Jan 1, 2025
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Randomized, pilot study that evaluates surveillance bronchoscopy versus no surveillance for patients that undergo tracheobronchial stenting
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria1
- All adult patients that undergo central airway (trachea, main stem bronchi and bronchus intermedius) stenting.
Exclusion Criteria5
- Inability to obtain informed consent due to cognitive, neurologic or psychiatric impairment.
- Lobar or segmental stents alone
- Terminally ill patients considered too sick to undergo a follow-up surveillance bronchoscopy
- Stent insertion as a trial for excessive central airway collapse (as the duration of these stents is only 1-2 weeks)
- Patients with a tracheostomy (as these patients can undergo frequent in-line suctioning that can affect the outcomes being assessed)

Interventions
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that uses a bronchoscope (a thin, tube-like instrument with a light and a lens for viewing) to examine the inside of the trachea, bronchi (air passages that lead to the lungs), and lungs. The bronchoscope is inserted through the nose or mouth.
