Endobronchial Sampling: Needle Aspiration Jab Technique - Video

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video demonstrates the process of endobronchial needle aspiration. The catheter is advanced to the desired area while stabilizing the scope. The needle is then inserted and suction is turned on. Agitations are performed in the target lesion, making sure the needle moves and doesn't just push the tumor or airway wall. Afterward, suction is turned off before withdrawing the needle. Finally, the needle is retrieved from the scope, ensuring it is fully within the catheter.
