Episode 40– Noise Fear and Phobias – What you need to know!   Did you know that up to 50% of our pet dogs suffer from noise sensitivity, fear of noises or even noise phobias? That is a HUGE amount and most of them go undiagnosed and untreated. And that means that many of our pets suffer, either on a daily basis or during specific noise events such as fireworks and thunderstorms. Cats are likely also affected by noises, but because they tend to hide in these circumstances, pet caregivers might not notice this, and they are even less likely to get the help they might need.   In this episode, Dr Katrin chats about: ·         The different diagnoses when it comes to noises - is it a phobia, fear or sensitivity? ·         The signs your dog might show if they are fearful of noises ·         Why household electrical appliances are important ·         How dogs hear differently from humans and what that means for them ·         How we can manage the environment to help ·         Counter-conditioning to noises ·         Supplements, pheromones and medications   Here are some of the papers Dr Katrin mentioned in this episode: 1.      An open-label prospective study of the use of l-theanine (Anxitane) in storm-sensitive client-owned dogs, Amy L. Pike, Debra F. Horwitz, Heidi Lobprise, JVB, 2015, Vol 10:4, pp324-331, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jveb.2015.04.001 2.      Dexmedetomidine oromucosal gel for noise associated acute anxiety and fear in dogs—a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study, Vet Record, 2017, M.

Emergency Medical Minute

Contributor: Travis Barlock MD Educational Pearls: Common sedatives used in the Emergency Department and a few pearls for each. Propofol Type: Non-barbiturate sedative hypnotic agonizing GABA receptors. Benefit: Quick on and quick off (duration of action is approximately 2-7 minutes), helpful for suspected neurologic injury so the patient can wake up and be re-evaluated. Also has the benefit of reducing intracranial pressure (ICP). Downsides: Hypotension, bradycardia, respiratory depression. What should you do if a patient is getting hypotensive on propofol? Do not stop the propofol. Start pressors. May have to reduce the propofol dose if delay in pressors. Dexmedetomidine (Precedex) Type: Alpha 2 agonist - causes central sedation Uses: Patients are more alert and responsive and therefore can be on BiPAP instead of being intubated. Does not cause respiratory depression. Downsides: Hypotension and Bradycardia. Caution in using this for head injuries, its side effects can mask the Cushing reflex and make it more difficult to spot acute elevations in ICP and uncal herniation. Ketamine Type: NMDA antagonist and dissociative anesthetic, among other mechanisms. Benefits: Quick Onset (but slower than propofol). Does not cause hypotension, but can even increase HR and BP (Thought to potentially cause hypotension if patient is catecholamine-depleted (ie. sepsis, delayed trauma)). Dosing ketamine can be challenging. Typically low doses (0.1-0.3mg/kg (max ~30mg)) can give good pain relief. Higher doses (for intubation/procedural sedation) are generally thought to have a higher risk of dissociation. Downsides: Emergence reactions which include hallucinations, vivid dreams, and agitation. Increased secretions. Benzos Type: GABA agonists. Benefits: Seizure, alcohol withdrawal, agitation due to toxic overdoses.  Push doses are useful because doses can stack. Longer half-life than propofol.   Downsides: Respiratory depression. Longer half-life can make neuro assessments difficult to complete. Etomidate MOA: Displaces endogenous GABA inhibitors. Useful as a one-time dose for quick procedures (cardioversion, intubation). Often drug of choice for intubation since it is thought to have no hemodynamic effects.  Downsides; If used without paralytic - myoclonus. Though to have some adrenal suppression. Fentanyl Type: Opioid analgesic. Not traditional sedative. Benefits: There are many instances in emergency medicine in which sedation can be avoided by prioritizing proper analgesia. Fentanyl can even be used to maintain intubated patients without needing to keep them constantly sedated. Downsides: Respiratory depression. Patients may have tolerance.

In this first episode of the Society for Pediatric Sedation (SPS) Podcast, we will be discussing the use of intranasal medication in procedural sedation for children. We will be joined by Dr. Carmen Sulton, the Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Emory University School of Medicine and Director of Children Sedation Services at Egleston campus in Atlanta. Dr. Sulton is well published in the field of pediatric procedural sedation including a recent paper on the use of intranasal Dexmedetomidine published in Pediatric Emergency Care in 2020. The paper uses patient outcomes data from the Pediatric Sedation Research Consortium database, the research arm of the Society for Pediatric Sedation.In our case today, we have a five months old infant who requires an MRI of his brain. The patient is an ex-32 week premature infant with a history of difficult IV access. There's no history of upper respiratory tract infection, no snoring, heart disease, or any medication allergy in this infant. The MRI is needed for a focal seizure that occured two weeks ago and the patient doesn't require an IV since this is not a contrasted MRI. Dr. Sulton will generously share with us why intranasal medications are needed in procedural sedation and so much more, so don't miss out if this is a topic of interest for you.Meet your hosts:Pradip Kamat, MD, MBA - Associate Professor of Pediatrics and Critical Care Physician at Emory University School of Medicine and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta/Egleston.Anne Stormorken, MD - Professor of Pediatrics and Critical Care Physician at UH Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital and Case Western Reserve School of Medicine of Cleveland, OH.Show HighlightsDiving into how intranasal medications work (01:58)Circumstances where intranasal medications must not be used for procedural sedation (04:35)How she uses Dexmedetomidine and Midazolam (06:28)Research findings on the success rate with the use of intranasal medications (09:14)Other medications that can be used intranasally for procedural sedation (11:42)Optimizing the efficacy of intranasal medications when delivering them (12:09)Giving IV sedation where there is intranasal medication failure (13:23)Large dataset studies that support the successful use of intranasal medications in procedural sedation (14:23)Additional ResourcesThe Use of Intranasal Dexmedetomidine and Midazolam for Sedated Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Children
