CFMD is back after summer with a primer on NIV.  Getting rid of the terms BiPAP and CPAP, understanding the terms IPAP and EPAP/PEEP, and which you need in failure of oxygenation vs failure of ventilation patients, hopefully will help you start utilizing this technology to its most effective.  Just the basics in this one!!!

In the first half of this episode, CFMD takes on point of care ultrasound and if/how it fits into the rural setting.  Also discussed are concepts about considering, initiating and maintaining an ultrasound program in the critical access setting.  The second half of the episode takes you through a case involving a vascular injury to an extremity in a remote setting....ENJOY!!!

CFMD gets back to his family practice roots with a dive into the treatment of migraines.  Take a listen to CFMDs approach to catching, setting realistic goals and expectations, prophylactic and abortive regimens, as well as taking that knowledge into the ED.  You will also get his approach to treating the ED patient and using that clinic based approach.  Multimodal and multifactorial are key concepts.  And a hint-narcotics are a rarity........
