Podcasts about eoc

Two weeks ago, all three of us were in the same room in Denmark, talking O-Ringen, the World Games, and the end of sprint camp. We recorded gold. Pure, unfiltered podcast magic.Then we… didn't release it.Now Tim's missing, Magnus and Ralph are winging it with a half-baked recap of Belgium's EOC test races before awkwardly tacking on that “lost” episode at the end.Think of it as time-travel podcasting — if time-travel also involved bad editing and questionable life choices.

We are looking closely at the EOC selection races in Belgium, but also put in some news and the U10mila.How are the EOC favorites after the races in Belgium?Listen to the episode, and you will know!

Teaching can feel like driving on autopilot - same route, same scenery, same old routine. So what happens when that journey starts to feel monotonous and uninspiring? In today's conversation, I dive deep into a feeling that every teacher experiences at some point: boredom. Whether you're an AP Biology teacher counting down to exam day or a Earth Science instructor trudging through yet another semester of the same curriculum, staleness can creep into even the most passionate teacher's classroom.I've been there, teaching multiple sections of general biology, repeating the same lessons over and over again, semester after semester. That's why I'm sharing eight practical strategies to reignite your teaching spark when your job feels stale. They worked for me, and I know they can work for you too! From considering a new course prep to collaborating with colleagues, investing in fresh resources, and shifting towards more student-centered approaches, these tips are designed to help you break out of your educational rut and rediscover the joy of teaching.➡️ Show Notes: https://itsnotrocketscienceclassroom.com/episode181Resources Mentioned:INRS PD CoursesLabs When Limited Virtual PD Course (free!)Core Values Mini-CourseTeach the Class Project Download your FREE Classroom Reset Challenge.Send me a DM on Instagram: @its.not.rocket.scienceSend me an email: rebecca@itsnotrocketscienceclassroom.com  Follow, rate, and review on Apple Podcasts.Related Episodes and Blog Posts:Episode 29, Student-Centered Pedagogy: What It IsEpisode 30, Student-Centered Pedagogy: Why Make the ShiftEpisode 31, Student-Centered Pedagogy: How to Do ItEpisode 32, Student-Centered Pedagogy: One Way to StartEpisode 72, Review Strategies for EOC, Benchmark, and AP ExamsEpisode 121, Burned Out?

A 70-year-old man presents for evaluation of poorly controlled hypertension despite adherence to five different classes of antihypertensive medications. His medical history includes coronary artery disease with a myocardial infarction 3 years ago, peripheral artery disease, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. He reports no changes in his medication regimen and denies any recent lifestyle modifications. Physical examination reveals a blood pressure of 190/110 mm Hg in the left arm and 180/100 mm Hg in the right arm. His BMI is 24 kg/m². On auscultation, there is no abnormal heart sound. Which of the following additional findings is most likely to be seen in this patient? A. Elevated serum aldosterone-to-renin ratio B. Continuous murmur over the carotid arteries C. Diminished femoral pulses D. Continuous bruit in the lateral periumbilical area E. Pitting edema in the lower extremities Answer and topic summary The answer is D. Continuous bruit in the lateral periumbilical area Renal artery stenosis is a significant cause of secondary hypertension, particularly in patients with a history of atherosclerotic disease, as seen in this patient with coronary artery disease and peripheral artery disease. Resistant hypertension, uncontrolled despite multiple medications, is a hallmark. A continuous bruit in the lateral periumbilical area indicates turbulent blood flow through a narrowed renal artery, supporting this diagnosis. Incorrect Answers: A. Elevated aldosterone-to-renin ratio suggests primary aldosteronism, less likely given the atherosclerotic history pointing to renal artery stenosis. B. A carotid murmur indicates carotid artery disease, unrelated to this hypertension scenario. C. Diminished femoral pulses align with peripheral artery disease, but don't explain the resistant hypertension. E. Pitting edema suggests heart failure or venous insufficiency, not specific to renal artery stenosis.

A 70-year-old woman comes to the emergency department due to sudden-onset chest pain followed by shortness of breath. The pain started 2 hours ago, and she experienced an episode of syncope lasting about 1 minute shortly after the pain began. She has a history of untreated hypertension and hyperlipidemia. Blood pressure is 180/95 mm Hg in both arms; pulse is 110/min and irregular; and respirations are 22/min.

What does it take to sell a startup for almost 20 times what you paid for it?Gabriella (Gabby) Rosen says it comes down to three things:Having an unfair advantage when you buyListing on Acquire.com for slightly less than it's worth when you sellUnderselling the product in the listing when you sellGabby originally acquired her newsletter Nomad Cloud while working as a partner at an email outreach startup called EOC. When she spotted the digital nomad newsletter on Acquire.com, she knew it was a perfect fit for her expertise.Using EOC's tools for highly-targeted email outreach, Gabby and her business partners at EOC turned thousands of keyword searchers into active readers of Nomad Cloud. They also systemized content creation with the help of an assistant and ChatGPT. Soon it was bringing in thousands of dollars a month.But her email startup was growing quickly too. Enough that Gabby couldn't justify splitting her time between two businesses. She moved to sell Nomad Cloud on Acquire.com. With the help of Acquire's acquisition manager Robbie, she flipped the business for 18 times what she paid for it.Tune into Gabriella Rosen's chat with Andrew Gazdecki as they discuss:

A 25-year-old woman comes to the office due to fatigue and dizziness for the past several months. She works as a nurse and finds it increasingly difficult to complete her shifts. The patient reports heavy menstrual periods lasting 7-8 days each month. She has no significant medical history and is not on any medications. Blood pressure is 100/60 mm Hg and pulse is 75/min. BMI is 22 kg/m². Physical examination reveals pale conjunctivae and spoon-shaped nails. Hemoglobin is 8.5 g/dL. Which of the following sets of additional laboratory findings is most likely to be seen in this patient? A. Low ferritin, high TIBC, low serum iron B. High ferritin, low TIBC, high serum iron C. Low ferritin, low TIBC, high serum iron D. High ferritin, high TIBC, low serum iron E. Low ferritin, high TIBC, high serum iron Answer and topic summary The answer is A.  Low ferritin, high TIBC, low serum iron The most likely additional laboratory findings in this patient are low ferritin, high total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), and low serum iron, which are indicative of iron deficiency anemia. Her history of heavy menstrual periods and symptoms of fatigue and pallor suggest chronic blood loss leading to iron deficiency. Ferritin is a marker of iron stores, and low levels indicate depletion of iron reserves. High TIBC reflects increased capacity of the blood to bind iron due to low iron levels.

Description: Co-host Ryan Piansky, a graduate student and patient advocate living with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and eosinophilic asthma, and co-host Mary Jo Strobel, APFED's Executive Director, speak with Dr. Kathryn Peterson, MD, MSCI, a Professor of Gastroenterology at the University of Utah Health. In this episode, Ryan and Mary Jo interview Dr. Peterson about the family risk of eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases, discussing the studies she has done, future work she is planning, and other studies of related topics. She shares that she is a parent to a patient living with an eosinophilic disorder. She hints at future research that may lead to easier diagnosis of EGIDs.   Listen in for more information on Dr. Peterson's work. Disclaimer: The information provided in this podcast is designed to support, not replace the relationship that exists between listeners and their healthcare providers. Opinions, information, and recommendations shared in this podcast are not a substitute for medical advice. Decisions related to medical care should be made with your healthcare provider. Opinions and views of guests and co-hosts are their own.   Key Takeaways: [:49] Ryan Piansky welcomes co-host Mary Jo Strobel. Mary Jo introduces Dr. Kathryn Peterson, a Professor of Gastroenterology at the University of Utah Health. Dr. Peterson specializes in diagnosing and treating diseases of the digestive system including eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), Barrett's esophagus, and inflammatory bowel disease.   [2:00] Dr. Peterson works at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City. She co-directs an eosinophilic gastrointestinal disease clinic with Dr. Amiko Uchida. They also work closely with allergy, nutrition, and pharmacy in the clinic and are looking for additional ancillary services to come into the clinic.   [2:27] Dr. Peterson takes care of all sorts of eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases. She works closely with Dr. Gerald Gleich, as well. Dr. Peterson is a mother of a boy living with eosinophilic disease for 10 years, so she experiences both sides of eosinophilic diseases. She loves her job.   [3:23] Familial risk refers to the risk of the disease in a patient when a family member is affected, compared to the general population. Looking at a proband (patient), is a first-degree family member (parent, sibling, or child) also affected with eosinophilic disease? Is a second-degree family member (grandparent) affected? Are cousins?   [3:58] Dr. Peterson's is trying to see if and how far out the risk for the disease goes within a family. Based on that, you can get an idea if some shared genes are involved, vs. shared environmental influence of the disease within family members. That's the idea of doing family risk studies in complex diseases; eosinophilic diseases are very complex.   [4:44] Dr. Peterson explains how she conducts a family risk study in Utah. The Utah Population Database is very helpful. The University of Utah has partnered with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for large genealogical pedigrees that allow tracking disease through expanded pedigrees, with privacy and security limitations.   [5:24] It's necessary to clarify physician coding to make sure it's realistic and coded appropriately so that results are believable. It's very hard to recruit family members. Dr. Peterson feels extremely blessed to live in that area. The families are generous and giving. She also believes all eosinophilic families are generous.   [6:34] The farther out you can identify the risk for disease, the more likely you will find a common gene that could be implicated in disease risk or onset. If the disease is tracked in extended relatives, it implies a shared gene more than a shared environmental risk. If the disease is isolated within nuclear families, it may indicate an environmental risk.   [7:39] In doing familial research, Dr. Peterson is trying to develop a risk score. People are getting pretty good at diagnosing EoE, but Dr. Peterson would not say that the non-EoE EGIDs are well-established or well-diagnosed. They are missed commonly and often. To have a risk score from the extent of the disease in a family is helpful.    [8:12] Dr. Peterson notes that studies of cancer risk in extended families have established cancer risk scores and related screening that is needed.   [8:43] Dr. Peterson coauthored a paper in November 2020 about the familial risk of EoE, published in the Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology Journal. She and her colleagues looked at nuclear families. They were looking for how many members of the nuclear family of an EoE patient have esophageal eosinophilia. [9:28] They used a questionnaire on allergies, food allergies, and symptoms. They pulled in around 70 first-degree family members and scoped them for eosinophilia, pulled the records on the rest of the family members if they had been scoped, and assessed the risk for eosinophilia.   [9:51] Including the records, and assuming that everyone who hadn't had an endoscopy was negative, they found the risk for esophageal eosinophilia in first-degree family members was 14%, bordering on the familial risk for celiac disease. It's probably higher since they assumed anyone who hadn't been scoped didn't have eosinophilia.   [10:19] They called it esophageal eosinophilia, because the guidelines for diagnosing EoE suggest that the patient must complain of symptoms, and these family members did not have symptoms. It was interesting to find this high prevalence of eosinophilia in the nuclear family members of EoE patients. They had a higher risk of allergy, as well.   [11:14] Dr. Peterson explains the differences between esophageal eosinophilia and eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Esophageal eosinophilia means eosinophils are in the esophagus, >15 per high-power field in a biopsy. That could qualify as EoE when you go through the criteria of symptoms.   [12:19] We call it esophageal eosinophilia while we rule out everything else that could cause that cell to get recruited into the esophagus. It could be an allergic reaction to a medication, larger eosinophilic disorders, or parasitic infections. Esophageal eosinophilia means you had that initial biopsy that puts you at risk for EoE.   [13:06] You have to go down the diagnostic steps: Do I have symptoms? Do I have anything else that explains it? If you have nothing else that explains the eosinophils, and you have esophageal dysfunction, then you can call it EoE.   [13:33] Dr. Peterson, speaking personally, believes that educating doctors to ask patients about EoE symptoms would be useful in diagnosing EoE. People cope. You don't want to focus on your symptoms because you want to be able to focus on your life. If symptoms aren't brought to a doctor's attention, a diagnosis can get missed.   [16:47] Dr. Peterson discusses risks for EoE in families where allergies are present. Dr. Peterson is involved currently in another familial study to find more information about the risk of EoE where there are allergies in a family. In the preliminary data, it looks like there is a link with asthma. Asthma and EoE in a family seem to track together.   [17:31] The risk of EoE seems to be higher with additional allergies within a family. Dr. Peterson says they are cleaning up the data to get a better answer. It appears that allergies in general go along with some of the genes that have been identified in EoE. Watch for Dr. Peterson's papers going forward!   [19:05] They looked at around 300 eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EGE) patients and about 170 eosinophilic colitis (EoC) patients. If you have a proband with EoE, is there a higher family risk of having EGE or EoC? It looks like EoE puts you at higher risk of these other conditions. But with such low numbers in the study, the jury is still out.   [20:37] They looked at EGE codes because there is a subset of patients who have eosinophilic disease in their stomach and small bowel who don't have EoE. They found that in patients who have eosinophilic disease in the stomach or the small bowel, EoE is still commonly seen throughout families. EoE seems to be a common theme.   [21:54] Down the road, Dr. Peterson hopes to be able to identify enough families that they might be able to start looking at genes that might put people at risk for more extensive disease.   [23:07] Dr. Peterson discusses the difficulty in diagnosing eosinophilic colitis, inflammatory bowel disorder, and other disorders. Having eosinophils does not categorize you as an EGID patient. There are other disorders where eosinophils are present. We need a better understanding of eosinophilic colitis.   [25:21] Eosinophilic asthma and eosinophilic fasciitis are disorders that Dr. Peterson has not studied but are in the Institutional Review Board approved documentation for future study.   [26:18] Dr. Peterson addresses whether your degree of risk for an EGID increases if you have an immediate family member with an EGID, vs. a second cousin with an EGID. She would say yes, based on the hazard ratios in the data and knowing that eosinophilic disorders are complex and twin studies show an environmental influence.   [27:28] Dr. Peterson asks patients about their family history, especially when they have other symptoms besides EoE. It makes her more aware of what to test.   [29:10] A paper Dr. Peterson is about to submit studied family members who weren't affected, who were siblings of probands. Their mucosa wasn't entirely normal. They may be pre-diagnostic. These are patients who need to be followed. There may be things that set people up for the development of this disease, in the right environment.   [31:04] Something fascinating from the familial study is the challenge of diagnosing EGIDs. Fifty percent of the people they brought in hadn't had an endoscopy. We need to be proactive in identifying diseases in patients. In the study, there are a lot of general GI symptoms coded that Dr. Peterson wonders if they may be missed EGIDs.   [32:34] The NIH gave Dr. Peterson's team funding and they were able to do linkage analysis on several de-identified families that were at high risk for EGIDs. It looks like multiple genes have the potential to be involved. Personalizing medicine would be applicable if there were just one specific gene involved.   [33:23] Down the road, we may find some genes that portend higher risk and other genes that portend risk where we can do preventative environmental care. We can develop risk scores to identify risks and point to interventions.   [34:10] Mary Jo thanks Dr. Peterson for joining us today to share her expertise and help us learn and understand.   [34:36] Future research needs to be done where we are able to recruit patients and do more work looking at genetic linkage and get to the point where we can diagnose and identify non-EoE EGIDs well enough to explore them more, including eosinophilic colitis. Defining those diseases is necessary and needed.   [35:16] A lot of what Dr. Peterson is trying to do is to look further into combined diseases and hypereosinophilic states to determine if there is some gene within families that may help her to develop other therapies not focusing only on the GI tract but on a global approach to health for these patients.   [35:48] There is current research being done to find less invasive ways of identifying disease, such as imaging, so people don't have to undergo endoscopy. That research is being done on the commercial side.   [36:44] Dr. Peterson has been looking at food-specific antibodies. Also, research by other doctors is being done to identify other markers of the foods that often trigger the disease. There has been some interesting preliminary data. This can help patients to eliminate fewer foods.   [37:27] Dr. Peterson has been looking at less invasive ways to identify non-EoE EGIDs in ways that can avoid biopsy.   [38:04] What's being done to study Barrett's esophagus? Dr. Peterson speaks of past and planned research, using the Utah population database. They looked at the risk for Barrett's esophagus in patients with EoE and it was eight times higher than the normal population. Dr. Peterson correlates risks with reflux for Barrett's and EoE.   [39:26] There are still questions about which comes first, EoE, Barret's esophagus, or reflux. She also talks about the relationship between achalasia, allergic diseases, and EoE.   [41:05] To learn more about Dr. Peterson's research, please see the links in the show notes.

During the tumultuous aftermath of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, JetBlue was a two-year-old company, trying to make a name for itself in the competitive airline industry. While the task of remaining in business seemed daunting for even the most established carriers, the upstart JetBlue was one of the only airlines that remained profitable in the months after.Penny Neferis remembers that time well. As JetBlue's Director of Business Continuity, Disaster Recovery, and Emergency Response, and one of its longest-tenured employees, Penny has seen the company “take off” from the ground up. In this episode of the Disaster Tough Podcast, she talks about how the lessons learned in the aftermath of 9/11 helped lay the foundation for the success story that JetBlue is today.

Hurricanes, floods, wildfires. Depending on where you live there are times when authorities tell you it's in your best interests to leave your home. This gets people to safety and creates necessary room for emergency teams they so desperately need. Evacuation is scary for residents. Some may have a chronic illness, some are afraid their home or property may be damaged or looted, and yes good old-fashioned stubbornness is another factor. Sometimes people feel they can do a better job of protecting their property than emergency officials and they aren't necessarily always wrong. But emergency teams are beginning to notice a trend. The percentage of people refusing to leave is growing and that's creating more danger. Additionally, there are stories of verbal abuse and intimidation toward emergency personnel trying to do a very difficult job.  What is a communications pro to do? Guest: Tim Conrad, APR, Butterfly Effect CommunicationsEmail | Website | Facebook | X | LinkedIn | Instagram | You Tube Rate this podcast with just one click Leave us a voice message we can share on the podcast  https://www.speakpipe.com/StoriesandStrategiesStories and Strategies Website Do you want to podcast?

Listen, Watch, & Support DTP: www.thereadinesslab.com/dtp-links #emergencymanagement #disastertough #leadership #mentorship#education #risinggeneration #emergencyservices ---The podcast emphasizes several key points about prioritizing tasks, especially in the context of emergency management:Distinction between Urgent and Important Tasks: It's crucial to differentiate between tasks that are urgent and those that are important. The long-term impact of a task should be a guiding factor in determining its importance.Life Saving and Sustaining Tasks as Priority: The most critical tasks are those that are life-saving and sustaining. These should always be prioritized above others.Scale for Measuring Impact: A practical approach is to use a scale of 1 to 10 to assess the impact of a task. Ask whether the task will have a positive impact in a week, a month, or a year. Tasks scoring below 5 should be re-evaluated for their necessity.Balancing Professional and Personal Priorities: There should be a balance between professional responsibilities and personal life. Important tasks in both areas should be identified and prioritized accordingly.Communicating with Supervisors: In a professional setting, it's essential to communicate with supervisors about one's preferences and priorities. This can help in aligning tasks with personal interests and strengths.Long-Term Planning: Long-term planning and focusing on goals that have significant future benefits can help in prioritizing tasks more effectively.Dealing with Scope Creep: In fields like emergency management, there's often a risk of 'scope creep' where everything seems urgent. Recognizing what's truly important can help in avoiding burnout and maintaining focus.Weighing Positive and Negative Impacts: When evaluating tasks, consider both the positive and negative long-term impacts. This helps in making more informed decisions about what to prioritize.Recognizing the Value of Failure: Understanding that it's okay for less important tasks to fail or be deprioritized can be crucial in effective time management.Seeking Peer Advice: In cases of uncertainty about prioritization, seeking advice from colleagues or industry peers can provide valuable insights.

Tonight, I have the amazing opportunity to hear the thoughts and realities of the work and resiliency of black Social workers, who by their own resilience battle systemic sexism.I'm talking intelligent and passionate. This discussion wades through the facade of being a social worker in such a time as this in such a system as we are given to help others yet help ourselves.  I was thrown to hear how the teachers start to brain wash the students even before graduation. What???? There is a lot of trauma and the bullshit given to someone on the sharp end of personal and institutional racism.I knew that competent and passionate Black and Minority Ethnic (BAME) are put through imbalanced responsibilities and were always put in the backend leadership because it happened to me.    From being given insurmountable tasks to not receiving the support they need to live a balanced life, only to later on eventually burn out.  I want to share their stories so that we all look at what we think we want to do with a little more research and planning so that we don't become the test subject in our own lives  Hear the Thoughts and truth from black social workers.  #socialworkers #socialworkbreaksbarriers #lifecoachforwomen #blacklinkedin#blacksocialworkers EOC of Suffolk, Inc. Family Services   --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/keepingitrealonpurpose/message

During an emergency, the Nevada County Office of Emergency Services activates something called the Emergency Operations Center, or EOC. It works to help coordinate support for tactical field operations, and it's especially important during events like wildfires. KVMR's Cláudio Mendonça spoke with three of its members.

During an emergency, the Nevada County Office of Emergency Services activates something called the Emergency Operations Center, or EOC. It works to help coordinate support for tactical field operations, and it's especially important during events like wildfires. We hear from members of Nevada County's Emergency Operations Center, the central site for managing and coordinating the support of tactical field operations during emergencies like wildfires. Oil and gas wells left behind by operators can have less than favorable effects on residents living around them — dizziness, nausea, and headaches, just to name a few. The California Report covers new efforts to help permanently seal them. We close with an essay by Molly Fisk.

In this episode, Dr. Nadia Mohandessi sits down with Ms. Patsy Fletcher, recently retired from the USACE Emergency Support Function #3 (ESF #3) Permanent Cadre, and Ms. Franchesca Gilbert, N-LGL Subject Matter Expert, to discuss the National-Local Government Liaison (N-LGL) Program and Cadre. The N-LGL Cadre is comprised of specially trained individuals from across USACE who deploy during disaster response efforts when requested by FEMA. N-LGLs work under FEMA leadership and integrate into a FEMA Branch or Division located at a city or county EOC to serve as the initial USACE point person at this level to help explain USACE's missions under FEMA. They do not, however, commit USACE or the government to any work for the state or locals under FEMA or USACE's authorities.

This week, I will be discussing the skill sets that I believe are necessary to become a next-generation emergency manager. These skills range from being thrifty with money to learning how to map using drones, to effectively communicating with strangers and building lasting relationships. These are the skills that have not only helped me throughout my career but have also proven to be valuable during unexpected situations.Top 10 Emergency Management Skills10: Networking: If you can't make friends, or at least sustain relationships, you're probably not going to succeed in this field.9: Be an entrepreneur - You'll never have enough money to do what you need to do. Be passionate about the work and find ways to make it happen. Adapt, overcome, excel on the cheap.8: Expertise - You can't be bad at this job. There is no "good enough" when it comes to education, training, and experience. Have a broad range of expertise.7: Wellness Minded - Taking care of yourself is the only way you can take care of others. Advocate for time off, 8-hour shifts, stress management, mental health support, exercise, healthy eating, and sleep. Just say no to EOC drugs, caffeine, and nicotine.6: Critical Thinking - Shed your ego and bias. Don't commit to bad strategies and tactics because your ego is too invested. Pause, breathe, and assess the data. Avoid the sunk cost fallacy.5: Data visualization - Communicating complex data simply is an art and a necessarily skill. How you communicate data can make the difference in getting grants, managing incidents, and keeping everyone informed. 4: Get good at Tech - This is a technical job. Don't be a Luddite. Radios are more complicated. Software has more capabilities. Alert and warning systems are complex. GIS, drones, mapping, and cybersecurity are all important.3: Planning - Plan to plan. Plans can help you set goals, navigate the unknown, build foundations, and measure success.2: Be innovative and creative - On and off the job, you'll need to innovate. Disasters don't follow formulas. Taking time to do something creative on your own can help fire up the synapses you'll need in an emergency. Draw, paint, build, read, write, think. If your only tool is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. 1: Communication - It's 90% of the job. You need to be able to talk to a lot of people in different settings and through different mediums.Bonus: Be good at a lot of things. Mission creep is part of the job. Until enough help arrives, you may be doing everything.
