Care Coordination for Lung Biopsy Combined with Brush Biopsy and Bronchoalveolar Lavage with Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopy:A Report of 6 Cases

Background: To explore the care cooperation and experience of lung biopsy combined with brush biopsy and bronchoalveolar lavage with electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB). Methods: The experience was summarized by reviewing the clinical data and preoperative preparation, nursing coordination and postoperative health guidance of 6 patients for ENB. The therapeutic effects were evaluated. Results: All cases were successfully completed. 4 patients were malignant cases, 3 cases of them underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, and 1 patient underwent radiotherapy and other multimodality therapy. The other 2 cases were benign cases. No complications occurred during hospitalization. Conclusion: Lung biopsy combined with brush biopsy and lavage with electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy needs skilled care cooperation, which is beneficial to improve the positive rate of biopsy in peripheral pulmonary nodules.
