Methods and systems for targeting, accessing and diagnosing diseased lung compartments are disclosed. The method comprises introducing a diagnostic catheter with an occluding member at its distal end into a lung segment via an assisted ventilation device; inflating the occluding member to isolate the lung segment; and performing a diagnostic procedure with the catheter while the patient is ventilated. The proximal end of the diagnostic catheter is configured to be attached to a console. The method may also comprise introducing the diagnostic catheter into the lung segment; inflating the occluding member to isolate the lung segment; and monitoring blood oxygen saturation. The method may further comprise introducing the diagnostic catheter into the lung segment; determining tidal flow volume in the lung segment; determining total lung capacity of the patient; and determining a flow rank value based on the tidal flow volume of the lung segment and the total lung capacity.

A double lumen endotracheal tube capable of being fixed to the trachea carina. The double lumen endotracheal tube includes: a first tube extended in one direction; a second tube extended while being adjacent to the first tube and having an extended portion bent toward one side thereof and extended longer than the first tube; a first balloon extended while passing through the first tube so as to expand or contract a first cuff connected to the end thereof; a second balloon extended while passing through the second tube so as to expand or contract a second cuff connected to the end thereof; and a third balloon extended while passing through between the first tube and the second tube so as to expand or contract a third cuff connected to the end thereof.

A tracheal tube inserted through the trachea and bronchi of a subject, comprising: a tube body having a through hole on an outer circumferential surface thereof, a bronchial cuff provided on an outer circumferential surface of the tube body and pressing an inner circumferential surface of the bronchus; wherein the bronchial cuff is spaced apart in the axial direction of the tube body and forms a plurality of ventilation spaces; wherein the ventilation spaces are in communication with each other; wherein the through hole communicate with the ventilation space.

An endobronchial tube comprising at least two lumens of different lengths for selectively associating with a patient about at least two locations relative to the Tracheal Carina. said tube comprising: a first lumen having an open distal end that associates proximally to the Carina within the Trachea, with a first inflatable cuff; a second lumen having an open distal end that extends distally, past the Carina and associates within one of the Left Bronchial branch and Right Bronchial branch with a second inflatable cuff; a dedicated image sensor lumen spanning the length of said first lumen, the dedicated image sensor lumen comprising an image sensor and illumination source disposed adjacent to the distal end of said first lumen, and configured to provide an image of the Tracheal bifurcation of the Tracheal Carina, the openings of the Left Bronchial branch, and the opening Right Bronchial branch; and at least one dedicated cleaning lumen disposed parallel with said dedicated image sensor lumen along the length of said endobronchial tube and wherein said cleaning lumen is configured to forms a cleaning nozzle at the distal end, wherein said cleaning nozzle is directed toward said image sensor lumen at its distal end.

A device is used to improve the standard of care for patients with physiologic or pathologic differences between regions of the lungs. Regional variations can occur between the left and right lungs, upper and lower lungs, different lobes in the lungs, or diffuse variation that does not follow a strict pattern. The device includes a method to quantify the differences between regions of the lungs. Quantification of regional variations in lung pathophysiology can be performed with a sensor, such as a pressure or gas concentration sensor, imaging scans, or alternative technology. This quantified parameter is used to regulate the gas flow to each lung region. One embodiment does this with a novel flow regulation mechanism for a double lumen endotracheal tube for compartmentalized lung ventilation where either the flow or pressure to the left and right lung can be varied with a flow regulation mechanism. The device has embedded software that is able to analyze the clinical parameters of the left and right lung in real-time, including advanced algorithms to provide improved clinical feedback to clinicians to allow them to provide the highest level of personalized and precision care to a patient.

A method and system for instilling a medium into portions of a luminal network is provided. The method includes generating a model of a luminal network based on images of the luminal network, determining a location of a treatment target in the luminal network, navigating a bronchoscope through the bronchial tree to a target, guiding a catheter through the bronchoscope, dispensing medium to the target from a distal end of the catheter, and removing a quantity of medium from the luminal network.

A single lumen endobronchial tube for selective mechanical ventilation of the lungs can include a medical tube having a single lumen with an opening at the proximal end of the tube being adapted for connection to an external mechanical ventilation device, and an opening at the distal end being adapted for delivery of a medical gas; a wall extending throughout the tube's entire length having an internal wall surface, an external wall surface and a thickness therebetween, a portion of the wall having an aperture and a shaft adapted to house a mechanism for sealing the aperture; a distal bronchial cuff and at least a first proximal tracheal cuff positioned along the external wall surface and adapted to expand radially outward.
