BENITEZ LINERO, Inmaculada; LOPEZ ROMERO, Juan Luis e RODRIGUEZ CARRETERO, Ignacio. Sedation for linear endobronchial ultrasound. Rev. colomb. anestesiol. [online]. 2013, vol.41, n.2, pp.155-157. ISSN 0120-3347. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rca.2013.01.005.
Introduction: Endobronchial ultrasound is a new diagnostic technique for the detection of lung cancer. The technique enables a fine needle aspiration of mediastinal and hilar adenopathies to help stage the pathology. This is a minimally invasive technique performed under conscious sedation and does not require admission. Objectives: Presenting a clinical case using this new diagnostic technique and illustrate the anesthetic management outside the operating room. Material and methods: Presentation of the clinical case. Conclusions: The main objective of sedating the patient undergoing the procedure is proper analgesia and total patient immobility, while maintaining hemodynamic and respiratory stability. The anesthetist should provide maximum comfort and safety to the patient, facilitating the work of de physician doing the exploration. Communication between the two specialists is of the essence.
