Overview

Consensus statement outlines patient selection and periprocedural management for BLVR, suggesting improvements in pulmonary function.

Key Points

  • Consensus recommendations detail practical guidance for patient selection in bronchoscopic lung volume reduction.
  • Twenty-one recommendations reached consensus among an international expert group, enhancing periprocedural management in emphysema cases.
  • The modified Delphi technique ensured a systematic approach in forming the consensus, emphasizing evidence-based practices.
  • Gaps in existing knowledge highlight the need for further research to support efficient bronchoscopic lung volume reduction methodologies.
