Brief Summary:
Bronchoscopy is crucial for diagnosing and treating respiratory diseases and is recommended under sedation. Deep sedation improves patient comfort and procedural efficiency, especially in complex cases, by reducing movement and coughing. However, it carries risks of respiratory depression and airway obstruction, potentially requiring premature termination or urgent intubation. Determining the optimal timing for intubation can be challenging despite proper monitoring. To enhance safety, the investigator has performed bronchoscopy under deep sedation with preemptive intubation for years, sharing this experience with other hospitals. This study aims to evaluate its safety and feasibility through a multicenter prospective observational approach.
Detailed Description:
Bronchoscopy is a crucial procedure for diagnosing and treating respiratory diseases. It is recommended to be performed under sedation whenever possible, with sedation levels ranging from minimal to moderate and deep sedation. Deep sedation enhances patient comfort and facilitates the procedure, making it particularly useful for lengthy or complex bronchoscopic examinations. Additionally, deep sedation reduces involuntary patient movements and coughing, allowing the proceduralist to perform bronchoscopy more effectively when the patient is deeply sedated.
Despite its benefits, deep sedation carries the risk of respiratory depression and impaired airway maintenance, which may necessitate early termination of the bronchoscopy. If respiratory suppression or inadequate airway maintenance occurs during deep sedation, the procedure may need to be interrupted for endotracheal intubation using the bronchoscope. However, even with appropriate monitoring during bronchoscopy, determining the optimal timing for endotracheal intubation can be challenging, potentially disrupting procedural continuity and reducing the likelihood of a successful examination.
To enhance patient comfort and procedural safety, the investigator has been performing bronchoscopy under deep sedation with preemptive endotracheal intubation for several years. This clinical experience has been shared with other university hospitals in the region, and cases of deep sedation with preemptive intubation under the supervision of bronchoscopists have been reported. This study aims to evaluate the safety and feasibility of deep sedation with preemptive endotracheal intubation during bronchoscopy through a multicenter prospective observational approach.
