Senator Lindsey Graham died unexpectedly over the weekend at the age of 71. The medical examiner is awaiting additional test results before determining the official cause of death but “the preliminary examination findings were - "Aortic Dissection due to Arteriosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease.” He served in the United States Air Force as a military lawyer, was elected to the House in 1994, and then elected to the Senate in 2002. It was announced that his sister, Darline Graham-Nordone, will hold his seat until an August election. FOX's Gurnal Scott speaks Matt Whitlock, former senior advisor to the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC), who shares his favorite moments of the Senator's life, and his thoughts on his sister stepping in as interim.

A silent danger lurks within the descending thoracic aorta. While most Type B aortic dissections are managed medically, up to half of these patients will either require life-saving surgery or die within just five years. So how do we separate those who will quietly recover from those on the edge of catastrophe? How do we protect the spinal cord, bowel, and limbs from the devastating consequences of malperfusion? Join the University of Michigan Department of Vascular Surgery as they tackle the high-stakes decisions behind managing this unpredictable disease—where timing is critical, interventions are evolving, and lives hang in the balance. Hosted by the University of Michigan Department of Vascular Surgery: ·       Robert Beaulieu, Program Director ·       Frank Davis, Assistant Professor of Surgery ·       Luciano Delbono, PGY-5 House Officer ·       Andrew Huang, PGY-4 House Officer ·       Carolyn Judge, PGY-2 House Officer Learning Objectives: 1.         Discuss general approach to diagnosis and management of TBAD. 2.         Identifying high-risk features in uncomplicated TBAD and understanding their role in determining the need for surgical management. 3.         Review endovascular techniques for managing malperfusion of the limbs, viscera, and spinal cord and discuss associated decision making.

An aortic dissection occurs when the innermost layer of the aorta tears and blood pushes into the walls of the aorta, separating the layers and causing some very dangerous problems. Let's talk through this process and think about the anatomy that might also be affected.

Mr Giovanni Mariscalco joins us again to discuss a serious but often under-recognised emergency: aortic dissection. This condition can mimic more benign causes of chest or back pain, but when it strikes, every minute counts. A missed diagnosis can lead to a fatal outcome. In this episode, we break down the classic and subtle presentations, the key investigations (and where clinicians often go wrong), and what to do when you suspect it.

Commentary by Dr. Jian'an Wang.

Darshan H. Brahmbhatt, Podcast Editor of JACC: Advances, discusses a recently published original research paper on Cardiac Tamponade Complicating Type A Acute Aortic Dissection: Insights From 25 Years of Registry Research.

"I grabbed the door handle, and it felt like somebody just cut up my chest with a dull butter knife. And 15 seconds later I was lying face down on the kitchen floor dead from cardiac tamponade at that point in time."Hey Heart Buddies. Whew. Today's episode with Jon Toivonen whose heart story literally stopped—and restarted—multiple times is one to help you take stock of your own life. Jon recounts his first shocking symptoms, the surreal “butter knife” sensation of an aortic dissection, and how fate, luck, and love shaped his survival. While Jon's physical heart has been patched together, the emotional journey is far from straightforward. Jon shares what comes after the surgeries: the mental battles, the power of community, and why an electric recliner might just be life changing. He also opens up about navigating the aftermath—ICU hallucinations, family impact, and the ever-present possibility of another health crisis.You can find Jon here.

Subarachnoid haemorrhage is a diagnosis that can't be missed, but it is not a simple process to detect it. The first paper for discussion this month questions if a CT scan within 6 hours is sufficient for exclusion in patients with acute headache. Then there is a large-scale analysis of over 400 million ED visits in the USA, focussing in on the significant issue of self-harm in the homeless population. Next is a paper on a decision tool for suspected acute aortic syndrome, and to finish, a discussion on the change in ED culture around safety since the COVID pandemic.   Read the issue highlights: December 2024 Primary Survey   Articles discussed in this episode: Subarachnoid haemorrhage in the emergency department (SHED): a prospective, observational, multicentre cohort study Suicide and self-injury-related emergency department visits and homelessness among adults 25–64 years old from 2016 to 2021 in the USA  Decision analytical modelling of strategies for investigating suspected acute aortic syndrome  Culture of safety in an adult and paediatric emergency department before and after the COVID-19 pandemic   The EMJ podcast is hosted by: Dr. Richard Body, EMJ Deputy Editor, University of Manchester, UK (@richardbody) Dr. Sarah Edwards, EMJ Social Media Editor, Leicester Royal Infirmary, UK (@drsarahedwards) You can subscribe to the EMJ podcast on all podcast platforms to get the latest podcast every month.

In this episode of the BackTable Podcast, host Dr. Michael Barraza interviews Dr. Darren Klass about his expert insights and experiences in the treatment of aortic dissections. Dr. Klass is an interventional radiologist at the University of British Columbia. Dr. Klass underscores the criticality of intraoperative decision-making, the use of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), and the importance of taking a multidisciplinary approach. The conversation further explores the nuances of treating acute complicated aortic dissections, stabilizing the intermedial flap, follow-up protocols, and the importance of raising awareness about this high risk disease. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR Cook Medical Aortic Interventions Please see Essential Prescribing Information: https://www.cookmedical.com/patient-resources/aortic-dissection/aortic-dissection-cook-medical-products/ --- SHOW NOTES 00:00 - Introduction 07:45 - Identifying and Treating Type B Aortic Dissections 09:35 - Role of Imaging 18:24 - Patient Journey Through Aortic Dissection Treatment 29:35 - Importance of Intravascular Ultrasound 39:01 - Petticoat Technique 47:12 - Role of Lumbar Drains 50:10 - Importance of Follow-ups --- RESOURCES Cook Medical Essential Prescribing Information: https://www.cookmedical.com/patient-resources/aortic-dissection/aortic-dissection-cook-medical-products/ Dr. Darren Klass' ResearchGate Profile: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Darren-Klass The Society of Thoracic Surgeons/American Association for Thoracic Surgery Clinical Practice Guidelines on the Management of Type B Aortic Dissection: https://www.sts.org/sites/default/files/content/TBAD_Guideline_2022.pdf Krukenberg E.

We've talked about Aortic Dissection before in our Roadside to Resus episode and the huge difficulties in picking out these rare but potentially devastating cases and this month we've got a fantastic paper on the topic! The DAShED study looks at patients presenting with symptoms that could be suggestive of aortic dissection and helps us understand the diagnostic challenge and approach to acute aortic syndrome, along with testing the characteristics of a number of decision tools. Next up we look at a paper from Bendszus, an RCT of medical versus thrombectomy and medical treatment for acute ischaemic strokes with a large infarct, with some really powerful results. Finally we look at a paper that shows some staggeringly different ROSC rates for patients in cardiac arrest depending on the size of the ventilation bag used! Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon & Rob

I am SO excited to introduce you to this guest on the Losses Become Gains podcast. I'm chatting with Destiny Ràel, a Transformational Life and Grief Coach. I'm so grateful life brought Destiny into my orbit—it really did feel like destiny when we first got in touch. We honestly connected immediately, bonded over our losses, and have such a similar outlook on life in terms of creating gains from your losses and creating purpose from your pain and grief. Amongst countless other types of loss, Destiny's beloved brother Joseph died two days after his birthday due to a rare disease called Aortic Dissection. Everything she has experienced has led her to the work that she's in now. She is someone that is here to help you navigate through life, loss, and everything in between to find hope, clarity and, ultimately, yourself. In addition to coaching, she has also served as an Advocate, Speaker, Mentor and is a Certified Trained Crisis Counselor. I align with everything she does and embodies so deeply, she is truly just such an inspiring, crazy intuitive, really special soul that I'm so grateful to be partnering with on today's episode and am so proud to call a friend.

In this episode, Steve, Dan, Holly, and Dr. Selbak review a few of their calls involving aortic dissections. Because aortic dissection is a relatively uncommon disease process, and many severe cases never make it to the hospital, reviewing these cases provides a unique opportunity for the listener to gather abundant knowledge in one sitting that may otherwise take years to gather in the field.

To continue honoring her Mom, Marilyn Lou Baum McNicholas, who transitioned almost one year ago due to an undetected Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA), Kym McNicholas and cohost Dr. John Phillips are keeping the conversation about detection, prevention, and treatment alive to prevent others from suffering the same fate. While Kym's Mom couldn't get diagnosed and treated in time, David Williams is a survivor of an aortic dissection, who shares his long, painful, but successful, fight for his life. The physician who David credits for saving his life joins the discussion. It's aortic specialist, Dr. George Arnaoutakis, Cardiothoracic Surgeon at University of Texas (UT), Austin, who recently moved from the University of Florida, Gainesville, to build a specialty center at UT. He and Dr. Phillips talk about the prevalence of aortic dissection and aneurysms, the difference between the two life-threatening conditions, how to prevent them, and how to know if you need to seek treatment for one.
