Forty five patients (median age 65 yrs) undergoing elective FOB were studied prospectively. Patients were connected to a 12-lead computerized electroc...
متن کاملFibreoptic bronchoscopy without general anaesthetic.
We have used flexible fibreoptic bronchoscopy using sedation and local anaesthesia in 50 children aged 2-19 years (median 10) using an Olympus BFP20 instrument. Indications were opportunistic pneumonias (n = 11), persistent atelectasis (n = 11), recurrent pneumonia (n = 7), miscellaneous lower airway disease (n = 7), recurrent wheezing (n = 3), haemoptysis (3), to diagnose infection or rejectio...
