Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
1. Patients requiring EBUS-TBNA for lung cancer staging or examination of suspect mediastinal or hilar lymph nodes (at least one needle aspiration), puncture of a maximum of four lymph node stations +/- or even tumour biopsy
2. Obtained informed consent
3. At least 18 years old

Exclusion criteria:
1. Less than 18 years old
2. Pregnancy
3. Patients allergic to involved anesthetic agents
4. Patients presenting contraindications for the use of either of the two methods
5. Patients with known presence of atypical Pseudocholinesterase
6. Mediastinal mass tumors (larger than 10cm in diameter) which might compress the mediastinal vessels
7. Known severe heart failure (NYHA III+IV)
8. Patient will be transferred to the ICU after the procedure
9. Drug abuse
10. Lack of English or German language skills
11. GCS < 12
12. Severe neurologic disease that hinders postoperative assessment
13. Informed consent not obtained

Age maximum:
Gender: Both
Health Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied
EBUS-TBNA +/- tumour biopsy
Cancer
Intervention(s)

Patients are randomised to be ventilated with either:
1. Jet ventilation via a LMA with a jet converter
2. Jet ventilation via a rigid bronchoscope (traditional method)

Treatment time varies and lasts from 10 minutes to about 1 hour. For both treatments the Aldrete score at the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) is recorded. The observation for the patient ends when they are transferred from the PACU to the normal ward.
Primary Outcome(s)
Recovery after anesthesia, measured using the Aldrete score every 10 minutes for the first hour after admission to the PACU, every 15 minutes for the second hour, and every 30 minutes for the third hour
Secondary Outcome(s)

1. Time from anesthesia start until the end of the procedure
2. Anesthesia recovery time, defined as the time from the end of the procedure with removal of the bronchoscope until removal of the laryngeal mask
3. Diagnostic yield of EBUS-TBNA, defined as the percentage of patients for whom the procedure rendered a specific diagnosis
4. Device-related complications such as incorrect position of the LMA leading to difficulties in ventilation and gastric insufflation, difficulties to insert the rigid bronchoscope and excessive coughing that delays the procedure and requires additional medication
5. Anesthesia-related complications such as hypotension (defined as a drop in systolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg requiring intervention such as vasopressors or fluid), hypertension (an increase in mean arterial pressure > 30% from baseline longer than 5 minutes), hypoxemia (oxygen saturation < 90% for more than 1 minute), hypercarbia (PtcCO2 > 50 mmHg for more than 1 minute) and arrhythmia requiring antiarrhythmic medication
6. Severe EBUS-related complications such as bleeding, pneumothorax and mediastinitis
Measured throughout admission to the PACU
