Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of NEOVEIL in postoperative pulmonary air leakage of pulmonary bullae resection by video-assisted thoracic surgery. Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 37 cases received NEOVEIL combined with ATB45 in video-assisted thoracic surgery (the NEOVEIL group), and clinical data of 40 cases by ATB45 alone(the control group) . We compared postoperative hospitalization time, keeping time of pleural cavity tubes, the pulmonary leakage time and the incidence of pulmonary infection in the two groups. Results There was no postoperative mechanical ventilation,hemothorax and death. In the NEOVEIL group, the postoperative hospitalization time was 5 to 9 days, the postoperative keeping time of pleural cavity tubes 2 to 4 days, the postoperative pulmonary leakage time 0 to 2 days with 4 patients un-leakage, and 1 patients with pulmonary infection; whereas the postoperative hospitalization time was 6 to 10 days,the postoperative keeping time of pleural cavity tubes 3 to 6 days,the postoperative pulmonary leakage time 2 to 5 days and 8 patients with pulmonary infection in the control group. There was statistical significance in the postoperative hospitalization time, keeping time of pleural cavity tubes, the pulmonary leakage time and the incidence of pulmonary inflammation in two groups(P ＜ 0. 05). The incidence of pulmonary inflammation of the NEOVEIL group (2. 7%) was significantly lower than that of the control group(20. 0%)(x2 = 4. 02, P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusion The operative effectiveness of the NEOVEIL group is better than that of the control group. The NEOVEIL can prevent the postoperative pulmonary leakage.
