Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * All adult patients that undergo central airway (trachea, main stem bronchi and bronchus intermedius) stenting.
  • * Inability to obtain informed consent due to cognitive, neurologic or psychiatric impairment.
  • * Lobar or segmental stents alone
  • * Terminally ill patients considered too sick to undergo a follow-up surveillance bronchoscopy
  • * Stent insertion as a trial for excessive central airway collapse (as the duration of these stents is only 1-2 weeks)
  • * Patients with a tracheostomy (as these patients can undergo frequent in-line suctioning that can affect the outcomes being assessed)
