About this trial
This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Post-Lung Transplantation Bronchiectasis focused on measuring Post lung transplant, Lung bronchoscopy, Lung biopsy, Lung rejection
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Adult patients (> 18 yrs) who had undergone single/double/heart-lung transplant
- Asymptomatic
- Normal spirometry defined as a FEV1 without significant drop from baseline (significant drop = >10% decrease from baseline)
- Clear chest radiograph over allograft
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients who are unable to consent for the procedure
- Patients with subcutaneous emphysema or other technical challenges that could interfere with satisfactory image acquisition- as deemed by the operator.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is being done to study a safe and non-invasive way to diagnose lung rejection and infection.
Detailed Description
Lung transplant recipients are at high risk for lung rejection and lung infection after transplant. This is diagnosed by performing lung bronchoscopies and lung biopsies. These procedures carry an increased risk for complications and are costly. This study is being done to study a safe and non-invasive way to diagnose lung rejection and infection.

8. Arms, Groups, and Interventions
Arm Title
Receiving Ultrasound
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Description
Every patient will receive a lung ultrasound prior to each scheduled bronchoscopy until the study stops.
Intervention Type
Diagnostic Test
Intervention Name(s)
Lung ultrasound
Intervention Description
The lung ultrasound will be performed by a trained pulmonologist by gently pressing a probe to various areas of your chest. This is a non-invasive procedure and you should not feel any pain. The ultrasound will take less than 10 minutes.
Primary Outcome Measure Information:
