Novel device to prevent droplets in bronchoscopy during the SARS‐CoV‐2 pandemic

[Image: see text] We modified the method of protection to reduce the exposure of health‐care workers (droplets) without restricting operability during bronchoscopy. Our method is inexpensive, simple, utilizes disposable materials and prevents interpatient infections. Its routine use during transoral...

description [Image: see text] We modified the method of protection to reduce the exposure of health‐care workers (droplets) without restricting operability during bronchoscopy. Our method is inexpensive, simple, utilizes disposable materials and prevents interpatient infections. Its routine use during transoral bronchoscopy may be considered due to its simplicity.
