Thanks to Robert Snyder, DPM, and Robert Mueller, the General Manger of Reddress, for joining me on "The Art of Medicine with Dr. Andrew Wilner" to discuss "Actigraft," a novel wound healing product. I first heard about Actigraft from a news report that Reddress had donated several hundred units to Ukraine to assist with civilian and military casualties. An Israeli, Dr. Igal Kushner, invented Actigraft, and his son, Alon Kushnir, now the Reddress CEO, brought it to market. Headquarters are in Florida, and the product is cleared for marketing by the FDA for wound care.Actigraft is intriguing because it relies on the patient's blood to make a patch that assists in wound healing. As a long-time scuba diver, I trained in hyperbaric medicine. Hyperbaric medicine is used to treat divers who develop the bends, but hyperbarics is also an adjunctive treatment for nonhealing wounds. When I practiced at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, NC, I treated several patients with nonhealing wounds with hyperbaric medicine, so I was interested in learning more about this product.Please join us for this 20-minute interview where Mr. Mueller shares the history of this new company and Dr. Snyder explains how Actigraft works.More information on Actigraft and Reddress is available on the website: https://reddressmedical.comThanks to CompHealth, the first locum tenens company, for sponsoring this program!

When we think about regionalization of care, particularly in the setting of trauma, we often think about triage being done from a lower to a higher tier center. Today on the show we are joined by Dr. Maria Baimas-George to hear about the benefits of doing things the other way round. Dr. Baimas-George is currently a PGY 4 categorical general surgery resident at Carolinas Medical Center Atrium Health in Charlotte, North Carolina. She has been very active from a research and publication standpoint, and her recent paper, ‘Emergency general surgery transfer to lower acuity facility: The role of right-sizing care in EGS regionalization' was selected as the best of EGS paper for the JTACS 2022 January edition. In this paper, Dr. Baimas-George evaluates a 16-month experience of a five-surgeon team triaging EGS patients at Carolinas Medical Center, a tertiary care, Level I trauma center to an affiliated community hospital 1.3 miles away. In this episode, we hear about how this practice evolved at CMC and the role COVID played as well as the benefits it has yielded in terms of expedited patient care, resource capacity, and more. Key Points From This Episode: An intro to Dr. Baimas-George, her education, residency, and research contributions. How Dr. Baimas-George came up with her triage program and the role COVID played. Why Dr. Baimas-George's transfer program was a good use of resources. The short transfer times that have been achieved and how this was accomplished. Criteria used to triage patients from the ER in virtual consultations. Determining whether performing Surgery will be faster at CMC or Mercy. Whether there were issues of inappropriate transfer or under/over-triaging. Other key outcomes measured such as cost, operative minutes, and bed day savings. Opening up space for more complex surgeries at the main hospital by shuttling less acute cases to the community hospital. Other benefits such as solving care discontinuity, faster disposition, and more.

As someone who started creating her own books when she was two, Dr. Maria Baimas-George believed she would grow up to become an author. When she fell in love with science and went on to medical school, Dr. Baimas-George found herself writing and drawing to de-stress. “Growing up, I loved English and I loved science, and now I feel like they are merging, which is wonderful,” Dr. Baimas-George says of her newfound side hustle. She's a surgical resident by day, and an author and illustrator by weekend. In this episode of Prosperous Doc®, our host Shane Tenny, CFP®, welcomes Dr. Baimas-George, a surgical resident at Carolinas Medical Center of Atrium Health in Charlotte, North Carolina. In addition to discussing her medical career, Dr. Baimas-Georges tells us about her children's book series, “The Strength of My Scars: Pediatric Surgical Chronicles,” and the path that led her to create such meaningful work. Dr. Baimas-George's first-hand experience in the pediatric surgery service shed light on the information that gets lost in translation between patients, their caregivers, and physicians. Physicians speaking in medical jargon to patients and their families who are already anxious and scared is not beneficial. Dr. Baimas-George's series provides both caregivers and children with understandable information they can process more readily in times of high emotion. “We saw a significant benefit in satisfaction, comprehension or understanding, and [decreased] apprehension or stress in caregivers and parents of patients undergoing common pediatric surgeries,” Dr. Baimas-George says of a controlled study conducted at Carolinas Medical Center. Dr. Baimas-George's medical and authorial future is as bright as the lights on her OR table. She is a true testament to the power of following your passions wherever they might take you.

If you have a family to look after or a job to attend to or a body to take care of, you may feel stress at any given day for many different reasons. Yes, in fact, I imply everybody on this planet is susceptible to get stressed! That's why this episode on stress management and good self-care practices is useful for everyone. My guest for this week's podcast is Rita Garnto. Rita is an author and educator. She had a 20-year career in western healthcare as a Registered Respiratory Therapist and worked in Canada (where she was born), Saudi Arabia and in the United States. In 2004 she began her massage therapy private practice and after 16 years running, she is now educating and speaking on the dangers of stress and providing simple self-care solutions to combat the negative effects of stress. Learn more from her book "Simple Self-Care Saved Me" here. In her career, she had cared for patients ranging in age from premature babies to the elderly and everyone in between. In her lengthy career, she had been part of the trauma flight team at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, NC. and she was caring for critically ill patients during transport flights on helicopters and aeroplanes. Rita has vast experience in caring and supporting patients in all kind of stressful situations. Over time, her mission has evolved into focusing on improving the health and life of busy women and their families, simply and without overwhelm. Interview Highlights Self-care is about self-preservation and not self-indulgenceRita learned about stress from working in a life or death environment as being part of a trauma flight team for many years, also her personal experience with her family as well as being a massage therapist who saw many clients that came through because of stress-related issues.We often under estimate the level of control we have in life, so the key question is, “What changes are you going to make?” If you want to break from your current situation.Using her trauma flight team days to develop her stress management lectures and presentations to educate people how to manage stress on a daily basis.Connecting the Eastern philosophy and Western medical training to reduce stress.Time out to stress less - Rita's short Facebook Live to give short tips and advice for us to practise self-care, to connect with others, and to be authentic.When we feel stress, our brain triggers the fight or flight response in our body. It is an essential response if we need to run away from actual danger, but when that is not the case, it puts pressure on our mental and physical health, especially when it happens frequently.Other negative effects of stress include stress eating or loss of appetite, insomnia, may be withdrawn or trigger anxiety, mild depression, etc.Women tend to take care of everybody else before we take care of ourselves or need to get permission to do self-care.The difference between self-care and simple self-care: easy actions and habits that can build on themselves.

Rick also offers his advice on how best to approach and talk about surgical complications. Lastly, he discusses how important it is for surgeons to plan for life after surgery and recounts the necessity of always reinventing oneself (Rick is a writer and a radio host!)

In this episode of Veggie Doctor Radio, I have an engaging conversation with Dr. Laura about raising plant-based kids and the wisdom she has gained over the years. About featured guest: Dr. Laura Taylor Pridemore is a board certified pediatrician of over 18 years. Even in medical school, she had an interest in nutrition as a result of her family’s history of type 2 diabetes, coronary artery disease, heart attacks and strokes. After hearing a local lecture on The China Study, Dr. Pridemore became inspired to learn more about whole foods plant-based nutrition. She received a Certificate in Plant-Based Nutrition from Cornell University and has attended all 7 of the International Plant-Based Nutrition Healthcare Conferences. In 2016, she gave the first pediatric presentation at the International Plant-Based Nutrition Healthcare conference in Anaheim, CA, and in 2017 shared the presentation with the local Charlotte Pediatric Society. She has voraciously collected and read as many books on this subject of whole food plant-based nutrition as possible. Recently, Dr. Pridemore’s passion has expanded to lifestyle medicine which incorporates not only a mostly whole foods plant-based way of eating, but also regular physical movement, stress management, quality sleep and supportive relationships. Her lifestyle motto for her patients is “Eat, Move, Rest, Connect” and her nutrition motto is “Eat from the garden, Drink from the well.” Dr Pridemore recommends lifestyle medicine with her pediatric patients and families for both well visits and sick visits.

Dr Carolyn Lam: Welcome to Circulation on the Run, your weekly podcast summary and backstage pass to the journal and its editors. I'm Dr Carolyn Lam, associate editor from the National Heart Center and Duke National University of Singapore. Dr Greg Hundley: I'm Dr Greg Hundley from the Pauley Heart Center at VCU Health in Richmond, Virginia. Dr Carolyn Lam: Greg, this issue features a very important, but rather somber subject and it talks about suicide attempts among LVAD recipients and the real-life data from the Assist-ICD study. Now we have to get to that and it's a very interesting discussion, but first, let's discuss a couple of papers and I'll start. Now, we know that extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation or ECMO, for hemodynamic support has been shown to enhance survival for patients with refractory VF or VT out of hospital cardiac arrest. However, what are the effects of prolonged CPR on development of metabolic derangements and neurologically favorable survival in these patients? Well, this was examined by Dr Bartos from University of Minnesota School of Medicine and colleagues who retrospectively evaluated survival in 160 consecutive adults with refractory VF/VT out of hospital cardiac arrest, treated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and compared these with 654 adults who had received standard CPR in the amiodarone arm of the ALPS trial. They found that extracorporeal CPR was associated with improved neurologically favorable survival compared to standard CPR at all CPR durations less than 60 minutes. However, CPR duration remained a critical determinant of survival with a 25% increase in mortality with every 10 minutes of CPR beyond 30 minutes. The progressive metabolic derangement which developed during prolonged CPR was associated with reduced neurologically favorable survival. Dr Greg Hundley: This mirrors an article that we had maybe about a month ago. What are the clinical implications of this particular study? Dr Carolyn Lam: Well, healthcare systems utilizing extracorporeal CPR for out of hospital cardiac arrest should optimize pre-hospital and in-hospital processes to minimize time to CPR. Further research is needed to identify strategies to increase CPR efficiency, improve profusion, and decrease the metabolic demands such that the progressive metabolic derangement associated with prolonged CPR can be delayed. This is discussed in an editorial by Dr Sonneville and Schmidt. Dr Greg Hundley: Very nice, Carolyn. Well, my next article is from Roxana Mehran from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. It's really getting at the issue of high-risk implantation of inter-coronary stents and balancing where is that risk. Is it from bleeding or a complication from the procedure? In this study, they had a total of 10,502 patients and they were included from four registries. 3,507 were identified as having high bleeding risk. The authors aimed to evaluate the long-term adverse events in the high bleeding risk patients undergoing PCI with cobalt chromium, everolimus-eluting stent implantation. Dr Carolyn Lam: Ah, Greg. Awesome. I'm a fan of Dr Mehran and looks like I'm going to be a fan of this study. What did they find? Dr Greg Hundley: Well, Carolyn, I love just thinking about coated stents. How about that? Interestingly, those at high bleeding risk had more comorbidities. They had higher lesion complexity and a higher risk of four-year mortality. In fact, four times that of those without those risk factors. The risk of mortality was increased after coronary thrombotic events and after major bleeding. Thus, rather than just being evaluated as a subset of patients in whom the risk of bleeding takes precedence, high bleeding risk patients must be considered a vulnerable population in whom both ischemic as well as bleeding events have a significant impact on their mortality. Dr Carolyn Lam: Nice, Greg, and you said all of that without repeating everolimus. Dr Greg Hundley: Coated, remember, coated stents. Dr Carolyn Lam: These tongue twisters, but hey, my next paper provides novel insights into mechanisms underlying diastolic stiffness in cardiomyocytes and the myocardium. This is from Dr Prosser from Perelman School of Medicine in Philadelphia and colleagues, who interrogated the role of the microtubule network in the diastolic mechanics of human cardiomyocytes and myocardium. They found that stable detyrosinated microtubules contributed viscous forces during diastolic stretch that increased cardiomyocyte stiffness, particularly in patients with heart failure. Depolymerizing microtubules reduced myocardial stiffness over the range of strains and strain rates associated with early rapid filling in tissue from patients with diastolic dysfunction. Dr Greg Hundley: Now, how are we going to take this to patients? Are there any translational insights? Dr Carolyn Lam: Microtubule deep polymerization using colchicine. Colchicine, the stuff we use for gout, this reduced myocardial viscoelasticity with an effect that decreased with increasing strain. Post-hoc subgroup analysis revealed that myocardium from patients with heart failure reduced ejection fraction were more fibrotic and elastic than myocardium from patients with heart failure preserved ejection fraction, which were relatively more viscous. Now, colchicine reduced viscoelasticity in both HFpEF and HFrEF myocardium, but may confer greater benefit in conditions with limited myocardial fibrosis including HFpEF. How's that for translational? Dr Greg Hundley: Oh, very nice, Carolyn. My next paper comes from Dr Lior Zangi from Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Carolyn, in this study, the authors performed transcriptomics sphingolipid and protein analyses to evaluate sphingolipid metabolism and signaling after myocardial infarction. They investigated the effect of altering sphingolipid metabolism through a loss of chemical inhibitors or gain modified MRNA and modified RNA of acid ceramidase function post hypoxia or MI. Dr Carolyn Lam: Whoa, so what did they find? Dr Greg Hundley: Well, Carolyn, translationally, the authors found that transiently altering sphingolipid metabolism through acid ceramidase over expression is sufficient and necessary to induce cardio-protection after myocardial infarction. Carolyn, these results highlight a new therapeutic potential of acid ceramidase modified messenger RNA in ischemic heart disease. The basic science is just phenomenal in our journal. Dr Carolyn Lam: It is, and I loved the way you explained that one, Greg, thanks. Now, there's lots of stuff also in the journal. There's an On My Mind by Dr Ray entitled "LDL Cholesterol Lowering Strategies and Population Health: Time to move to accumulative exposure model." We also have a research letter by Dr Chen describing a novel mouse knock-in strategy utilizing a biotin ligase-based system called biotin identification 2, to identify the cardiac diet proteome in vivo. Well, very interesting stuff, especially in terms of this particular novel strategy. Dr Greg Hundley: You know, Carolyn, this week the mailbox is just full, so I've got a research letter emphasizing trends in anti-arrhythmic drug use among US patients between 2004 and 2016 and it's from Dr David Frankel from the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. I've also got a letter to the editor regarding the association between the use of primary prevention implantable cardio defibrillators in mortality in patients with heart failure, a prospective propensity matched analysis from the Swedish Heart Failure Registry, and the corresponding author is Professor Laszlo Littman from atrium health at the Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. There is also a response to this letter from Dr Gianluigi Savarese from Karolinska Institute. Then finally I have a new another EKG challenge, Carolyn, from Dr Miguel Arias. It's a case of new onset, recurrent syncope triggered by fever. Can you get it right from just looking at the EKG? Well, Carolyn, should we head on to our feature discussion, which this week has a very somber tone? Dr Carolyn Lam: Let's go. Left ventricular assist devices or LVADs are really becoming established therapy for end stage heart failure. Now, we who manage such patients realize there are numerous complications and have seen patients who suffer things like anxiety and depression. Interestingly, until today, there was very little data regarding the suicide risk in this population. I am so pleased to welcome the authors of a very unique and important research letter and they are Vincent Galand as well as Erwan Flécher, both from Ren University Hospital in France, and of course Mark Drazner, our associate editor from UT Southwestern. Vincent, could you start us off by telling us what made you do this important study and what did you find? Dr Vincent Galand: As you know, in the entire population where a lot of tests have thromboses or infection or ventricular arrhythmias, but there is a lack of data about the clarity of life for the secret distress or suicide in this population. I think it's very important to have information about the population. At the beginning is the Assist-ICD study is a study focused on arrhythmias in this population, but we recorded data about suicide in this population. What the objective of this study was to analyze the incidents of suicide in this population and to see if there is some predictor of suicides in this population. Dr Carolyn Lam: What did you find? Dr Vincent Galand: We find that in centers without LVAD nurse coordinator, the incidents of suicide, was higher. It was not significant, but it was a very big trend. Additionally, we found that patient implanted in destination therapy was a bigger risk of suicide compared to patient granted bridge transportation or bridge to recovery. I think there is two factors of suicide. The first one is a lack of LVAD nurse coordinator and the second one is the implementation and destination therapy. Dr Carolyn Lam: Yeah, and the really cool thing is that that first factor is something that I suppose can be addressed in future efforts. Mark, could I just ask you to put these findings and this research that are into context for circulation to publish quite a specialty, if you may, topic, why is this so important? Dr Mark Drazner: DT vans are really a rapidly emerging therapy for patients with advanced heart failure, with almost exponential growth. As these profound technologies are emerging on the scene, it's important, first, to consider all the ramifications for our patients. I think anyone could imagine having an LVAD implant and how that might have profound influence on your life in totality and the impact on the psychological aspects. While there's been previous studies, there seems to be much avoidance in us really fully understanding the total impact. There have been previous case reports of suicide, but not anything to this magnitude where a systematic series with an estimate of the frequency of as high as 2%, which may not sound high, but, compared to the general population, is increased. We view this as an important look at a critical topic. It's the beginning, there needs to be, as you said, it's a research writer on a case series, but it's a cautionary tale and really is pointing the way for us to proceed with further investigation as potentially important complication related to that. That's essentially why the editorial board found this interesting. Dr Carolyn Lam: Indeed. Could you just remind us how big this study was? Because this is really big for an LVAD study. Dr Erwan Flécher: We collected data from 19 university centers in France over 10 years period and we collected a lot of that especially in the fields of arrhythmia. As Vincent said, we thought it was interesting to take the entire picture, so we collected data about quality of life and how do they live and if they had a lot of risk of suicide, if not, and that's how we succeeded to lead this study. In France, what is important also for you to know is that we do implant a different population of patients than in the US. We do implants in bad patients, in very, very sick patients. Most of them are currently in cardiogenic shock or already under temporary support, ECMO support, IMPELLA support, so it may impact also our results. That's an interesting point to say and the overall thing is that our paper demonstrated, I think, that we need to take care of these patients not only about the device, not only about the anticoagulation, but also, I mean again, the entire picture. The social part, the quality of life, the way they do live is very important. Probably they should be proposed for psychological follow-up also, or any kind of support for the family. This is important in order to decrease the risk of suicide, in my opinion. Dr Carolyn Lam: I liked those take-home messages that are very practical, and you kind of read my mind about that question of generalizability. Mark, did you have any reflection on that? The generalizability to the US population? Dr Mark Drazner: Yeah, that's an important point. I was struck in the paper that 80% of the patients who committed suicide were followed at centers without LVAD coordinators. That number seems high compared to what we're used to seeing. It would be intriguing how widespread that is, where patients who are getting implanted don't have access to a VAD coordinator in your country. Dr Erwan Flécher: Well, that's an important point also. It is different in France. I mean, we just created...That coordinator did not exist a few years ago in France and I know you are used to work with VAD coordinator in the US, in the UK, even in Netherlands and Germany, but in France it was not like that and all patients were only followed by cardiologist or cardiac surgeons and a few centers started few years ago, five, eight years ago to have a VAD coordinator nurse program. We do believe it is very, very important. That's also plea for a better organization of care in our country. Dr Mark Drazner: Yeah, that's a thinking point. I didn't realize that that was not widespread practice and relatively new implementation. It'll be interesting to see if the rates subsequently fall with that change in practice. Can I ask, let me follow up in terms of your previous comment. It sounds like a lot of these patients were acute presentations and I wonder also whether they may not have had the full time to grasp exactly what they were getting into, for example. I think we've all been there. Someone went into cardiogenic shock, ends up crashing and burning and has to go for a durable VAD. A very different complex in someone who has consolidation has been followed in the center for a while, has a chance to come to understand what all that really is. You think that is a major factor in this experience? Dr Vincent Galand: We think that patients who are granted in case of emergency; it's a bigger risk of surgical distress afterwards the implantation. In fact, that they cannot many information before the implantation, information about the worth life after the LVAD implantation. Of course if they don't the information, they can't be prepared for life after surgery. I think it's a bigger risk, yeah. Dr Erwan Flécher: That's why maybe in your country or maybe elsewhere, I don't know, maybe the findings would have been different. That's, that's an option we should consider, also. In France, as we told you, we do implants. Most of our patients are implanted in emergency. They're already in ICU. Most of them are already under mechanical ventilation, so they just wake up and they learned that they have been implanted. Not all of them, but most of them, the vast majority of them, so of course they are not so well prepared and that may have an impact on the follow-up. We try to talk to the family; we try to talk to the general practitioner. Dr Mark Drazner: Of the 10 patients, it's very interesting that patients are being implanted and not knowing they're being implanted in and say waking up with an LVAD. I don't know if you have the granular detail, but do you know, of these 10 patients, how many of them were in that situation? Dr Vincent Galand: The patients were implanted in cardiogenic shock, so I think it's four patients, but six patients were implanted without cardiogenic shock. They received this kind of information before the LVAD implantation, so it's not a big part of the population, but it's some patients. Dr Mark Drazner: Could you, just for our readers, it's a little goory, I will admit, but in terms of how these patients attempted or actually committed suicide, just to explain in terms of, it was oftentimes related to a mechanism through the LVAD. If you could just summarize that and how they tried to commit suicide or commit suicide. Dr Vincent Galand: That was the case. The suicide was with drive line disconnection or drive line section. In two patients, it was drug suicides, but in most of the patients the drive line is the main way for suicide. Dr Mark Drazner: It's interesting that the mechanism that these patients tried to commit suicide was directly through the LVAD. Dr Erwan Flécher: Of course it's the easiest way to terminate their life and they just cut off it. Just don't plug the battery and they are alone and that was the main way to practice their suicide. Dr Mark Drazner: I know we don't have the initial report, we probably don't have all those, but in terms of you postulating in the paper why patients might get to the state where they would try or commit suicide with the LVAD. If you just want to throw out some of your hypotheses so that our listeners can hear those as well. Dr Erwan Flécher: I've got in mind two or three points in order to improve our results. First of all, we should implant maybe earlier patients in France in order to have a better way to prepare and to invest the VAD implantation. The second point would be to have a better organization of care and I think we should develop that VAD nurse coordinators program like in many countries. We still have some but not in all the hospitals implanting that. The third point would be also to get the better LVADs. I mean, probably the drive line in sections, batteries, the controller, this of course it's much better than it was 10 years ago. There is no noise. It's less big than it was, but still, I think if we can improve the device itself, I think we may observe maybe the decrease in the risk of a system in society, especially the drive line, if there is no drive line, the quality of life should be better. We may suggest that the risk of suicide would decrease. Dr Carolyn Lam: A very somber topic, but those last take home messages, leaving hope for improvement, were really important. Thank you everyone for sharing with us today, and thank you, audience, for joining us today. Dr Greg Hundley: This program is copyright, the American Heart Association 2020.

Have you ever met anyone who is a busy orthopedic surgeon and a partner in a private equity firm? Well, today is your chance. Marshall Kuremsky set his sights on becoming an orthopedic surgeon early in his childhood. And he took all of the necessary steps to make that happen. But along the way, he became interested in finance, and in private equity investing. So, he applied the same intense study to that discipline as he did to his medical education. Marshall is an orthopedic surgeon in Raleigh, North Carolina specializing in sports medicine and hand surgery. He completed his medical training at Columbia University and his orthopedic residency at Carolinas Medical Center, followed by fellowships in Upper Extremity Surgery and Orthopedic Sports Medicine. While in Raleigh, he broadened his pursuits to include real estate investing, day trading, developing a small health care consulting firm, blogging, and a multimedia social platform promoting news and information about injuries in baseball. He joined a venture capital firm called LOUD Capital as the Head of Physician Relations in May 2018 and recently became a partner. He continues to balance those activities with his orthopedic practice. During our interview, Marshall describes his journey and how he balances his nonclinical and practice-related responsibilities. He also tells us about a pitch competition that his venture capital firm is sponsoring, and how you can apply to be considered for $50,000 in capital and in-kind support.

Join the Ped EM Fellows from Carolinas Medical Center and the EMGuideWire as they discuss the seemingly simple issue of Pediatric Urinary Tract Infections. Who needs to be test and how do we do so? Let's review this less than simple topic.
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a solution that can assist couples having difficulty to conceive take the first steps on the path towards parenthood. However, how patients choose to undergo IVF should not be a “one size fits all” approach. Embryos from different women will react differently under specific conditions, and reproductive endocrinologists, as well as patients, need to keep an open mind regarding all potential treatment avenues.In this episode, Bradley S.

Pump the brakes on your week and take 10 minutes to make your life as a surgeon just a little better…Jeff welcomes to the SurgeonMasters mini-podcast orthopaedic surgeon and current hand fellow at Thomas Jefferson University, Paulvalery (Paul) Roulette, MD. The topic of discussion in this episode is Responding to Criticism! Paul describes the importance of feedback and how to respond positively to it. As we all know, receiving criticism and feedback is a regular occurrence for a surgeon, especially during residency and fellowship. In practice, we constantly receive feedback from patients, colleagues, and other members of our teams that impact our success. Irrespective of sender and motive, there is always something we can glean from the message. How we respond can go a long way in determining career satisfaction.What steps does Paul suggest we do to improve how we respond to criticism?Here’s what Paul suggests:Step 1 - Divorce Emotion - Listen and truly consider what the other person is saying. Step 2 - Listen Carefully - Capture the other person’s perspective and entertain that at least part of the criticism is true. Step 3 - Return for Feedback - Once you have implemented efforts to incorporate the feedback centered on your strengths and addressing your weaknesses, return to see if the other thinks it is working. When we respond to criticism positively, we improve our ability to make changes and understand the perspective of others. Responding positively has the ability to solidify relationships, improve our ability to self-assess, and increases the engagement of others in the process. Most importantly, develop your own personal plan for responding positively to criticism! Dr. Paulvalery Roulette, MD is an orthopaedic hand surgery fellow at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia. After completing his medical degree at Harvard Medical School, Paul continued his medical career at Carolinas Medical Center, completing an orthopaedic residency in 2018. His clinical time is spent on fractures of the hand, and his research focuses on burnout prevention and well-being. Outside of the delivery of care, his passion is volunteering internationally on humanitarian trips. When he is not caring for patients, Dr. Roulette is spending quality time with his family.

In Episode 015 of A Medicinal Mind: Wisdom and Wellbeing, we explore the interface between science and spirituality, evolution and creationism, faith and the experimental method. I have a wonderful conversation with a dear friend and honorary family member, former governor of North Carolina and nurturing grandfather Jim Martin. Jim is a Princeton PhD organic chemist who initially taught at his alma mater Davidson College During that time, he played principal tuba in the Charlotte Symphony and officiated high school football. Drawn to politics as a precinct worker, he was then elected three times as county commissioner, six times to the U.S. Congress, and twice as Governor of North Carolina. After twenty-six years of public service, he returned to his scientific roots in private life to serve as vice president of medical research at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte. He and his wife Dottie have three children and five grandchildren in addition to being amazing family friends to my grandparents and all the Abbott's in my loving family. In our conversation Jim shares some amazing insights regarding the complexities of biology, organic chemistry, and physics as they relate to the current existence of humanity and our universe as a whole. In distilling down some of the major ideas in his groundbreaking book: Revelation Through Science Jim provides us with a small glimpse into some foundational scientific principles that perhaps, do not and WILL NEVER PROVE the existence of a God, but do indeed provide evidence POINTING TO the existence of a larger Creator. Introducing the concepts of irreducible complexities, the remarkable relational geometry of DNA, RNA, sugars, and amino acids, we explore that miraculous machinery that allows for the storage and interpretation of genetic code and the eventual creation of an incredible array of proteins and biologic tissues. Getting a little geeky, we, as two chemists explore the concepts of chirality or handedness of molecules. Why should we care if something is left handed or right handed? What does it mean to be left handed in the first place? And what the heck is a enantiomer? Changing gears, James and I explore Scripture and the biblical text Can we treat the Bible as a scientific textbook or as a book of relational and interpretive wisdom? Is it fair to judge the biblical text against our current understanding of the scientific method? Dancing into the beautiful trinity of sugars, RNA/DNA, and amino acids, Jim creates the wonderful three way chicken, egg and creator conundrum, what came first nucleic acids, or ribose and deoxyribose, or amino acids or perhaps something we don't even currently understand? I am so grateful to Jim for sharing this space with me and engaging in a thoughtful discussion seeking to bring peace to the supposed dichotomy between science and spirituality, providing a middle ground for individuals to recognize that you can both believe in God and evolution, use the scientific method and rely on faith for understanding. And please check out Jim's book: Revelation Through Science, it really is a fascinating collection of thoughtful scientific inquiry accessible to both the rigorous scientist and curious layperson. You can find links to Jim's page and his book in our show notes, as well as slides describing some of the concepts we discuss in the podcast, for those, like myself, who are rather visually inclined. I really hope you enjoy the show!
