Can the Number of Radiofrequency Activations Predict Serious Adverse Events after Bronchial Thermoplasty? A Retrospective Case-Control Study

Volume: 5, Issue: 2, Pages: 221 - 233

Abstract
Introduction Bronchial thermoplasty (BT) is a bronchoscopic procedure that involves the delivery of thermal radiofrequency energy to the bronchial wall for treating severe asthma. It has been suggested that too many radiofrequency activations could induce serious adverse events (SAEs) at an early stage. We aimed to examine the number of radiofrequency activations at each session and early lung function changes from baseline to determine whether...
