Abstract

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which has raised concerns about infection control for every clinical procedure, including flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FFB), has drawn the attention of clinicians across the globe. A pulmonologist frequently conducts this procedure to diagnose and treat pulmonary diseases like COVID-19. This procedure involves direct airway observation and generates aerosol from the patient. However, it is considered a double-edged sword, as the risk of infection and instrument contamination always haunts its clinical benefit to the patients and the operators. Therefore, a guideline for preparing and indicating FFB in COVID-19 must be addressed appropriately by emphasizing the importance of infection prevention and control. Fortunately, several recommendations and findings have emerged over the past three years, which should support safe FFB procedures for its operators with controlled infection. This study summarizes the indication, objective, contraindication, risk, preparation, and findings in diagnostic and therapeutic FFB patients with COVID-19.

Abstract

Biomedical science, which initially required only conventional research in the laboratory, currently involves information technology and has created bioinformatics in its development. Bioinformatics, a branch of biology, quantitatively analyzes information within biological macromolecules using software. Contemporary applications of bioinformatics have advanced biotechnological, medical, and pharmaceutical practices. Among the established applications of bioinformatics is diagnosing lung diseases using the genome-wide association study (GWAS) technique. Owing to sequencing technology and rapid computational methods, this technique is applied to analyze the link between genes with essential traits in the population, thus mapping the target genes to diagnose and treat diseases. The lung diseases diagnosed using GWAS include the responsible locus in asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and lung cancer. Moreover, it can identify the treatment for COPD and suggest a new locus in lung cancer. Advancing the current gene-mapping technology demands genotype and phenotype data to study disease-linked genomes. Currently, bioinformatics is barely known and receives little attention in Indonesia. However, it can grow rapidly through open-source basis data and cross-disciplinary collaboration.
