This week on Critical Care Time, Nick & Cyrus discuss the recent article in the Journal of Critical Care titled “Impact of initial jugular vein insertion site selection for central venous catheter placement on hemodialysis catheter complications.” Is this bunk or is this practice changing? Did they select the right population for this study or is the question they asked and answered... maybe not such a great question? We'll cover all this and more during this week's episode! Please take a listen, react, reach out & as always - don't forget to leave a review! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, host Kyle B. Enfield, MD, FCCM, welcomes Vincenzo Russotto, MD, of the University of Turin in Turin, Italy to discuss Dr. Russotto's article, “Induction Agents for Tracheal Intubation in Critically Ill Patients,” published in the January 2025 issue of Critical Care Medicine. Drs. Enfield and Russotto explore the decision of which induction drugs to use for patients undergoing tracheal intubation. They discuss research challenges such as the ethics of which drugs can be tested on patients and the emergent nature of many tracheal intubations. Dr. Russotto discusses the advantages and disadvantages of ketamine as an induction agent and describes current clinical thinking on etomidate and propofol. His study made no definitive conclusions but found evidence that ketamine may have a safer profile and etomidate and propofol may be associated with negative effects. Dr. Russotto emphasizes the need to individualize patient treatment and shares examples of induction agent combinations. He encourages clinicians to consider hemodynamic optimization along with the use of intubation agents. Listeners will gain insights to inform patient care.

With nearly one in ten newborns in the US requiring care in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, the importance of NICUs has never been more clear. On today's episode of Raise the Line, we're shining a light on the extraordinary world of NICUs with Lindsay Howard, a veteran nurse with over 17 years of experience caring for premature and critically ill infants. She currently works in a Level IV NICU at Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston, one of the most advanced neonatal units in the country. “We call ourselves ‘the ER of the neonate world' because we're never full. We have to make space no matter what comes in off the street, and at the biggest medical center in the world, we see all the things,” she explains. In this enlightening conversation with host Lindsey Smith, Howard describes how advances in medicine have made it possible to provide more types of care for younger and smaller babies, creating a need for NICU nurses to develop subspecialties. In her case, Howard is on a dedicated team that handles the placement and maintenance of all central line IVs, and has earned certifications in neonatal and pediatric chemotherapy and biotherapies. “We see babies that we may not have seen before being born with cancerous tumors who need chemotherapy to try and eliminate it, or just give them more time with their family.” This is a revealing look inside the workings of a top tier NICU where you'll learn about approaches to care that support healthy neurodevelopment, how clinical staff handle the emotional challenges of the job, and how her own experience as a mother with twins needing NICU care impacted her work.  Mentioned in this episode:Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Recorded at this year's Evidence Based Perioperative Medicine (EBPOM) World Congress held in London, this episode of TopMedTalk features Andy Cumpstey with his guests TJ Gan, Professor and Division Head, Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine, UT Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, USA, and Tim Miller, Professor of Anesthesiology at Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC, USA. The conversation provides insights on the key themes and developments from the conference. They discuss the critical importance of postoperative monitoring and interventions, including haemodynamic management, advanced monitoring systems, and the integration of new technologies such as AI and wearables. They emphasize evolution in surgical practices, particularly the shift towards outpatient procedures facilitated by robotic surgery. The conversation then highlights the global need for enhanced postoperative care standards and the potential future directions in perioperative medicine.

In this episode, Stuart Haines, JACCP Editor-in-Chief, interviews Dr. Andrea Sikora, Dr. Brian Murray, and Dr. Susan Smith about their recently published consensus recommendations for integrating critical care pharmacists into intensive care unit (ICU) teams which was endorsed by ACCP as well as the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses, American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Institute of Safe Medication Practices, and the Society of Critical Care Medicine.  The paper was published in the September 2025 issue of JACCP and is available open access. The document addresses the "unmet need" of operationalizing the pharmacist's role, as evidence suggests that many ICUs still lack a critical care pharmacist. The recommendations go beyond simply advocating for pharmacists; they provide a blueprint for hospitals to optimize pharmacist services, including direct and indirect patient care activities. The paper and its supplementary materials, which include an institutional assessment checklist, can be used to improve the quality of patient care.

Critical care in the United States faces a mounting crisis. With a shortage of board-certified intensivists and younger, less experienced nurses filling ICUs, hospitals often struggle to provide timely, gold-standard care. Studies show that hospitals with board-certified intensivists in their ICUs see a 30% reduction in patient mortality, yet thousands of facilities still lack this vital expertise.So, how can technology close the critical care gap and help hospitals meet these new quality standards while supporting overburdened staff?In this episode of I Don't Care, host Dr. Kevin Stevenson sits down with Dr. Diego Reino, CEO of Intercept Telehealth, to explore how virtual critical care, telestroke, and virtual nursing are transforming hospital operations. The conversation covers how Intercept leverages a fully decentralized model to recruit top intensivists nationwide, integrates ICU bedside data into remote platforms, and provides hospitals with proactive, equitable, and scalable patient care.Key Takeaways:Virtual critical care fills critical staffing gaps: Intercept's decentralized network allows intensivists and nurse practitioners across the country to provide real-time ICU support, even in high-acuity situations.Technology transforms speed and access: Integrated platforms transmit live bedside data, enabling near-instant intensivist response times—averaging 36 seconds compared to the five-minute benchmark.Beyond ICU coverage: Intercept also delivers telestroke, teleneurology, virtual nursing, and telesepsis programs, helping hospitals improve patient safety, meet compliance standards, and support younger, less-experienced nurses.Dr. Diego Reino is a liver and kidney transplant surgeon and the President and CEO of Intercept Telehealth. He trained at UCLA in transplant surgery and began his career at the Cleveland Clinic in Florida. Driven by a commitment to equity in critical care, Dr. Reino founded Intercept to harness technology and provide gold-standard ICU coverage to hospitals nationwide. His leadership continues to expand access to specialized care, from virtual critical care to stroke and sepsis management.

Every anesthesia professional has encountered IV infiltration—but when neuromuscular blocking agents are involved, this common complication becomes a complex patient safety challenge with no established guidelines.This episode delves into the critical management of infiltrated paralytics, a complication affecting 14% of peripheral IV catheterizations that can lead to delayed induction, compromised emergence, and potentially serious tissue injury. We're joined by Dr. Govind Rangrass, Professor of Anesthesiology and Critical Care, who shares why this overlooked issue deserves urgent attention: "When a paralytic is involved, the complexity skyrockets and there's almost no literature to guide us."We break down a comprehensive management algorithm, from the counterintuitive first step of leaving the infiltrated catheter in place to attempt medication aspiration, through systemic absorption enhancement techniques using hyaluronidase and nitroglycerin paste. The episode covers detailed reversal strategies based on monitoring capabilities, explaining how to prevent recurarization and safely manage these patients postoperatively.Beyond immediate management, we look toward a future where infiltration detection technologies and standardized guidelines are integrated into residency training and crisis checklists. This episode provides the missing guidance that anesthesia professionals need to navigate this surprisingly common complication with confidence.Have you experienced neuromuscular blocker infiltration in your practice? What strategies have worked for you?

Lung cancer, particularly non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is the deadliest cancer worldwide. Cigarette smoking is one of the main causes, but not every smoker develops the disease. This suggests that other biological factors help determine who develops cancer. Researchers from the Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care, Sleep and Occupational Medicine, Indianapolis, and from the Richard L. Roudebush Veterans Affairs Medical Center have now found that cigarette smoke, combined with a weakened DNA repair system, can trigger the early stages of lung cancer, particularly NSCLC. This work, led by first author Nawar Al Nasralla and corresponding author Catherine R. Sears, was recently published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget.

Critical Care (Star Trek: Voyager, S7 E5) was recommended by Marky See He/Him, who said: Hi Folks,I am loving the show. Growing up, my Dad and I weren't very close, he was much more inclined to sports where I am cut from a much nerdier cloth. We do however share a love of Sci Fi and I remember vividly sitting down together to watch Voyager when it came out.Inspired by the Joy of Trek, I set out to rewatch Voyager as I haven't watched an episode since the early 00s.As a teen, I loved Voyager for the danger, action and adventure, but on the rewatch I have really enjoyed the study of humanity portrayed by characters like Seven and The Doctor.I love this episode as it adds to the numerous other discussions and the theme of whether or not The Doctor is a sentient being or just a piece of very smart technology. Building on his morals being overwritten in Equinox so he could experiment on Seven, his memory being erased in latent image so he could keep functioning and now in climax Critical Care, choosing a path of action that could actually cause harm to a patient in a tiered system of health care that sadly is not unfamiliar to us 23 years after it was aired.Critical Care first aired on November 1, 2000, written by story by Kenneth Biller and Robert Doherty, teleplay by James Kahn, and directed by Terry WindellThe Doctor's program is stolen and he is forced to work in an alien hospital, where he skillfully manipulates the system to provide ethical medical care.The Joy of Trek is hosted by Khaki & Kay, with editing & production by Chief Engineer Greg and music by Fox Amoore (Bandcamp | Bluesky)Send us your recommendations, or support us on Patreon.Find us at joyoftrek.com · Twitter · Facebook

Our next guest, Doug Evans, is revolutionizing critical care as President and CEO of Lungpacer Medical. With over three decades of medical device innovation and 300+ issued patents, Doug's personal mission was born from tragedy when his 14-year-old son required mechanical ventilation during his cancer battle. This heartbreaking experience drove Doug to tackle ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction, a condition that affects millions and contributes to the staggering 50% mortality rate among ventilated patients. Through groundbreaking neurostimulation technology, Doug and his team achieved the impossible—FDA approval for the first device designed to strengthen patients' diaphragms while on ventilation. Join us to discover how Lungpacer's pioneering AeroPace System is transforming outcomes, reducing ventilator dependency, and offering hope to families facing their darkest hours. Let's go!Episode Highlights:Personal Mission Born from Tragedy: Doug founded Lungpacer Medical after his 14-year-old son Cameron required mechanical ventilation during his cancer battle, driving his commitment to improve outcomes for critically ill patients.Historic FDA Breakthrough: In December 2024, Lungpacer's AeroPace System became the first and only FDA-approved device designed to strengthen the diaphragm in mechanically ventilated patients.Proven Clinical Results: The AeroPace System reduces ventilator time by 3 days, decreases 30-day ventilator dependency risk by 35%, and cuts re-ventilation risk by 60%.Life-Saving Patient Impact: Doug shared the powerful story of their first U.S. patient who had given up hope and wanted life support removed, but was saved through their technology and went home for the holidays.Next-Generation Innovation: The investigational AeroNova System promises continuous diaphragm stimulation with every breath, potentially improving not just muscle strength but also lung, brain, and heart function.About our Guest:Doug Evans brings over three decades of medical device innovation to his role as President and CEO of Lungpacer Medical Inc. As a serial entrepreneur and inventor, Doug has developed more than 3 00 issued patents covering pioneering devices that have revolutionized healthcare for over 15 million patients worldwide. Doug's journey with Lungpacer began with the heartbreaking experience of his 14-year-old son's struggle with mechanical ventilation during his cancer battle. After losing his son, Doug committed himself to solving the clinical challenges that affect millions of critically ill patients who depend on mechanical ventilation to survive. His determination has led to the development of revolutionary neurostimulation technology that works "like lifting weights to build strength" for patients' diaphragms while they remain on mechanical ventilation. This breakthrough approach addresses ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction, a major barrier to patient recovery that contributes to the staggering mortality rates in intensive care units. Doug's personal mission drives Lungpacer's vision: to free patients from prolonged mechanical ventilation and preserve their overall health during critical illness.BeforeLungpacer, Doug's career has spanned leadership roles across...

Brett has been an RN since 2007 and became an Acute Care Nurse Practitioner in 2011. Both degrees are from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. Most of his career has been in Critical Care, covering Intensive Care Units, both in person and by telemedicine. Over time, Brett noticed his patients, largely, were in a managed decline by their providers and their laundry lists of medication. He began to question the legitimacy of his chosen specialty. In 2024, Brett transitioned to the opposite end of the spectrum and started working with patients on diet and lifestyle to give them a better opportunity to avoid hospitalization.

Send us a textWhat drives a 14-year-old girl watching her father in critical care to become a healthcare leader? For Lisa Coleman, Director of Critical Care at Jackson Memorial Hospital, it was witnessing blood on her father's pillow go unattended—a moment that crystallized her commitment to compassionate, thorough patient care.Twenty-three years into her nursing career and twelve years in leadership, Coleman's journey reveals the remarkable path from bedside nurse to healthcare executive. Her leadership during COVID-19 showcased her ability to implement innovative protocols while fostering team resilience amid constantly changing guidelines and critical staffing shortages. Rather than crumbling under pressure, she discovered her capacity to balance operational demands with emotional support for her team.Coleman's leadership philosophy—"less noise, more voice"—perfectly captures her approach to creating environments where every team member feels heard while maintaining laser focus on patient outcomes. She doesn't need to be the loudest voice in the room to make an impact. Instead, she creates psychological safety that encourages innovation while driving accountability. This balanced approach has positioned her to perform at the chief nursing officer level, something she realized through brand development work that helped her recognize her executive capabilities.Mentorship forms the cornerstone of Coleman's leadership legacy. From mentoring a struggling nurse who eventually became an advanced nurse practitioner to developing a formal mentorship program at Jackson, she's committed to building the next generation of healthcare leaders. Her advice to aspiring healthcare professionals comes from hard-earned wisdom: approach this field with passion and purpose, not just for financial gain, because you're responsible for human lives.Ready to elevate your leadership journey?
