Bronchoscopic Release Of Air Trapped In Hyperinflated Emphysematous Lung
Jacksonville, FL
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the Apreo BREATHE System when used to support native airways and regional release of trapped air in the treatment of adult COPD patients with emphysema suffering from dyspnea due to pulmonary hyperinflation despite optimal medical management.

A Multicenter Study In Bronchoscopy Combining Stimulated Raman Histology With Artificial Intelligence For Rapid Lung Cancer Detection - The ON-SITE Study
Jacksonville, FL
The ON-SITE study represents a prospective, observational study focused on the training/tuning and pivotal validation of deep learning algorithms that detect cell/tissue morphology suspicious for cancer in biopsies of peripheral lung nodules/masses and mediastinal/hilar lymph nodes imaged with the NIO Laser Imaging System in the procedure room without requiring traditional sample processing.
The study includes four arms based on biopsy location and biopsy modality/tool:
1. Transbronchial forceps biopsy of peripheral lung nodules/masses (peripheral-TBBx)
2. Transbronchial needle aspiration biopsy of peripheral lung nodules/masses (peripheral TBNA)
3. Transbronchial needle aspiration biopsy of mediastinal/hilar lymph nodes (EBUS-TBNA)
4. Transbronchial cryo biopsy of peripheral lung nodules/masses (peripheral-CBx)

Postprocedural CT Scan in Patients Undergoing Bronchoscopic Lung Volume Reduction with Endobronchial Valves to Determine Benefit or Adverse Effects
Rochester, MN
The purpose of this story is to identify key radiographic variables that are predictive of symptomatic improvement in those patients undergoing endobronchial valve placement.
Symptomatic management of emphysema continues to be a difficult task by medical therapy alone. Bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR), utilizing minimal invasive placement of endobronchial valves, has emerged as a new therapeutic option. Early trial data demonstrated statistically and clinically significant improvement in FEV1, 6 minutes walk (6MW) distance, and quality of life. However, following the procedure, there are currently no good early predictors of symptomatic benefit. Often, patients wait several months to ...
