Barnes-Jewish Hospital - South Campus, East Pavillion

About The Interventional Pulmonology Procedural Space

Interventional Pulmonology is a procedural area that sees both inpatient and outpatient. We have three procedural rooms (2 Bronch Suites and 1 Pleural suite). Nurses work up patients for their procedures and work recovery for their post procedure as well. One nurse is assigned to a procedural room per day. In the bronch suites, the nurses administer moderate sedation under the direction of an attending and monitor the patient. In the pleural suite they are assisting with procedures (prepping sterile fields, assisting the NP with the procedure, monitoring the patient). Patients are taken back to their pre/post bay and recovered by a pre/post nurse. Patients are either discharged home or report is called and patient is transported back to their floor.
