S1 Ep 1: Prof Martin Birchall on laryngological aspects of COVID-19 - a podcast by BLA Connections

Prof Martin Birchall joins Natalie Watson to record the first-ever episode of BLA Connections during lockdown sharing his insights into the laryngological aspects of COVID-19.

In this Episode

2:31 Question 1. COVID 19 seems to be markedly heterogenous in its clinical presentation ranging from people reporting no symptoms to multi-organ failure. From your experience what are the features of the COVID-19 infection in the larynx, pharynx and trachea that you have seen that the ENT community and others should be aware of?

9:20 Question 2. If you can, please share your experience of the micro-laryngoscopy and bronchoscopy of the patient that you have recently discussed.

14:30  Question 3. What are the implications for both the ventilated and non-ventilated patient?

26:06 Take-home message – ‘We need to work together to collect as much information as possible and share as much information as possible’.
