Flexible bronchoscopy for children ages 1 to 18
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study uses a thin, flexible tube with a camera (bronchoscopy) to look inside the airways and find or treat breathing problems. It may help doctors better understand and manage lung issues in children.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Your child must be between 1 and 18 years old.
- Your child is scheduled for a bronchoscopy at the pediatric unit.

This study collects samples (like fluid from the lungs) during a planned bronchoscopy to look for new ways to understand and predict children's breathing problems. It might help if your child already needs this procedure for a medical reason.
This study is for very sick children with breathing problems that may be caused by airway disease. It compares using a camera through a breathing tube (bronchoscopy) versus imaging tests like X-rays to see which one better detects the problem.
This trial looks at how doctors learn and perform bronchoscopy, a procedure to look inside your lungs. It is for patients who are already scheduled to have a bronchoscopy and a recent CT scan.
This study is testing a single-use (disposable) bronchoscope for lung procedures like biopsies. It aims to see if it's safe and effective for patients who need a lung procedure.
This study looks at how the gut and lungs affect breathing problems in children. It compares samples from children with and without respiratory illnesses to understand why some children get sicker than others.
This study looks at how well a thin tube with a camera (bronchoscopy) can find and remove objects that children might have accidentally breathed in. It may help doctors understand the best way to handle these emergencies.
