“Colorectal cancer treatment is not just about eliminating a disease. It's about preserving life quality and empowering patients through every phase. So I think nurses are really at the forefront that we can do that in the oncology nursing space. So from early detection to survivorship, the journey is deeply personal. Precision medicine, compassionate care, and informed decision-making are reshaping outcomes. Treatment's just not about protocols. It's about people,” ONS member Kris Mathey, DNP, APRN-CNP, AOCNP®, gastrointestinal medical oncology nurse practitioner at The James Cancer Hospital of The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in Columbus, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about colorectal cancer treatment.  Music Credit: “Fireflies and Stardust” by Kevin MacLeod Licensed under Creative Commons by Attribution 3.0  Earn 1.0 contact hour of nursing continuing professional development (NCPD) by listening to the full recording and completing an evaluation at courses.ons.org by August 1, 2026. The planners and faculty for this episode have no relevant financial relationships with ineligible companies to disclose.

Highlights From This Episode “Colorectal cancer has several different types, but there is one that dominates the landscape, and that is adenocarcinoma. So I think most of us have heard that. It's fairly common, and it accounts for about 95% of all colorectal cancers. It begins in the glandular cells lining the colon or rectum and often develops from polyps, in particular adenomatous polyps.” TS 1:41 “One of the biomarkers that we'll most commonly hear about is KRAS or NRAS mutations. This indicates tumor genetics, and these mutations suggest resistance to our EGFR inhibitors such as cetuximab. BRAF mutation or V600E is a more aggressive tumor subtype, and those may respond to our BRAF targeted therapy. … And then our MSI-high or MMR-deficient—microsatellite instability or mismatch repair deficiency—that really predicts an immunotherapy response and may indicate Lynch syndrome, which is a huge genetic component that takes a whole other level of counseling and genetic testing with our patients as well.” TS 6:02 “Polypectomy or a local excision—that removes our small tumors or polyps during that colonoscopy. And that's what's used for those stage 0 or early stage I cancers. A colectomy removes part or all of the colon. This may be open or laparoscopic. It can include a hemicolectomy, a segmental resection, or a total colectomy, so where you take out the entire part of the colon. A proctectomy removes part or all of the rectum. This may include a low anterior resection, also known as an LAR … or an abdominal perineal resection, which is an APR. … Colostomy or ileostomy—that diverts the stool to an external bag via stoma. Sometimes this is temporary or permanent depending on the type of surgery.” TS 14:11 “We'll have our patients say, ‘Hey, I want immunotherapy therapy. I see commercials on it that it works so well.' We have to make sure that these patients are good candidates for it, also that we're treating them adequately. We need to make sure that they have those biomarkers, so as I mentioned, the MSI-high or MMR tumors. Our MSS-stable tumors—they may benefit from newer combinations or clinical trials. Metastatic disease—immunotherapy may be used alone or with other treatments. And then in the neoadjuvant setting, some trials are really showing promising results using immunotherapy prior to surgery.” TS 25:38 “Antibody-drug conjugates are really an exciting frontier in all cancer treatments as well as colorectal cancer treatment. This is used mainly for patients with advanced or treatment-resistant disease, and these therapies combine the targeted power of monoclonal antibodies with the cell-killing ability of potent chemotherapy agents. They're still on the horizon for the most part in colorectal cancer. However, there is only one approved antibody-drug conjugate, or ADC, at this time, and that's trastuzumab deruxtecan, or Enhertu. That's approved for any solid tumor, such as colorectal cancer with HER2 IHC 3+. So again, looking back at that pathology in those markers, making sure that you have that HER2 mutation and that IHC.” TS 35:00 “There are a few myths going around about colorectal cancer treatment that can lead to confusion or even delayed care. One myth is only older men get colorectal cancer. As you heard me talk in my previous podcast on screening, unfortunately, this isn't necessarily true. Colorectal cancer affects both men and women and our cases in the younger population are rising. So our screening guidelines have changed to age 45 because we are seeing it in the younger population.” TS 45:54

When seconds matter, preparation saves lives. Today's case study involving a 47-year-old man with severe obesity and obstructive sleep apnea is a great example of that. When a routine EGD resulted in rapid hypoxia shortly after sedation after conventional methods failed, it was the McMurray Enhanced Airway that made all the difference. Sharon shares the experience in this episode and we invited Roxanne McMurray, DNP, CRNA, APRN, FAANA back to the show to talk about how this novel airway tool is changing the game for CRNAs. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:

What does it take to optimize for longevity—not just testosterone? In this episode of the TRT & Hormone Optimization channel, Dr. Steven Devos interviews Anna Griffith, DNP, from Victory Men's Health, for a deep dive into hormone optimization through the lens of longevity and performance. They discuss how TRT protocols differ by age, when to layer in additional hormones like DHEA, melatonin, or thyroid support, and why individualized care is essential for results. Anna breaks down how regenerative therapies like wave therapy and PRP can dramatically improve sexual performance, the role of NAC and creatine in optimization, and how GLP-1s can safely pair with TRT when weight loss is a goal.

Burnout and stress are prevalent among healthcare providers, including nursing staff. Burnout among nurses can lead to decreased productivity, increased errors, and higher rates of absenteeism. It can also be costly for hospitals and healthcare systems to replace nurses who decide to leave due to stress. One system experimenting with novel ways to support its nursing staff is BayCare Health System in Tampa, Florida. It was one of four systems in the country chosen by the American Nurses Foundation to pilot a nurse wellbeing program that borrowed a stress program originally developed for high-stress roles, like those in the military. On today's episode of the Gist Healthcare podcast, host J. Carlisle Larsen is joined by Trish Shucoski, DNP, MSN, RN, NEA-BC, chief nurse executive at BayCare.

“The proteasome itself, it really helps us unfold or get rid of misfolded proteins or degradations of different cells. We used to have garbage disposals in our sinks, and we used to put food product in there. If your garbage disposal is clogged, then everything backs up. So that's kind of what's really going on in the cell itself, is that I'm building up these unnecessary proteins that we should be getting rid of, and it actually causes apoptosis or cell death,” ONS member Daniel Verina, DNP, RN, ACNP-BC, nurse practitioner for the multiple myeloma program at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York, NY, told Lenise Taylor, MN, RN, AOCNS®, BMTCN®, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, during a conversation about the proteasome inhibitor drug class.

Highlights From This Episode “When we look at the administration, we also want to make sure that we're looking at the blood counts, right? Because proteasome inhibitors are well known for causing thrombocytopenia and neutropenia. So making sure that the patients do meet eligibility for the treatment for that day, and do they have anemia or lower red blood cell counts. You want to make sure that, because of these therapies, that the patient has no symptoms or infections going into each therapy for that day.” TS 10:19 “[Bortezomib], interesting enough, it can cause hypotension, cardiac failure, and sometimes pulmonary edema. Switching that up a little bit, what makes it slightly different, carfilzomib … a lot of times we saw, even in the clinical trial, that there was a lot of hypertension or cardiomyopathies, or arrythmias that we saw with carfilzomib and different dosages that they have indicated from the FDA. So again, monitoring the hypertension … or heart failure.” TS 15:16 “We also want to keep in mind another adverse effect, and especially in myeloma—our patients come in the door already immunocompromised just by the disease state alone. But now I'm giving them therapies that can drop their neutrophil count, so neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, so they are at a higher risk of having serious infections, even including like pneumonia or having outbreaks of herpes zoster or shingles.” TS 16:50 “If the patient has shortness of breath or symptoms, hold the therapy. I think that's one of my biggest messages when it comes to cancer treatments and educating other healthcare providers, or even educating our patients and their caregivers or the care partners with them, is that we need to sometimes hold the therapy for safety.” TS 22:02 “I say keep a log, keep a book. Let me know when the symptoms happen. Are they happening the day of treatment? Are they happening two days later from the treatment? Are they happening a week later from the treatment? And being able to kind of guide which therapy is causing some of these adverse events or side effects alone. So, making them have calendars. When did you take the drug, when did you get your last infusion or your last [subcutaneous] injection? Always talk to your care team, whether it's in the academic center or next to your house in the community.” TS 26:17 “It's us learning how to listen to the patient going forward. We have tasks to do—we all have tasks to do in our lives—but we have to take a breath, be mindful who's in front of us, listen to them first, and then be able to talk to them and care for them upfront and see what the symptoms are. I think that's what we need to do. We have to take a breath in cancer.” TS 39:35

On this episode of the Legal Nurse Podcast, host Pat Iyer delves into the high-stakes world of pediatric emergency care with expert guest Dr. Chelsea Collins, a seasoned emergency department and forensic nurse. Together, they shine a spotlight on the unique vulnerabilities and challenges faced by pediatric patients—and the medical teams who care for them—in the fast-paced ER environment. Dr. Collins draws on her extensive experience to expose the complexities behind assigning responsibility, the differences in assessment techniques between inpatient and emergency settings, and the realities of working in a team under constantly shifting conditions. Listeners will gain critical insight into the most serious emergencies involving children, from respiratory crises to life-threatening fevers, and learn why children are not just "little adults" when it comes to dosages and treatment protocols. Dr. Collins explains essentials like weight-based dosing, the lifesaving role of Broselow tape, and how ER staff navigate situations when time won't allow for careful measurement—a crucial look into the behind-the-scenes decisions that can mean life or death. The episode also focuses on vital legal considerations such as EMTALA (the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act) and the nuances of handling pregnant pediatric patients, revealing just how intricate and specialized pediatric emergency care has become. This episode promises an eye-opening look into cases where every detail—and every second—matters. What you'll learn in this episode on Pediatric ER Nursing Watch this on our LegalNurseBusiness channel on YouTube for the full experience. How does the team dynamic and patient assignment work in a constantly changing emergency department, especially during critical situations with pediatric patients? What types of assessments are performed on pediatric patients in the emergency department, and how do they differ from inpatient head-to-toe assessments? Which pediatric emergencies raise the most concern among emergency department staff, and why are respiratory issues particularly critical in children? How are medication dosages accurately determined for pediatric patients in urgent or high-pressure situations, and what tools are used to support this process? What legal and practical protocols, such as EMTALA, ensure the stabilization and appropriate transfer of patients—particularly vulnerable or uninsured children and pregnant teenagers—in emergency departments?

Episode 80: Balancing Relief and Risk: Pain Management and Opioid Prescribing in Children and Adolescents   Evaluation and Credit:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/medchat80 Target Audience             This activity is targeted toward primary care physicians and advanced providers. Statement of Need This podcast will address effective pain management in adolescents and teens and the utilization of opioids and risk reduction. Pediatricians may not have up-to-date knowledge and skills to effectively balance pain management with opioid safety in children and adolescents. Current practice often reflects underuse of multimodal pain strategies, inconsistent application of opioid prescribing guidelines, and limited screening for substance use disorders (SUDs) in youth. This educational activity addresses the gap between current and optimal practice by enhancing pediatricians' competence in evidence-based opioid prescribing and their performance in implementing risk mitigation strategies in clinical settings. Objectives Describe evidence-based guidelines for prescribing opioids in a manner that optimizes both pain treatment and safety for children and adolescents (“youth”). Discuss evidence-based strategies for the prevention, screening, and treatment for substance use disorders in youth.

“We want to make sure that nurses, have opportunities both in our local communities as well as international communities, to engage in courageous dialog with others who may think or look different than we do and whose culture or language may also be different. The difference is what brings us together and allows us to have more of this tapestry of what we are about—ensuring that we advance health for all and that we are able to move forward together,” ONS member Ashley Leak-Bryant, PhD, RN, OCN®, professor at University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill, told Darcy Burbage, DNP, RN, AOCN®, CBCN®, chair of the ONS 50th Anniversary Committee, during a conversation about international collaboration in oncology nursing. Burbage spoke with Leak-Bryant, ONS member Kristin Ferguson, DNP, MBA, RN, OCN®, senior director of strategic operations, bone marrow transplant, and cellular therapies at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital, and ONS member and Chief Clinical Officer Erica Fischer-Cartlidge, DNP, RN, AOCNS®, EBP-C, about their experiences working in the global oncology space and how ONS is advancing those efforts.

This was when I was in nursing school at UNC Greensboro. An opportunity came about where I had a chance to go to Honduras, and it was for a one-week service learning cultural immersion experience. And that really gave me my first entree into global health as well as global training. And so, as a first-generation college graduate who had never been out of North Carolina nor had ever flown, it was really an eye-opening experience that has led me now to my current role and passion for global health.” TS 3:24 Leak-Bryant: “In 2018, we had the Malawian delegation come to UNC Chapel Hill. University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has one of the longest standing collaborations with Malawi, and we call it UNC Project Malawi, and it has been in existence for more than 30 years. … Those nurses and other allied health professionals came to UNC to our cancer center to see how we were making sure that we were engaged in best practices, then how they would be able to take that back to Malawi to make sure that they have what they need as they were opening up a new national cancer Center in Malawi.” TS 7:57 Ferguson: “I have volunteered with ONS at the Asian Pacific Breast Cancer Summit, which was in Indonesia in 2024, and then a few months ago in Singapore. And this is an exciting conference because it draws in nurses from the region, so you end up having five, six, maybe seven countries represented at these conferences, where oncology nurses are very eager to learn, meet one another. And so the teaching that we've provided there has been a combination of lectures and then roundtables where we've strategically placed nurses attending with nurses that are not at their same hospital so that they can connect and share experiences with myself and another ONS member and maybe some other local staff acting as moderators and facilitating conversations.” TS 18:04 Ferguson: “When I was in Tbilisi, Georgia, in 2019, the people there, most of them do not speak English, so they speak their native language Georgian. As I presented, I was wearing a headset, and all of the oncology nurses in the audience were wearing a headset, and I was live translated. What this means is when you're speaking, a translator is sitting in a booth close by and you can actually very quietly hear in your ear he or she quietly translating what you're saying into a language that the nurses can understand. It's actually a bit funny because when you make a joke or ask a question, expecting nods or head shakes, it takes several seconds for the translation to occur. You can get used to a 10-second delay, and you have to pause your speaking and allow actually a little bit more time in presenting if translation services are required.” TS 22:25 Fischer-Cartlidge: “I think that the professional organization role is absolutely critical in how we advance global oncology. Certainly, providing education and helping empower nurses to be more autonomous and equal partners on the care team is a big piece of that. But it's also through forming international partnerships and really elevating the collective voice of nurses in the specialty. This goes a long way in standardizing practices, promoted leadership development among oncology nurses, really across the world. We know that nurses are not seen the same country to country to country on the healthcare team. And so a big part of what we do is try to elevate the importance of what nurses bring to cancer care.” TS 36:14 Fischer-Cartlidge: “I have so many hopes. I hope more opportunities come up for us to raise awareness of this essential role and how we bring a greater spotlight to what nurses are doing across the world for patient care. I hope to see us have more collective global position statements in this space. I hope to see that we have more unified projects across nursing organizations across the world, where we then really can bring our resources and our members together to do great work more effectively and more efficiently. And I think the beginnings of that are happening right up to this point.” TS 41:17

Our guests— Richard Pullen, EdD, RN and Virginia Holter, DNP, APRN, FNP-BC—join us to clear up the confusion around PSA testing, the role of digital rectal exams, and how new imaging technologies are changing the way we detect prostate cancer. We explore the risk factors that matter most, from age and race to genetic mutations such as BRCA1 and 2, obesity, and even environmental exposures. You'll also hear about the complex decisions patients and physicians face together—from whether or not to get screened, to navigating treatment options such as active surveillance, prostatectomy, or high-intensity focused ultrasound ablation. Importantly, we tackle some often-overlooked topics, including impacts on sexual function and prostate cancer in transgender women. If you're over 40, have a loved one at risk, or just want to understand the science and policy behind one of the most common cancers in men—this episode is a must-listen.

“The five-year relative survival rate for localized, or cancer that is confined to the colon or the rectum, is 91% for colon cancer and 90% for rectal cancer. Distant, metastasized to other organs—the five-year survival rate is 13% for colon and 18% for rectal cancer. So that really shows you the huge difference in screening and where screening can come in and make better outcomes,” ONS member Kris Mathey, DNP, APRN-CNP, AOCNP®, gastrointestinal medical oncology nurse practitioner at The James Cancer Hospital of The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about colorectal cancer screening.

Highlights From This Episode “Interestingly, recent studies suggest that starting screening even earlier than 45, such as age 40, could significantly reduce mortality and incidence rates, especially as colorectal cancer is rising among younger adults.” TS 2:42 “[Artificial intelligence]-enhanced screening tools are also being developed to improve sensitivity, reduce turnaround time, and enable real-time monitoring of disease progression. These innovations aim to make screening more accessible and accurate, especially in our underserved populations. So there's a huge impact on early detection.” TS 4:07 “Those with multiple chronic conditions or limited mobility may be less likely to complete screening, and those results may be harder to interpret. I mentioned a little bit earlier about our underserved or minority populations. Those barriers such as limited health literacy, lack of insurance, and cultural stigma can reduce screening uptake and ultimately follow-through.” TS 12:25 “Patient navigation programs—this is where we have trained navigators to help patients schedule appointments, understand procedures, and ultimately overcome some of these logistical hurdles. These have actually been shown to significantly boost screening rates. Also, those mailed stool-based-test kits—sending those kits directly to a patient home, especially with a personalized letter from a provider to add that extra little touch, has proven effective in increasing participation.” TS 21:29 “Our screening can detect cancer before symptoms appear and even identify precancerous polyps, which can be removed to prevent cancer altogether. Studies actually show that regular screening can reduce colorectal cancer mortality by up to 35% and the incidence of advanced-stage disease by nearly 30%. Just another reason why screening really does matter.” TS 25:53 “Evaluating our implicit bias, especially in something as critical as colorectal cancer, requires both introspection and instructional supports. One way of doing this is by auditing your practice patterns, really looking at reviewing your own screening recommendations and follow-up rates across different patient demographics. So are there certain groups that are less likely to be offered a colonoscopy? I think some of us may have an implicit bias—you see a patient; you're like, ‘There's no way they're going to agree to that, so I'm just not going to offer it.' Where we don't offer it, they don't have that opportunity to decline that. That can lead to further delay. And those patterns can reveal a bias in action.” TS 28:18

Send us a textWell, the long-awaited summer series Research 101 is finally here. I know you have heard me talking about it quite frequently. I just had to schedule some time with my guest, Chris Patty and once we sat down it flowed very nicely. Let me just bring you up to speed on Chris. You may remember that Chris was my guest for the 4th episode of this podcast and for the 100th episode he turned the tables and interviewed me and it's always a pleasure sitting down with Chris. But way back in the early 80's, he started his career as a surgical technician and quickly discovered he didn't want to work that hard, so he became an OR nurse. In the 40 years in between, he's become a doctorally-prepared nurse leader in clinical, quality improvement, research, and education and is living his best life.You may find this hard to believe but Chris did not need a single PowerPoint slide, he had no script, just a couple of notes scribbled on his paper because as you will find out he knows this topic like the back of his hand.This is part one of three in the series and for part one, we started with some history of research, he plainly and succinctly defined research, told us where we can find nursing literature, and shamelessly admitted that nursing research needs an overhaul. But, I think one of the most inspiring things that Chris said is that any nurse at any level can do research. Now, you hear the topic of chat GPT come up frequently during our conversation because as Chris tells us he is an evangelist for Chat GPT. We will save that for another episode. For now,  let's dive into Research 101 Part One.  Be sure to check out my CE Library on RNegade.pro because, good news, this series is available for CE'S. Farmworker studyHierarchy of EvidenceEP #4 Nurse Researcher, Dr. Chris Patty Available for CE's!EP #100 Interview of Michelle Harris by Dr. Chris Patty Available for CE's!Contact The Conversing Nurse podcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theconversingnursepodcast/Website: https://theconversingnursepodcast.comYour review is so important to this Indie podcaster!

Botox Is NOT Anti-Aging? Here's What It Really Does…In this episode, Dr. Kristen breaks down the common misconception that Botox is an anti-aging treatment. Spoiler: it's not. Botox is preventative, not restorative. You'll learn how Botox works, what types of lines it treats (dynamic vs static), and when it's the right time to start. Plus, she covers who shouldn't get Botox, the truth behind “Botox in a bottle” trends, and what treatments actually are anti-aging—like microneedling, lasers, and Sculptra.Botox Study - https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/10.1001/archfaci.8.6.426Timestamps00:46 Botox Isn't Anti-Aging01:13 What Is Anti-Aging01:49 How Botox Works in the Body03:01 Why Botox Is Preventative03:25 Dynamic vs Static Wrinkles04:33 When Should You Start Botox05:13 Botox Isn't for Everyone06:54 Smart Botox Alternatives07:24 “Botox” Means All Neuromodulators07:47 Botox Myths Face Taping & Serums09:00 Is Botox Toxic09:45 Real Anti-Aging Treatments10:22 Twin Study Botox vs No Botox10:50 Tips for Injectors11:00 Final Thoughts & Sign-OffDon't forget to follow Dr. Herzog on Instagram @the_perfectdose for more skincare tips!--------------

What happens when a full-time ICU nurse, deep in burnout, poor sleep, and feeling uncomfortable in his own body… decides enough is enough? In this powerful episode of the Breakthrough Series, we sit down with Nathaniel—a DNP in progress, critical care nurse, and now fitness success story. After gaining weight during the pandemic and feeling stuck in the cycle of exhaustion, Nathaniel joined our Metabolic Burn System and committed to a new standard for his health. What followed? → 15 lbs of fat gone. → Energy rebuilt. → Chronic back pain reduced. → And a 5K finish—without training. This isn't just about weight loss. It's about learning self-leadership, building habits that stick through life transitions (including moving states and working long shifts), and breaking free from the perfectionist mindset that keeps so many nurses from ever starting. Nathaniel shares: How he overcame inconsistency and self-doubt Why 80/20 nutrition helped him stop bingeing and enjoy food again How journaling, community, and small shifts created big wins And what he'd tell any nurse stuck in the “all or nothing” mindset
