PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: Bronchoscopy is a common procedure, occasionally challenging.

Learning Objectives:

Recognize the role of simulation in adequate individual and team preparation for airway emergencies
Integrate tips from airway experts into the attendee's management algorithm
Avoid common bronchoscopy mistakes
