Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| use of reusable hot biopsy forceps | 2 years | To show that the use of hot clamps (thermocoagulating) for endobronchial analysis does not affect the anatomopathologic interpretation of biopsies under certain conditions (with varying in intensity of current). |
