Emergency departments across the U.S. are under unprecedented strain, with overcrowding, staffing shortages, and inpatient bed constraints converging into a throughput crisis. The American Hospital Association reports that hospital capacity and workforce growth have lagged, intensifying delays from arrival to disposition. At the same time, advances in artificial intelligence are moving from experimental to operational—raising the stakes for how technology can meaningfully improve patient flow rather than add complexity.So, how can emergency departments reduce bottlenecks and move patients more efficiently through care without compromising clinical judgment or trust?Welcome to I Don't Care. In the latest episode, host Dr. Kevin Stevenson sits down with Mitch Quinn, Director of AI/ML at ChoreoED, to explore how AI-driven insights can help hospitals anticipate admissions and discharges earlier, coordinate downstream services, and ultimately improve ED throughput. Their conversation spans the real-world operational challenges ED leaders face, the practical application of machine learning in high-acuity settings, and what it takes to deploy AI tools that clinicians actually trust and use.What you'll learn…How AI models trained on a hospital's own historical data can accurately anticipate admissions up to hours earlier, enabling parallel workflows.Why focusing on “high-certainty” admissions and discharges—rather than rare edge cases—creates immediate operational value in the ED.How adaptive, continuously retrained models can support both experienced clinicians and newer providers in high-turnover environments.Mitch Quinn is a Director of AI and Machine Learning and a computer scientist with 20+ years of experience building production-grade AI systems across healthcare and cybersecurity. He specializes in deep learning, large-scale model architecture, and end-to-end ML pipelines, with leadership roles spanning applied research at Blue Cross NC, enterprise AI consulting, and real-time cyber threat detection. His career highlights include designing high-performance deep neural networks, anomaly detection systems operating at enterprise scale, and foundational software frameworks used by large engineering organizations.

In Part 2 of this two-part Echo Episode, Dr. Andrea Austin and Dr. Mehrdad Soleimani picks up right where they  left off: two emergency physicians who actually like coming to work, unpacking the systemic forces that are burning everyone else out. Dr. Mehrdad explains why he co-founded NeoMd Spa.  It started with one vial of Botox and a refusal to be a 60-year-old shift-worker, how physicians surrendered control of their profession to corporations, and why financial wellness is the missing pillar no one talks about. Dr. Andrea and  Dr. Mehrdad wrestle with the death of the democratic group, the rise of corporate metrics, and the urgent need for physicians to reclaim leadership, unity, and their voices.Wrapped in stories of cross-specialty happy hours, Peloton-fueled pandemic survival, and a beautiful real-time patient handoff, this episode is a rallying cry: stop complaining, start building, stay connected, and never forget, we are all members of one body.You'll Hear How They:· Expose the financial traps that keep high-earning physicians living paycheck-to-paycheck and overworking· Reveal why every single guest this season has a “side gig” — and why that's now a survival strategy· Break down the shift from physician-owned democratic groups to corporate medicine (and what we lost)· Show how one med-spa became a hedge against burnout and a reclaiming of professional autonomy· Prove that culture change happens in 10-minute handoffs and cross-specialty happy hours, not just policy memos· Issue a call for physician unity, leadership, and using your voice before you end up “on the menu”About the Guest“Just because I was born a man doesn't mean I'm better than anybody else.” — Dr. Mehrdad SoleimaniDr. Mehrdad Soleimani is a board-certified emergency physician, Assistant Director of the Emergency Department at Temecula Valley Hospital, and Chair of the hospital's Physician Wellness Committee. A former critical-care nurse, general surgery resident, proud girl-dad of three, and co-owner/medical director of NeoMed Spa, Mehrdad brings a rare blend of clinical expertise, emotional intelligence, and lived experience as an immigrant to his passionate advocacy for physician wellness and gender equity.Website: https://neomedicalspa.comResources + Mentions· NEOMD Spa – https://neomedicalspa.com· Financial wellness as a pillar of physician well-being· Visible Voices podcast with Dr. Risa Lavizzo-Mourey (“Use your voice”)· Persianpoetry: “Human beings are members of a whole…”Top 3 Key TakeawaysFinancial wellness is physician wellness : Stop the “just pick up one more shift” cycle and build something that gives you passive income and freedom.We gave away control of our profession: if you want autonomy back, you have to own something (a practice, a business, a voice at the table).Culture is built in the small moments: A thoughtful handoff, a happy hour with ortho, inviting the security guard to break bread , these are the ripples that change everything.

What does a man raised in a country where women are legally second-class citizens become one of the strongest male allies in American medicine?In Part 1 of this two-part Echo Episode, Dr. Mehrdad  Soleimani pulls back the curtain on his improbable journey: fleeing Iran at 16, putting himself through nursing school as a first-generation immigrant, defending his female nursing colleagues from an abusive surgeon and then deciding that very night to become a doctor, switching specialties mid-residency, and ultimately landing in emergency medicine, where he now champions wellness, debriefing, and the “human factor.”Mehrdad and Andrea explore why stoicism and perfectionism are killing physicians, why it's actually strength (not weakness) to feel deeply in the resuscitation room, and how small acts of allyship, from checking in on a new female colleague to calling consultants on her behalf, change culture one shift at a time. This episode is a love letter to every physician humanity and a masterclass in what authentic male allyship feels like on the ground.You'll Hear How They:Trace the roots of fierce gender-equity beliefs to a mother who refused to accept second-class status in IranReveal the night a cardiothoracic surgeon's tantrum pushed a male ICU nurse to apply to medical schoolDiscuss why switching residencies even after years invested, can be the bravest and best career decision Unpack the hidden curriculum of medicine: stoicism, perfectionism, and competition,  and why it's failing usChampion debriefing, emotional processing, and the power of the “feeling doctor” who still gets the job done Model everyday allyship that makes women physicians feel seen, supported, and safer in the workplaceAbout the Guest“Just because I was born a man doesn't mean I'm better than anybody else.” — Dr. Mehrdad SoleimaniDr. Mehrdad Soleimani is a board-certified emergency physician, Assistant Director of the Emergency Department at Temecula Valley Hospital, and Chair of the hospital's Physician Wellness Committee.

Over 12,000 Clare people have attended the emergency department at University Hospital Galway in the last three years. New figures released by HSE Mid West to Mayor of Ennis, Fine Gael Councillor Mary Howard, show a total of 12,516 people with Clare addresses presented at the ED in Galway from the beginning of 2023 to the end of October of this year. The data also reveals that 3,436 Clare residents have travelled to the facility this year alone. Councillor Howard has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons people should be able to access treatment closer to home.

Management at University Hospital Limerick have asked the public to first consider all available healthcare alternatives before attending the Emergency Department there, which is currently prioritising treatment of the sickest, most seriously injured and frailest patients. This follows the huge demand the Dooradoyle facility has experienced for its services. In the 24 hours between Monday and Tuesday, upwards of 350 people attended the Emergency Department there in the past 24 hours. For more on this, HSE Mid-West Regional Executive Officer Sandra Broderick joined Alan Morrissey on Morning Focus. Photo (c) Clare FM

In this St Emlyn's podcast, Ian Beardsell and Simon Carley speak with RAF GP Phil Lucas from the Royal Air Force Centre of Aerospace Medicine at the BASICS conference in Leicestershire. They explore what really happens when a pilot pulls the ejection handle, and what this means for pre-hospital and Emergency Department teams who may be the first to see an ejectee. Phil explains: • Why the aviation environment is so hostile to humans and how aerospace medicine supports aircrew • How modern ejection seats work – from canopy jettison and rocket firing to parachute deployment and landing • The decision making required to eject in a matter of seconds, and how pilots are trained to be “mentally ready” • Typical injury patterns after ejection, how technology has reduced spinal compression injuries, and where the remaining risks lie • Practical considerations for ED and pre-hospital teams when a pilot presents after ejection, including spinal precautions and safe removal of flight equipment • The psychological impact of surviving a crash or ejection, how support needs can change over months, and what helps people return to flying • Aviation medicine as a career path, including the role of the RAF Centre of Aerospace Medicine, the diploma in aviation medicine, and how this can sit alongside general practice or emergency care This conversation draws strong parallels between aviation and emergency medicine: human factors, training under pressure, using simulation and mental rehearsal, and the importance of honest, individualised psychological support after critical incidents.

'Heidi' records consultations and automatically creates draft clinical notes, referral letters, and follow-up summaries for doctors to review and approve. Dr Benjamin Pearson is Hawke's Bay's Chief Medical Officer spoke to Corin Dann.

Doctors in Health New Zealand's emergency departments could soon be saving precious time with the roll out of a helpful AI tool. AI technology Heidi creates a written transcript of doctors' consultations and makes a medical note. Country-wide trials show clinicians could see an extra patient per shift, while bringing down average documentation time from around 17 minutes to just over four per patient. Heidi New Zealand Clinical Director Ben Condon told Mike Hosking the AI not only creates a written transcript, but can also use templates to create medical notes, discharge summaries, and referral letters, among other things. He says doctors will still be responsible for reviewing the notes and letters for accuracy, but time will be saved by having them ready to review in real time.

In this illuminating episode of Migraine Heroes, hosted by Diane Ducarme sits down with Dr. Kat Bodden, a naturopathic doctor from Portland, Oregon, who specializes in environmental medicine and toxin-related illness. Together, they explore how environmental toxins—from household products, plastics, mold, and air pollution—can contribute to migraines and other chronic symptoms.Dr. Kat explains that while we live in a world saturated with chemicals, we still hold the power to create safer, healthier spaces. Using her “body as a bucket” analogy, she describes how toxins accumulate over time—eventually overflowing into symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, and migraine pain. Her approach focuses on two empowering strategies: 1️⃣ Stop adding toxins: Reduce exposure at home. 2️⃣ Detoxify naturally: Support the body through gentle daily habits and stress reduction.

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: Traumatic Brain Injuries are a frequent complaint in the Emergency Department and have increased in recent years. The American Association for Surgery of Trauma (AAST) has created Brain Injury Guidelines (BIG), in an attempt to categorize brain injuries and the level of treatment they require. They are… BIG 1 Normal neuro exam Not intoxicated Not on anticoagulation or antiplatelet medications Minimal findings on head CT No fracture 8 mm bleed (subdural, epidural, intraparenchymal (or more than 2 locations)) “Scattered” subarachnoid hemorrhage Intraventricular hemorrhage     Full treatment, admission to trauma center, neurosurgery evaluation References Joseph B, Friese RS, Sadoun M, Aziz H, Kulvatunyou N, Pandit V, Wynne J, Tang A, O'Keeffe T, Rhee P.

BRUE, Brief Resolved Unexplained Events, are a common and anxiety-provoking condition that presents to the Emergency Department. In this episode we explore the definition of BRUE, contrast it with ALTE, and walk through evidence-based approaches to risk stratification. We'll explore the original AAP framework and two subsequent prediction models to see where the recommendations stand today. This is a classic example of scary event / well child that you will see in the Emergency Department. Learning Objectives By the end of this episode, you will be able to: Define BRUE and contrast it with the older concept of ALTE. Recognize evolving risk stratification criteria Apply evidence-based strategies for evaluation and counseling of infants with BRUE, including safe discharge decisions and the role of home monitoring.

Cancer survival rates in New Zealand are falling behind other similar countries. Too many people are being diagonosed with late stage cancer in Emergency Departments or through accute hospital admissions according the Cancer Control Agency. It says that's a symptom of poor access to primary care. Cancer Control Agency chief executive Rami Rahal spoke to Lisa Owen.

Pyelonephritis is a commonly treated diagnosis in the emergency department.

Join Dr Gabor as she discusses this article and its treatment recommendations for outpatient pyelonephritis with cephalosporins and how it compares to treatment with the more traditional fluoroquinolones / bactrim route.

This month we've got three really interesting papers that shine a light on aspects of cardiac arrest management that many of us will recognise from clinical practice. First up, we look at the feasibility of arterial line placement during ongoing cardiac arrest in the Emergency Department. In our SPEAR episode we talked about the balance between securing invasive monitoring versus the potential distraction from other essential parts of resuscitation. This paper takes a pragmatic look at whether arterial access is achievable in that critical period in the Emergency Department, the success rate and the time required.  Next up, we look at a paper that helps to give us a more accurate feel for the rate and predictors of high-risk adverse events for Emergency Department paediatric ketamine sedation. Our final paper looks at ultrasound during cardiac arrest. Specifically, whether the hands-off time during the pulse check are longer with traditional manual checks or with ultrasound. This systematic review and meta-analysis puts some numbers to the best way to minimising hands-off time. So whether you're a regular on the arrest team, sedating children, or supporting resuscitation from the periphery, these papers provide some useful food for thought on where our focus should be in those critical minutes. Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon & Rob
