Knowing how to respond to unanticipated intubation issues is a critical skill when delivering safe airway management. In this episode of MedEd Learning Experience, we’ll discuss how to plan for and effectively manage unexpected events. Here to provide insight is Dr. David Hsia, Director of Bronchoscopy and Interventional Pulmonology at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center at Torrance, CA. #MedtronicEmployee https://bit.ly/4h3xfxy

Unwarrented variation in clinical practice can compromise consistency of care and outcomes. The new science of #drainology represents an opportunity for quality improvement.

Professor James Hull, Zander Williams and the interventional bronchoscopy team at Royal Brompton have trialled a world-first method that allows clinicians to assess the movement of the large airways during physical activity. Traditionally, bronchoscopy is performed at rest and with people performing forced breathing out manoeuvres, but this new technique – termed continuous bronchoscopy during exercise (CBE) – permits an assessment of the airways during exercise. It has been demonstrated that the CBE technique can be undertaken in healthy participants and allows visualisation of the large airways during progressive exercise. The next steps will be to undergo CBE in patients with suspected or a confirmed diagnosis of large airway collapse. We think it will provide new insight into the assessment of patients with unexplained breathlessness and provide a new method of visualising large airway movement during progressive exercise.
