How do doctors rate the Ambu single-use bronchoscope?
A new study by Kriege et al. (2020) showed a preference among physicians for the Ambu® aScope™ 4 Broncho single-use bronchoscope and Ambu® monitor over standard reusable bronchoscopes they have used.
About the article:
• Published in Trends in Anaesthesia and Critical Care
• Based on Multi-centre European study intubations and bronchoscopies on 176 patients
• Preference for aScope 4 Broncho may have been due to the quality of the imaging and the ability to bend up and down 180°

Evaluation of closed-loop system vs standard sampling solutions
In this article, Respiratory consultant, Dr. Suveer Singh, presents the results of his evaluation of Ambu® aScope™ BronchoSampler™. The evaluation was based on procedures performed at Royal Brompton and Chelsea and Westminster hospitals.
More effective for collecting and protecting samples
The results of the analysis were published on Karger.com. Prof. Pallav L. Shah reviewed the data and co-edited the manuscript. Among other conclusions, Dr. Singh found that aScope BronchoSampler:
- Is quicker, easier and more effective than standard sampling solutions
- Offers a possibly safer technique for diagnostic sampling in the ICU
- May improve safety standards during the coronavirus pandemic
