Additional Information for Bronchial Catheter
Bronchial catheters are medical devices used in the field of respiratory medicine. They are part of the supply class "Medical And Surgical Instruments, Equipment, And Supplies" in the supply group "Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies."
Bronchial catheters are specifically designed to be inserted into the bronchial tubes, which are the airways that lead to the lungs. These catheters are used for various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, such as bronchial lavage, bronchial biopsy, and bronchial stenting.
During bronchial lavage, a bronchial catheter is used to introduce a saline solution into the bronchial tubes to collect samples of cells, mucus, or other substances for analysis. This procedure helps in diagnosing respiratory conditions and infections.
Bronchial biopsy involves using a bronchial catheter to obtain tissue samples from the bronchial walls. These samples are then examined under a microscope to detect any abnormalities or diseases, such as lung cancer or inflammation.
Bronchial stenting is a procedure where a bronchial catheter is used to place a stent, which is a small tube-like device, into a narrowed or blocked bronchial tube. This helps to keep the airway open and improve breathing in cases of conditions like lung tumors or strictures.
Bronchial catheters come in various sizes and designs to accommodate different patient needs and procedural requirements. They are typically made of flexible materials, such as silicone or polyurethane, to ensure safe and comfortable insertion into the bronchial tubes.
It's important to note that the use of bronchial catheters requires specialized medical training and should only be performed by qualified healthcare professionals.
