Episode 123 - To Treat or Not to Treat: Hypertension 1:00:03

21d ago1:00:03

1:00:03

It can be difficult to determine whether you should treat undifferentiated hypertension or not. Many clinicians are distracted the number rather than focusing on the patient in front of them. Asymptomatic hypertension, in particular, is often benign. In fact, treating asymptomatic hypertension in a patient who a primary medical history of hypertens…

Episode 122 - Stay Positive When Preoxygenating (PREOXI Trial) 1:01:23

1M ago1:01:23

1:01:23

The principles of preoxygenation and passive oxygenation should be familiar to any experienced intubator. Best practice recommends the use of a nasal cannula in conjunction with either a non-rebreather mask or bag-valve mask (BVM) to prevent hypoxemia during the apneic phase of Rapid Sequence Intubation (RSI). In the PREOXI Trial, the authors pushe…

Episode 121 - Outside the Box: Cardiac Arrest Management 46:51

3M ago46:51

46:51

Not all cardiac arrests are created equal. Whether the presenting rhythm is asystole, ventricular fibrillation, or PEA, these patients require tailored interventions beyond "blanket" protocol and ACLS/PALS algorithms. When refractory to conventional therapy, the pulseless V-Tach/V-Fib patient, in particular, requires critical thinking "outside the …

Episode 120 - Sorry, We Are Closed: Interfacility Transfers w/Austin Wingate 1:04:17

5M ago1:04:17

1:04:17

Interfacility transfers are not always indicated at the time and place of which they are being requested. Whether it's referring provider misinformation or a lack of advocacy by the transport agency, these transfers can result in unnecessary risk for crew members and patients. Specifically, weather conditions, time of day, crew fatigue, and other i…

Episode 119 - Losses and Gains: Antidiuretic Hormone 43:50

6M ago43:50

43:50

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) plays an essential part in the body's osmotic/fluid balance, sodium homeostasis, and blood pressure regulation. This hormone is synthesized in the hypothalamus and released from the posterior pituitary gland. In conditions such as Diabetes Insipidus (DI) and Syndrome of Inappropriate ADH (SIADH), there is a lack of synthe…

Episode 118 - Trigger Warning: Angioedema 46:54

8M ago46:54

46:54

Angioedema is defined by upper airway swelling secondary to an immune response. The trigger and subsequent physiological response are how we categorize it. In this podcast, we discuss how to diagnose and treat both types: IgE/Histamine-mediated and Bradykinin-mediated. We also touch on how to address the difficult airway that may or may not lead to…

Episode 117 - Dye or Die: Methylene Blue w/Will Heuser 50:56

9M ago50:56

50:56

When discussing methylene blue, management and treatment of methaemoglobinaemia is usually the first indication mentioned. But in this podcast, we challenge you to increase the size of your lense and focus on its benefits in other states (e.g., septic shock). Of course, we could not do this alone, so we invited a Flight Paramedic, Pharmacist, Toxic…

10M ago58:23

58:23

Though we have delved into foreign HEMS systems in the past (See Episode 61 – Down Under Dynamics w/Dr. Cliff Reid), we have not dedicated an entire series to it. Having now rubbed shoulders with many clinicians and operators around the world, it is evident that these conversations need to take place on a regular basis. Why? Because operating in a …

Episode 115 - Me, My Self-Loading Baggage, and I w/Miles Dunagan and Brett Reeder 1:06:59

11M ago1:06:59

1:06:59

"Self-loading baggage" is a derogatory term often used by pilots to describe lazy or disengaged medical crew members in the air medical industry. Whether intentional or not, this behavior sets a bad precedent for those of us that want to embrace aviation cross-training and be able to assist the pilot effectively. In this podcast episode, we are joi…

Episode 111 - Critical Comfort Care w/Brianna Fields 47:52

1y ago47:52

47:52

As a critical care clinician, do you consider yourself well-versed in comfort care? Do you consider yourself well-rehearsed in having the discussions leading up to the patient's or family's decision to implement it? This concept may be outside your comfort zone, especially if you work in emergency medicine. But the fact of the matter is, from the p…

Episode 110 - The Truth About A-Fib 43:49

1y ago43:49

43:49

Atrial fibrillation, particularly A-Fib with RVR (Rapid Ventricular Response), is often an emergency requiring emergent intervention beyond ACLS and its associated algorithms. Identification of A-Fib can be challenging in itself, much less trying to determine what intervention(s) are indicated. This includes chemical and/or electrical cardioversion…

Episode 104 - OMI, I Almost Died 37:55

1+ y ago37:55

37:55

Myocardial infarctions can present in a variety of ways depending on vessel involvement, timing of pathology, and interpretation of diagnostics (e.g., 12-lead EKG). Unfortunately, not every patient with a myocardial infarction will fit STEMI criteria's paradigm, which has lead to the adoption of a new term: OMI (Occlusion Myocardial Infarction). In…

52:49

No matter what level of scope, management of medical and traumatic cardiac arrests is the focus of many clinicians. But what happens after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) is achieved? Many do not appreciate the fact that the likeliness of re-arrest is high. How can we avoid return of spontaneous arrest by appropriately treating the patient…

Episode 102 - Long and Short of Learning w/Will Wingfield 56:01

2y ago56:01

56:01

The medical industry puts great emphasis on formal education via university and other training programs. Due to financial incentive, these institutions often discourage independent learning despite it usually having a greater impact on patient care quality. For example, paramedics are often non-degree holders, yet they effectively practice medicine…

36:23

Whether it's antibiotic-resistant "super bugs" or administration prior to acquiring blood cultures, empirical use of antibiotics is controversial. Should we be administering antibiotics in the prehospital environment for open long bone fractures and/or sepsis? When are antibiotics truly indicated?

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is always in the back of our minds when treating polytrauma patients. Unfortunately, the evidence has a controversial history. More and more, we are reminded of how a basic approach is much more important than other therapies that have little evidence to support their effectiveness. In fact, some may even cause harm. Tu…
