Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy and Bronchoalveolar Lavage in Critically Ill Ventilated Patients

Start date: September 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) is widely used as a diagnostic or therapeutic procedure in intensive care units. Patients with ARDS or COVID-19 disease often undergoes to these procedures. However, intensive care patients might suffer from serious side effects such as prolonged oxygen desaturation and adverse change in lung compliance and resistance. This study aims to evaluate these changes and determine their impact on patient stability.
