Impact of sedation technique on the diagnostic accuracy of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration.


ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:There is a paucity of data concerning the impact of the sedation technique used for endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) on diagnostic accuracy. The aim of this retrospective study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of EBUS-TBNA in deep and moderate sedations, and to investigate other possible determinants of diagnostic accuracy in three lymph node locations (mediastinal, subcarinal, and hilar). MATERIALS AND METHODS:The first consecutive patients at our institution undergoing EBUS-TBNA for selective sampling in deep sedation were compared with the first consecutive patients in moderate sedation between 2006 and 2014. Diagnoses based on EBUS-TBNA were compared with those on surgical or radiological follow-up. RESULTS:In a total of 232 patients, the overall diagnostic accuracy for correct diagnosis at the mediastinal, subcarinal, and hilar locations irrespective of the sedation technique was 91%, 93%, and 92%, respectively. At the three mentioned lymph node locations, overall diagnostic accuracy of EBUS-TBNA in deep sedation compared to moderate sedation was 88.5% and 95.5% (P = 0.3), 93.2 and 93.6% (P = 0.9), and 88.6 and 94.0% (P = 0.4), respectively. CONCLUSIONS:The sedation technique does not seem to influence the diagnostic accuracy of EBUS-TBNA.
