Robotic-assisted Bronchoscopy Under Moderate Sedation With Propofol: A Single-center Pilot Study.
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.
