Hey friends! In this episode, I'm joined by the amazing Dr. Heather Quaile, DNP, as we dive into all things ISSWSH — that's short for the International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health (try saying that five times fast). We talk about how this incredible organization has exploded in size and why that matters for women everywhere. We get into the power of staying curious in sexual medicine, why funding research is still such a grind, and how hormones — yes, especially testosterone — play a huge role in sexual function. Heather and I also share some of our favorite takeaways from recent ISSWSH conferences, like new ways of looking at orgasm and sexual dysfunction that actually make sense. We don't shy away from the hard stuff either — off-label meds, outdated guidelines, and the frustrating lack of clarity around hormone therapy. But more than anything, this convo is about how we, as healthcare professionals, need to collaborate and push for change that reflects real women's needs. If you're curious about the future of female sexual medicine or just want to hear two clinicians geek out over the latest research, this episode is for you.

Learn the terms healthcare teams use after cancer treatment is complete, and why they hesitate to use the word "cured."  https://bit.ly/3FfnfUxAdvances in cancer diagnosis, screening, and treatment have greatly improved the 5-year survival rates of most people with cancer over the last 30 years. Long-term survivors of cancer are more and more common, and research is increasingly directed at helping people live well after a diagnosis of cancer. But even so, many oncologists still hesitate to use the word “cure” with their patients. We talk with Dr. Jeanne Ford about the difference between the terms No Evidence of Disease (NED), remission, cure, and cancer free.In this Episode: 03:11 | Travel-Vermont and Vermont Chicken Pot Pie04:25 | The Trouble with Using the Phrase "Cancer Free"10:20 | Why We Don't Say Cancer is Cured12:00 | How Dr Ford Explains NED to Her Patients19:17 | What Does "Cure" Really Mean?29:38  | How Do Native Communities Treat the Concept of a Cancer Cure32:51 | The Role of Hope and How to Deliver Honest Information37:28 | Addressing Fear of Recurrence and Uncertainty about Future44:13 | Cancer Survivorship and Surveillance46:03 | Outro#survivor #cancersurvivor #cancerfree #remisssion #NED #cancercured #treatmentfinished #survivorship #oncologynurse #caregiver #palliativecare #everyonedies #everydayisagift #cancerjourneySupport the showGet show notes and resources at our website: every1dies.org.

“The signaling and that binding of the MET and the HGF help, in a downstream way, lead to cell proliferation, cell motility, survival, angiogenesis, and also invasion—so all of those key cancer hallmarks. And because of it being on an epithelial cell, it's a really good marker because it's found in many, many different types of cancers, so it makes it what we call kind of a nice actionable mutation,” ONS member Marianne Davies, DNP, ACNP, AOCNP®, FAAN, senior oncology nurse practitioner at Yale Comprehensive Cancer Center in New Haven, CT, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about the MET inhibitor drug class.

And it was actually identified as an oncogene in osteosarcoma. And so basically what that MET receptor does—it's a tyrosine kinase pathway, and the ligand that it attaches to is something called HGF/SF. That's hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor. And so this MET pathway tyrosine kinase pathway is really important in tumor cell growth and migration. And it's expressed specifically on epithelial cells, so that's going to really help us in identifying how it can be a pathway for cancer treatments.” TS 1:35 “But in the particular classes, there kind of are some unique things that are with these MET inhibitors. For example, crizotinib, we found early on, causes some vision changes. Patients would report things like floaters or a little bit of blurry vision. For the capmatinib, things like elevation of amylase and lipase, fluid retention and bloating, and hypersensitivity reactions and photosensitivity.” TS 7:36 “Other things to teach for the TKI is the self-management strategies in terms of nausea management and dietary changes for the risk of peripheral edema. Having them do things like maybe doing daily weights, or at least weights every other day, and sometimes doing limb measurements so it can help us really quantify the amount of fluid retention they have. And then from a nursing perspective, meeting with these patients, is to do really good skin inspection. When people have peripheral edema, they're at risk for skin breakdown, and that can lead obviously to infection.” TS 16:06 “The biggest [misconception] is that people assume that all MET mutations are going to be equally responsive to the same targeted therapies, that all of the abnormalities are the same and react the same, and they really don't. We're really diving down and carving that pie thinner and thinner in terms of each individual MET abnormality, in terms of what drugs responds it to and what that means for patient outcomes and prognosis.” TS 25:21

Placenta accreta is one of the most dangerous and rapidly growing challenges in obstetrics, and CRNAs are often on the front lines when things go wrong. This week we're joined by OB anesthesia specialists Kira Bruck, CRNA and Kelsey Getzloff, DNP, CRNA to share the latest research, discuss the reasons behind the increase in cases, and outline essential anesthesia strategies for managing high-risk deliveries.

On this compelling episode of NP Pulse: The Voice of the Nurse Practitioner®, Dr. Jessica Peck, DNP, APRN, CPNP-PC, CNE, CNL, FAANP, FAAN, and guest Dr. Ashley Hodges, PhD, CRNP, WHNP-BC, PMHNP-BC, FAANP, FAAN, dive deep into the adolescent mental health crisis, shedding light on the alarming trends affecting today's youth. From the long-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic to the pressure of growing up in a hyper-connected digital world, this discussion explores critical risk factors, early warning signs and practical strategies for nurse practitioners (NPs) and families alike. This episode also emphasizes the importance of upstream prevention, holistic care, reducing stigma and integrating mental health support into primary care. Drawing from decades of clinical experience, Jessica and Ashley offer compassionate, expert insight on how to recognize and respond to adolescent mental health challenges, while highlighting resources, screenings and training opportunities for NPs committed to making a difference.

In this episode of The Nurse Practitioner Podcast, Julia Rogers, DNP, APRN, CNS, FNP-BC, FAANP and Stephen Ferrara, DNP, FNP, FAANP, FAAN discuss AI and NP practice.

In celebration of Nurses Month, in this episode, recently retired Chief Nursing Officer AnnMarie Papa, DNP, RN, CEN, NE-BC, FAEN, FAAN discusses how nurse leaders can mitigate critical issues facing nurses today, such as burnout, staffing shortages, workplace violence, and a lack of meaningful support. Supporting nurses with compassion is essential to the future of the profession. Rather than placing the burden of resilience on nurses, she advocates for nurse leaders to be authentic, present, and empathetic, asking staff what they truly need. Strong leadership involves humility, mutual elevation between staff and leaders, and tailored approaches that consider generational differences in learning and work preferences. AnnMarie also notes the need for systemic changes including violence prevention through risk assessment and legislation, trauma-informed care, and improved incident reporting processes. She encourages nurses to get involved in policy advocacy and to use storytelling—drawing from their own impactful patient experiences—as a powerful tool to influence change and affirm their purpose.

Feeling ragey, sweaty, or like you're losing your mind and your keys every other day? Surprise! It might not be your coffee intake—it could be perimenopause. In this episode, we're joined by Elizabeth Shrader, DNP, MSN—a Nurse Practitioner and the founder and sole provider at Bella Vita Integrated Healing—who spills the hormone tea (spoiler: it's not all in your head). We dig into why hormone replacement is not the villain it's been made out to be, how women's health has been hilariously underfunded, and why mood swings and middle-of-the-night hot flash parties are not something you just have to “deal with.” Basically, if your body's been acting like a drama queen and your doctor just shrugs, this is your permission slip to say, “Nope, not today, Satan (or estrogen).” Resources We Shared: Learn more about integrated health and Elizabeth here Get our Stop Doing Checklist absolutely FREE, so you can start taking tasks off your plate today!

“We spent time today discussing all the ways that owners can have a positive impact on career growth, whether you're a bedside nurse or just in teaching, research, hospital leadership. More than career growth, I see ONS as kind of a barrier to burnout and a catalyst for professional self-care. I think that no matter what aspect of oncology care you're involved in, it is a difficult and complex specialty. And I think with that can come a lot of challenges and tough days, and ONS brings a sense of community to that and, specifically, a community that is pushing cancer care forward,” ONS member Amy Kaiser, MSN, CPNP-PC, told Nick Escobedo, DNP, RN, OCN®, NE-BC, member of the ONS 50th anniversary committee, during a conversation about the benefits of ONS membership. Escobedo spoke with Kaiser, who joined ONS as a student, and Susan Groenwald, PhD, RN, ANEF, FAAN, a charter ONS member, about how ONS membership and resources have helped them grow in their careers.

The area that sticks out to me was, I was the board liaison to the standards committee. And so, the development of oncology nursing standards, it was a hallmark and critical to the field and to me and my practice, as well as education. It was very exciting time.” TS 4:18 Kaiser: “I think that my very first introduction to cancer care came from the Cancer Basics course. I think I feel fortunate that I probably was the recipient of a lot of the efforts of Susan, who has pioneered so many of these different oncology resources. I had the benefit of being at school during a time where there were a ton of resources available through ONS.” TS 5:38 Groenwald: “Having attended the meetings and getting involved in some of the committees is where I met people and worked with people. And that became, for me, very vital for doing a book, where it was a contributed book, an edited book [Cancer Nursing: Principles and Practice], so we had lots of different chapters and contributors, but I met them all through ONS. And how we communicated was via the old-fashioned mail and telephone. I didn't even have a computer. We typed the whole manuscript, thousands and thousands of pages, the first couple editions.” TS 12:25 Kaiser: “What's so wonderful about going to [Congress] is everybody there is looking to move oncology nursing forward and meet people and connect and network. And it's this, you know, magical space of people who are meeting and sharing shared experiences, and I got to feel all of that prior to even being an oncology nurse. And I went home from that first conference, immediately discussed with my manager that I wanted to move to the oncology floor, and I did. But it was meeting all of those people and hearing about those career paths that did that for me.” TS 16:42 Kaiser: “I think people who are involved with ONS, I found, are also very, very willing to mentor. I was very fortunate as I was speaking to these people, not even being an oncology nurse, that they were so welcoming and wanted to welcome me into the specialty and wanted to show me how to get involved. So I think it's just taking that very first step of talking to somebody or going to that local chapter meeting, and then the rest of it becomes a lot easier.” TS 19:29 Groenwald: “One thing Amy mentioned that I think is important is that new nurses have so many opportunities. I think it's scary to put forth an abstract to speak at the conference. It's scary, but it's such a great opportunity for anybody at any level in their career. If they have something of interest to share, it's such a great place. I feel like it launched my career in terms of being able to speak in front of people and think critically about things and put together some projects. This all came from my work with ONS.” TS 20:51

Welcome to the Choosing Wisely Campaign series! This 6-part series will explore the ABIM Foundation's Choosing Wisely Campaign, its historical precedent, and its goals. We will discuss how this initiative aims to promote conversations between clinicians and patients to avoid unnecessary medical tests, treatments, and procedures. The introduction episode dives into the historic 2010 editorial in the New England Journal of Medicine that inspired over 80 professional societies to write their “Top 5 Lists” of tests and procedures that could be avoided in evidence-based care. To better understand the problem, we then pick apart the survey that provided insight into why we over order and the harm it causes to vulnerable populations.  In the coming episodes, we'll explore the pediatric lists and apply our knowledge to cases of common presentations seen in primary and acute care pediatrics.  Author: Becky Carson, DNP, APRN, CPNP-PC/AC www.thepedsnp.com Instagram: @thepedsnppodcast Series Learning Objectives: Introduction to the Choosing Wisely Campaign: Understand the origins, historical precedent, and primary goals of the campaign. Case-Based Applications: Explore five common presentations in primary and acute care pediatrics, applying concepts from various Choosing Wisely lists to guide management and resource stewardship.
