Bronchoscopic visualization system power supplies have defective semiconductor components that may fail unexpectedly, which could result in an aborted procedure since it is a non recoverable failure. Manual removal of the bronchoscope when the system is not functioning can increase the chance of injury to the tissues of the lung as the scope is withdrawn including the possibility of pneumothorax.

Bronchoscopic system uninterruptable power may have defective component, may cause power supply short circuit/trip protective circuit breakers causing sudden, unrecoverable power loss, which could occur while system is on mains or internal battery power; if during procedure, could cause interrupted/aborted procedure, may necessitate manual removal, which could lead to lung injury/pneumothorax.
