Robotic-assisted Bronchoscopy Under Moderate Sedation With Propofol
Sponsor: University of Zurich
Summary
In this study, the investigators want to find out whether robot-assisted bronchoscopy also works with moderate sedation (Propofol), as is already used in standard bronchoscopies. The study is being conducted as a pilot study. This means that it is an initial test run for a scientific investigation. The investigators are testing on a small scale whether the intervention works as predicted before a larger study is conducted.

Interventions
Robotic-assisted bronchoscopy under propofol
In this study, patients will undergo a robotic-assisted bronchoscopy under moderate sedation with propofol. While the use of propofol as a sedative is common for manual bronchoscopies, robotic-assisted bronchoscopy is only permitted under general anesthesia. In the study intervention, the investigators want to test the feasibility of the combination of robotic-assisted bronchoscopy under propofol.
