Nasal disorders are common in practice, and the nursing care these patients need is vast. From those snuffly cat ‘flu patients who are really miserable, dehydrated and anorexic, to lifelong diseases like rhinitis, there's a lot to think about when managing these patients. In episode 65 of the Medical Nursing Podcast, we'll introduce the common nasal disorders seen, the problems they cause, and the nursing care patients with them benefit from - and then we'll dive deeper into common nasal diseases in the next few episodes. --- Resources mentioned in this episode:

Because there are no symptoms in the early stages of pancreatic cancer “about 75 to 80 percent of patients are diagnosed in the later stages of the disease,” said Somashekar Krishna, MD, a James physician scientist who specializes in the early detection and screening of pancreatic cancer. Krishna and the team of pancreatic cancer experts at the James are using enhanced screening and artificial intelligence (AI) to better identify pre-cancerous cysts and cancerous tumors in the pancreas; and are the first in the world to use high-tech ablation techniques to attack and kill pancreatic cysts and tumors in a new clinical trial. Most pancreatic cancer tumors begin as pre-cancerous cysts and are most commonly found in people 60 and older. “For people in their 50s there is about a 10-percent prevalence, this doubles in people 60 to 70 to 20 percent and is 25 to 30 percent in people 70 to 80,” Krishna said, adding, “most are small and never grow and become cancerous.” Endoscopy procedures are used to better “see” these cysts and cancerous tumors, and the use of artificial intelligence is another tool to identify and determine the risk factor of pre-cancerous cysts. “The tip of the endoscopy probe can see even the tiniest structures in a very detailed manner, and we can pass a needle through the scope and do a biopsy and establish the risk,” Krishna said. Surgery is one option, but the procedure is quite invasive and not easily tolerated by older patient with other medical issues. “A new option is ablation, using heat, in a very precise and careful manner,” Krishna said. “We are the only ones doing this in the United States and have done this with nearly 30 patients in a clinical trial.” Krishna is determined to improve screening and treatment for pancreatic cancer and reduce the mortality rate. “Early in my career, 80 percent of patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer did not make it more than a year,” he said. “We want to change these outcomes to intervene early and with better and better treatment options.”

SEASON 3 EPISODE 90: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: To repeat myself - because I’m RIGHT - File motions to impeach Trump NOW. Move to impeach Trump today, AND KEEP MOVING to impeach Trump every day through next year’s midterms. Impeachment is UNDEFEATED. UNDEFEATED in American history. House Democrats: he handed you TWELVE, maybe FIFTEEN new counts on Friday night alone. Blatantly, brazenly illegal dismissals of Departmental Inspector Generals, just as Project 2025 promised, and the School Safety Board. Elimination of oversight. Elimination of legal protections against the mass murder of children. In the old days you might’ve arrested Trump. Now you are limited to impeachment bills that will all fail EXCEPT THEY WILL ULTIMATELY SUCCEED. Impeach him for the Friday Night massacre. Impeach him for circumventing the 14th Amendment. He just ramped up the migrant arrest quota to 1500 a day and started raids in Chicago yesterday: Impeach him for violating the 4th Amendment. And if I hear one more piece of blowback to my PREVIOUS call to impeach him no matter the outcome, one more head-shake from a cowardly Democrat, and especially one more factually inaccurate claim that it doesn’t work, one more self-absorbed loser saying ‘Impeach? Yeah, sounds good. How did it work out for us last time? Pretty effing well, actually. The mere TALK of impeaching Trump helped the Democrats win the House in 2018 and break Trump tri-partite control of government. The FIRST impeachment was followed by keeping the house in 2020 and after the Georgia election, taking the senate in 2020, and oh by the way the White House in 2020. The SECOND impeachment crushed any lingering attempt by Trump to overthrow the Biden Government-In-Waiting in 2021 and provided the impetus for the January 6th prosecutions. In fact, since Nixon, every party that impeached or TRIED to impeach a president won the next elections. House, Senate, White House. Thirteen straight. IMPEACHMENT – EVEN FAILED IMPEACHMENT - IS UNDEFEATED. ALSO: The Media capitulation continues. Acosta's show cancelled by the latest CNN job who hasn't been able to keep a job since 2000. And how did appeasing Trump work out for you ABC, CBS, and NBC? Trump's FCC reinstated license challenges against your stations, Trump wants Maddow jailed, and at Disney: ESPN's Stephen A. Smith just made a Trumpist idiot out of himself. B-Block (35:12) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Trump has too many Bennies to keep them all straight: can't remember the Chairman of the January 6th Committee he wants to jail. Even the NFL is sucking up to Elon "It Only LOOKED Like A Nazi Salute" Trump. And the first baseball player since like 1877 to get the mouth sores and skin rashes of Hand, Foot and Mouth disease just endorsed Robert F. Kennedy Jr. C-Block (46:25) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: You know what it's like in this country right now? It's like we all just woke up from the anesthesia in the MIDDLE of a medical procedure. You know how I know this? Because I'm one of those people who actually DID wake up in the middle of a medical procedure - and I'm having the same procedure TOMORROW.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textStomach cancer, often referred to as gastric cancer, is a sneaky cancer.  Its symptoms can be easily mistaken for more benign conditions like indigestion or acid reflux, making early detection a challenge. In our latest podcast episode, we delve into this complex disease with the help of two esteemed experts: gastroenterologist Dr. Walid Chaloub, and Dr. Ritu Mukherji, a medical oncologist from MedStar Georgetown Cancer Institute in D.C. Host Debra Schindler explores the biology of stomach cancer with her physician guests to understand how mutations in the DNA of stomach cells can lead to uncontrolled growth and tumor formation. This formidable disease often goes unnoticed until it has advanced significantly, highlighting the critical need for awareness and early detection. Dr. Mukherji shares the various risk factors associated with stomach cancer, including smoking, diet, and certain bacterial infections like H. Pylori. She emphasizes the importance of molecular testing in diagnosing and treating this disease, as it can reveal specific mutations that may be targeted with personalized therapies. The episode also explores the different diagnostic tools available, such as endoscopy and CT scans, and the role of tumor markers in assessing the presence of cancer. While these tools are invaluable, Dr. Mukherji stresses that they are not foolproof, underscoring the importance of comprehensive testing and expert analysis. One of the most enlightening parts of the discussion is the potential for treatment and even cure. While surgery is a common approach, not all patients are candidates. The podcast highlights the evolving role of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapies, offering hope to those battling this disease. Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of the symptoms to watch for, the importance of genetic predispositions, and the latest advancements in treatment. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in learning more about stomach cancer, whether for personal knowledge or to support a loved one. Tune in to this informative episode to arm yourself with the knowledge needed to recognize the signs of stomach cancer early and explore the treatment options available. Your Health, or that of someone you care about, could depend on it.---For more episodes of MedStar Health DocTalk, go to medstarhealth.org/doctalk.

Episode 44 of the Pound of Cure Weight Loss podcast offers a deep dive into cutting-edge treatments and strategies for long-term weight management, focusing on GLP-1 medications for weight loss, the emerging technology of duodenal mucosa ablation, and the issue of weight regain after GLP-1 treatment cessation. Hosted by Dr. Matthew Weiner, bariatric surgeon, and Zoe Schroeder, registered dietitian, this episode explores innovative methods to combat weight regain while delivering practical nutritional advice for sustained success.The episode begins with a light conversation about nutrition, as Zoe highlights how bananas are often unfairly demonized. Dr. Weiner suggests a simple hydration solution—water and a banana—as a healthier alternative to processed electrolyte supplements, setting the tone for the podcast's emphasis on whole, unprocessed foods.Weight Regain After GLP-1 MedicationsThe focus then shifts to the weight regain after GLP-1 medications—a challenge faced by many patients after discontinuing these treatments. Dr. Weiner introduces Revita, a new device that uses duodenal mucosa ablation to help maintain weight loss following the cessation of GLP-1 drugs. Revita recently received FDA breakthrough device designation for its ability to treat patients who experience weight regain after stopping GLP-1 medications for weight loss. Dr. Weiner discusses how this endoscopic device works by ablating (burning) the mucosa in the duodenum, a section of the small intestine, potentially mimicking the effects of gastric bypass surgery. This approach aims to create a bypass-like effect without traditional surgery, helping to address the critical issue of weight regain after GLP-1 medication cessation.Duodenal Mucosa Ablation - Skepticism and Safety ConcernsWhile Dr. Weiner expresses some skepticism about the theory behind the duodenal mucosa ablation, he acknowledges the potential of the Revita device, particularly given the high economic burden and ongoing shortages of GLP-1 medications for weight loss. He notes that while the data is promising, safety concerns—such as the risk of perforation and chronic inflammation—must be addressed before widespread adoption of this technology.In addition to discussing duodenal mucosa ablation and the challenges of weight regain after GLP-1, Dr. Weiner and Zoe offer practical nutritional guidance. They emphasize the importance of long-term dietary changes, including incorporating more whole foods, fruits, and vegetables, especially for patients on GLP-1 medications for weight loss or recovering from weight loss surgery. The podcast underscores that successful weight management requires sustainable habits, from meal planning to making healthier choices amidst busy schedules.As they wrap up the episode, Dr. Weiner and Zoe reflect on the future of obesity treatment, acknowledging that a combination of GLP-1 medications for weight loss, non-surgical techniques like GLP-1 medications and the duodenal mucosa ablation, and proper nutrition will continue to evolve. While these treatments are not magic solutions, they hold significant promise in tackling the persistent challenge of weight regain after GLP-1 cessation.Episode 44 provides a valuable perspective on the latest developments in weight management, particularly for those using GLP-1 medications for weight loss or considering alternatives like duodenal mucosa ablation. Dr. Weiner and Zoe's thoughtful discussion offers essential insights for patients navigating the complexities of weight loss surgery, medication, and nutritional strategies for long-term success.
