Host Aimee Faith Ho, MD, MPH, FACEP, welcomes Dr. Utsha Khatri to discuss the clinical and ethical nuances of caring for incarcerated patients, as also explored in the ACEP Now article, “Carceral Health and the Emergency Department.” Dr. Khatri, an assistant professor of emergency medicine and health services researcher, shares pearls for navigating the presence of correctional officers while re-centering the patient through dignity and medical autonomy. Additional highlights from this episode include coverage of the emergency medicine residency match, preparations for the FIFA World Cup, and updates on Medicaid work requirement changes. Dr. Ho also previews clinical features on endometriosis management, forensic training in the ED, and new guidelines for asymptomatic hypertension.

Host Amy Faith Ho, MD, MPH, FACEP, welcomes Dr. Matt Lipton to discuss his ACEP Now article, “IV Iron in the ED: The Time is Now,” which advocates for treating iron deficiency anemia without automatic RBC transfusions in hemodynamically stable patients. Dr. Lipton explains the immediate bioavailability of IV iron compared to blood products and addresses modern safety profiles regarding anaphylaxis and the “Fishbane reaction.” Additional highlights include a case report on adolescent headaches and a guide to evaluating locum tenens physicians.

Menopause is not just “hot flashes”—it is a systemic hormonal shift that affects almost every organ system. For the emergency clinician, recognizing the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause is crucial for expanding the differential diagnosis once life-threatening conditions are ruled out. Dr. Pam Dyne joins us for a crash course on evaluating menopausal and perimenopausal patients in the ED. The “Why”: Why Menopause Matters in the ED The Mimic: Menopausal symptoms can mimic emergencies, including cardiac events, neurologic issues, and acute musculoskeletal injuries. The “Nothing Bad” Trap: After a negative workup (e.g., for chest pain or abdominal pain), telling a patient “everything is normal” often leaves them without answers. Identifying menopause as a potential etiology provides patient-centered closure and a path to treatment. Empowerment: Many medical providers are insufficiently trained when it come to menopause – ED clinicians can help patients advocate for themselves. Physiology Refresher: When the Ovaries Retire The Signal: Prior to menopause, the brain sends FSH/LH to the ovaries, and the ovaries answer with estrogen. The Shift: In menopause, the ovaries “retire.” The brain keeps shouting (higher FSH levels), but the ovaries don't respond. Perimenopause: Hormones fluctuate wildly, cycles become irregular, and symptoms are often at their peak due to inconsistency. Hormone Therapy (MHT): Debunking the Myths A major barrier to treatment is the “mass hysteria” caused by the 2002 Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study. The Correction: Modern re-analysis shows that for healthy females under 60 and within 10 years of menopause, hormone therapy is extremely safe. (There are some exceptions, including females at high risk for certain cancers) The Benefits: It has been shown to reduce all-cause mortality by 30% and has many potential health benefits, including lower the risk of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and osteoporotic fractures. The Difficult Pelvic Exam: ED “Hacks” Examining older female patients can be challenging for myriad reasons, including physical limitations and lack of proper ED pelvic exam gurneys. The Upside-Down Speculum: If you can’t use stirrups, keep the patient flat on the bed. Turn the speculum upside down (handle facing up) so it doesn’t hit the gurney. Tip: Push down on the handle; don’t pull up like a laryngoscope. Lateral Decubitus: Perform the exam with the patient on their side (top leg held up) if they cannot flex their hips. Comfort: Use liberal lubrication and consider topical lidocaine gel. The “Hidden” Problem: Always check for old/forgotten pessaries or fecal impaction in cases of pelvic pain or recurrent UTIs. Clinical Pearls: Specific Presentations 1. Post-Menopausal Bleeding Rule: Cancer until proven otherwise. Workup: Speculum exam (confirm source) + Ultrasound (measure endometrial thickness) + Endometrial biopsy (usually outpatient). 2. Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM) Symptoms: Vaginal dryness, thinning tissue, pH changes, and recurrent UTIs (≥3 culture-proven UTIs in 12 months or ≥2 in 6 months). ED Treatment: ED docs can and should prescribe vaginal estrogen cream. It is not absorbed systemically and is highly effective at preventing future UTIs. 3. Pelvic Organ Prolapse Types: Cystocele (bladder), Rectocele (rectum), or Uterine prolapse. Exam Tip: Symptoms are often gravity-dependent. If you don’t see the bulge while the patient is supine, ask them to bear down. 4. Musculoskeletal (MSK) Syndrome of Menopause Presentation: atraumatic joint pain, tendinopathies. Cause: Estrogen receptors are located throughout the MSK system; loss of estrogen leads to inflammation and ligamentous changes. Key Takeaways for the ED Clinician Keep menopause on your differential: Don't dismiss vague aches, mood changes, or urinary issues in women aged 45–60 as “just stress.” Look at the Problem: If a patient has pelvic pain or bleeding, do the exam. You might find a simple fix, like a forgotten pessary or local atrophy. Connect to Care: If you suspect menopause is the culprit, point them toward menopause.org to find a certified practitioner.

In this episode I speak with Cedric Dark MD MPH, an emergency medicine physician and healthcare policy expert, about gun violence in America. June is Gun Violence Awareness month. Our conversation focuses on prevention, advocacy, and content from his book Under the Gun: An ER Doctor's Cure for America's Gun Epidemic Cedric is an Associate Professor in the Henry J. N. Taub Department of Emergency Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. He currently is on the Board of Trustees for Semester at Sea and is the Medical Editor-in-Chief for the monthly publication ACEP Now. From 2019 to 2024 he served on the Board of Directors for Doctors for America. Cedric argues that gun violence is a public health issue that healthcare workers are uniquely positioned to address. He explains how mental health factors into gun violence discussions and why access to firearms increases suicide risk. The conversation touches on how advocacy work can help healthcare workers deal with burnout and how organizations like Doctors for America approach health policy change.  If you enjoy the show, please leave a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating on Apple or a
