Abstract

Endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) is now an established surgical technique for treatment of palmar hyperhidrosis that is performed under general anesthesia with positive pressure ventilation via either an endotracheal tube or a double lumen endobronchial tube. This is a bilateral disease that requires the division of the right and left thoracic sympathetic chain. The aim of this study was to compare the hemodynamic changes using a left capnothorax first versus right a capnothorax first surgical approach using a single lumen endotracheal tube in patients undergoing bilateral ETS. Lung collapse was achieved by carbon dioxide insufflation.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 17 August 2013.
All research outputs
#18,329,207
of 22,696,971 outputs
Outputs from Surgical Endoscopy
#4,731
of 6,001 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#222,707
of 287,582 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Surgical Endoscopy
#97
of 135 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,696,971 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,001 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.1. This one is in the 6th percentile – i.e., 6% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 287,582 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 135 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
