Although a surgical resection may combine diagnosis and treatment, it may lead to excessive healthy tissue being removed if the lesion is difficult to localize. Bronchoscopic PPL marking before surgery facilitates this process, but it is limited by current technologies. Advances in procedural techniques may improve this process.</div></div><div><h3>Research Question</h3><div>What is the impact of using indocyanine green-soaked fiducial markers (ICG-Fs) to mark PPLs before surgery compared with unmarked resected PPLs?</div></div><div><h3>Study Design and Methods</h3><div>A retrospective review of patients from 4 institutions with PPLs undergoing bronchoscopy with ICG-F marking (54 nodules) before resection were compared with unmarked nodules (63 nodules). Demographic data, nodule characteristics, procedural and surgical information, and final pathology results were obtained.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>Demographics were similar between the groups. PPLs were smaller in the ICG-F marked group (axial: ICG-F marked: 14.39 ± 5.39 vs unmarked: 20.31 ± 14.24 mm; <em>P</em> = .0036; coronal: ICG-F marked: 12.66 ± 5.13 vs unmarked: 16.43 ± 10.51 mm; <em>P</em> = .0214).

We iteratively developed and refined tools used in a large, pragmatic trial. First, a stakeholder advisory committee (SAC) convened with members including individual patients and representatives from patient and health equity advocacy groups, community and government public health services, clinical program leads, and health system and insurance leaders. Second, we conducted a patient needs assessment to confirm or expand on SAC recommendations using semistructured interviews among patients meeting ≥ 1 medically underserved criteria who smoked tobacco daily. Transcribed interviews were coded and analyzed for patterns of patients’ desired design elements.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>The SAC recommended key strategies to promote cultural relevance of the tools, maximize engagement of participants, and prevent attrition, which were incorporated into the intervention and trial design. To further refine the approach, we completed interviews with 39 patients from November 2020 to September 2021. Many respondents used telemedicine tools with their clinicians yet were skeptical of their use for tobacco treatment due to lack of facility with mobile technologies. Patients recommended direct support options, avoidance of novel smartphone applications, and customizable features.</div></div><div><h3>Interpretation</h3><div>We provide a model for patient-centered design that incorporates community engagement through longitudinal advisors and wider representation of patients.
