Bronchoalveolar Lavage in a Pediatric Population
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2021Abstract Objectives The cytomorphologic findings of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in pediatrics were correlated with clinical symptoms. Methods Patient demographics, clinical symptoms/history, cytomorphologic findings, and oil red O ...

Bronchoalveolar Lavage in Lung Cancer
Respiration, 1992The analysis of soluble and cellular components of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluids might help the diagnosis of a specific tumour. Up to now disease specific humoral constituents have not yet been found. Concerning cellular recovery, BAL can be useful particularly in patients with bronchiolo-alveolar carcinoma.

Bacteremia During Bronchoalveolar Lavage
Southern Medical Journal, 1986We prospectively evaluated the incidence of bacteremia during fiberoptic bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and its relationship to postlavage symptoms in 12 volunteers. Qualitative and quantitative blood cultures were obtained before and during BAL.

Bronchoalveolar Lavage as a Research Tool
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2007Researchers over the past 40 years have utilized bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) as a tool to help expand our knowledge of pulmonary medicine. Many reports have documented BAL as a safe procedure for research subjects. New technologies, such as flow cytometry, have provided much needed insight into the mechanisms behind several pulmonary diseases.

Proteomics of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid
Journal of Chromatography B, 2005Lung diseases are essentially multi-factorial diseases that require a global analysis, and thus, cannot be understood through the sole analysis of individual or small numbers of genes. Proteome analysis has rapidly developed in the post-genome era and is now widely accepted as the obligated complementary technology for genetic profiling.

BRONCHOALVEOLAR LAVAGE IN RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS
Rheumatology, 1993Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was performed on 70 RA patients, 28 without extra-articular manifestations, nine with pulmonary involvement, 13 with sicca-syndrome, 20 with other extra-articular manifestations such as renal involvement, cutaneous vasculitis and rheumatoid nodules.

Bronchoalveolar lavage findings in firefighters
American Journal of Industrial Medicine, 1997Firefighters are exposed to irritating, asphyxiating toxic gases and aerosols. Previous studies indicate that this may result in acute as well as chronic lung function impairment. It is well known that inhalation of organic material can cause alveolitis.

Chest, 1986
The application of the method of bronchoalveolar lavage to an increasing array of pulmonary diseases was evident, and the use of sophisticated technology to study cells and measure minute amounts of protein and other components in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid indicated that more meaningful information may be gained about diseased airways and alveolar ...

Comparison of Ballard Catheter Bronchoalveolar Lavage With Bronchoscopic Bronchoalveolar Lavage
Chest, 1994Bronchoscopic bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in mechanically ventilated patients requires a large endotracheal tube, physician expertise, expensive equipment, and support staff.The Ballard BAL catheter is a disposable coude tip 16F device that can be attached to the endotracheal tube and ventilator circuit without loss of positive end-expiratory pressure

Bronchoalveolar Lavage: Biomarkers
2020Biomarkers in medicine have the potential for being indicative of specific conditions and can also be helpful in the evaluation of responses to therapeutic interventions. The airways of children and adults are easily assessable by fiber optic instruments, and flexible bronchoscopy is therefore a routine method to sample liquids from the airways for ...
