnect ventilation.
  • Upon completion of procedure, clear airway secretions, deflate cuffs and remove the tube.
