Diagnostic Value of Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopy With a Guide Sheath for Peripheral Pulmonary Lesions : a Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy with a Guide Sheath(ENB-GS) for the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) .

Detailed Description

The investigators evaluated the efficacy and safety of transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) and bronchial brushing using electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) with a guide sheath (GS) for the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) with radiographic fluoroscopy.The study is designed as a two-center prospective randomized controlled trial. The participating centers are Department of pulmonary medicine and endoscope department, Shanghai chest Hospital affiliated to Shanghai JiaoTong University, China. Department of pulmonary medicine, Shanghai ZhongShan Hospitial affiliated to Shanghai FuDan University, China.Patients are divided into two groups, ENB-GS-TBLB-X-ray group and GS-TBLB-X-ray group.Each subject will be randomized to each group.The study is expected to enroll 60 patients at 2 centers (Shanghai Chest Hospital: 40, Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital: 20).

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: ENB-GS-TBLB-X-ray Group
The guide sheath(GS) is introduced into the lesion via Electromagnetic Navigation System. The locatable guide(LG) and GS are confirmed to reach the lesion by radiograph fluoroscopy, pathologic specimens are obtained with fluoroscopic guidance.
ENB is performed using an electromagnetic navigation system (LK-DW-NK-Z; Suzhou Lungcare Medical Technology Inc., China) with an internal locatable guide (LG; Lungcare) with diameter of 1.45 mm. Bronchoscopes with a working channel diameter of 2.0 mm are used (BF-260 and BF-P260F; Olympus, Japan). The LG is inserted into the GS(K-201; Olympus) beforehand, and the GS-covered LG is introduced via the working channel of the bronchoscope and navigated to the PPL finally. The LG and GS are confirmed to reach the lesion by radiograph fluoroscopy.
A GS is introduced in the working channel of the bronchoscope alone. The GS is confirmed to reach the lesion by radiograph fluoroscopy, pathologic specimens are obtained under fluoroscopic guidance.
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: GS-TBLB-X-ray group
The GS is introduced into the lesion via the working channel of a bronchoscope with radiographic fluoroscopy. Once the location of the lesion is identified by fluoroscopy, pathologic specimens are obtained under fluoroscopic guidance.
A GS is introduced in the working channel of the bronchoscope alone. The GS is confirmed to reach the lesion by radiograph fluoroscopy, pathologic specimens are obtained under fluoroscopic guidance.
