  • Title: The role of the nurse bronchoscopist.
    Author: Martin J.
    Journal: Nurs Times; ; 99(41):60. PubMed ID: 14603662.
    Abstract:
    Fibre-optic bronchoscopy has traditionally been performed by respiratory physicians and registrars. It is an invaluable investigation for diagnosing lung cancer and other respiratory diseases. Modern bronchoscopy techniques make the procedure safe for most patients, apart from those who are gravely ill, or who have a gross reduction in respiratory reserve (Stradling, 1991).
