Lynn D’Andrea ’83 Featured in “Big Vape” Documentary
- Sep. 27, 2024
Lynn D’Andrea ’83, professor and chief of pediatric pulmonary and sleep medicine at the Medical College of Wisconsin/Children’s Wisconsin is featured in the Netflix documentary Big Vape; The Rise and Fall of Juul. Dr. D’Andrea, a pulmonologist, is featured in episode four of the docuseries recounting the day in July 2019 when a team of providers at Children’s Wisconsin connected a cluster of patients in the hospital with severe lung injury to vaping. They proactively warned the community about the potential danger of vaping. This warning quickly ignited a worldwide conversation that led to a better understanding of the hospitalizations and deaths caused by e-cigarette, or vaping, product use-associated lung injury (EVALI). She shares the Children’s Wisconsin experience of caring for adolescents who would eventually be diagnosed with EVALI, a vaping-related lung injury. The work was published in Pediatric Pulmonary 2020 (55)7:1712-1718.
