A bronchoscope, also known as a bronchoscope, is a medical device used to examine and diagnose diseases of the lower respiratory tract. It is an optical instrument inserted into the patient's lower respiratory tract through the mouth or nose, which can directly observe the internal conditions of the trachea and bronchi.

The bronchial endoscope consists of three parts: a host computer, a video display system and an operating mirror. It uses modern high technology to combine tens of thousands of extremely fine glass fibers into a flexible endoscope with a diameter of only a few millimeters. With the attached biopsy sampling accessory, doctors can perform biopsies or excisions of diseased areas, as well as perform bacteriological and cytological examinations. In addition, the bronchial endoscope can also be used with an external TV system for photography, teaching and dynamic recording, making the inspection and diagnosis process more intuitive and accurate.

Bronchoscopy is a relatively safe and common endoscopy, through which doctors can observe lesions in the trachea and bronchi, and perform corresponding examinations and treatments based on the lesions. Indications include but are not limited to unexplained cough, hemoptysis, localized wheezing, hoarseness, etiological diagnosis of pulmonary and bronchial infectious diseases, diffuse pulmonary lesions, hilar or lymphadenopathy, and endobronchial tuberculosis. Treatment etc. In addition, bronchoscopy can also be used to remove foreign bodies in the bronchus when lung imaging examinations reveal foreign bodies, lavage treatment for atelectasis, lung abscess, silicosis, etc., and hemostatic treatment for patients with hemoptysis.

However, it is important to note that bronchoscopy is not suitable for everyone. For example, patients with active massive hemoptysis are not suitable for this test. Before bronchoscopy, the patient needs to fast and drink for 6 to 8 hours, and remove movable dentures, all jewelry, glasses, etc. Patients may experience some reactions after the procedure, but generally speaking, bronchoscopy is a relatively safe procedure with a low risk of serious complications.

However, compared with traditional imaging examinations such as X-ray and CT, bronchial endoscopy has the advantages of being intuitive, accurate, and safe. It can directly observe the condition of the lesion and avoid possible misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis in imaging examinations. At the same time, bronchial endoscopy also has the advantages of less trauma and faster recovery. Patients can quickly return to normal life and work after the examination.

Then there was the bronchial endoscopy training model. Our BIX-LV44 bronchial endoscope training model has a realistic shape and texture, which can simulate the elasticity and flexibility of the trachea, bronchi and lungs, allowing practitioners to better simulate the feel during real operations. Through repeated practice, you can become more proficient in the examination and operation skills of bronchial endoscopy, and improve the accuracy of diagnosis and the success rate of treatment.
