  • Title: High-risk bronchoscopy.
    Author: Flores RM, Sugarbaker DJ.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2000 May; 69(5):1604-5. PubMed ID: 10881862.
    Abstract:
    Fiberoptic bronchoscopy may be performed in patients with acute respiratory distress after thoracic surgical procedures as a measure to avoid intubation and subsequent positive-pressure ventilation in a patient with mucous impaction or as a method of intubating in a patient with a difficult airway. We describe the indications, the technique, and the potential complications.
