Hypoxia during bronchoalveolar lavage
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine, 1990AbstractThe aim of this study was to determine the degree and duration of hypoxaemia during bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and to examine the effect of supplemental oxygen on this response. Transcutaneous oxygen tension (PO2) was recorded continuously in 22 patients having bronchoscopy alone (Group 1), and during BAL in patients with a variety of ...

Candidates for this procedure are predisposed to develop pneumothorax due to underlying infectious interstitial emphysema. This risk factor is increased by the hyperbaric consequences of lavage and also by the cough induced by bronchoscopic examination.
