If you've ever seen an overweight Yorkie honking like a goose, then there's a good chance you've dealt with tracheal collapse before.

It's a progressive and often challenging condition to manage and can make breathing a real struggle for our patients. But by managing these patients well and providing client education and support, we can make a significant difference to these patients.

Plus, in severe cases, there are some cool interventions we can perform - and therefore skills we can use - too!

In episode 69 of the Medical Nursing Podcast, we're going to break down what tracheal collapse is, who the patients most at risk are, how to stabilise, diagnose and treat them, and what we can do as nurses to support these cases.
