First seen Feb 15, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study tests whether low-cost, single-use flexible bronchoscopes can safely replace reusable ones for routine lung procedures. Twenty adults will undergo a bronchoscopy with the disposable scope, and doctors will rate its quality, handling, and safety. The main goal is to see if doctors ever need to switch to a reusable scope during the procedure.
