Secondary endpoints are: Level of sedation and tolerance bronchoscopy examination. Measured parameters on the safety of examination are: the lowest saturation, needs to supplemental oxygen, amnesia , choking sensation or chest pain and if the patient is ready or not to undertake bronchoscopy second time in his life if necessary. Endtidal CO2, Respiratory rate, Blood pressure, Heart rate, level of oxygen are collected every 5 minutes before, during and after the bronchoscopy.
