E-cigarette, or Vaping, Product Use-Associated Lung Injury-Lessons Learned: A Case Series.

E-cigarette, or vaping, product use has been declared an epidemic, and a new disease has emerged from their use. We describe 4 patients with significant acute lung injury related to e-cigarette use who underwent bronchoscopy and bronchoalveolar lavage. All cases posed anesthetic challenges, including increased airway reactivity, hypoxia, increasing oxygen requirements, and, in 2 severe cases, the need for continued postprocedural mechanical ventilatory support.
