Apneic oxygenation during robotic-assisted bronchoscopy: a retrospective study on safety and diagnostic yield
This is the first study to describe prolonged apneic oxygenation in RAB for PPL biopsy. The findings suggest that this technique may be a safe diagnostic approach in selected patients. Procedures should be performed at centers with expertise in advanced bronchoscopy and peri-procedural management.
