About this study

In plain language

This survey study looks at how lung procedure programs across the United States changed their work during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is for lung doctors who belong to certain professional groups. The findings may help programs improve their care and guide research for future pandemics.

This study investigates the changes in practice by pulmonary procedural programs across the United States as they faced the coronavirus pandemic. Information gathered from this study may help guide pulmonary programs on a wider scale and improve their practice. The study may also help researchers understand where they should focus research efforts to better respond to a pandemic in the future.
