Brief summary

An Investigation to determine the single-use scope's ability to suction secretion from the lungs to resolve the collapse of the lung.

Detailed description

The purpose of this investigation it to determine the single-use scope's ability to suction secretion from the lungs to resolve the collapse of the lung. The hypothesis is that aScope 3 Large is able to manage the secretion and thereby facilitating the resolution of secretion in the lung.
