This course consists of three days with a stepwise increase in level: Two days of diagnostic bronchoscopy and one day of therapeutic bronchoscopy. Apart from technical skills the modules will have a strong focus on the clinical context and team performance. Throughout the course considerable exercise time is provided at multiple hands-on stations in order to practice your skills. On day 1 & 2 the emphasis will be on the airway anatomy, important skills such as handling of the bronchoscope, TBNA, EBUS and airway hemorrhage management. Day 3 is all about therapeutic bronchoscopy. Techniques such as diathermy, cyrotherapy, laser, rigid bronchoscopy and airway stenting will be discussed and practised.
You have the freedom to register for day 1 & 2 (diagnostic bronchoscopy) and/or day 3 (therapeutic bronchoscopy). We strongly advise to start with day 1, unless you consider yourself an experienced bronchoscopist. Prices: one module € 350, two modules € 650, three modules € 800.
