Summary

This retrospective, observational, cohort study evaluates the treatment management, long-term outcomes and survival analyses in patients hospitalized in the Intensive Care Unit with a diagnosis of Post-Intubation Tracheal Stenosis (PITS) between 1st June 2016 and 1st June 2022. The study emphasizes the role of bronchoscopic interventions in treatment management and the effective and efficient use of health services.

Conditions

  • Tracheal Stenosis
  • Intensive Care Unit

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Interventional Bronchoscopy

Bronchoscopy offers vital information when evaluating patients suffering from tracheal stenosis. It enables direct visualisation which identifies the lesion, determines its location and extent of airway involvement, highlights vascularity and fragility, allows for tissue diagnosis and enables the operator to assess the extent of mucosal infiltration and airway compression caused by the tumour. The technique facilitates assessment of stenosis diameter for suitable stent selection. In addition to enabling diagnostic bronchoscopy, rigid bronchoscopy offers therapeutic options such as dilatation, cryotherapy and stenting for tracheal stenosis patients. Our clinical setting employs rigid bronchoscopy for interventional procedures with both diagnostic and therapeutic aspects.
