NCT00922155

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the usefulness of a balloon covered sheath as a guide sheath in endobronchial ultrasound guided transbronchial biopsy and bronchial brushing cytology for diagnosis of peripheral lung lesions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • the diagnostic efficiency of flexible bronchoscopy(FB) in peripheral lung lesions(PPLs)

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • complications, including bleeding, pneumothorax, respiratory failure,

    1 year

Study Arms (2)

EBUS

NO INTERVENTION

After the PPLs been localized by endobronchial ultrasound(EBUS), patients in the EBUS group received transbronchial biopsy and bronchial washing at the bronchus located by EBUS.

EBUS-GS

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

After PPLs been localized by EBUS, the EBUS and guide sheath were then inserted to localize the lesion again. Transbronchial biopsy and brushing were done through the guide sheath after the probe been removed.

Device: guide sheath

Interventions

The guide sheath (GS) was originally the balloon covered sheath (MAJ-643R, external diameter 2.6mm) of the EBUS probe. The two ends of the balloon covered sheath were cut and trimmed. The EBUS probe was covered with guide sheath and then inserted through the working channel to the targeted bronchus.

EBUS-GS

Eligibility Criteria

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • patients with peripheral pulmonary lesions who are going to receive bronchoscopy

You may not qualify if:

  • endobronchial abnormalities
