Transcript

This research presents a step-by-step protocol detailing the execution of non-intubated video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. The protocol of NIVATS is based on multimodal analgesia, including ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral blockade. A thoracoscopic make a block, and plural infiltration anesthesia.

Multimodal analgesia effectively relieves intraoperative pain and inhibits the cough reflex. This protocol provides a sevoflurane inhalation anesthesia regimen to reduce the cough reflex during thoracoscopic surgery, minimizes oversedation, while providing a safe and a pain-free operating environment for patients. We maintain the patient’s spontaneous breathing and minimize mediastinal oscillations during the procedure, while taking into account the associated aided technical challenges.
