Study Summary

This study aims to characterize airflow patterns during bronchoscopy under conscious sedation, and determine the incidence of obstructive and central respiratory events. The investigators also plan to monitor the degree and frequency of oxygen desaturation throughout the procedure. To achieve this, investigators use a physiologic monitoring device (NOX T3, K082113) that has been FDA approved for the screening and diagnosis of sleep disordered breathing \[1\]. The results from this pilot study will be used to assess the feasibility of a prospective study utilizing continuous external negative pressure (Pneuway). This negative pressure is applied through a neck mask to alleviate upper airway collapsibility and can potentially decrease the number of apneas during bronchoscopy under conscious sedation \[2\].

Primary Outcome

Obstructive apnea are defined as more than 90% cessation of air-flow that lasts for at least 10 seconds, despite the presence of respiratory and abdominal muscle effort. Obstructive hypopnea is when more than 30% cessation of air-flow occurs that lasts for at least 10 seconds, and is associated with oxygen desaturation of at least 3% from baseline. Central apnea is when cessation of air-flow occurs secondary to absent respiratory and abdominal muscle effort, that lasts for at least 10 seconds.
