In this episode I dive into something most sparkies ignore until it bites them halfway through their business — trademarks, business names, and why ripping off big-brand logos or choosing a name without doing your homework can destroy your company overnight. I share real examples, mistakes I've seen (and nearly made myself), how to check if a name is safe, why trademarking is actually cheap, and how protecting your brand now can save your entire business later.

Join host and Digital Education Committee Member Sandeep A Saha, MD, MS, FHRS for this lively discussion with his colleagues Charles A. Henrikson, MD, MPH, FHRS and Arun R. Mahankali Sridhar, MBBS, MPH, FACC. About this Article: In patients with symptomatic premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) refractory to medical therapy, non-invasive low-level tragus stimulation of the auricular branch of the vagus nerve significantly reduced median PVC burden compared to sham stimulation (median reduction ~13.4% vs ~8.6%; P = 0.021). The findings suggest that autonomic neuromodulation via transcutaneous vagal stimulation may offer a novel adjunctive therapy for frequent PVCs, although further larger trials are needed to evaluate long-term outcomes. Learning Objectives Describe the rationale and mechanism by which transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) may modulate autonomic tone and reduce premature ventricular contractions. Summarize the design, methods, and key outcomes of the NoVa-PVC randomized crossover trial evaluating tVNS for symptomatic PVC reduction. Evaluate the clinical implications, limitations, and potential future applications of noninvasive neuromodulation as a therapeutic approach for ventricular arrhythmias.

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech Training and Pico TechnologyWatch Full Video EpisodeMatt Fanslow opens with “Resistance is futile” and tackles a common belief: “Resistance always makes current go down.” He walks through why that's mostly—but not always—true, and shows how electric motors (especially starters) can draw more current when unwanted resistance slows them down by reducing counter-EMF. Along the way he ties Ohm's Law to real diagnostics, shares a Rust Belt cable-smoker story, and closes with a heartfelt reminder about seeking help for the “stuff” we all carry.Key TopicsThe “always/never” trap in electrical claimsOhm's Law in real life: fixed voltage vs. changing conditionsWhy motors misbehave: counter-EMF as dynamic “resistance”Starter example: inrush current, RPM drop → current riseHigh-resistance cables that increase current (and make heat)Where the energy goes: heat in brushes/cables vs. mechanical workInstantaneous truth of Ohm's Law: accurate at a moment in time, not across changing dynamicsPractical tell-tales: slow crank + rising amps + hot/smoking cablesMental health note: removing stigma and getting professional helpPractical TakeawaysMotors are dynamic loads. If RPM drops (binding, poor supply, worn pump), counter-EMF falls and current can increase even as “resistance in the circuit” rises.Heat = the clue. Elevated current with slow rotation often means energy's being dumped as heat (cables glowing, insulation softening, brushes cooking).Measure what matters. Combine voltage drop, current measurement, and temperature/thermal observation under load to find where the power is going.Interpret Ohm's Law correctly. It holds at an instant; across changing conditions, re-evaluate with the values at that moment.Case Study HighlightChevy Suburban (late '80s/early '90s): Slow crank, ~400 A draw when ~150 A expected; braided negative cable glows red under a 10–20 s crank. Root cause: high-resistance path + reduced counter-EMF → higher current and wasted power as heat.Tools & Concepts MentionedCurrent probe / ammeterVoltage drop testingStarter relative compression patternsCounter-EMF (a.k.a. back-EMF)Old-school VAT-style analyzer (Snap-on digital variant)Quotes / Moments“It's rare we can say always or never.”“Ohm's Law isn't broken—it's instantaneous.”“If it isn't turning it into work, it's turning it into heat.”Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech TrainingNAPA Autotech's team of ASE Master Certified Instructors are conducting over 1,200 classes covering 28 automotive topics.

Claims that exam papers were being sold to electrical apprentices for 50 euro the night before a test have created questions around public safety. The alleged cheating in the trade also raised serious concerns of alleged criminal activity. We get more details on this story with Ellen Coyne, Political Correspondent with The Irish Times.

Contributor: Travis Barlock, MD Educational Pearls: Quick Statistics on Electrical Burns: Electrical burns compose roughly 2 to 9% of all burns that come into emergency departments. The majority of patients who receive electrical burns are male, typically aged 20's to 30's, accounting for 80 to 90% of all electrical burn victims. The majority of burns are linked to occupational exposure. The upper extremities are more commonly impacted by electrical burns, accounting for 70 to 90% of entry points into the body during an exposure. What are some of the key considerations in electrical burns? Unlike chemical or fire/heat related burns, electrical burns have the potential to cause significant internal damage that may not be physically appreciated externally. This damage can include, but is not limited to: Cardiac dysthymias (PVCs, SVT, AV block, to more serious ventricular dysrhythmias such as ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia). Deep tissue injury resulting in rhabdomyolysis from the initial surge of electricity Rare cases of compartment syndrome What are the treatment considerations for patients who suffer electrical burns? Remembering that cutaneous findings associated with burns may underestimate the severity of the injury, with deeper structures being more likely to be involved as the voltage of the burn injury is directly correlated to severity. Manage the patient's airway, breathing, and circulation as always, and conduct further workup into potential cardiac involvement with EKGs, as well as analysis of the extremities where entry occurred for muscle breakdown and compartment syndrome. Clinical Pearl on Voltage and Current: Voltage can be thought of being equivalent to pressure in a fluid/liquid system. Higher voltages are equivalent to higher pressures, but the ultimate damage delivered to the system is from the rate of delivery/speed of the electrical energy surging (current) through the body. Current is dependent on the tissue it is travelling through, with different tissues having differing electrical resistances. Tissues like the stratum corneum of the skin and the human bone confer the most resistance (thus lower current) whereas skeletal muscle confers lower electrical resistance (thus higher current) due to water and electrolyte content, which is why injuries like rhabdomyolysis are possible and increase with increasing voltage.

Printing as High-Tech: Franklin's Wealth Creation and the Dawn of His Electrical Experiments. Richard Munson discusses how Benjamin Franklin arrived in Philadelphia at age 17 and, in just 22 years, transformed into an independently wealthy experimenter. Printing during this era was the "high-tech of the age," and Franklin's work involved scientific thinking. A powerful driving force was his ambition to be wealthy, maintaining a strong focus on the bottom line. Franklin leveraged quality to secure contracts and was a savvy real estate investor. Franklin became entangled in a bitter political fight with absentee landlord Thomas Penn, who viewed Pennsylvania solely as a source of money. Franklin's independent wealth, achieved when he sold his successful businesses around 1748, allowed him to pursue science. He immediately began experimenting with electricity, performing fundamental research and defining basic structures, introducing key terms like positive and negative, conductors and insulators. Franklin's rising fame as an experimenter eventually led his neighbors to call on him to represent Pennsylvania in London.
