Description
Hemoptysis can be a scary thing to encounter in medicine and massive hemoptysis - i.e. life threatening hemoptysis - is a serious emergency that often requires cognitive agility and technical prowess. Join Nick & Cyrus as they talk with Dr. Whittney Warren - an intensivist and interventional pulmonologist - who walks us through her pragmatic approach to life-threatening hemoptysis.

Listen to this first CCT episode of 2024 and find out!  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
