In this episode of the podcast, we explore prehospital bronchoscopy—a true bleeding-edge concept—and where it fits in managing airway obstruction before the hospital. We talk mucous plugs, massive hemoptysis, refractory hypoxia, how to address obstructions you can't fix with pressure or bronchodilators, and what to do when bronchoscopy is likely unavailable. This isn't about chasing new tools—it's about physiology, pattern recognition, and knowing when innovation may help. When it comes to considering prehospital bronchoscopy in your system, ask yourself the following: Is this something we need? Can we do the training to support it?
