Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Rigid Bronchoscopy
Standard of care in most pediatric centers; performed under general anesthesia to visualize and remove FB. Gold standard for both diagnosis and treatment
Rigid bronchoscopy
Participants will undergo rigid bronchoscopy under general anesthesia using an age-appropriate rigid bronchoscope. The airway will be systematically inspected. Any identified foreign body will be removed using appropriate retrieval devices (optical forceps, retrieval basket, suction). Post-removal, the airway will be re-examined to confirm clearance and detect trauma.
Flexible Bronchoscop
Flexible scope used for diagnosis and sometimes removal (especially in distal airways or when FB is small). Evaluate if less invasive flexible bronchoscopy can be effective.
Flexible scope
Participants will undergo flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy under sedation or general anesthesia. The bronchoscope will be inserted transorally or transnasally. The airway will be inspected, and foreign body retrieval attempted using retrieval baskets, forceps, or cryoprobe
Combined Approach
Initial flexible bronchoscopy for diagnosis and airway inspection, followed by rigid bronchoscopy for removal if needed. Compare efficiency and safety of combined method.
Combined Flexible-Rigid Bronchoscopy
Initial flexible bronchoscopy will be performed to locate the foreign body and inspect distal airways, followed by rigid bronchoscopy for definitive removal.
Imaging-Guided Approach
High-resolution CT or virtual bronchoscopy first; bronchoscopy only if imaging suggests FB. Assess if imaging can reduce unnecessary bronchoscopies.
Imaging-Guided Bronchoscopy
Participants will undergo pre-procedure high-resolution CT or virtual bronchoscopy. Based on imaging, either rigid or flexible bronchoscopy will be performed, targeting the suspected location to reduce procedure time.
