With the impending 'retirement' of bronchial thermoplasty (BT) for the treatment of patients with asthma, there is much to learn from this real-world experiment that will help us develop more effective future therapies with the same primary target i.e., airway smooth muscle (ASM) remodelling.

Critical care physicians are rich sources of innovation, developing new diagnostic, prognostic, and treatment tools they deploy in clinical practice, including novel software-based tools. Many of these tools are validated and promise to actively help patients, but physicians may be unlikely to distribute, implement, or share them with other centers noncommercially because of unsettled ethical, regulatory, or medicolegal concerns. This Viewpoint explores the potential barriers and risks critical care physicians face in disseminating device-related innovations for noncommercial purposes and proposes a framework for risk-based evaluation to foster clear pathways to safeguard equitable patient access and responsible implementation of clinician-generated technological innovations in critical care.
