Shakings Coming (1) (audio) David Eells – 6-24-26 IT WILL SHAKE THE WORLD! Lynne Johnson 5-27-26 IAM, King Yeshuya wants you, My people to know that all will erupt soon in Iran. President Trump is playing a waiting game with the radicalized left in the IRGC for there are many factions vying for control. Trump is ensuring that when the United States military strikes Iran, the United States will have very few casualties. Trump doesn't want American casualties, therefore the United States is intending to use all intelligence being fathered to ensure few American casualties. When the U.S. Military strikes, there will be no doubt that the IRGC, in its radical form, is no longer in existence. Once assured of the success of this campaign, Trump will have the military pull back to the general areas away from Iran. Very shortly after the United States military pulls back from Iran, then Israel will strike. First, Damascus, Syria (a weapon depot) destroying it. Next, Israel will move against Iran's nuclear facilities along with their weapon depots. These strikes will effectively end Iran's nuclear program. Once this is concluded, then very shortly look for the First Event of MY Judgments (again these events of Mine, King Yeshuya, are not those of Tribulation, which are far worse, for a much longer time frame), the California earthquake which will shake the world as this earthquake is massive in size and in effect. I AM, King Yeshuya tells you this again so that you MY children, MY Believers are warned to plan, to prepare for what is soon to occur. IAM always warns ahead through MY prophets and messengers. Listen to My Words, heed My Warnings for they are to help protect you and your families. Continue MY children to come to ME in prayer, stay in MY Word, stay focused, stay calm. Come directly to ME, King Yeshuya with your queries. I AM will gladly answer you. IAM loves you MY children. Your King Yeshuya, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Most High, Commander of heaven's hosts and armies, the Lion of Judah, the Prince of Peace. Scriptures: Psalm 20:7 NKJV “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we will remember and trust in the name of the Lord our God.” Isaiah 43:2 NKJV “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through fire, you will not be scorched, nor will the flame burn you.” Ezekiel 7:7 NKJV “Doom has come to you, you who dwell in the land; the time has come, a day of trouble is near, and not of rejoicing in the mountains.” Isaiah 17:1 NIV “A prophecy against Damascus: “See, Damascus will no longer be a city but will become a heap of ruins.” Isaiah 13:9 NKJV “Behold, the day of the Lord comes, cruel with both wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate; and He will destroy its sinners from it.” Isaiah 13:6 NKJV “Wait, for the day of the Lord is at hand! It will come as destruction from the Almighty.” John 14:29 NKJV “And now I told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe.” Lamentations 3:25 NKJV “The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul who seeks Him.” FAMINE WILL EXTEND WORLDWIDE Lynne Johnson – 5-9-26 I AM, King Yeshuya, would like MY people to know that it is soon for the “Iranian Conflict” to conclude. It will end as IAM has stated; the United States will deploy missiles, which will effectively end the IRGC Regime's control over Iran. Then the United States will pull back their military, leaving destroyers, aircraft carriers, and such in the area. Shortly after the United States military is pulled back, Israel will strike Damascus, the other weapon depots in Syria, then strike Iran's nuclear facilities and weapon depots. Israel will present the truth with proof that Iran fully intended to finish the building of nuclear bombs to destroy Israel. There will be the usual outcry, but no one will “lift a hand” against Israel, for all of the surrounding Arab nations know the truth. They also know that they were not safe from Iran's nuclear attacks. Again MY children, this is your marker to know that you only have a short time to finish getting your food, to prepare for what is coming, MY First Event – Judgment upon California. Do not put off procuring your food, your other necessities. Use cash as much as possible and by going to different stores. Do not discuss storing food with ANY OTHERS as IAM has clearly stated unless you have spoken directly with ME, King Yeshuya, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords to find out who you are able to trust. Ensure that you get your answer from ME, BEFORE you talk with others. If you choose not to listen to ME here, you and your family will suffer harm. People will become desperate quickly for food – any food that they are able to find. They do not wish to share, and they will harm others to get food. Those who have not done so recently or at all, are to read Jeremiah – ALL OF IT! You will see what hunger does to people. There will be few people who you will be able to trust now, so be discreet and come to ME, King Yeshuya to find out who you can SAFELY SHARE YOUR FOOD WITH. You must also accept MY answer as final. IAM alone sees the hearts, minds, thoughts and intentions of ALL people! You do not. You must also understand that the famine will extend worldwide. It will not be located only in specific cities, areas, or countries. With the famine, there will be deaths and then pestilences due to these deaths. IAM will give you more specific detail on this soon. FOR NOW YOUR JOB IS TO PREPARE. COME DIRECTLY TO ME WITH YOUR QUESTIONS AS I AM WILL GLADLY ANSWER YOU. MY BELOVED CHILDREN, STAY IN PRAYER TO ME, STAY IN MY WORD, STAY FOCUSED, STAY CALM.

Drs. Kat Talcott and Nita Valikodath join for a journal club episode discussion of three recent publications: Hemorrhagic PVD Follow-Up (https://www.aaojournal.org/article/S0161-6420(25)00791-2/fulltext) GLP-1 Agonists and AMD (https://www.ophthalmologyretina.org/article/S2468-6530(25)00597-4/abstract) Preoperative Anti-VEGF for Diabetic Vitrectomy (https://www.ophthalmologyretina.org/article/S2468-6530(25)00600-1/abstract)
By Bram Duffee, PhD, EMT-P For EMS providers who respond to a traumatic cardiac arrest, the instinct to initiate CPR is almost automatic. But could this life-saving intervention inadvertently hinder recovery in cases of severe hemorrhagic shock? A recent study, “Effect of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation on Perfusion in a Porcine Model of Severe Hemorrhagic Shock,” challenges conventional wisdom and offers new insights that could reshape trauma care protocols. The Study: A Closer Look at CPR in Trauma-Induced PEA The research, led by Dr. Patrick Greiffenstein, professor of clinical surgery at LSU New Orleans and trauma ICU director at the Norman McSwain Spirit of Charity Trauma Center, addresses a critical gap in trauma care. While CPR is a cornerstone of resuscitation in cardiac arrest, its application in trauma-induced pulseless electrical activity (PEA) has not been rigorously validated. Trauma PEA, unlike medical cardiac arrest, is a low-flow state caused by severe blood loss (hypovolemia), where the heart shows electrical activity but fails to generate a palpable pulse. “CPR is a cornerstone of resuscitation and cardiac arrest, but its application in trauma-induced PEA has not really been rigorously evaluated,” explains Dr. Greiffenstein. “Trauma PEA is fundamentally a low-flow state caused by hypovolemia—insufficient blood volume.” The study aimed to determine how CPR affects tissue perfusion—specifically oxygen delivery to the brain and skin—during severe hemorrhagic shock. Using a porcine model, researchers simulated life-threatening blood loss and compared outcomes between two groups: one receiving automated CPR and the other left untreated during the shock phase. Key Findings: When CPR May Do More Harm Than Good The results were both surprising and concerning: No Improvement in Perfusion: CPR did not enhance oxygenation in the brain or skin. In fact, skin perfusion was significantly lower in the CPR group during both the shock and recovery phases. Adverse Hemodynamic Effects: While CPR increased systolic blood pressure (SBP), it significantly reduced diastolic blood pressure (DBP), which is critical for coronary and organ perfusion. Potential Harm: CPR caused a threefold increase in intracranial pressure (ICP), suggesting that chest compressions might disrupt normal blood flow dynamics in the brain. “Knowing now that extreme efforts like lining people up to do CPR can cause turbulence within the system is a significant advancement,” says Dr. Greiffenstein. “It's possible to have perfusion at these unreadable MAP scores, which is a critical insight for trauma care.” Implications for Trauma Care These findings challenge the one-size-fits-all approach to CPR in cardiac arrest scenarios. In cases of hemorrhagic shock, CPR might: Divert attention from more effective interventions, such as rapid blood transfusion or surgical control of bleeding. Worsen perfusion to vital organs, potentially exacerbating the patient's condition. “In military cases, field medics often don't have the opportunity to perform full chest compressions on the battlefield. Sometimes, all they can do is drag a person to a safe position,” notes Dr. Greiffenstein. This study underscores the importance of prioritizing interventions that address the root cause of trauma PEA—severe blood loss—over traditional resuscitation techniques. A Call for Updated Guidelines The American Heart Association's current guidelines broadly recommend CPR for all pulseless patients. However, this study adds to a growing body of evidence suggesting that trauma-induced PEA requires a different approach. By focusing on restoring blood volume and controlling bleeding, paramedics and EMTs can improve outcomes for patients in hemorrhagic shock. As Dr. Greiffenstein puts it, “This research is a step toward more tailored and effective trauma care protocols. It's about understanding the unique physiology of trauma and adapting our interventions accordingly.” For EMS providers on the front lines, this study serves as a reminder to critically evaluate the tools and techniques we rely on in emergency care. While CPR remains a vital intervention in many scenarios, its role in trauma-induced PEA warrants careful reconsideration by physician medical directors. By staying informed about the latest research, we can continue to improve outcomes for the patients who depend on us most.

In this episode of BioTalk, CEO Gerard Eldering explains how Perfusion Medical is addressing a problem that trauma physicians and military medics have been struggling with for decades: capillary compression. Perfusion Medical is developing a drug aimed at treating hemorrhagic shock and other ischemic conditions. PM‑208 is a novel IV therapeutic designed to restore capillary blood flow, resolve ischemia, and protect vital organs. The team has advanced this work with $19 million in Department of Defense funding. He describes the scale of the unmet need, why PM‑208 is both organ- and disease‑agnostic, and how its simple formulation and strong safety profile position it for broad medical use. Eldering also reflects on the company's path through the BioHealth Capital Region Crab Trap Competition. After a second‑place finish a few years earlier, Perfusion Medical returned to the stage and won the 2025 competition. He shares what that experience has meant for the team and why building the company in the BioHealth Capital Region—particularly from a Virginia base—has been a strategic advantage. The conversation moves through the role of early federal funding and programs like SBIR/STTR in de‑risking breakthrough therapies, and how university research partnerships have strengthened PM‑208's development. Eldering highlights how public‑private collaboration has shaped the company's progress and made it possible to push a complex medical solution toward patients more quickly.

In an incredible twist of irony, this month's case focuses on our flight crew loading into their helicopter to be dispatched to... a patient who has fallen out of a helicopter. From a height of approximately 40 feet and at a speed of 30 knots, our patient has an abundance of injuries, which requires our team to remember their axiom: "Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast." This episode also introduces an important question: How do we intervene in different kinds of shock? Our patient had three different kinds: Hemorrhagic, neurogenic, and obstructive shock. Listen in as our guest, along with our panel, deconstructs one of the rarest cases in AMPED history. Interested in obtaining CE credit for this episode? Visit OnlineAscend.com to learn more.

We've managed to get through Marburg so now it is time to discuss Ebola. There are six ebola viruses out there, three of which are most commonly seen infecting humans and we need to cover the similarities in symptoms to Marburg as well as a few differences. For one, Ebola is typically deadlier (especially Zaire Ebola Virus). We are going through the short history of the disease (compared to say, Smallpox) and the first few cases seen in humans. These cases led to outbreaks of what then was a new virus with horrifying symptoms leading to high numbers of casualties and those attempting to treat it in rural African communities had no idea how it spread or how to stop it.

I have been looking forward to sharing the horrors of Marburg and Ebola viruses with you, but there is a lot of info so we are discussing Marburg first then Ebola next week. Just a trigger warning: Some of the descriptions of this virus and what it does to the body may be gruesome. Marburg is relatively new as a virus among humans (compared to others like smallpox or rabies), but it is a monster. It is believed to have originated in Uganda in Africa, perhaps originally transmitted via fruit bats. The world came to know about it, however, during a 1967 outbreak in Germany, brought there by infected monkeys being used at a vaccine company there. It typically starts with a throbbing headache and muscle pains, then soon causes massive clotting then hemorrhaging throughout the body. Obviously the symptoms of such are horrid, and death typically occurs within a few weeks. With an average death rate at 25% (higher in some outbreaks), it has been devastating when outbreaks occur. So let's go into more details about the virus, where the virus came from, its short history thus far, and some significant cases and outbreaks.Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters!

A Blood Biomarker-Based Diagnosis of Reperfused Hemorrhagic ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Predicts Acute Outcomes
Hemorrhagic disease of the newborn (HDNB) was first identified over a century ago, and presents as unexpected bleeding, often with gastrointestinal hemorrhage, ecchymosis and, in many cases, intracranial hemorrhage. In newborns, HDNB is typically caused by vitamin K deficiency as neonates are innately deficient in vitamin K secondary to very little vitamin K transferred through the placenta to fetuses in utero, limited liver storage of vitamin K, and low amounts of vitamin K in breast milk. IM administration of vitamin K for prevention of vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB) has been a standard of care since the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended it in 1961. Despite the success of prevention of VKDB with vitamin K administration, the incidence of VKDB appears to be on the rise. This increase in incidence of VKDB is attributable to parental refusal as well as lowered efficacy of alternate methods of administration. Can parents decline this injection for their babies? In this episode, we will review IM Vit K neonatal administration and discuss the controversial data regarding Vit K oral supplementation.

In this podcast episode, the host discusses the topic of Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease (EHD) and its distinction from Blue Tongue disease. The conversation covers the background and introduction of the topic, the symptoms, and effects of EHD, the spread and transmission of the disease, the seasonal impact on EHD when to worry about animal deaths, and the separation of EHD and Blue Tongue. Takeaways Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease (EHD) is a viral disease that affects ruminant animals, particularly white-tailed deer. Symptoms of EHD include lethargy, disorientation, lameness, excessive salivation, foaming at the mouth, blood discharge from the nose, and sores on the nose and mouth. Gnats and mosquitoes primarily spread EHD, and its transmission decreases in colder weather. Animal deaths in late summer and early fall may be attributed to EHD, but it is not a major concern during winter.
Listen in as we explore the world of military medicine, focusing on hemorrhagic shock and its relationship with damage control surgery and resuscitation. Joined by Colonel Dr. Jeremy Cannon, we unravel the dangers of time and shock to the human body, the importance of whole-blood resuscitation in combat casualty care, and how to diagnose and respond to severe cases of shock. The discussion also brings to light the ABC score, a helpful tool developed by Brian Cotton and Tim Nunez to distinguish between subtle and severe cases of shock. In the second part of our discussion, we tackle the vital role of damage control resuscitation in treating hemorrhagic shock. We talk about the performance measures, the one-to-one-to-one ratio for blood products, the importance of calcium and TXA administration, and the benefits of using whole blood. Joined by Dr. Cannon, we also go through the opening sequence of surgery and the process of packing the four quadrants. As we wrap up, we take a look at the resources available for military surgeons and those interested in military medicine, highlighting WarDocs, a platform that showcases the gripping reality of war and medicine.

Coco Wham is a paramedic at the Denver Health Paramedic Division. She is also a 4th year medical student and has a masters in integrated sciences. She is an author on a recent study in the American Journal of Surgery with our previous guest, Dr. Eric Campion. Their latest study looked at prehospital ETCO2 values and if they were predictive of death and need for massive transfusion as compared to commonly accepted measurements, such as systolic blood pressure and shock index. The new study is titled, "Prehospital ETCO2 is predictive of death in intubated and non-intubated patients." We discuss this study with her and what's next for this research. We also touch on why prehospital providers should get involved with research.
Dr. Eric Campion is an attending trauma surgeon at Denver Health Medical Center in Denver, Colorado. He has several studies published on the utilization of End Tidal CO2 (ETCO2) in critically injured hemorrhagic shock patients. As a former paramedic, Dr. Campion has also been studying this data's application to the prehospital setting. In this episode we discuss the results of two specific studies which lead to his most recent study with Paramedic Courtney "Coco" Wham. There will be a companion episode released later this month!

What do I need to know about strokes?Strokes are largely preventable, and knowing the signs is critical.Strokes are the number five cause of death and a leading cause of disability in the United States. They occur for 2 reasons: a clot or obstruction of blood flow to the brain (called “Ischemic") and when a blood vessel ruptures ("hemorrhagic"). Both cause death in regions of the brain from lack of oxygen and blood flow. Regardless of type, the likelihood is you either know someone or will know someone who suffers a stroke. Fortunately, the American Stroke Association says 80% of strokes are preventable.Senior Services Expert Lori Williams dives into the factors we can control, such as lifestyle, to prevent a stroke. She also shares the signs someone is having a stroke so you can quickly recognize them in your loved one. Noticing these signs are vital – as Lori can attest. This week, she gets personal and shares her own experience over Christmas when her husband Mark, suffered a stroke. You can remember the signs of a stroke with the acronym F.A.S.T.:- F: Face drooping- A: Arm weakness- S: Speech slurring / difficulty- T: Time to call 9-1-1Stroke risk factors include smoking, obesity, high blood pressure, diets high in saturated fat and/or cholesterol, physical inactivity, atrial fibrillation, carotid artery disease, diabetes, race, and more. Risk of stroke also increases with age for both males and females, and if you have family members who had strokes before age 65. Once you have a stroke, you're also more at risk for having more – all the more reason to focus on prevention.As Lori knows firsthand, it can be scary if you're with someone who could be having a stroke. However, knowing the signs can help with quick treatment - especially important if your loved one is having an ischemic stroke, because the hospital can administer a clot-buster medication. If you or your loved one does have a stroke, recovery is possible: the brain can create new pathways to help you regain your abilities. Topics discussed:- Signs of strokes- Ischemic stroke- Hemorrhagic stroke- Stroke risk factors- High blood pressure- Stroke prevention- Clot bustersTakeaways from this episode:- Remember the acronym F.A.S.T.: Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech slurring / difficulty – if those are present, Take action by calling 9-11.- Other signs of a stroke include trouble walking or understanding speech, dizziness, loss of balance, and severe headaches without a clear cause.- Make sure your blood pressure is in the health range, which is under 120/80.- Smoking while on birth control pills greatly increases your risk of stroke.- Race is a risk factor of stroke: African Americans have a much higher risk of dying from a stroke than Caucasians.- Women have more strokes and die from strokes more often than men, though they're usually older when they have their first stroke.

In today's VETgirl online veterinary continuing education podcast, we discuss the occurrence of chronic gastrointestinal (GI) disease following acute hemorrhagic diarrhea syndrome (AHDS) in dogs. AHDS is a common cause of acute GI disease in dogs, and this disease has been linked to alterations in the gut microbiome of affected patients. Impaired epithelial barrier function and dysbiosis during acute intestinal injury have been thought to cause increased immune sensitivity of the GI tract, resulting in chronic enteropathy later in life. For instance, in humans, acute enteropathies are one risk factor for future chronic enteropathies, and this has also been demonstrated in puppies that survive canine parvovirus infections (Klem, Kilian). So, Skotnitzki et al wanted to evaluate this in a study entitled "Frequency of signs of chronic gastrointestinal disease in dogs after an episode of acute hemorrhagic diarrhea."
