Podcasts about clinical decision making

In this episode of the Innovations and Clinical Implementation podcast recorded at LongevityFest 2025, host Dr. Lexi Gonzales explores the intersection of AI and gut health with Dr. Helen Messier, a physician and molecular immunologist who serves as the Chief Medical and Science Officer at Fountain Life; Dr. Leo Grady, the founder of Jona and an AI expert who previously led the team achieving the first FDA approval for an AI product in pathology; and Dr. Lawrence Kosinski, a gastroenterologist and founder of Sonar MD who is a national leader in value-based care. The panel discusses how Jona's AI platform processes over 220,000 studies to identify dysbiotic patterns that antedate clinical disease—ranging from metabolic liver disease and colon polyps to Parkinson's and cardiovascular issues linked to TMAO—thereby moving clinical focus from "symptoms to systems". The experts emphasize the mechanism of the gut-brain axis, noting that metabolites like butyrate derived from soluble fiber are essential for stabilizing the blood-brain barrier and DNA, while warning that popular GLP-1 agonists, though effective for weight loss, can "collapse" microbiome diversity and require careful monitoring.   For access to episode resources, click HERE.

As AI systems increasingly influence clinical decisions—from risk stratification to treatment recommendations—healthcare leaders face a critical question: When can we safely rely on AI, and when must human judgment remain in the loop?Professor Vasant Dhar, NYU Stern professor, veteran AI researcher, and author of the newly released Thinking With Machines: The Brave New World of AI, joins Digital Health Talks to deliver what healthcare executives urgently need: a practical framework for evaluating AI reliability, recognizing model blind spots, and designing guardrails that actually work.With decades of experience bringing machine learning to high-stakes environments and over one million downloads of his Brave New World podcast, Professor Dhar offers rare clarity on the mounting tension between rapidly advancing AI capabilities and our ability to evaluate their trustworthiness. Healthcare CIOs, CMIOs, and technology leaders will walk away with actionable insights for governing AI deployment—not just soundbites.Vasant Dhar, Author, Thinking With Machines: The Brave New World of AIMegan Antonelli, Chief Executive Officer, HealthIMPACT

Darshan H. Brahmbhatt, Podcast Editor of JACC: Advances, discusses a recently published original research paper on Clinical Decision-Making of Artificial Intelligence vs Medical Professionals in Patients With Syncope.

On a cold January day in South Carolina, Jamie and Matt Staub unpack why focus is one of the most underrated leadership skills—especially in healthcare, where everything can feel urgent. They break down how leaders decide what deserves attention, how to “push pause” on non-emergencies, and why coaching people through problems is often more effective than absorbing them. The conversation also explores decision fatigue, the difference between being busy and being focused, the role of habits (including insights from Atomic Habits), and how boundaries protect the work that actually moves the mission forward. Along the way, they normalize attention struggles, reframe “failure” as part of growth, and offer practical ways to stay aligned to goals without losing empathy or accessibility.

How do we distinguish past adaptation from active breakdown? And why do so many "standard solutions" fail to prevent restorative complications? Building on the foundational concepts from part one, this episode focuses on how occlusion shows up in day-to-day practice—and how dentists can make more informed decisions before committing to complex restorative or implant treatment. Dr. Kois explains why visual wear alone is an unreliable predictor of risk, how to identify whether wear is active versus inactive, and why patient symptoms often tell a more important story than what we see on models or scans. A major theme of this conversation is closing the gap between chairside evaluation and real-world function. Dr. Kois challenges common habits—such as adjusting restorations with patients fully reclined, relying solely on articulating paper marks, or reflexively prescribing nightguards—and explains why these approaches often miss the true etiology of failure. Instead, he emphasizes evaluating occlusion in positions and movements that reflect how patients actually chew, speak, and function throughout the day. In this episode, you'll learn: How to identify true high-risk occlusal cases before restorative treatment begins Why active wear and patient-reported change matter more than historical attrition How muscle symptoms, mobility, and joint loading influence predictability When nightguards and Botox may mask symptoms rather than solve the problem Why larger restorative and implant cases demand a deeper understanding of jaw position, tooth fit, and functional pathways Dr. Kois also shares candid insights on emerging technologies such as jaw tracking—where they add value, where they fall short, and why they are most impactful in comprehensive and full-arch cases rather than routine dentistry. The discussion highlights an important truth: many restorative failures are not material failures, but diagnostic failures rooted in incomplete occlusal assessment. The episode closes with a powerful reflection on learning, clinical growth, and professional development—distinguishing information from knowledge, and knowledge from wisdom. Dr. Kois outlines the progression from skepticism to commitment, underscoring why true clinical mastery requires not just understanding concepts, but applying them consistently over time. Together, parts one and two form a cohesive framework for thinking differently about occlusion—one grounded in physiology, adaptation, and long-term predictability. If you're aiming to move beyond bread-and-butter dentistry and into more complex, fulfilling clinical work, this conversation provides essential perspective on how to do so more thoughtfully and successfully.

Inhibition of this pathway by PI3K inhibitors disrupts a complex network of cellular processes that contribute to breast cancer, markedly reducing cell proliferation, promoting apoptosis, inhibiting angiogenesis, and ultimately preventing tumor formation and progression. In hormone receptor–positive (HR+), activating PIK3CA mutations occur in approximately 35% to 40% of patients and a variable prevalence across BC subtypes. Testing is thus crucial to ensure appropriate treatment selection. The development of PI3K-targeted agents may revolutionize the treatment landscape for HR+, HER2- metastatic breast cancer (mBC, and due to the recent approval of inavolisib, clinicians must be apprised of both the clinical evidence and best practices regarding the use of this agent. This activity has been designed to review the role of the PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway in breast cancer, the importance of testing when making clinical decisions, and the role of PI3K-targeted therapies in HR+, HER- mBC.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis and Alex discuss the complexities of trauma surgery, particularly focusing on pelvic injuries and the use of pelvic binders. They explore the subjective nature of truth in medical practice, the importance of research and evidence in trauma care, and the anatomy and physiology related to pelvic injuries. The conversation delves into injury patterns, damage control surgery, and the challenges faced in operational environments. They also engage in a debate about the efficacy of pelvic binders, weighing the evidence and risks involved in their use during trauma care. In this conversation, Dennis discusses the critical importance of evidence-based practice in combat medicine, particularly regarding the use of pelvic binders. He emphasizes the need for medical professionals to understand the nuances of pelvic injuries, especially in a combat environment, and how these injuries differ from civilian cases. The discussion also covers the structured approach to prolonged field care, the management of blood transfusions, and the challenges of imaging in trauma assessment. Dennis advocates for clinical decision-making that prioritizes patient safety and effective care, while also acknowledging the emotional weight of these decisions in high-stakes environments. Takeaways Truth is subjective and varies by perception. Disagreement in medical practice can lead to better patient care. Understanding research quality is crucial in medical decisions. Venous bleeding is more common in pelvic injuries than arterial. Damage control surgery involves multiple phases of patient management. Operational environments present unique challenges for trauma care. Pelvic binders are debated in their effectiveness and necessity. Surgical decision-making requires weighing risks and benefits. Evidence-based medicine is essential but often lacking in operational settings. The role of pelvic binders in trauma care remains contentious. Evidence is crucial in medical practice to avoid misinformation. Dismounted IED blasts result in unique injury patterns. Understanding research and statistics is essential for medical professionals. Pelvic binders may not always be beneficial in every injury case. Timely blood transfusions are critical in managing trauma patients. Imaging plays a vital role in assessing pelvic injuries. Clinical decision-making should be based on patient stability and evidence. Prolonged field care requires a structured approach to patient management. Team collaboration is essential in making difficult medical decisions. Continuous education and training are vital for operational medics.

Ambivalence is a tough concept when it comes to decision-making. On the one hand, when people have ambivalence but haven't explored why they are ambivalent, they are prone to bad, value-incongruent decisions. On the other hand, acknowledging and exploring ambivalence may lead to better, more ethical, and less biased decisions. On today's podcast, Joshua Briscoe, Bryanna Moore, Jennifer Blumenthal-Barby, and Olubukunola Dwyer discuss the challenges of ambivalence and ways to address them. This podcast was initially sparked by Josh's “Note From a Family Meeting” Substack post titled “Ambivalence in Clinical Decision-Making,” which discussed Bryanna's and Jenny's 2022 article titled “Two Minds, One Patient: Clearing up Confusion About Ambivalence." Bryanna's and Jenny's article is particularly unique as it discusses these “ambivalent-related phenomena” and that these different kinds of “ambivalence” may call for different approaches with patients, surrogates (and health care providers): In addition to defining these “ambivalent related phenomena” we ask our guests to cover some of these topics: Is ambivalence good, bad, or just a normal part of decision-making? Does being ambivalent mean you don't care about the decision? What should we be more worried about in decision-making, ambivalence or the lack thereof? The concern about resolving ambivalence too quickly, as it might rush past important work that needs to be done to make a good decision. What about ambivalence on the part of the provider?  How should we think about that? How do you resolve ambivalence? Lastly, the one takeaway point from this podcast is that the next time I see ambiguity (or have it myself), I should ask the following question: “I see you are struggling with this decision. Tell me how you are feeling about it.”

CardioNerds co-founder Dr. Amit Goyal, series co-chair Dr. Colin Blumenthal, and episode lead Dr. Anushka Tandon to discuss pharmacologic anticoagulation options in atrial fibrillation with Drs. Ashley Lochman and Chris Domenico. The case-based review helps clarify some key concepts, such as when warfarin is preferred for anticoagulation, who may be a good DOAC (direct-acting oral anticoagulant) candidate, how to choose an appropriate DOAC agent, and how to manage anticoagulation therapy in patients already on antiplatelet therapies. Notes were drafted by Dr. Anushka Tandon. The episode audio was edited by student Dr. Shivani Reddy. This CardioNerds Atrial Fibrillation series is a multi-institutional collaboration made possible by contributions of stellar fellow leads and expert faculty from several programs, led by series co-chairs, Dr. Kelly Arps and Dr. Colin Blumenthal. This episode was planned and recorded prior to the release of the 2023 ACC/AHA/ACCP/HRS Guideline for the Diagnosis and Management of Atrial Fibrillation.

Pearls and Quotes - Anticoagulation Pharmacology Avoid potentially fatal errors with this terminology tip for correctly referencing non-warfarin oral anticoagulant agents: it's DOAC (like, please DO use AntiCoagulation), not NOAC (imagine someone interpreting that as “NO AntiCoagulation for this patient” at discharge – yikes)! Sometimes, an oldie really is a goodie – warfarin is recommended over DOACs for patients with mechanical heart valves, moderate-to-severe mitral stenosis, anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome (APLS), left ventricular (LV) thrombus, higher INR goals, or DOAC failure. Patient preference and medication costs should also be considered – at the end of the day, “the best drug is the drug that a patient is willing to take!” Standard-dose rivaroxaban or apixaban may be considered for use in patients weighing >120kg or with BMI >40; use of other DOACs should be limited to pts weighing =/< 120kg or with BMI =/< 40. The pharmacists involved in this podcast promise they don't have stock in apixaban! It just often happens to be the preferred DOAC option in certain scenarios – think patients with severe renal impairment (including ESRD) or with an increased risk for bleeding events (including older adults, those with a history of GI bleed, etc). In general, dual therapy (DOAC or warfarin + P2Y12 inhibitor) is non-inferior to triple therapy (oral anticoagulant + P2Y12 inhibitor + aspirin) at preventing thrombotic events but is associated with a lower risk of bleeding events. Most patients can be transitioned to dual therapy after 7-30 days on triple therapy post-percutaneous coronary intervention. What's that on the horizon? Factor XI inhibitors may become the breakout stars of anticoagulation – multiple investigational agents are being studied for their potential to reduce thrombotic risk without significantly increasing bleeding risk in patients with indications for anticoagulation therapy…at least that's the theorize hope. Watch this space! Notes - Anticoagulation Pharmacology In which cases is warfarin preferred over DOACs in patients with atrial fibrillation? Long-term anticoagulation with warfarin is indicated in patients with atrial fibrillation and either a mechanical valve or moderate-to-severe mitral stenosis (i.e., valvular atrial fibrillation as defined in the 2019 AHA/ACC/HRS guidelines on atrial fibrillation [1]). The REALIGN trial [2] showed increased rates of thromboembolic and bleeding complications with dabigatran vs.
