When a foreign body is found in the lungs, a bronchoscopy is performed to remove it. The bronchoscope is flexible and can be inserted into the airway to observe the area. This procedure is often an outpatient procedure, but there are times when it may be necessary to perform the procedure in a hospital. After a stenosis, the patient will undergo a general anaesthetic to make the procedure more comfortable. If the patient experiences pain, shortness of breath, coughing up blood, or chest tightness that lasts more than a couple of days, a sedative will be given to numb the airway and keep them comfortable. While they will not be asleep, they will be drowsy, but they are unlikely to remember the procedure.
Before having the procedure, the patient will receive an oral sedative and change into a hospital gown. A hearing aid or glasses will be removed prior to the procedure. Once the patient is prepared, the healthcare provider will insert the bronchoscope through the mouth or nose. The procedure typically takes 30 minutes. However, some patients experience a sore throat and cough after the procedure. If this is the case, a doctor will administer cough medications and an anti-anxiety medication to prevent discomfort.
Before having a bronchoscopy procedure, patients must consult with their physicians to discuss the risks and benefits of the procedure. A bronchoscopy is an outpatient procedure and patients are usually sent home within a day after the procedure. After the procedure, the patient will have some sore throat and a cough, but no complications will result from the operation. After the test, the patient should schedule a follow-up appointment to see how the procedure went.
The procedure is done in a hospital and most patients are awake during the procedure. They will be given a local anesthetic or sedative to numb the nose and throat before the procedure. The flexible bronchoscope tube will be inserted into the bronchi. Some patients may feel a tugging sensation when the tube is being inserted into their lungs. Some people may experience pain as the tube moves into their lungs. A person may be given oxygen to help them breathe.
The bronchoscope is used to look inside the airway. A thin instrument is passed down the tube to take a sample of the air sac. The bronchoscopy is a highly-effective tool for locating the source of a persistent cough. A pulmonologist will perform the procedure if the patient has chronic asthma. In some cases, patients may experience pain. Although it is relatively common to have a cough, it can also be the cause of a persistent infection or a more serious condition.
The procedure is done through a tube that is threaded through the nose and mouth. The bronchoscope will be used to see inside the airway, as well as to examine an object that may be in the airway. The bronchoscope is a multi-use tool, and does not need to be reprocessed between use. The reusable tracheostomy tube is the preferred choice for a patient with chronic asthma.
A bronchoscopy may be necessary if the patient is experiencing chest pain or coughing and has difficulty swallowing. If the procedure is needed to remove a lung nodule, tissue samples and mucus may be obtained. If the procedure is successful, a biopsy will be performed. A patient may be confused when they awaken from anesthesia. During the bronchoscopy, the physician will check the airway to ensure the health of the patient.
During a bronchoscopy, the bronchoscope is introduced through a side port, where the anesthesiologist will connect a ventilation port. In some cases, the bronchoscope will be attached to a rigid suction. The patient may be given a flexible suction catheter for the suction. A rigid suction catheter may be used if a rigid tube is too small.
The first indication for a bronchoscopy is the removal of a foreign body. In 1897, Gustav Killian used a metal pipe and local anesthetic to remove a pork bone from a farmer's lung. This procedure is now the standard for removing foreign bodies from the lungs. This procedure can save the lives of many patients who would otherwise suffer from aspiration. The flexible bronchoscope is used to reach these inflamed areas and make them comfortable.
