The origins of bronchoscopy date back to 1897 when Gustav Killian, considered “the father of bronchoscopy”, performed the first airway examination with a rigid esophagoscope to a farmer extracting a piece of bone that had lodged in the main stem bronchus.

متن کاملAerosolized antibiotics in mechanically ventilated patients.
Aerosolized antibiotics are potentially useful in intensive care. At State University of New York at Stony Brook we developed a human model of tracheobronchitis in intubated patients. The model provides daily specimens of airway secretions, allowing serial studies of airway inflammation and testing of therapy modes. The presence of local infection is defined by a unique method of quantified spu...
متن کاملPredictors of mortality in mechanically ventilated patients.
