Title: [Emergency fibroscopy (author's transl)]. Author: Lamy P, Lamaze R, Mathiot E, Zuck P, Canet B, Martinet Y. Journal: Poumon Coeur; 1980; 36(2):71-81. PubMed ID: 7465488. Abstract: Emergency bronchial fibroscopy is often asked for by intensive care units. It is usually easy to make examination. The authors tried to evaluate its diagnostic and therapeutical efficiency. They gathered 48 observations of endoscopies performed in the intensive care unit. The diagnostic efficiency is valued at 70% and the therapeutical one at 85%. The main indication is the pulmonary obstruction besides tracheal stenoses, tracheal ruptures, hemoptysis and searching for opportunistic germs.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
