Study Overview

Brief Summary

This trial studies how well radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound works in detecting the complete or partial collapse of the lung in patients undergoing peripheral bronchoscopy. Diagnostic procedures, such as radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound and bronchoscopy, use a thin, tube-like instrument inserted through the nose or mouth to view and take pictures of the inside of the trachea, air passages, and lungs.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate the proportion of patients identified as developing intraprocedural atelectasis detected by radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound (RP-EBUS) during peripheral bronchoscopy under general anesthesia.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To describe the most common locations for developing intraprocedural atelectasis detected by RP-EBUS.

II. To describe the proportion of evaluated bronchial segments per patient that are identified as developing intraprocedural atelectasis by RP-EBUS.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patients undergoing bronchoscopy with radial EBUS for peripheral lung lesions
  • Recent computed tomography (CT) performed no more than 4 weeks prior to the bronchoscopy
  • Voluntary informed consent to participate in the study

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients with baseline lung consolidation, interstitial changes or lung masses (> 3 cm in diameter) in dependent areas of the lung as seen on most recent CT
  • Pregnancy
  • Known diaphragmatic paralysis

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Atelectasis for each patient

Time Frame: Up to 3 years

Patients with at least 1 segment containing a new atelectasis will be determined to have atelectasis. Patients without atelectasis within any of the 8 segments will be determined to not have atelectasis. The proportion of patients identified as developing intraprocedural atelectasis by RP-EUS and its 95% confidence interval will be estimated to accomplish the primary objective.

New atelectasis for each segment

Time Frame: Up to 3 years

Presence or absence of atelectasis within each of the aforementioned 8 segments will be determined using radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound (RP-EBUS) in comparison with the most recent computed tomography (CT) performed \< 4 weeks prior to the bronchoscopy. A segment will be identified as having a new atelectasis if there is an indication of solid- or semisolid-appearing lesion by RP-EBUS without a corresponding indication of solid tumor or atelectasis on the preoperative CT. Descriptive statistics (frequencies, proportions, means, standard deviations, and ranges) will be provided for patient characteristics. The proportion of patients identified as developing intraprocedural atelectasis by RP-EBUS and its 95% confidence interval will be estimated to accomplish the primary objective.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Patient characteristics associated with the presence of atelectasis(Up to 3 years)
  • Proportion of evaluated bronchial segments developing intraprocedural atelectasis(Up to 3 years)
  • Common locations exhibiting atelectasis(Up to 3 years)
