Abstract:
The authors developed a method of sanative fibrobronchoscopy with the use of directed high-frequency stream ventilation with oxygen. A total of 108 procedures were conducted in 64 patients for removal of pulmonary complications after operations on the thoracic organs. The positive results of the method were confirmed by authentic improvement of the indices of external respiration function and increase of blood pO2 by 102% on the average. No improvement of similar indices was encountered in patients of the control group, while the blood pO2 reduced by 13.4% on the average. It is concluded that the method is very effective and safe, as compared to the traditional method of sanative fibrobronchoscopy in patients after interventions on the thoracic organs.

Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due to...
