Drs. Amy Crockett (@amyhcrockett), Ben Ereshefsky (@brainofbpharm), and Pamela Bailey (@pamipenem) join Dr. Julie Ann Justo (@julie_justo) to discuss new treatment strategies for management of intraamniotic infections, also known as chorioamnionitis. They discuss whether it is time to move away from the combination of ampicillin, gentamicin, and/or clindamycin, alternative antibiotic regimens to consider, and stewardship strategies to approach this practice change at a local level.

You're doing it all but could there be hidden mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness. Increasing protein, lifting weights, doing high intensity… How can you be this active but not working? Disclaimer: This could trigger you. The mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness you could be doing on purpose because you were told once this is what you SHOULD DO. This episode is for all women, and for you. So let's unpack these mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness. Before anything.. Measure. If you aren't measuring your body composition - skeletal muscle mass vs. body fat—you won't truly know what's working. I'll link to the 4 Smart scales in my store. You can get a Dexa or go to a gym. #1 Not Consuming Enough Fuel Women are not the same as men on carbohydrate needs. We get little, we disrupt hormones. You are influenced by cortisol, insulin, thyroid, testosterone, growth hormone and the endocrine. How much fuel do you need? Endocrine dysfunction - ~30-35 calories per kg of FFM in women; but around 15 calories per kg FFM in men. Fat Free Mass (FFM) - say you're 130kg and you have 25% body fat. You need 2923 kcals to keep your body functioning well. Fueling Your Workouts: Cardio: 30g carbs and 15g protein before Strength: 15g protein before + 30-45g protein after (higher in and after menopause) Thyroid & Carbohydrates Low carb diets (under 100g) - pivotal point for lower thyroid function. Serotonin - produced in the gut, declines with low carb diets. Low-carb diets - don't lead to better weight loss long-term, they cause water loss. What Happens When You're Under-Fueled?Low Energy Availability from brain (hypothalamus) to body… Hypothalamus signals HPA axis dysfunction Adrenals releases cortisol Thyroid slows metabolism Body conserves energy and breaks down muscle instead of fat for fuel When You Fast, try one of these: High intensity intervals Lift heavy weights High intensity boot camp class Reduce carbs, maintain a keto-like diet while increasing your walks Know the Sneaky Mistakes Hijacking Your Menopause Fitness #2 Never REALLY Recovering From Hard Intervals or Hard Workouts Some bootcamps and spin classes are rapid, high-intensity intervals without adequate recovery. Your cortisol levels during this session accumulate. It feels like you crushed it, but here's the truth: if you're not giving yourself real recovery, you're not hitting your peak. When you skip the full recovery, you're not building the strength and power that protect against sarcopenia (muscle loss). Try these: Warm-up A: Run up a steep hill for 40 seconds Mark that point on the hill Slowly go back down Fully recover, with your nasal breathing. Repeat until you don't make it to the same spot on the hill Warm-up B: Run up a steep hill for 40 seconds Mark that point on the hill Quickly make your way down Cool down within 60 seconds Immediately run up again Repeat until you don't make it to the same spot on the hill They both will feel hard, but only one gets you to your maximum capacity. The glycolytic fibers - fast twitch that sustain power fatigue quickly. Women have fewer of them than slow twitch and lose twice as fast as slow-twitch fibers. Fast-twitch fibers need power moves — like heavy lifting or box jumps — and plenty of recovery to reload and go again. You're fooling yourself into thinking you're getting in better shape. So test yourself… a simple protocol you can do at home. Try a full test battery you can easily do at home - I'll provide access to it in the show notes as soon as it's ready. Measure. Monitor your waist girth, your body fat percent and your skeletal muscle. Rate your energy, sleep, focus, digestion and elimination. Are you improving, worse or the same? When you're exercising optimally these things also improve. It's not just muscle mass and fat. Are these Mistakes Hijacking Your Menopause Fitness? #3 Relying on Caffeine, Bar Codes and Over Emphasis on Packaged Food By nature, your cortisol level is highest at about 8am. You've fasted overnight and if you're not eating soon after waking, especially if you're exercising as a female, your body has stressor on top of stressor: Punched your ticket in midlife (less estrogen, more cortisol) Caffeine (more cortisol) No fuel (more cortisol) Exercise (more cortisol) Fuel before intense exercise. Fuel again after, especially within the 24 hour period after resistance training or other HARD workouts the need for recovery persists, so it's not just that single meal following activity. #4 Always High and Hard You have never needed high intensity more in your life than whatever age over 40 you are now. You also need full recovery … between intervals, strength training sets and sessions. Here's the secret: Muscle gets stronger between sessions. The exercise is the stimulus. The recovery is where fitness happens – the release of hormones, the repair and supercompensation. Recovery time. Get AT LEAST 48 to 72 hours between hard use of the same muscle groups. Active Recovery. The low intensity movement between your hard sessions is absolutely important in increasing circulation, blood sugar stabilization, improving sleep and mood and overall fitness levels. Keep It Simple: Movement Time. Walking at the level below where cortisol negatively spikes so you can reduce or optimize it. Short & Intense. Spend small amounts of time in high intensity interval session - where you recover completely between sessions. All Major Muscle Groups. Spend 2-3 sessions a week hitting all major muscle groups or twice to total muscle fatigue. If you're in post menopause, the volume of sets has to be greater compared to a perimenopause woman. Recover. Give yourself at least 48 hours.. 72 is often BEST.

Following an emergency c-section due to HELLP syndrome in her first pregnancy, Jolene Brink was determined to have a different birthing experience with her second child. Through the support of a knowledgeable medical team and insights gained from her EBB Childbirth Class, she successfully achieved her goal of an unmedicated VBAC with the birth of her son, Guthrie, in 2022. Jolene's journey towards a VBAC was a transformative process of healing, empowerment, and reclaiming her birthing experience, showcasing the importance of advocacy and informed decision-making in maternal healthcare.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was introduced approximately 30 years ago and quickly became the gold standard due to multiple benefits over open cholecystectomy. It ushered in the laparoscopic revolution but also increased the number of bile duct injuries. Through the dedicated efforts of many the rate of bile duct injury has been reduced, now mirroring open cholecystectomy. The robotic surgery revolution is well underway and unsurprisingly this technology has been applied to cholecystectomy. Given the devastating nature of bile duct injury and the history of increased injury with the last major shift in operative approach, we examine the current literature on the comparative safety of robotic-assisted cholecystectomy vs. laparoscopic cholecystectomy. 1.

Paul Herman, UW General Surgery Resident PGY-3, @paul_herm 5. Ben Vierra, UW General Surgery Resident PGY-2 @benvierra95 Learning objectives: 1. Examine the history of the laparoscopic cholecystectomy and review the efforts to reduce bile duct injury (SAGES Safe Cholecystectomy Task Force and Multi-Society Practice Guideline) 2. Review literature on causes and prevention of bile duct injury 3. Review a recent article on robotic cholecystectomy vs laparoscopic cholecystectomy outcomes 4.

MedLink Neurology Podcast is delighted to feature selected episodes from BrainWaves, courtesy of James E Siegler MD, its originator and host. BrainWaves is an academic audio podcast whose mission is to educate medical providers through clinical cases and topical reviews in neurology, medicine, and the humanities. Episodes originally aired from 2016 to 2021. Originally released: November 28, 2019 Peer review prior to publication of medical data dates back to the 9th century CE but has only really gained steam in the past 70 or 80 years. Ideally, peer review would serve as an initial filter for data that enter a permanent public scientific record. But peer review is not without flaws. In the second installment of the BrainWaves segment, “It's not over yet…,” we discuss publication as a potential source of bias and highlight the reasons why it should not be the final step of the peer review process. Produced by James E Siegler. Music courtesy of Cullah, Lee Rosevere, John Bartmann, Kevin McLeod, and Jon Watts. Sound effects by Mike Koenig and Daniel Simion. BrainWaves' podcasts and online content are intended for medical education only and should not be used for clinical decision-making.

Dr. Natalie Scheeler, a naturopathic doctor specializing in integrative treatments for gastrointestinal conditions, shares her perspective and valuable insights on gut health. She discusses the difference between naturopathic doctors and traditional MDs, the use of fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) and Helminthic therapies in treating inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the impact of food and probiotics on IBD, and trends in flare management and remission. Dr. Scheeler also provides information about her practice, Modrn Med, and offers a final message of hope and encouragement for patients seeking alternative or complementary treatment options. Takeaways Naturopathic doctors focus on preventative medicine and finding the root cause through a whole person approach using integrative treatments that can be used alongside conventional therapies. Fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) and Helminthic therapies are alternative treatments for IBD that show promise in inducing remission and maintaining gut health. Diet plays a significant role in creating a diverse microbiome. Modrn Med is an integrative and functional medicine practice that offers telehealth consultations and works in collaboration with other healthcare providers. There are other treatment options available for patients who have not found success with conventional therapies, and it is important to work with a knowledgeable practitioner to explore these options. Topics covered in the interview Difference Between Naturopathic Doctors (ND) and traditional doctors (MD or DO) Integrative Treatments for Gastrointestinal Conditions Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) Impact of Food and Probiotics on IBD Trends in Flare Management and Remission Helminthic Therapies About Modrn Med From the show Stephanie: What are some of the trends that you've seen with helping people to get out of a flare and into remission? Dr. Scheeler: …the dietary aspect is a large trend I'm seeing I think, too, with social media. There's just the ability to spread so much information and so that is oftentimes how people coming into our office and have said, ‘I've tried these diets' or ‘I've done these diets' versus us kind of introducing them to that idea. So that's interesting. The other one is an herb called Qing Dai. It's a Chinese herb…which is an herb that can be really helpful for inducing remission, typically. We usually reserve it for remission induction versus maintenance therapy because there are some safety risks to that…I would always, always recommend working with a provider who's familiar with that herb…something that is important to say is that natural medicine isn't always safer, and it isn't always safe in general. There is risks associated with any treatments that you do. And so knowing those risks, having somebody who is familiar with those risks is important, especially if you are on the kind of quote-unquote conventional medications and add this stuff in, there could be interactions. Stephanie: Can you talk a little bit about the Modrn Med practice and what types of patients you see? Dr. Scheeler: Yeah, so ModernMed, we are a practice, we are all naturopathic doctors. There's four of us there. And we do integrative and functional medicine. A large part of our practice is gastrointestinal disease, including inflammatory bowel disease. I personally see patients exclusively via telehealth…but there is a location in LA, too, if people are interested. With that, since I do telehealth, I'm licensed in California, Arizona, Maryland, Vermont, and Connecticut, as of now. But all of us depending can either see you as patient if we're licensed in that state or do what we consider educational consults. So with patients who live out of state, we can share some of this information with you and help you do things safely or talk with your provider too…it's very common for us to work with other providers, especially myself working with gastroenterologists. I think when we all work as a team is when we get the best outcomes. And so patients, who may be in a state that we're not licensed in, we're comfortable talking to providers and usually there's no issues with that as long as we explain what we're doing. We always do evidence-based medicine. So as long as we share, even if they're not familiar with it off the bat, most people are open to working together and helping the patient out.

Content Warning: postpartum hemorrhage, GBS Positive, antibiotics for GBS, On this episode of the EBB podcast, I talk with Katrina Hull, a graduate of the EBB childbirth class about her positive hospital water birth story. Katrina Hull is a former high school math and engineering teacher with over a decade of experience in the classroom. Her passion for education and entrepreneurship has led her to her current role as coordinating producer at PBS NewsHour Classroom where she develops lesson materials and resources for integrating invention education into classrooms across the country. Katrina shares her experiences taking the EBB childbirth class and discusses in depth the education and work she put into preparing for her desired hospital water birth. In addition to finding her “Golden Ticket” birth team and desired location, she shares the details of her amazing and empowering birth story, despite having a few complications, including finding out she was Group B Strep Positive and handling a postpartum hemorrhage.

Welcome to PsychEd, the psychiatry podcast for medical learners, by medical learners. This episode covers depression in children and adolescents with Dr. Darren Courtney, a scientist with the Cundill Centre for Child and Youth Depression and the Margaret and Wallace McCain Centre for Child, Youth and Family Mental Health and a staff psychiatrist in the Youth Addictions and Concurrent Disorders Service at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) in Toronto. He is also an associate professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Toronto. Dr. Courtney earned his MD in 2004 at Queen's University and completed psychiatry residency in 2009 at the University of Ottawa. He was the clinical director of the Youth Inpatient Unit at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre from 2009 to 2014 and moved to Toronto in 2014, where he worked on the Concurrent Youth Inpatient Unit at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health until 2017 and where his clinical work with concurrent disorders continues now with outpatient youth. Dr. Courtney's research focus is on the treatment of adolescent depression through the use of an integrated care pathway — a collaboratively developed treatment algorithm based on high-quality clinical practice guidelines. Through his research, he works on identifying quality practice guidelines and corresponding multi-disciplinary care pathways to facilitate evidence-based and measurement-based care for adolescents with depression. He has also participated in a systematic review and quality appraisal of clinical practice guidelines for psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents. Additionally, he has an interest in the management of concurrent disorders, where young people are affected by both primary psychiatric disorders and substance use disorders. The learning objectives for this episode are as follows: By the end of this episode, you should be able to… Outline the prevalence and risk factors for depression in children and adolescents Explain how children and adolescents with depression present in clinical practice Discuss the use of screening tools for depression in this population Describe an approach to the management of depression in children and adolescents Outline the management of an adolescent with suicidal thoughts or behaviours Guest: Dr. Darren Courtney Hosts: Kate Braithwaite (MD) and Nikhita Singhal (PGY5) Audio editing by: Nikhita Singhal Show notes by: Kate Braithwaite and Nikhita Singhal Interview Content: Introduction - 0:00 Learning objectives - 02:11 Prevalence of depression in youth - 03:11 Risk factors for depression in youth - 06:25 Diagnosing depression in youth - 08:30 Screening tools - 14:24 Approach to taking a history from youth - 19:45 Management of depression in youth - 30:12 Psychotherapies - 33:20 Medications - 37:37 Assessing and managing suicidality in youth - 44:00 Measurement based care - 51:00 Final thoughts - 55:10 Resources: Previous PsychEd episodes: PsychEd Episode 1: Diagnosis of Depression with Dr. Ilana Shawn PsychEd Episode 2: Treatment of Depression with Dr. Sidney Kennedy PsychEd Episode 18: Assessing Suicide Risk with Dr. Juveria Zaheer ICHOM Set of Patient-Centered Outcome Measures for Children & Young People with Depression & Anxiety Screening tools/rating scales: Revised Children's Anxiety and Depression Scale (RCADS) Mood and Feelings Questionnaire (MFQ) NICE guideline: Depression in children and young people: identification and management NICE guideline: Self-harm: assessment, management and preventing recurrence The CARIBOU Pathway by CAMH: A youth-centered program for the treatment of depression Includes links to download free clinician-specific and youth-specific resources co-developed with youth and mental health clinicians Clinical Innovations and Tools | Cundill Centre for Child and Youth Depression | CAMH Includes links to various tools for health care providers, researchers, youth, and other stakeholders (such as teachers and family members) informed by research evidence References: Bennett K, Courtney D, Duda S, Henderson J, Szatmari P.

In this episode we discuss a case scenario of Asthma exacerbation. This can be one of the most challenging patients to manage on the ventilator. If at all possible we try not to intubate these patients, however there are times when this happens. We will discuss clinical treatment, ventilator management, and what our rolls are as transport clinicians in the transport of these patients.

Today, I am excited to share a replay of one of my favorite birth stories featured on the Evidence Based Birth® podcast. EBB childbirth class graduates, Brooklyn and Hoang Pham, share their power and miraculous birth story, which became an instant classic and truly touched my heart. As a content warning, we talk about the significantly high rates of maternal mortality among Black and Brown individuals and racism in birth work. On today's podcast, we will be talking with Brooklynn and Hoang Pham. Brooklynn and Hoang currently live in Davis, California, and are the parents to Marvel, who turned seven months last December. Brooklynn is the senior managing director of Teach For America in Sacramento, and Hoang is finishing up his final year of law school at UC Davis School of Law. They took the Evidence Based Birth® Childbirth class with EBB instructor, Shalin Butterworth, and are here to share their birth story. We will talk about Brooklynn's and Hoang's empowering experience when they attended the Evidence Based Birth® Childbirth class and how it prepared them to feel ready for their powerful and miraculous birth with their doula and EBB instructor, Shalin.
