Study Objectives:

Evaluate whether the implementation of a synoptic report for EBUS results in improved patient outcome metrics, specifically: Proportion of patients with suspected or confirmed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing systematic staging who have a complete procedure. Where a complete procedure is defined as examination of the five mediastinal lymph node stations (lymph node stations 7, 2R, 4R, 2L and 4L) and sampling of lymph nodes 5mm or larger or those with suspicious morphology as determined by the proceduralist. An incomplete procedure is defined as an systematic staging procedure that does not examine all 5 lymph node stations and sample all that should be sampled as per the above criteria. Proportion of patients with PET-occult lymph node mestases detected. Number of lymph nodes sampled per procedure. Number of patients with at least one radiologically normal lymph node sampled.
