Abstract
ABSTRACT Medical Thoracoscopy (MT) is commonly performed by respiratory physicians for diagnostic as well as therapeutic purposes. The aim of the study was to provide evidence-based information regarding all aspects of MT, both as a diagnostic tool and therapeutic aid for pulmonologists across India. The consensus-based guidelines were formulated based on a multistep process using a set of 31 questions. A systematic search of published randomized controlled clinical trials, open labelled studies, case reports and guidelines from electronic databases, like PubMed, EmBase and Cochrane, was performed. The modified grade system was used (1, 2, 3 or usual practice point) to classify the quality of available evidence. Then, a multitude of factors were taken into account, such as volume of evidence, applicability and practicality for implementation to the target population and then strength of recommendation was finalized. MT helps to improve diagnosis and patient management, with reduced risk of post procedure complications. Trainees should perform at least 20 medical thoracoscopy procedures. The diagnostic yield of both rigid and semirigid techniques is comparable. Sterile-graded talc is the ideal agent for chemical pleurodesis. The consensus statement will help pulmonologists to adopt best evidence-based practices during MT for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

Ann Biomed Eng 2023; 51:2021-2034. [PMID: 37191825 DOI: 10.1007/s10439-023-03228-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/29/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
The current study aims to demonstrate the feasibility of a novel balloon-integrated optical catheter (BIOC) to achieve endoscopic laser application for circumferential coagulation of a tubular tissue structure. Both optical and thermal numerical simulations were developed to predict the propagation of laser light and a spatio-temporal distribution of temperature in tissue. Ex vivo esophagus tissue was tested with 980 nm laser light at 30 W for 90 s for quantitative evaluations. In vivo porcine models were used to validate the performance of BIOC for circumferential and endoscopic laser coagulation of esophagus in terms of acute tissue responses post-irradiation. Optical simulations confirmed that a diffusing applicator was able to generate a circumferential light distribution in a tubular tissue structure. Both numerical and experimental results presented that the maximum temperature elevation occurred at 3-5 mm (muscle layer) below the mucosa surface after 90 s irradiation. In vivo tests confirmed the circumferential delivery of laser light to a deep muscle layer as well as no evidence of thermal damage to the esophageal mucosa. The proposed BIOC can be a feasible optical device to provide circumferential laser irradiation as well as endoscopic coagulation of tubular esophagus tissue for clinical applications.
