Figures
- FIGURE 1
Survey timeframe in context of major events and progress of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Neighboring European countries are plotted for comparison. For clarity, cumulative cases are plotted on a logarithmic scale. Data were retrieved from the Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore, MD, USA) [13].
- FIGURE 2
Fraction of cancellations by unit size. Bronchoscopy units are divided into smaller units (<2000 procedures per year, n=60) and larger units (>2000, n=45). *: fractions deviating <5 percentage points for combined data from interdisciplinary and bronchoscopy units (n=218).
- FIGURE 3
Spatial separability of high-risk patients within endoscopy units. Partial separability was given when either a separate endoscopy suite or separate peri-interventional area were available. For ideal conditions, units had to perform interventions in a negative pressure room in addition to complete separability. *: fractions deviating <5 percentage points for combined data from interdisciplinary and bronchoscopy units (n=218).
- FIGURE 4
Implementation rates for procedural measures. COVID-19: coronavirus disease 2019; PPE: personal protective equipment. *: fractions deviating <5 percentage points for combined data from interdisciplinary and bronchoscopy units (n=218).
- FIGURE 5
Expectations of managers of endoscopy units for the future. Diverging bar chart with neutral split indicated by vertical line. 5-step Likert scale for shortages in personal protective equipment (PPE), shortages in staff and financial losses threatening economic survival of the unit.
