In this conversation, Peter Brindley and Leon Byker sit down with Peter Kruger, President of the College of Intensive Care Medicine, to unpack one of the defining issues facing healthcare today: workforce reform.Against the backdrop of national workforce reviews across Australia and New Zealand, the discussion explores the tension between aspiration and reality. Governments want equitable access, rural coverage, sustainable systems, and improved wellbeing for clinicians. Colleges want standards, safety, and meaningful careers. Trainees want jobs. Communities want hospitals. Politicians want solutions.So how do we reconcile all of it?Dr. Kruger reflects on the growing engagement between specialist colleges and government, particularly around workforce maldistribution, rural and regional care, sub-specialization versus generalism, and the moral complexity of relying on internationally trained doctors. The conversation highlights a key truth: intensive care is a hospital-based, system-dependent specialty. You cannot simply “place a doctor” in a community without the supporting infrastructure.The episode also tackles uncomfortable but necessary questions:Can there be a universal standard for ICU access across vastly different hospital settings?Should governments mandate rural placements—or can communities be strengthened from within?What role should nurse practitioners and multidisciplinary teams play?Are we protecting turf, or protecting patients?And how do we better support doctors across the entire career pipeline—from medical student to senior intensivist winding down night shifts?Throughout, the tone is candid but diplomatic. There's recognition that workforce reform is complex, long-standing, and resistant to simple solutions. Yet there is also optimism: trust, transparency, and genuine partnership between colleges and government may offer a way forward.At its core, this episode is about purpose. The shared mission between clinicians, colleges, and governments is delivering safe, effective care to the community. The challenge lies in doing so while balancing standards, sustainability, and humanity.

This episode is shared from Critical Care, a podcast produced by Shephard Studio in partnership with Collins Aerospace. Sustainment has long been seen as a downstream concern — something to be managed after procurement. But what happens when you flip that mindset?In this final episode of the current Critical Care series, produced by Shephard Studio in partnership with Collins Aerospace, we look at the next evolution of military aircraft support — one where sustainment is not only part of the mission, but designed into the platform from day one.We hear from key voices across Collins Aerospace, including Chris Norris, Mike Yunker, Marc Harrington and Michael Nelson, as they explore how predictive maintenance, digital engineering and common systems are reshaping the entire lifecycle of defence aviation. They discuss how AI, real-time data and open architecture are driving faster fixes, smarter logistics and more agile support — not in theory, but in practice.From augmented reality goggles for remote troubleshooting to embedded analytics that forecast component failures before they happen, this episode reveals how the future of sustainment is becoming faster, more integrated and more aligned with the operational tempo of the modern battlespace.More than technology, it's a cultural shift. Sustainment is no longer a separate conversation — it's central to design, procurement and mission success.
The model for Foundry youth centres is based on “coming together, listening and learning.” This is more than just a slogan: It's what they actually do. Created to remove barriers to quality care for youth ages 12-24 in British Columbia, Foundry centres bring together integrated health, wellness and social services for young people in one location. At a time when one in four Canadian youth are affected by mental health or substance use challenges, being able to open one door to access a range of support services can make all the difference.But Foundry centres also feature another unique aspect: opportunities for young people to share their ideas and feedback on how these wellness hubs can better serve their peers and provide preventative support for mental health or substance use—issues that, left unchecked, can result in future visits to already over-crowded emergency departments.In part two of our compelling exploration of Foundry and the integrated health and wellness services it provides, you'll met Ruby and Oscean, two articulate post-secondary students who are volunteering to help shape the new youth centre coming to South Surrey/White Rock. Both speak candidly about their own lived experiences with mental health, and the challenges facing their friends and others from their age group.Also joining the conversation is George Passmore, Executive Director with Sources BC, a non-profit, community-based provider of social wellness programs and services and, with support from the Peace Arch Hospital Foundation, the lead organization behind the new Foundry centre.Links: Foundry BC foundrybc.ca | Sources BC sourcesbc.caFor more information or to make a donation, visit Peace Arch Hospital Foundation at pahfoundation.caAbout Power to HealHosted by former Peace Arch News editor Lance Peverley, the Power to Heal podcast takes listeners behind the scenes with the Peace Arch Hospital Foundation as this innovative fund-raising organization develops partnerships with donors, medical staff and community groups to help foster better health and wellness in the community of South Surrey/White Rock BC.#podcast

Send a textKann eine transösophageale Echokardiographie (TEE) bereits präklinisch während laufender Reanimation eingesetzt werden, ohne die CPR-Qualität zu beeinträchtigen? In dieser Episode analysieren wir die erste randomisierte kontrollierte Pilotstudie zur prähospitalen TEE bei außerklinischem Herz-Kreislauf-Stillstand (OHCA) und diskutieren Effekte auf Chest Compression Fraction, EtCO₂ sowie diagnostische und prozedurale Konsequenzen.Katzenschlager S, Kaltschmidt N, Dietrich M, et al.Prehospital transesophageal echocardiography versus conventional advanced life support in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (PHTEE–OHCA): a randomized controlled pilot study.Critical Care. 2026;30:45.DOI: 10.1186/s13054-025-05805-w Die Qualität der Thoraxkompressionen ist ein zentraler Determinant des Outcomes beim außerklinischen Herz-Kreislauf-Stillstand (OHCA). Während transthorakale Echokardiographie (TTE) in Leitlinien empfohlen wird, kann sie zu prolongierten Hands-off-Phasen führen. Die transösophageale Echokardiographie (TEE) erlaubt dagegen Bildgebung unter laufender Kompression und könnte sowohl die Reanimationsqualität als auch die Identifikation reversibler Ursachen verbessern.In dieser randomisierten, kontrollierten Pilotstudie wurden 32 erwachsene Patient:innen mit nicht-traumatischem OHCA in einem arztbesetzten zweistufigen Rettungsdienstsystem 1:1 zu Standard-ALS oder ALS plus TEE randomisiert. Primäre Endpunkte waren Hands-off-Zeit und Chest Compression Fraction (CCF). Sekundäre Endpunkte umfassten ROSC bei Krankenhausaufnahme, Überleben bis Entlassung, neurologisches Outcome (CPC 1–2), EtCO₂-Verlauf sowie TEE-basierte diagnostische Befunde.Die mediane Hands-off-Zeit betrug in beiden Gruppen 4 Sekunden; es zeigte sich kein signifikanter Unterschied. Die CCF war jedoch signifikant höher in der TEE-Gruppe (96,2 % vs. 91,6 %; mittlere Differenz 4,6 %, 95 %-KI 2,5–6,7; p < 0,001). EtCO₂-Werte lagen ebenfalls signifikant höher in der TEE-Gruppe (+7 mmHg; 95 %-KI 4–10; p < 0,001), was auf effektivere Perfusion hinweisen könnte.In der as-treated-Analyse wurden bei 23 % der Fälle eine initial falsche Area of Maximal Compression (AMC) sowie bei 14 % eine inadäquate Kompressionstiefe identifiziert und unter TEE-Guidance korrigiert. Perikardergüsse wurden in 23 % diagnostiziert, davon 60 % hämodynamisch relevant (Tamponade). In allen eCPR-Fällen war eine Visualisierung von Führungsdrähten und Kanülenlage möglich. TEE-bedingte Komplikationen wurden nicht beobachtet.Die Studie zeigt, dass prähospitale TEE technisch machbar ist und CPR-Metriken nicht beeinträchtigt. Darüber hinaus liefert sie relevante diagnostische Informationen und ermöglicht prozedurale Guidance. Aufgrund der geringen Fallzahl ist jedoch keine Aussage zu Überlebensvorteilen möglich.

This episode is shared from Critical Care, a podcast produced by Shephard Studio in partnership with Collins Aerospace.What happens when sustainment stops being a service and becomes a partnership?In this episode of Critical Care, produced by Shephard Studio in partnership with Collins Aerospace, we head to Vliegbasis Woensdrecht in the Netherlands to see a new model of military aviation support in action — one that places engineers not behind desks, but on the hangar floor, shoulder to shoulder with pilots and technicians.Colonel Ted Meeuwsen of the Royal Netherlands Air Force shares how an initial contractor relationship with Collins evolved into something far deeper: an embedded, trust-based collaboration that has transformed how quickly sustainment issues are resolved — often within hours, not weeks. What began as workshop-level support for helmet systems has grown into a dynamic model of co-located engineering, real-time diagnostics and a shared commitment to mission readiness.We also hear from Chris Norris and Michael Nelson of Collins Aerospace, who explain how this approach goes far beyond shortening repair cycles. It reduces risk, enhances sovereignty, and creates a blueprint for other nations facing similar challenges.As the pace of technology accelerates and operational demands mount, this episode shows how co-location, communication and collaboration can reshape sustainment from a supply chain issue into a strategic advantage.Next time, we look ahead to the technologies set to revolutionise sustainment — from AI-powered diagnostics to predictive maintenance and condition-based logistics.

This episode is shared from Critical Care, a podcast produced by Shephard Studio in partnership with Collins Aerospace.As Europe ramps up defence investment in the wake of the Ukraine crisis, the spotlight is turning to how nations sustain their growing fleets. In this episode of Critical Care, produced by Shephard Studio in partnership with Collins Aerospace, we travel to Heidelberg, Germany — home to a regional sustainment hub that's proving crucial for fast, local support across Europe and beyond.We hear from Holger Eckstein, Michael Mayer and Michael Nelson – leaders within Collins' sustainment operations – as they explain how the Heidelberg service centre is handling everything from Eurofighter and Tornado repairs to complex electronics for helicopters and land platforms. They reveal how deep regional expertise, long-term partnerships with primes like Airbus and BAE Systems, and close ties to international customers are transforming the speed and scale of military readiness.From reducing reliance on transatlantic repair cycles to enabling more responsive support for customers like the Royal Saudi Air Force, this episode explores how Heidelberg's model of forward sustainment is setting a new benchmark. We also look at how Europe's fragmented defence landscape is starting to shift towards more unified, collaborative approaches — not just for procurement, but for long-term support.What emerges is a clear message: rapid, reliable sustainment isn't a nice-to-have. It's essential for operational credibility in a fast-changing world.Coming up next: we head to the Netherlands to see what happens when Collins' engineers go embedded with the Royal Netherlands Air Force, working side by side on the hangar floor.

"I have recorded over 500 deaths in my journal... and I can tell you, the room gets crowded when we pass." Join Sandra for a moving interview with Dr. Adam Rizvi, a Critical Care Physician and Neurologist who has spent decades on the frontlines of the ICU. Dr. Rizvi began keeping a "Death Journal" to process the grief of losing patients, and what he discovered changed his view of reality forever. In this episode, Dr. Rizvi shares the unexplainable phenomena he witnesses at the bedside. He tells the incredible story of a dying father whose blood pressure was so low he should have been unconscious, yet he stayed awake and conversing until the exact moment his son walked in the door. He also discusses the medical evidence for the afterlife, sharing cases where patients had zero brain activity yet woke up with clear memories of what happened. This is a powerful conversation about the "Crowded Room" phenomenon, the power of True Forgiveness to heal decades of estrangement, and the visual proof that something leaves the body when we die. In this episode: * The Death Journal: Lessons from witnessing 500+ transitions. * The Impossible Goodbye: How a dying man held on against medical odds for his son. * The "Crowded Room": Why the room feels "standing room only" when someone dies. * Visual Phenomena: Dr. Rizvi describes seeing a ball of light leave a patient's forehead. * Medical Proof: Consciousness exists even when the EEG is flat. * Healing Estrangement: A moving story of a father and daughters reuniting after 30 years.

Course Highlights: Credit: 12.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ Curriculum: Comprehensive coverage of Core Emergency Medicine, with 12 modules spanning from Critical Care to Pediatrics. Cost: Free for NYU Learners $250 for Non-NYU Learners Click Here to Register and Begin Module 1 The Clinical Case Presentation: 60-year-old male with a history of HTN and asthma. EMS Findings: Severe respiratory distress, SpO₂ in the 60s on NRB, HR 120, BP 230/180. Exam: Diaphoretic, diffuse crackles, warm extremities, pitting edema, and significant fatigue/work of breathing. Pre-hospital meds: NRB, Duonebs, Dexamethasone, and IM Epinephrine (under the assumption of severe asthma/anaphylaxis). Differential Diagnosis for the Hypoxic/Tachypneic Patient Pulmonary: Asthma/COPD, Pneumonia, ARDS, PE, Pneumothorax, Pulmonary Edema, ILD, Anaphylaxis. Cardiac: CHF, ACS, Tamponade. Systemic: Anemia, Acidosis. Neuro: Neuromuscular weakness. What is SCAPE? Sympathetic Crashing Acute Pulmonary Edema (SCAPE) is characterized by a sudden, massive sympathetic surge leading to intense vasoconstriction and a precipitous rise in afterload. Pathophysiology: Unlike HFrEF, these patients are often euvolemic or even hypovolemic. The primary issue is fluid maldistribution (fluid shifting from the vasculature into the lungs) due to extreme afterload. Bedside Diagnosis: POCUS vs. CXR POCUS is the gold standard for rapid bedside diagnosis. Lung Ultrasound: Look for diffuse B-lines (≥3 in ≥2 bilateral zones). Cardiac: Assess LV function and check for pericardial effusion. Why not CXR? A meta-analysis shows LUS has a sensitivity of ~88% and specificity of ~90%, whereas CXR sensitivity is only ~73%. Importantly, up to 20% of patients with decompensated HF will have a normal CXR. Management Strategy 1. NIPPV (CPAP or BiPAP) Start NIPPV immediately to reduce preload/afterload and recruit alveoli. Settings: CPAP 5–8 cm H₂O or BiPAP 10/5 cm H₂O. Escalate EPAP quickly but keep pressures to avoid gastric insufflation. Evidence: NIPPV reduces mortality (NNT 17) and intubation rates (NNT 13). 2. High-Dose Nitroglycerin The goal is to drop SBP to < 140–160 mmHg within minutes. No IV Access: 3–5 SL tabs (0.4 mg each) simultaneously. IV Bolus: 500–1000 mcg over 2 minutes. IV Infusion: Start at 100–200 mcg/min; titrate up rapidly (doses > 800 mcg/min may be required). Safety: ACEP policy supports high-dose NTG as both safe and effective for hypertensive HF. Use a dedicated line/short tubing to prevent adsorption issues. 3. Refractory Hypertension If SBP remains > 160 mmHg despite NIPPV and aggressive NTG, add a second vasodilator: Clevidipine: Ultra-short-acting calcium channel blocker (titratable and rapid). Nicardipine: Effective alternative for rapid BP control. Enalaprilat: Consider if the above are unavailable. Troubleshooting & Pitfalls The “Mask Intolerant” Patient Hypoxia is the primary driver of agitation. NIPPV is the best sedative. * Pharmacology: If needed, use small doses of benzodiazepines (Midazolam 0.5–1 mg IV). AVOID Morphine: Data suggests higher rates of adverse events, invasive ventilation, and mortality. A 2022 RCT was halted early due to harm in the morphine arm (43% adverse events vs. 18% with midazolam). The Role of Diuretics In SCAPE, diuretics are not first-line. The problem is redistribution, not volume excess. Diuretics will not help in the first 15–30 minutes and may worsen kidney function in a (relatively) hypovolemic patient. Delay Diuretics until the patient is stabilized and clear systemic volume overload (edema, weight gain) is confirmed. Disposition Admission: Typically requires CCU/ICU for ongoing NIPPV and titration of vasoactive infusions. Weaning: As BP normalizes and work of breathing improves, infusions and NIPPV can be gradually tapered. Take-Home Points Recognize SCAPE: Hyperacute dyspnea + severe HTN. Trust your POCUS (B-lines) over a “clear” CXR. NIPPV Immediately: Don’t wait. It saves lives and prevents tubes. High-Dose NTG: Use boluses to “catch up” to the sympathetic surge. Don’t fear the dose. Avoid Morphine: Use small doses of benzos if the patient is struggling with the mask. Lasix Later: Prioritize afterload reduction over diuresis in the hyperacute phase. Read More

ECMO is the topic of this week's episode of Pediheart. We speak with Assistant Professor of Pediatrics and cardiac critical care specialist at Northwell Health, Dr. Ivana Capin about a recent ELSO database study she conducted to assess outcomes in single ventricle patients who were treated with ECMO prior to single ventricle palliation. What factors were associated with worse overall outcomes? Can this therapy be used to stabilize the HLHS patient with an intact atrial septum? Why have outcomes for this high risk patient group not appreciably improved in the recent decade? How can these data improve prognostic clarity when speaking with families in this difficult situation.Also joining us briefly is Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Dr. Scott Aydin to discuss his co-author and mentor, Dr. George Ofori-Amanfo as we approach the 4th anniversary of his untimely and tragic passing.

Conversación con los autores del caso clínico publicado en International Journal of Emergency Medicine (2025) En este episodio del ECCpodcast, conversamos con los autores del caso "Cardiopulmonary resuscitation-induced consciousness in an elderly patient: a case report in the prehospital setting"—un fenómeno sorprendente y todavía poco comprendido: la conciencia inducida por RCP (CPRIC). Hablamos con Jose Daniel Yusty-Prada y Jose Luis Piñeros-Alvarez, quienes documentaron la historia de un paciente de 80 años que, sin haber recuperado pulso, comenzó a moverse, hacer sonidos y quitarse el equipo… durante las compresiones torácicas. Este caso abre una conversación fundamental sobre la fisiología, el manejo clínico, la ética y la capacitación necesaria para enfrentar CPRIC en entornos reales. Contexto del Caso El paciente colapsó en un área pública, rápidamente reconocido como un paro cardíaco presenciado. Los testigos iniciaron compresiones inmediatas, y un equipo BLS llegó con un AED, confirmando un ritmo desfibrilable. Durante los ciclos iniciales de RCP, el paciente comenzó a: flexionar las piernas, mover brazos, intentar remover el BVM y los parches, vocalizar sonidos, y mover la cabeza. Todo esto sin pulso palpable y sin signos de perfusión sostenida. Los movimientos desaparecían al detener las compresiones y reaparecían al reanudarlas: un patrón clásico de CPRIC. Esto provocó interrupciones prematuras por parte del equipo, dudas entre los testigos e incluso conflictos psicológicos en los rescatistas, quienes inicialmente pensaron que el paciente "despertaba". Finalmente, tras múltiples desfibrilaciones y sin sedación disponible en protocolo, se logró ROSC. ¿Qué es CPR-Induced Consciousness (CPRIC)? Los autores explican que CPRIC es un fenómeno real, probablemente subdiagnosticado, en el cual un paciente sin pulso presenta: Formas interferentes Intentar quitarse dispositivos Empujar a los rescatistas Movimientos coordinados Vocalizaciones Mover cabeza, brazos o piernas Formas no interferentes Parpadeo Mirada fija o seguimiento Suspiros Movimientos mínimos La evidencia señala que CPRIC ocurre más en: paros presenciados, ritmos desfibrilables, paro de causa cardiaca, CPR de alta calidad, y pacientes sin daño cerebral previo severo. Cada vez vemos más casos porque estamos dando mejor RCP, con mayor perfusión cerebral y más equipos con feedback. Retos del Caso: Técnica, logística y psicología Uno de los aspectos más valiosos del episodio es cuando los autores discuten cómo el fenómeno impacta al equipo. 1. Interrupciones prematuras Los movimientos llevaron al equipo a detener compresiones 30–40 segundos antes del análisis del AED, y esto puede comprometer el éxito de la desfibrilación. 2. Manejo de vía aérea Los movimientos orales hicieron imposible avanzar más allá del OPA + BVM. Intentar insertar una supraglótica se volvió riesgoso. 3. Interferencia del público Familiares y testigos gritaban que el paciente estaba "despertando" y pedían detener la RCP. Esto modificó la toma de decisiones del equipo. 4. Dilema ético y emocional Los autores describen la experiencia como "desconcertante", incluso sabiendo que el paciente estaba en VF refractaria. Sedación en CPRIC: ¿Cuándo? ¿Cómo? ¿Con qué? El artículo y los autores coinciden en que la evidencia actual favorece el uso de ketamina para manejar CPRIC interferente: 0.5–1 mg/kg IV o bolos de 50–100 mg Ventajas: No compromete presión arterial No deprime respiración Inicio muy rápido Ayuda en estrés psicológico post-evento Sin embargo: La mayoría de los sistemas en Latinoamérica no tienen protocolos Providers temen administrar sedación en pleno paro No existe guía formal de AHA o ERC ILCOR solo tiene un best practice statement Los autores recalcan que la sedación debe considerarse solo si CPRIC interfiere con las maniobras. Lecciones para EMS y emergencias Los autores destacan tres grandes enseñanzas: 1. CPRIC no es ROSC Si no hay pulso, no hay circulación espontánea, aunque el paciente hable o se mueva. 2. La educación pública es crucial Los testigos pueden ejercer presión equivocada. Es necesario explicar durante la escena qué está pasando. 3. Los sistemas deben crear protocolos ya Incluyendo: reconocimiento temprano decisiones sobre sedación documentación comunicación con familiares entrenamiento en simulación Por qué este caso es importante Este artículo es uno de los pocos reportes en un paciente geriátrico, resalta desafíos culturales en Latinoamérica y propone la urgente necesidad de estandarización internacional. CPRIC seguirá aumentando porque la RCP sigue mejorando. Y si no lo reconocemos, aumentarán: interrupciones innecesarias, conflictos en escena, mala calidad de RCP, y peor pronóstico.

Smoking is the main risk factor for COPD in the United States and many other countries. However, it is important to recall that there are other causes of COPD, from birth experiences to environmental exposures. COPD expert Meilan K. Han MD, MS, University of Michigan Health, discusses non-smoking causes of COPD, what patients can do to manage their symptoms, and how clinicians and communities can help.

When we think of sunlight, vitamin D is usually the first thing that comes to mind. But the truth is, the full spectrum of light that we get exposed to when we spend time outside plays a vital role in how we sleep, how we feel and even how our cells create energy. This week's returning guest is Dr Roger Seheult, who believes that sunlight is one of the most accessible and underutilised tools we have for improving health – and the science he shares is compelling. I'm delighted to welcome back to my Feel Better, Live More podcast for our third conversation. Roger is a quadruple board-certified physician in Internal Medicine, Pulmonary Diseases, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine. He is also an Associate Clinical Professor at the University of California, Riverside, and Assistant Clinical Professor at Loma Linda University. Alongside his clinical practice, he co-founded MedCram, a medical education platform with over one million YouTube subscribers, widely used by hospitals and medical schools worldwide. Roger is also a sought after lecturer and has received multiple awards for his contributions to medicine and education. His passion lies in making complex medical science accessible, and he regularly lectures to schools, hospitals and media outlets. In this conversation, we discuss: Why deficiency in sunlight can show up as fatigue, poor sleep, inflammation or even raised cholesterol. The three “macronutrients” of light – visible, ultraviolet and infrared – and how each plays a different role in mood, immunity and cellular energy. How infrared light penetrates deep into the body, supporting mitochondrial function and how it may help protect against diseases such as diabetes and dementia. Why spending 15–20 minutes a day outside – even in the shade – can be enough to recharge our cells. The growing evidence that sunlight exposure lowers the risk of all-cause mortality, cancer and heart disease. Practical strategies for getting the benefits of sunlight safely, even if you live in colder climates or spend much of your day indoors. Roger also shares his “eight laws of health” – simple, timeless principles that include nutrition, rest, fresh air and sunlight – and explains how neglecting them leads to the chronic conditions he often sees in his work in intensive care. This is a fascinating conversation that will change how you think about sunlight. It isn't just something that makes us feel good – it's a fundamental part of how our bodies stay healthy. And the best part? It's free and available to us all. I hope you enjoy listening. Support the podcast and enjoy Ad-Free episodes.
