  • Cardiac Arrest: Can Naloxone Help?

    17/10/2024 Duração: 13min

    As emergency physicians, we are very familiar with giving naloxone to patients with concern for opioid overdose. Our EMS colleagues give naloxone all the time in the prehospital setting. We know it works well for patients who are obtained due to opioids, but what about for patients who have an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest? Our expert on todays episode, Dr. David Dillon, set out to find out.  Were you surprised by the findings in Dr. Dillon’s study? Does it change your practice?

  • Sent to the ED

    18/08/2024 Duração: 35min

    Many of our ED patients come in because they were told to. Whether it’s by an advice nurse, primary care provider, urgent care, call center, specialty coordinator, etc., it often feels to us like the default is “go to the ED”. But, of course, that’s not the case. There are myriad reasons why patients may be sent to the ED. In this episode, we talk with two of our favorite outpatient physicians - a Pediatrician and an Internist - about when and why they refer patients to the ED, as well as what they do to try to keep them out of the ED!  Did you learn something new?

  • OB in the ED: what would ACOG do?

    16/06/2024

    Managing pregnant patients in the ED can be stressful - especially because you have (at least) two patients to think about! Emergency physicians are generally comfortable managing first trimester emergencies but are less familiar with complications in the later stages of pregnancy. It is these complications that contribute in part to the maternal health crisis in the US. In this episode, we delve into the realm of obstetric emergencies in the ED with Dr. Jenna White, an EM physician with a special interest in OB. She introduces us to resources developed by the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) to help ED providers identify common pathologies and navigate high-stakes scenarios, including screening for cardiovascular disorders, managing hypertension, and tackling the dreaded eclampsia. How does your ED manage OB emergencies? Have you implemented the ACOG algorithms?

  • Navigating Breastfeeding As An EM Physician

    06/05/2024

    Navigating breastfeeding as an EM physician In the previous two episodes, we explored some of the challenges related to fertility and pregnancy for EM physicians. In the final episode of our three part series, we take it one step further to discuss yet another challenge: breastfeeding. Of course, fed is always best, and there are many reasons to formula feed, but providing breastmilk is very important to many families. For EM physicians, choosing to breastfeed usually means figuring out how to pump and store milk while you’re on shift. This can be daunting, especially for residents and junior physicians. How do you find time to sneak away? Is there an easily accessible pumping room close by? Will you feel supported by colleagues and your department? We cover these questions and much more with experts, Dr. Claire Abramoff, and Dr. Shada Rouhani.  Does your ED have policies to support breastfeeding and pumping?

  • Navigating Pregnancy As An EM Physician

    03/04/2024 Duração: 31min

    Pregnancy is common during medical training and in the early years as an attending physician, as these stages often align with individuals’ reproductive potential. The experience can vary widely depending on factors such as workplace dynamics, scheduling, and the physical demands of the job. But let’s be real - running around a busy ED while carrying extra weight, feeling nauseated (maybe vomiting), and managing all of the physical and emotional changes that come with pregnancy is a real challenge that many of us have lived. There are numerous considerations to navigate, from how we wish to be perceived as a team member to the risks posed by the workload on our bodies. Additionally, departmental or hospital policies may have financial implications that further complicate the situation. Join us as and Dr. Katren Tyler - EM physician and mother of two - as we break it all down. This the second episode in our three part series on infertility, pregnancy and breastfeeding as an Emergency Physician. If  you missed

  • PHOENIX: a better way to look at peds sepsis

    04/03/2024 Duração: 22min

    If you practice in emergency medicine you probably live on the look out for sepsis.  You likely follow the 2016 Sepsis-3 guidelines for adults which really was a paradigm shift from an infection-associated SIRS, to infection-associated organ dysfunction with the SOFA score or sequential organ failure assessment score of at least 2 points in patients with suspected infection. However, the definition of sepsis in kids was not updated at that time in part because SOFA was not studied in children. That means that our current pediatric guidelines are from 2005! Good news though! The Phoenix sepsis criteria for sepsis and septic shock in children were derived and validated by the international SCCM Pediatric Sepsis Definition Task Force and we interviewed two of the task force members to help us operationalize it on our podcast.

  • Sickle Cell in the ED: Part 3

    19/02/2024 Duração: 29min

    People living with sickle cell disease can experience severe “pain crises”, or vaso-occlusive episodes (VOE), and are at increased risk for infections, strokes, heart failure, and other serious disease processes. When patients are out sickle cell present to the ED, it is crucial to initiate their evaluation and treatment as soon as possible. So what does this mean practically for us as clinicians? Hematologist and Sickle Cell expert, Dr. Bimpe Adesina, and Emergency Physician and researcher, Dr. Bryn Mumma, join us to explore this topic in depth.  In part 1, we delved into assessment and management of patients presenting with VOE. In part 2, we spoke with Dr. Chris Rees about the benefits of early opioid pain control for kids presenting with VOE.   In the final episode of our series we’re back with Dr. Mumma and Dr. Adesina to discuss the management of other emergent presentations related to sickle cell disease.
