Abstract

Bronchoscopy has long been regarded as a specialized procedure done in settings other than the emergency department. However recent advancements have brought to light the significance of the use of bronchoscopy in emergency medicine situations and in emergency critical care. The indications, contraindications and techniques have been well documented in recent times. This article looks at real time data on bronchoscopy performed in the emergency department in a case series format to look at on field and on site uses and data interpretation to help improve the service in the emergency setting.
