In EBUS-GS TBB, we used video bronchoscopes (BFp-260F, 4.0-mm outer diameter and BF1T-260, 5.9-mm outer diameter; Olympus, Tokyo, Japan) with an ultrasound scanner (EU-ME-1; Olympus) for the EBUS-GS biopsies. We used guide sheath kits with two sizes (K-201 and K-203 unit; Olympus). Each guide sheath kit consisted of a guide sheath, forceps, and a cytology brush. To detect the target lesion, we used radial endobronchial ultrasound probes (UM-S20-17S, 1.7-mm outer diameter and UM-S20-20R, 2.0-mm outer diameter; Olympus). In the CTBB group, we used several types of bronchoscopes for biopsy (BF260, BF6C260, BFp260F, and BF1T260; Olympus), disposable biopsy forceps (FB-231D; Olympus), and disposable cytology brushes (BC-202D-2010; Olympus).

Flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy was performed with standard fiberscopes by two professional pulmonologists. A flexible bronchoscope (BF-F260, BF-6C260, 1 T260, BF-Q290, 1TQ290, Olympus, Tokyo, Japan) was inserted via the nasal approach with subjects in the supine position.
All consecutive patients who were spontaneously breathing were eligible. All patients had fasted for at least 8 hours prior to the start of the procedure and had an intravenous catheter. Topical anesthesia was performed using 4% lidocaine spray in the oral cavity. While the vocal cords and carina were visualized, 4 ml of 2% lidocaine was delivered through the bronchoscope channel to suppress cough. Additional topical anesthesia was applied to the major bronchi as needed (at the bronchoscopists’ discretion) for a maximum total lidocaine dose of 7 mg/kg.

BAL procedures were performed using a flexible bronchoscope with a 5.9-mm outer diameter (BF-1TQ290 or BF-6C260; Olympus Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) under intravenous anesthesia. Sterile saline (0.9% NaCl) at room temperature was instilled through the bronchoscope. Per the commonly used methodology in Japan, the total instilled volume of saline was 150 mL (50 mL × 3 times). As the lavage site, 127 cases were in the middle lobe or lingula, and 28 were at other sites. The lavage site was determined by considering the presence of the interstitial shadow. Transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) was performed after BAL in 131 cases. We did not perform transbronchial lung cryobiopsy.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
