In this video, Dr. Sara Zak from Cincinnati Children's Hospital discusses the essential role of flexible bronchoscopy in the management of patients undergoing slide tracheoplasty. She covers its application during the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phases to ensure optimal outcomes.

Key Points:

Preoperative Use: Bronchoscopy helps assess airway anatomy, detect infections, and guide surgical planning for better outcomes.

Intraoperative Use: Ensures proper tube placement, visualizes the airway, and helps clear secretions to avoid complications.

Postoperative Care: Dr. Zak’s retrospective study highlights risk factors predicting the need for urgent bronchoscopy, especially in younger or sicker patients with congenital heart disease or prior airway surgeries.

Join us as we explore how flexible bronchoscopy supports patient care at every stage of slide tracheoplasty and helps reduce post-op complications.
