Did you know your mouth is a mirror of your overall health? In today's episode, holistic dentist Dr. Michelle Jorgensen joins Dr. Krause to uncover the hidden connections between your oral health and chronic conditions like fatigue, hormone imbalance, and even cancer risk. A former traditional dentist, Dr. Jorgensen's own battle with mercury toxicity changed the course of her life and practice. Now she helps patients heal at the cellular level by starting where true health begins: the mouth. If you're tired of chasing health trends and still not feeling better, this episode will help you uncover the root causes you might be missing.

Discover how collaborative learning, well-designed simulation, and fostering a culture of psychological safety are transforming prehospital airway care. National EMS Quality Alliance's (NEMSQA) Airway Collaborative organized EMS agencies from across the country to analyze their current practices and explore ways to improve the safety and effectiveness of airway management. Join hosts Maia Dorsett and Hilary Gates as we explore why education alone isn't enough for sustained improvement, highlighting the crucial role of system design and a patient-centered approach. Guests from the collaborative include Shawn Brinkley, Matt Francis, Tom Grawey and Marlow Macht. They share candid insights from their agencies, discussing how data revealed surprising performance gaps and spurred a paradigm shift towards optimizing patient outcomes over simply “getting the tube.” Listen in for invaluable lessons on how to cultivate a system where the expectation is a patient managed carefully by EMS to be truly optimized for the best outcome possible.  Ginger Locke highlights the episode's key points with her "Mindset Minute."

This episode will teach you! Dr. Jaz Gulati shares his personal journey into incorporating sleep testing in practice—after 1.5 years of doing it, the impact has been nothing short of game-changing. https://youtu.be/H4rTkIuOHWI Watch PDP243 on Youtube Joined by clinical sleep scientist Max Thomas in this jam-packed episode, they deep dive into what it really means to go beyond awareness of sleep-disordered breathing. He breaks down the practical steps for dentists who want to do more than just refer—and start making a difference in their patients' lives. You'll learn how to bridge the gap between theory and action, how to screen effectively, and why you play a pivotal role in the patient's journey to better sleep, more energy, and a healthier life. Protrusive Dental Pearl: If a patient has been seen gasping, choking, or stopping breathing during sleep — that's pathognomonic for sleep-disordered breathing.

Dr. Eric Morrell sits down with Dr. Maude Liegeois to discuss her paper, "Airway Macrophages Encompass Transcriptionally and Functionally Distinct Subsets Altered by Smoking."

Early airway health can shape your child's long-term development more than you think. In this episode, myofunctional therapist and dental hygienist Caity Hart joins me to break down what parents need to know about expanders, guided growth appliances and how the mouth and airway are connected. We explore how structural oral issues like crowded teeth, mouth breathing and tongue posture can influence sleep, behavior and even facial development. Caity explains the difference between fixed and removable expanders, how to know if your child is a candidate and the importance of early assessment. We also talk about what to expect during treatment, how bodywork supports the process and why nasal breathing is a key to lifelong health. This conversation is packed with empowering insights for parents who want to be proactive, not reactive, when it comes to their child's oral and airway development.

Welcome to the Part Time Pilot Audio Ground School Podcast! This podcast takes our free podcast to a whole new level by providing students with every single lesson included in the Part Time Pilot Private Pilot & IFR Ground Schools without a single Ad! On top of that, VIP podcast students get BONUS episodes like Mock Checkrides, Checkride Prep, Expert Interviews and more!   The #1 reason student pilots never end up becoming a private pilot is NOT due to money. The real reason is actually deeper than that. Yes, flight training is expensive. But every student pilot knows this and budgets for it when they decide to do it.   The actual #1 reason a student pilot fails is because they do not have a good, fundamental understanding of the private pilot knowledge they are meant to learn in ground school.   You see when a student does not have a good grasp of this knowledge they get to a point in their flight training where their mind just can't keep up. They start making mistakes and having to redo lessons. And THAT is when it starts getting too expensive.   This audio ground school is meant for the modern day student pilot... aka the part time student pilot. Let's face it, the majority of us have full time responsibilities on top of flight training. Whether it is a job, kids, family, school, etc. we all keep ourselves busy with the things that are important to us. And with today's economy we have to maintain that job just to pay for the training. The modern day student pilot is busy, on the go and always trying to find time throughout his or her day to stay up on their studies. The audio ground school allows them to consume high quality content while walking, running, working out, sitting in traffic, traveling, or even just a break from the boring FAR/AIM or ground school lecture.   Did I meant high quality content? The audio ground school is taken straight out of the 5-star rated Part Time Pilot Online Ground School that has had over 2000 students take and pass their Private Pilot & IFR exams with only 2 total students failing the written. That's a 99.9% success rate! And the 2 that failed? We refunded their cost of ground school and helped them pass on their second attempt. We do this by keeping ground school engaging, fun, light and consumable. We have written lessons, videos, audio lessons, live video lessons, community chats, quizzes, practice tests, flash cards, study guides, eBooks and much more.   Part Time Pilot was created to be a breath of fresh air for student pilots. To be that flight training provider that looks out for them and their needs. So that is just what we are doing with this podcast.     IFR Section 5 Lesson 6: In this FREE Online Ground School lesson for IFR we are going to talk about IFR Airway Altitudes. So far, we have just briefly mentioned the definitions of altitudes such as the MEA or the MOCA. Well, there are more altitudes we need to know and we need to dive deeper into what they are and how IFR pilots will use them in IFR Flight Plans.    Links mentioned in the episode:   IFR Airway Altitudes Video: https://youtu.be/UcmBlcYVloM    Private Pilot Online Ground School: PPL Ground School - Part Time Pilot Checkride Prep: PPL Checkride Prep - Part Time Pilot IFR Online Ground School: IFR Ground School – Part Time Pilot   PPL study group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/parttimepilot  IFR study group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/parttimepilotifr/   Recommended Products & Discounts:  https://parttimepilot.com/recommended-products-for-student-pilots/

Episode 74 - Guideline Spotlight - Stents for Benign Central Airway Obstruction by AABIP

Welcome back to September's Papers of the Month. We've got three cracking studies for you this time, each tackling really core questions in pre-hospital and emergency care and each giving us plenty to chew over when it comes to the evidence base and what it means for our practice. First up, we're heading down under to Sydney with the PRECARE pilot feasibility study on pre-hospital extracorporeal CPR for refractory cardiac arrest. Now, we all know survival from refractory OHCA is pretty dismal with conventional CPR alone, and that the big limiting factor with ECPR is time to flow. So could we meaningfully shorten that window by bringing ECMO to the roadside rather than the hospital? This study tested whether pre-hospital physicians could safely and effectively deliver ECPR on scene and the results are some of the fastest low-flow times yet reported. But of course, feasibility is only one piece of the puzzle… Next, we're back in the UK with a service evaluation from Devon Air Ambulance looking at endotracheal intubation by critical care paramedics during cardiac arrest. Airway management in OHCA has always been a hot topic, with long-running debates over supraglottic devices versus intubation, and questions about who should be putting a tube in. This six-year dataset explores how structured education, theatre placements, and the introduction of video laryngoscopy have changed practice and whether CCPs can consistently meet the ERC's benchmark of 95% success, or more, within two attempts.  And finally, we're heading to Switzerland with a study on the HOPE score in hypothermic cardiac arrest. Hypothermia remains one of those rare but high-stakes presentations where patients in cardiac arrest can sometimes make remarkable recoveries if we select the right ones for extracorporeal rewarming. The HOPE score is designed to guide those decisions by predicting survival. This study takes a retrospective cohort across two hospitals and asks: does the score actually deliver in real-world practice, and can it help avoid futile attempts at ECLS? So, three papers, ECMO on the roadside, paramedic-led intubation in cardiac arrest, and the precision of the HOPE score. As ever, plenty to think about for both the evidence and our day-to-day practice. Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon & Rob

Thoracic anesthesia is one of the most complex and high-stakes specialties in medicine, where the airway may literally be open on the table, and every breath depends on seamless teamwork. In this episode of Anesthesia Alchemy, Lynn and Garry welcome Dr. Melissa Puskac, a CRNA and thoracic anesthesia expert, to unpack the challenges and breakthroughs that define this field. From carinal resections and sleeve lobectomies to esophagectomies and mediastinal mass surgeries, Dr. Puskac explains how modern techniques like cross-field ventilation, high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV), and ECMO are transforming survival and recovery. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:  

In this episode of the Inside EMS podcast, hosts Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson dive headfirst into one of paramedic's most anxiety-inducing scenarios: the pediatric airway. Despite decades of advancement, pediatric codes still strike fear into the hearts of even the most seasoned medics. So why hasn't this gotten any easier? Drawing on their own experience (plus a few nods to Dr. Peter Antevy), the duo emphasize the urgent need for high-fidelity simulation training, ongoing QA and competency-based training. This episode's packed with insights, strong opinions and a healthy dose of tough love for EMS systems that continue to send underprepared crews into high-stakes situations. If you've ever broken into a cold sweat over a pediatric call, this episode is for you. Memorable quotes "When a mother hands you a 3-month-old in cardiac arrest, that's not the time to figure out you're uncomfortable." — Chris Cebollero “If you want the medic to intubate kids, you need cadaver labs, you need high fidelity simulation. You need to practice and you need to QA that practice. Most systems just can't provide that and without regular exposure, intubation becomes unsafe. And that's why I'd argue if you can't maintain your competency, you shouldn't carry the skill.” — Chris Cebollero “Kids aren't little adults. They do have more challenges. They do have bigger tongues. They do have floppier epiglottis, they do have smaller airways.” — Chris Cebollero Enjoying the show?

Dr. Rebecca Bockow is a highly skilled clinician who has achieved dual board certification as both a Periodontist and Orthodontist.Her exceptional expertise and dedication have allowed her to build a thriving practice, even in a challenging market.Dr. Bockow's success can be attributed to her ability to seamlessly integrate scientifically-based airway orthodontics into her practice, as well as her remarkable ability to balance a busy professional and personal life.While airway orthodontics has gained some recognition and acceptance, it is important to acknowledge that there are orthodontists who remain skeptical about this approach.Some orthodontists express skepticism due to what they claim is relatively limited scientific evidence supporting the efficacy of airway orthodontics.They argue that more robust studies and long-term data are needed to establish the effectiveness and durability of these treatments.I was one of these skeptics for a long time until Dr. Rebecca Bockow managed to open my eyes with the help of mainstream literature from places like Stanford, which is as compelling and legitimate as anything I've seen in orthodontics.In this episode in our Greatest Hits series, we get the chance to hear Dr. Bockow take us through Airway Orthodontics, the literature behind it, how it differentiates your practice, and, most importantly, the life-changing impact it has on our patients.Tune in!Key TakeawaysMeet Dr. Rebecca Bockow (01:31)The secret sauce to stand out and grow your practice (08:46)Interdisciplinary cases to set you apart (10:30)What exactly is Airway Orthodontics?

The Truth About Aligners, Airway & Occlusion—From a Guy Who Practices in Two CountriesIn this episode, I sit down with my good friend, Dr. Bruce McFarlane—one of the most respected names in digital orthodontics and someone who's mastered the art of practicing seamlessly in two different countries. We dive deep into clear aligners, digital efficiencies, occlusion philosophy, and why airway awareness in children is no longer optional.Whether you're just starting to build your aligner practice or you're scaling your ortho empire, Bruce's insights will challenge what you think you know about clinical protocols, patient care, and long-term outcomes. This isn't fluff—it's a masterclass in doing ortho the right way.QUOTES"The teeth will tell you what they need—so stop asking aligners to do things they weren't designed to do."— Dr. Bruce McFarlane"If you're not at least assessing the airway in children, you're not practicing 2025 orthodontics."— Dr. Glenn KriegerKey TakeawaysIntro (00:00)Bruce's dual-country practice model & digital workflow (04:10)The evolution of clear aligners from 1997 to today (13:17)Why he avoids excessive IPR and attachments (16:12)The digital boutique model vs. the big-box practice (23:17)How Bruce designs treatment from anywhere in the world (25:16)His 3 biggest aligner treatment rules (19:48)Airway awareness and its clinical impact on kids (30:02)The future of occlusion & the ModJaw revolution (36:25)Why poor occlusion is often behind the cases that keep you up at night (39:05)If you're ready to rethink how you approach aligners, occlusion, and the future of digital ortho, this episode is your roadmap.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis and Jeff delve into the complexities of anoxic brain injury, discussing its causes, recovery processes, and prevention strategies in tactical environments. They emphasize the importance of maintaining oxygen levels, effective airway management, and addressing hypotension and hypoxia. The conversation highlights the critical role of preventing secondary brain injuries and the significance of basic medical interventions in saving lives.TakeawaysAnoxic brain injury is caused by a lack of oxygen to the brain.The brain requires oxygen to function, and deprivation leads to cell death.Recovery from brain injuries can take time and various therapies.Prevention strategies in tactical environments are crucial to avoid anoxic brain injury.Monitoring oxygen levels is vital in emergency situations.Airway management decisions should be based on the patient's condition and available skills.Hypotension and hypoxia must be addressed promptly to prevent further injury.Secondary brain injuries can be prevented with proper care and monitoring.Treating pain and agitation is important to reduce intracranial pressure.Basic medical interventions can save lives in critical situations.Chapters00:00 Understanding Anoxic Brain Injury02:56 Recovery and Rehabilitation Process05:27 Prevention Strategies in Tactical Environments10:09 Monitoring and Maintaining Oxygen Levels16:48 Airway Management Decisions20:01 Addressing Hypotension and Hypoxia26:56 Preventing Secondary Brain InjuriesThank you to Delta Development Team for in part, sponsoring this podcast.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠deltadevteam.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠⁠

Airway management in the prehospital environment is difficult just by virtue of where we are doing it and the lack of resources available to help us manage the difficulties. Add to that a patient with mangled facial anatomy or is dangerously peri-arrest due to hemorrhage and the danger can seem insurmountable. What the research tells us is that there are really three big buckets of problems in airway management that contribute to morbidity and mortality: hypoxia, hypotension and multiple intubation attempts; this is the stuff that airway nightmares are made of.

Angioedema – Recognition and Management in the ED Hosts: Maria Mulligan-Buckmiller, MD Brian Gilberti, MD https://media.blubrry.com/coreem/content.blubrry.com/coreem/Angioedema.mp3 Download Leave a Comment Tags: Airway Show Notes Definition & Pathophysiology Angioedema = localized swelling of mucous membranes and subcutaneous tissues due to increased vascular permeability. Triggers increased vascular permeability → fluid shifts into tissues. Etiologies Histamine-mediated (anaphylaxis) Associated with urticaria/hives, pruritus, and redness. Triggered by allergens (foods, insect stings, medications). Rapid onset (minutes to hours). Bradykinin-mediated Hereditary angioedema (HAE): C1 esterase inhibitor deficiency (autosomal dominant). Acquired angioedema: Associated with B-cell lymphoma, autoimmune disease, MGUS. Medication-induced: Most commonly ACE inhibitors; rarely ARBs. Typically lacks urticaria and itching. Gradual onset, can last days if untreated. Idiopathic angioedema Unknown cause; diagnosis of exclusion. Clinical Presentations Swelling Asymmetric, non-pitting, usually non-painful. May involve lips, tongue, face, extremities, GI tract. Respiratory compromise Upper airway swelling → stridor, dyspnea, sensation of throat closure. Airway obstruction is the most feared complication. Abdominal manifestations

Hormones can be wild, especially in perimenopause and menopause, and sometimes it feels like no one talks about just how much they mess with your mind, mood, and energy. But there's a real science behind why things feel off, and it's not all in your head. I sat down with my friend and hormone expert, Dr. Betty Murray, to talk about the gut-brain-hormone connection and why it's such a big deal for women in this season of life. She's not only a Functional Medicine Pioneer with over 20 years of experience, she's also the Founder of The Menrva Project, a game-changing platform rethinking menopause care. We talk about the stuff most doctors skip, why testing your hormones (not just guessing!) matters, how your gut health plays into your symptoms, and how stress totally hijacks your body. Dr. Betty shares what she's seeing work in real time with her clients and why truly personalized care makes all the difference. If you've ever been told “it's just aging” or felt brushed off, this one's for you. She also gives some real-life tips like what to eat, what to watch out for, and simple things that can actually help you feel like yourself again. It's not about fixing you (because you're not broken) but about understanding what your body needs in this new chapter. Whether you're just starting to notice changes or you're deep in the hormone rollercoaster, there's something here for you. And if you're looking for something fun (and seriously good for you), I've been loving the new Mighty Maca Mango! It's everything I love about Mighty Maca Plus, but with a zesty mango twist that's perfect for summer. Try it with sparkling water, pour it over ice, or even make popsicles with the kids. It's delicious and loaded with the good stuff your body will thank you for. You can check it out at dranna.com.   Key Timestamps: [00:00:00] Introduction.

When seconds matter, preparation saves lives. Today's case study involving a 47-year-old man with severe obesity and obstructive sleep apnea is a great example of that. When a routine EGD resulted in rapid hypoxia shortly after sedation after conventional methods failed, it was the McMurray Enhanced Airway that made all the difference. Sharon shares the experience in this episode and we invited Roxanne McMurray, DNP, CRNA, APRN, FAANA back to the show to talk about how this novel airway tool is changing the game for CRNAs. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:

Too often, parents are told their child will “grow out of it.” Snoring? Normal. Grinding? Just a phase. Bedwetting? Don't worry about it. But what if those symptoms are actually red flags—and you've been dismissed over and over? In this episode of Dentistry Disrupted, Dr. Craig Clayton is joined by airway health pioneer Dr. Shereen Lim, author of Breathe, Sleep, Thrive, for a conversation that will resonate with every parent who's ever felt unheard. Dr. Lim shares how her own experience as a mom—and hearing stories from dismissed and desperate parents—drove her to write a book that connects the dots. Because parents don't need another brush-off, they need tools, information, and the confidence to trust their gut and take action. This episode is your permission slip to dig deeper. To question. To advocate. We're at a tipping point. Just over a decade ago, Dr. Lim was almost blocked from speaking at a university conference because her airway-focused approach was seen as “outside the norm.” Today, her clinic is so full she's had to close her books—and more providers are waking up to the importance of early intervention. The movement is happening, and parents like you are leading the charge.

In this episode, I'm joined by the brilliant and bold Katrina Sanders, RDH, BSDH, M.Ed, RF, to talk about the power of airway awareness from the hygiene chair—even when you're not a myofunctional therapist.Katrina shares how hygienists can recognize early signs of airway dysfunction, confidently start the conversation with patients, and become a powerful part of the collaborative care team without stepping outside their scope.We explore:•What airway screening looks like in real-time clinical practice•How to refer out when myo or sleep support is needed•How to overcome pushback from providers or patients•Why every hygienist should be the first line of defense in identifying airway dysfunctionIf you've been feeling the pull toward airway health—but aren't sure where you fit in—this conversation will leave you feeling empowered, informed, and inspired to take action right from the op.

Claudio Milstein, PhD joins the podcast to discuss the concept of unified care in managing voice, swallowing, and upper airway disorders. Dr. Milstein explains the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in optimizing patient outcomes and shares details about an exciting upcoming CME on unified care.

Ronda Holman is The Airway Champion. She is the Co-Founder of Airway Coach a revolutionary approach to helping humans learn to help themselves breathe better while they sleep by developing protocols and systems to be preformed daily. She is a 25 year, US Airforce trained, dental assistant who has spent her entire career looking at airway disorders and their negative effects in the mouth.She has dedicated the last  5 years helping patients and strangers understand the negative affects of oral breathing on their oral health. Ronda runs the airway protocol for her general dental practice helping patients rule out sleep apnea and find custom solutions to breathe better while they sleep.Ronda not only has a passion to help people discovered the root cause to so many non-communicable diseases, but she grew up with an undiagnosed airway disorder herself. After connecting the signs to the symptoms it is her mission to help others learn to see the signs so they can advocate for themselves. Many people do not understand the bio mechanics a breathing. Nor do they understand the detrimental effects over breathing/mouth breathing has on sleep quality. Ronda had extraction retraction orthodontics completed when she was 12 years old. She was diagnosed with upper airway resistance syndrome when she was 37 years old. Ronda then made a choice to either live with struggling to breathe during sleep every night and continue to watch her oral health decline or make a change to improve her airway health. She shares her passion every day to help people understand the difference between sleep (surviving) and quality sleep (thriving) and its inter-relationship between airway health and breathing.Here is the link to all of the tools that have helped other humans breathe better while they sleep. https://msha.ke/airwaycoachSHOWNOTES:

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: A prospective study at the Mayo Clinic Rochester was conducted to examine whether patients actively using their phones on initial assessment in the ED was associated with higher discharge rates The study included 292 patients, and only about 15% of patients were on their phone The patients on their phone tended to be a younger demographic Scribes were trained to record the data during their shifts The results did show that patients on their phone have a higher rate of discharge 94% chance of discharge if the patient is on their phone 64% chance of discharge if the patient is not on their phone This concept can potentially contribute to improving triage decisions References Garcia SI, Jacobson A, Moore GP, Frank J, Gifford W, Johnson S, Lazaro-Paulina D, Mullan A, Finch AS.
