Interventional Pulmonology

Description from DukeHub

Interventional pulmonary involves the use of both rigid and flexible bronchoscopes and diagnostic tools such as endobronchial ultrasound, robotic bronchoscopy with cone beam CT and pleuroscopy. Minimally invasive procedures include: airway ablation, airway stent placement, endobronchial valve placement, percutaneous tracheostomy and pleurodesis. Interventional pulmonary is attractive for the low rate of complications with most cases performed in the outpatient setting. Students will have the ability to experience out-patient pulmonary clinics, procedures in bronchoscopy, attend interdisciplinary research conferences, and be an integral part of the interventional pulmonary team. Pre-requisite: Permission of the instructor is required. Students should email (contact listed in DukeHub) in case there is a better location to meet on Monday pending which attending is on service. Students should report at 8am to Duke Pulmonary and Specialty services in the DMP Bronchoscopy suite (ground floor near radiology) on the first day. Credit: 2; Maximum Enrollment: 1.
