Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and collect data on the initial effectiveness of a 1.1mm flexible single-use cryoprobe with oversheath used for transbronchial lung biopsy via a bronchoscopic approach.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Male or Female, ≥ 18-years-old
- Scheduled to undergo bronchoscopy with transbronchial biopsy as the standard medical care determined by their treating pulmonologist
Exclusion Criteria
- Pregnant or nursing females, or females of child bearing potential who refuse to take a pregnancy test prior to enrollment
- Individuals with current or recent systematic conditions, such as uncontrolled hypertension (systolic > 200 mmHg or diastolic > 110 mmHg), type 1 diabetes, severe pulmonary hypertension, acute kidney injury, stroke (within the last 6 months) or myocardial infarction (within the last 3 months)
- Presence of bleeding disorder
- Platelet count <50,000
- Current use of systemic anticoagulation or antiplatelet therapy without the ability to hold therapy for the recommended amount of time prior to an invasive procedure (aspirin monotherapy is acceptable)
- International Normalized Ratio (INR) <1.5
- Robotic Bronchoscopy
