Safety of Endobronchial Ultrasound-guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration : A Prospective Study

January 1, 2013 updated by: Kyung Jong Lee, Samsung Medical Center
The purpose of this study is to find all kinds of complications and it's frequency related to the Endobronchial Ultrasound- Transbronchial Needle Aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) and to evaluate associated risk factors in patients who developed complications. The investigators performs EBUS-TBNA examination on all subjects that need mediastinal evaluation. All complications during or after the procedure will be recorded prospectively.
