Ambu® VivaSight™ 2 DLT

A safe and cost-effective way to perform One Lung Ventilation

​VivaSight 2 DLT is a sterile, single-use double lumen endobronchial tube used to isolate the left or right lung of a patient in One Lung Ventilation (OLV) procedures.

Increases patient safety

VivaSight 2 DLT is similar in design to conventional double lumen tubes, but it has a built-in video camera that connects to an Ambu monitor.

Continuous visualization enables you to follow tube placement and patient airway in real time throughout the entire OLV procedure. This allows you to immediately detect and correct malpositioning and dislocation of the DLT.

Improves procedure workflow

Continuous visualization of the tube and patient airway can positively affect patient management and procedure workflow because it:

• Enables faster intubation time than with conventional DLTs
• Facilitates correct tube placement 
• Significantly reduces the need to use a bronchoscope
• Facilitates immediate detection and correction of tube dislodgement

A cost-effective alternative for OLV

A health-economic study (Larsen et al) indicates that using a DLT with an integrated video camera offers a cost-effective alternative for OLV procedures. 

The study compared the costs and effects of a conventional DLT used in combination with a reusable bronchoscope to video-enabled DLT (VivaSight) alone.
