Excerpt

Fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) is widely used in intensive care unit practice for percutaneous tracheostomy, for diagnostic evaluation and for toilet of the tracheobronchial tree. The risk of hypoventilation, and even life-threatening airway obstruction due to use of FOB is known. The aim of this study was to estimate the influence of flow, ratio between the endotracheal tube (ETT) and FOB diameter (RTBD), respiratory rate, tidal volume and pulmonary compliance, on mechanical ventilation parameters. …
