Thank you fractured for the info. I'm thinking about getting the valves but would like to hear from others who have had the procedure.

Avatar 1948, I myself have not had the Valves but would def consider it down the road if a candidate. Wanted to share this info about Dr. Gerard Criner @ Temple Lung Center in Philadelphia.
“ The Temple Lung Center is a world leader in the testing and use of endobronchial valves for bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) in patients with severe emphysema. We have the most experience of any other hospital in the country.”

I had met with Dr Criner for a consult for the RheOx clinical trial for chronic bronchitis, was accepted & had both lungs done there.
