| Venue | Grand Hyatt Singapore, Residence 6, Level 3 | |||
| Format | Rotating hands-on stations with focused short didactic sessions and practical demonstrations | |||
| Introduction | This hands-on workshop is designed to strengthen both the technical execution and clinical reasoning required for advanced bronchoscopy and interventional pulmonology. Each station combines short expert demonstrations with deliberate practice, troubleshooting, and discussion of indications, safety checks, and complication management | |||
| Objectives |
– Develop a structured approach to procedure planning, including indication, airway anatomy, lesion or nodal target, device selection, and rescue strategy. – Improve hands-on familiarity with convex-probe EBUS bronchoscopes, R-EBUS probes, guide sheaths, biopsy tools, cryoprobes, ablative devices, rigid bronchoscopes, and airway stents. – Practice stepwise technical execution with attention to ergonomics, team communication, equipment readiness, and procedural flow. – Recognise pitfalls early and apply practical strategies for bleeding, airway obstruction, pneumothorax risk, device malposition, and loss of target access. |
|||
| Target Participants | Respiratory physicians, interventional pulmonologists, thoracic surgeons, respiratory and thoracic fellows and trainees, intensivists with an interest in advanced bronchoscopy, bronchoscopy nurses, and allied healthcare professionals involved in bronchoscopy services. | |||
