Topic: Bronchoscopy



  
 Solitary Pulmonary Nodule
Bronchoscopy is also useful for treating airway lesions by placing radiocatheters for localized endobronchial radiation therapy (brachytherapy).
Bronchoscopy is also useful as a therapeutic tool.
Prior to either a flexible or rigid bronchoscopy, the patient should be evaluated with a history, physical examination, and chest x-ray.

 * Bronchoscopy - (Disease): Definition
Bronchoscopy is a surgical technique for viewing the interior of the airway s.
Diagnosis of lung cancer may be made by physical examination, chest X rays, bronchoscopy (see bronchoscope), or percutaneous needle biopsy (insertion of a fine needle through the skin and into the lung to obtain tissue for study).
Bronchoscopy is a diagnostic procedure in which a tube with a tiny camera on the end is inserted through the nose or mouth into the lungs.

 Bronchoscopy aHealthyAdvantage
It may not be appropriate to perform bronchoscopy on patients with an unstable heart condition.
A more serious risk involved in having a bronchoscopy performed is the occurrence of a pneumothorax, due to puncturing of the lungs, which allows air to escape into the space between the lung and the chest wall.
Prior to the bronchoscopy, several tests may be done, including a chest x ray and blood work.

 British Thoracic Society guidelines on diagnostic flexible bronchoscopy -- 56 (Supplement 1): 1 -- Thorax
Fibreoptic bronchoscopy may be performed in the ICU for a wide range of diagnostic or therapeutic indications.
Intravenous access should be established in all patients before bronchoscopy is commenced (and before sedation, if given) and left in place until the end of the postoperative recovery period.
Flexible bronchoscopy is an extremely safe procedure as long as some basic precautions are taken.

 Bronchoscopy
Before the bronchoscopy begins, a nurse will probably start an I.V. and give you some medication to help you relax.
During the bronchoscopy, the doctor will be able to suction any secretions or congestion that needs to be removed.
During a bronchoscopy your doctor will be able to rinse and clean the airways, take tiny tissue samples, remove foreign objects as well as look for signs of lung disease.

 Bronchoscopy - HIV: health and medical information about HIV and AIDS
Bronchoscopy is a procedure during which an examiner uses a viewing tube to evaluate a patient's lung and airways including the voice box and vocal cord, trachea, and many branches of bronchi.
During the bronchoscopy, the examiner can see the tissues of the airways either directly by looking through the instrument or by viewing on a TV monitor.
Depending on the indication the examiner will choose between the flexible fiber optic bronchoscope or the rigid bronchoscope.
http://www.medicinenet.com/bronchoscopy/article.htm

  
 Rigid Bronchoscopy: Indications and Technique
Most complications of rigid bronchoscopy are due to poor insertion techniques, prolonged trauma of the larynx and vocal cords, or failure to heed the warnings of hypercapnia, hypoxemia, or hemodynamic instability.
Today, most experts would agree that expertise in rigid bronchoscopy is desirable for anyone whose practice consists mainly of the care and management of patients with complex airway disorders.
Thus, rigid bronchoscopy is performed by many thoracic surgeons, most otorhinolaryngologists, and some pulmonologists.

 LIFE Bronchoscopy
Studies have been performed that demonstrate a 171 percent increase in detection rate when the LIFE bronchoscopy is used instead of traditional bronchoscopy.
Often these subtle changes, which are associated with cancer, are difficult to visualize through conventional bronchoscopy.
One reason for the continued low survival rate is the fact that cancerous lesions have traditionally been found at a late, invasive stage, when palliation is the only option.

 Interventional Bronchoscopy
The success of stent placement in cancer patients led Dr. Moses to adapt interventional bronchoscopy to treat other conditions.

 eMedicine Health - Bronchoscopy Introduction
Since then, bronchoscopy has become an increasingly important diagnostic and therapeutic tool for the management of chest diseases.
Doctors perform rigid bronchoscopy less often today, but it remains the procedure of choice for removing foreign material and for several other treatments.
It is now perhaps the most common invasive procedure in the study and care of lungs.

 Bronchoscopy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In medicine, bronchoscopy is the visualization of the lower
It is also useful in the treatment of airway obstruction by tumors or foreign bodies, for removal of secretions and as an assistive technique in difficult intubation of the trachea.
Bronchoscopy is often performed for diagnostic purposes (diagnosis of tumor, bleeding, infection, or trauma).

 Bronchoscopy information
Please tell the doctor or nurse if you have any allergies to any drugs; they will also want to know about any previous bronchoscopy you have had, if you are asthmatic, and any change in your condition since you were last seen in the clinic.
During the test: You may be given a pre-medication injection prior to the examination which will cause your mouth to feel dry and make you feel sleepy.
A bronchoscopy is a test which allows the doctor to look directly at the trachea (the windpipe), the bronchi (branches of the airways) and into some areas of the lungs.

You may ask the doctor to give you a medicine to relax you before the bronchoscopy.

Even patients not undergoing heart-lung or lung transplant may need to have a bronchoscopy if they develop a pneumonia following heart transplantation.
