Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Medical thoracoscopy is a commonly used endoscopic technique for the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases. As an invasive technique, it is mainly used for pleural effusions and pleural diseases that cannot be diagnosed by non-invasive methods. It is also of great application in the diagnosis and treatment of certain other diseases. Any technical operation requires special skills. There must be a learning process for mastering these skills. Although internal thoracoscopic surgery is simple, especially for respiratory specialists who have undergone training for thoracentesis or closed drainage, there are discrepancies in thoracoscopic diagnosis and treatment in hospitals in China; furthermore, the surgical methods are not uniform, and some even lead to serious complications. Therefore, the thoracoscopic diagnostic and treatment technology in China needs to be standardized. The Respiratory Professional Committee of the Integrated Medical Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association invited relevant Chinese experts to formulate this standard after several rounds of discussion.
