In Episode 167 of The Intentional Clinician podcast, Paul Krauss MA LPC interviews child psychiatrist Dr. Frank Putnam, MD about his groundbreaking assertion that prevention of child maltreatment is the single most powerful way to improve the mental and physical health of our nation. The conversation likely explores Dr. Putnam's decades of research through the Female Growth and Development Study (FGDS), which has followed sexual abuse survivors for over 35 years and revealed that childhood sexual abuse causes accelerated biological aging, increasing the risk for early onset of physical and mental conditions usually associated with late life. Drawing from his new book *Old Before Their Time*, Dr. Putnam discusses how childhood maltreatment is the largest preventable cause of certain major mental illnesses, interpersonal violence, and much hard drug abuse, while addressing the wide-ranging mental, physical, and social consequences that extend across generations. Dr. Frank W. Putnam, MD, is a professor of clinical psychiatry at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine and an emeritus professor of pediatrics and child psychiatry at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center. He co-founded the pioneering Female Growth and Development Study (FGDS) in 1987 with the late Dr. Penelope K. Trickett, a longitudinal study that has followed female incest victims and comparison groups across three generations for over 35 years. His latest book, Old Before Their Time: A Scientific Life Investigating How Maltreatment Harms Children and the Adults They Become is part memoir and part call to action that provides an inside look at his distinguished career documenting the long-term consequences of childhood maltreatment.

Dr. Joel Berg is joined once again by Dr. Scott Schwartz, this time to tackle how candidates can best prepare for the Residency application process. Dr. Schwartz emphasizes the importance of considering the “obvious questions,” like which type of program is the best fit for your future professional aspirations and learning style. He shares ways that candidates can put their best foot forward, including a letter of recommendation from a mentor in the specialty or a unique personal experience statement that demonstrates who you are as a professional and team member – even if it's outside the sphere of dentistry. Success is often found in the commonly overlooked details. Guest Bio: Scott B. Schwartz, DDS, MPH, is an Associate Professor at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center in the Division of Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, where he also serves as Director of the Advanced Education in Pediatric Dentistry training program. After graduating from the University of Illinois – Chicago College of Dentistry, he completed a General Practice Residency at The Ohio State University. Continuing his journey to the Southeast, he obtained a certificate in pediatric dentistry and a Master of Public Health in Health Policy and Management at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Professionally, he has a strong focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and has served on related committees with the American Dental Education Association, the Cincinnati Children's Graduate Medical Education DEI subcommittee, and written extensively about the topic in both editorial and research publications.

The title of this symposium, Catching the Clues, Changing the Cause of Lysosomal Storage Disease: Illuminating Complex Pathway of Rare Disease with Fabry Disease, Alpha-Mannosidosis, in Focus.This is a disclaimer: Following discussion does not focus on or depict any specific products manufactured by any pharmaceutical company. Patient cases are for medical discussion only and reflect the faculty own experience. They represent a typical clinical scenario. This presentation in part and whole may not be reproduced and not copy and not recording.I'm Dr. Eto from Tokyo, Japan, and the three distinguished speakers: Dr. Nicole Muschol from Germany, Eppendorf University. Professor Aguiar, the Portuguese, The Inborn Errors of Metabolism Reference Center, and also Professor Robert Hopkin, Cincinnati Children's Hospital, United States.The purpose of this symposium: Explore the patient journey across the LSD continuum, focusing on the unmet needs and diagnosis, and treatment initiation, and long-term management, and utilize case-based discussion focused on Alpha-mannosidosis, Fabry disease to highlight disease-specific challenges. Access where challenge persist in patient journey, and where tailored intervention can improve outcomes.Introduction of LSD patient journey with a spotlight on Fabry disease, Alpha-mannosidosis. Challenge to the diagnosis and then treatment and monitoring. Common LSD challenges over the patient journey, as shown here, and at least more than 70 different lysosomal diseases known. Incidence is about 1:5,000-1:8,000 in newborn. In the literature, much higher incidence.Multi-organ manifestation in many organ involved, and clinical heterogeneity are very complicated. The new screen method has been established already. Identify patient presymptomatically. That important by the newborn screening, something like that, early treatment essential. After the diagnosis treatment start, early and the presymptomatic treatment initiation, and usually delayed diagnosis, delayed treatment. Perceived burden of treatment may delay treatment start in patient milder form. Milder form is very difficult in the many cases, and particularly for Fabry disease also.After the treatment start and then monitoring, as you know, we discussed about the monitoring rely on the combination of clinical assessment, laboratory test, biomarkers, and imaging, and several other factors. Biomarkers and ADA drug assay lack standardization. Actually, the Alpha, and Beta, or [inaudible 00:03:19] Fabry disease, different ADA-titled measurement. Also, the patient experience between clinical visit, ERT infusion is under-reported.We discuss today two topics, two disease. Alpha-mannosidosis is very rare. In Japan, only few cases, and caused by the deficiency of Alpha-mannosidase, an accumulation of mannose-rich oligosaccharides and inheritance of autosomal-recessive. Age of onset is a very early period and younger period, adult period. Incidence approximately is very rare, 1:500,000.There are diseases we don't know exactly. If you have a treatment, maybe your incidence is much increased, and severe or attenuated [inaudible 00:04:09]. Alpha-mannosidosis is still a new disorder, and must differentiate from Mucopolysaccharidosis.On the other hand, the Fabry disease I think is very common. There are many discussion already in the past 20 years. Deficiency of a-Gal A, accumulation of Gb3⁵ or Lyso-Gb3, many other glycoprotein, which a terminal of a-Gal A, and X-chromosome. This is very important X-chromosomal inheritance. In case of this, and usually, female does not affect, but in case of Fabry, more of female also involved.First symptom, imagine at any age. Then incidence about 1:40,000-1:60,000. But depending on the country, as you know, classical form, about 1:40,000. Recently, after the newborn screening, late onset, very high incidence. About 90% of it—actually, we carried out a newborn screening in Japan—90% are late onset. But the clinical variety, so many clinical varieties, so incidents here, 1:3,000-1:4,000, something like that. Now, using the Alpha-mannosidosis and Fabry disease as an illustrative example, we will explore these disorders.

Season 2, Episode 14Guest: Amy Wilson — Nurse & Higher-Ed Simulation Specialist; youth fencing parent; advocate for neurodivergent athletesWhat we coverWhy “calm down” isn't a strategy: replacing emotions (anger → engagement, under-arousal → activation)Fencing's unique demands: fast decisions, constant stimuli, and doing it alone on the stripThe concept: regulate first, then choose to go explosive (“pull the pin on purpose”)Early warning signs of dysregulation: posture shifts, breath changes, jittering, gear fidgetingPrevention beats cleanup: proactive routines that keep athletes near the “middle” zoneWhy fencing can be great for neurodivergent athletes (stimulus, boundaries, cross-body movement)Parent–coach partnership: advocacy without power struggles; translating coach feedbackTools that work: visual charts, nonverbal cues, brief written notes, peer feedback, snacks/hydrationEmergency resets (when the fuse pops): safe sensory “pattern interrupts” and fast re-engagementEnvironment tactics: control what you can control without over-calming a kid who needs to competePractical toolkitObserve first: posture, breath, timing, self-touching (e.g., body cord)Visual feedback card (12 simple icons): on-target, watched lights, stayed centered, didn't fall, breath, etc. Use silent hash marks during bouts and review between.Between bouts script: “Does your body need anything?” (water, snack, bathroom, hug) → “Do you want feedback?”Proactive role-play at home: rehearse day-of scenarios and the visual card so it's familiarBreak-glass reset options: cold/ice in hand, pleasant sensory (safe “treat”), quick drawing/notes—replace the feeling, don't debate itParent self-care & coverage: tag-team when possible so your presence stays steady and usefulTimestamps0:00 — Why “regulate, then explode” beats “calm down”1:18 — Bringing nursing/simulation methods to the strip2:52 — What makes fencing uniquely tough for kids' regulation3:12 — Emotional regulation vs. “be calm”4:30 — Early signs of drifting out of the optimal zone5:53 — “Pull the pin on purpose” explained7:05 — Why intervene; what's at risk if we don't11:05 — Why fencing can be great for neurodivergent athletes14:46 — How to start: observe, map home strategies → strip strategies18:31 — Partnering with coaches; translating instruction23:51 — Visual tools (the 12-icon card) and peer evaluations29:50 — When the fuse pops: safe sensory interrupts and quick resets32:08 — Controlling what you can control without over-calming38:14 — Quick hits for parents: what to pack, what to say (and avoid), how to check inQuotable“Don't calm it away—regulate it and then pull the pin on purpose.” — Amy Wilson“The loudest thing at a tournament isn't the beeping—it's a kid's negative thought loop.” — Amy WilsonCall to actionTry one tool at your next practice or tournament: a simple 6–12 icon feedback card, the two-question check-in (“Does your body need anything?” / “Do you want feedback?”), or a pre-planned sensory reset.

In this impactful episode of the ConCensis podcast, host Yasmeen Hassan sits down with Robby Miller, Sterile Processing Manager at St. Joseph's Hospital Medical Center, to explore how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing the field of sterile processing. With nearly 30 years of experience in healthcare, Miller shares his journey from EMT to SPD leader, offering a candid look at how technology like CensisAI² is elevating efficiency, quality, and patient safety in surgical environments.Miller unpacks the evolving challenges in sterile processing—from regulatory compliance to managing increasingly complex surgical instruments—and explains how AI-driven tools are helping teams deliver cleaner, safer, and more reliable results. He also discusses the vital role of leadership in building processes, setting KPIs, and fostering a culture of continuous learning across healthcare teams.Key Takeaways:CensisAI² enables real-time tracking, performance coaching, and better compliance by transforming departmental data into actionable insights, allowing SPD leaders to fine-tune staffing, productivity, and tray quality with confidence.AI is helping reduce instrument errors and boost quality assurance by identifying trends in missing instruments, monitoring staff accuracy, and enabling predictive resource planning for high-volume surgical schedules.The future of sterile processing lies in automation and standardization, where tools like CensisAI² will support leaner tray assemblies, streamlined training for new technicians, and aggregated IFU data to ensure safer reprocessing at scale.Technology is most effective when paired with human leadership and clear communication, with Miller emphasizing the importance of educating staff on both the “how” and the “why” to drive successful tech adoption and buy-in.As sterile processing continues to evolve, Miller's insights highlight how AI can serve as an extension—not a replacement—of the skilled technicians behind the scenes. Through smart deployment and a commitment to excellence, the future of surgical safety looks brighter, more efficient, and more connected than ever.

Click here to send us a topic idea or question for Weekend Wisdom.Are you considering adopting or fostering a child who was exposed prenatally to opioids or opioid-use treatment medication, such as Buprenorphine, methadone, and Suboxone? Are you a grandparent or aunt raising a child who was exposed? Join our discussion with Dr. Jennifer McAllister, the Medical Director of the NOWS Follow-Up Clinic at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center and the Medical Director of the University of Cincinnati Newborn Nursery.In this episode, we discuss:Terminology: What is the difference between opiates and opioids?What are the most common opioids being abused?What are the common treatment medications/drugs given to those with opioid use disorder? What are the brand names for these medications?How do these medications work?Are substance-use medications safe to use during pregnancy?What are the short- and long-term impacts on infants exposed to opioids?What are the short- and long-term impacts of infants exposed to opioid-use medications in pregnancy? Do the impacts differ?Does the dosage of opioid-use medications change the impact they have on the baby?What are the short- and long-term impacts of infants exposed to fentanyl in pregnancy?Is there a safer time for a fetus to be exposed to opioids or opioid-use medications in utero?Is it true that if the child is not born experiencing signs of withdrawal or with drugs in their system, the prognosis is better? Or conversely, if the child is born dependent and has to go through withdrawals, they will suffer more impact from in-utero drug exposure?How dangerous is drug dependency and withdrawal for the infant?How are Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) and Neonatal Opioid Withdrawal Syndrome (NOWS) treated in babies?If a mom is taking opioid-use medications during her pregnancy, is it recommended that she breastfeed the infant to help with withdrawal?
