Background:
The study aimed to explore the effect of a bronchoscopic simulator-based comprehensive teaching method in the training of flexible bronchoscope-guided intubation for suspected lung cancer patients for doctors without bronchofibroscopic operation background.
Methods:
We designed a prospective self-control study involved in 35 trainees from the Navy Military Medical University's affiliated hospital to evaluate flexible bronchoscope-guided intubation's training outcome. Before and after the practice training, we recorded the flexible bronchoscope passing time from nasal to visible glottis and carina, tracheal placement tube, and ventilation.
Results:
All 35 trainees could complete flexible bronchoscope-guided intubation independently after training.
Conclusions:
The bronchial diagnosis for suspected lung cancer patients and treatment-based model can be widely applied in tracheal intubation training.

Bronchoscopy
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...
