Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To evaluate the effect of central airway stabilization on symptoms and quality of life in patients with symptomatic and severe tracheobronchomalacia.

    At 10-14 days post-stent ; at 3 months and yearly post-tracheobronchoplasty

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • To evaluate the effect of central airway stabilization on lung function, exercise capacity and functional status.

    At 10-14 days post-stent ; at 3 months and yearly post-tracheobronchoplasty

You may qualify if:

  • Suspicion of symptomatic tracheal and/or bronchial collapse during bronchoscopy or Dynamic Computed Tomographic study.
  • Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (regardless of severity) and suspicion of tracheal and/or bronchial collapse

You may not qualify if:
