Will Sasso joins Steph for a full-blown Canadian summit, and somehow both of them currently have a hole in their foot. Steph and Will get into eating fried chicken with no plate ten feet from Ted Sarandos, shaking Eddie Murphy's hand, Homeland Security opening a sympathy card for Steph's dead dog and slapping a 10% tariff on it, Kids in the Hall supremacy, Will's hammertoe surgery that left him with no knuckles in three toes, landing in a Napoli hospital with an infected foot mid-vacation, his DIY gauze-in-the-hole wound care method (his doctor might hate him), Steph's snapped calf and the hair burrowing into her foot, and Will's buddy's legendary story about passing out cold mid-diarrhea with a metal halo bolted to his broken leg.

What should the public know about the H1N1 influenza virus, and how can people separate evidence-based information from misinformation during a public health event? In this informative episode of The ‘X' Zone, Rob McConnell welcomes physician, author, and healthcare advocate Len Saputo to discuss The Truth Behind H1N1. Dr. Saputo examines the H1N1 influenza pandemic from a medical and public health perspective, discussing how influenza viruses spread, the challenges of responding to emerging infectious diseases, and the importance of reliable scientific information. He also shares his views on healthcare policy, prevention strategies, patient education, and the need for informed decision-making during times of public concern. Throughout the conversation, Rob and Dr. Saputo explore topics including risk communication, vaccination, public health preparedness, and the evolving nature of medical knowledge. Listeners are encouraged to evaluate health information critically, consult qualified healthcare professionals, and understand that medical recommendations may change as new evidence becomes available. Whether you're interested in infectious diseases, public health, preventive medicine, or the history of the H1N1 pandemic, this episode offers a thoughtful discussion about one of the most significant health events of the early 21st century.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

This week's topics include continuing dual antiplatelet therapy after stenting, amyloid depletion in Alzheimer's, infections in US hospitals, and algorithms for diagnosing PE in people with cancer.

In this week's episode, Blood editor Dr. James Griffin interviews Drs. Haris Sohail and Lucas Kühne on their latest articles published in volume 147 issue 21 of Blood. In this CME article titled, "Retrospective, Real-World Study of IV Iron Use to Treat Iron deficiency Anemia During Acute Infection",  Sohail et al show that IV iron given during acute infection with iron deficiency anemia is associated with improved 14-day and 90-day survival as well as hemoglobin recovery. Although this report has the limitations of a retrospective study, these findings challenge current practice and support randomized trials that include patients with infection. In "Revisiting Clinical Response and Refractoriness in Immune Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura", Kühne et al show in a multicenter registry study of 204 patients that refractoriness during caplacizumab treatment in immune TTP is uncommon and, when observed, is typically associated with confounding clinical factors. These findings underscore the importance of careful clinical reassessment and evaluation for alternative etiologies in patients with delayed platelet recovery, rather than attributing such cases to true treatment resistance.

Hannah Calvo, the aesthetician behind Steph's CoolSculpting journey, finally makes it onto the podcast. Steph has been talking about her stomach for years and now the person responsible for fixing it is here to explain exactly how it works. Hannah and Steph get into the science of freezing fat cells, how kids sucking on popsicles literally led to this technology, why you pee and poop the dead fat out, what Kybella does to your chin, laser hair removal gone wrong, people DIYing their own filler at home, the horror story of a woman whose face was filled with mystery cement that no surgeon would touch, and why medical tourism for aesthetics is genuinely terrifying.

Alec Ford, CEO of Karius, has developed an innovative approach to diagnosing infections in immunocompromised patients, using DNA sequencing of blood samples to identify over 1,300 causes of infection within 24 hours. Traditional diagnostic methods rely on hypothesis-driven testing and the cultivation of organisms. At the same time, the Karius approach enables faster, more targeted antibiotic treatment, reduces unnecessary broad-spectrum antibiotics, and can identify infections that may not be included in the initial diagnosis. Time to proper treatment is essential for vulnerable populations, including cancer patients, HIV-positive individuals, organ transplant recipients, and those undergoing autoimmune therapies.  Alec explains, "These are patients going through cancer treatment, patients with HIV, people going through solid organ transplantation, or people being treated assertively with autoimmune therapies for autoimmune disorders, where it may compromise their immune system. That really vulnerable patient is our exclusive focus as a company."   "So, a patient gets admitted to the hospital for an infection. They take a sample of that patient's blood. And what we can do is diagnose over 1,300 causes of infection by sequencing the patient's blood for viruses, parasites, bacteria, and fungi that could threaten the success of their cancer treatment or solid organ transplant. There's never been a test in the history of infectious disease that can test for any DNA-based organism, and we do so. We can return a result 24 hours after we receive the sample."   #Karius #InfectiousDisease #Diagnostics #Metagenomics #MedTech #KariusSpectrum #KariusFocus #NextGenSequencing #ImmunocompromisedCare #Oncology #TransplantMedicine #AntimicrobialStewardship #Genomics #MolecularDiagnostics #KariusTest #PatientSafety #HealthcareInnovation Kariusdx.com  Listen to the podcast here

Infection control is the most important responsibility in every dental practice, yet it is also one of the most misunderstood. Are dental teams truly protecting their patients, or are outdated habits putting safety at risk without anyone realizing it? In this conversation, Tija Hunter, CDA, EFDA, CDIA, CDSO, MADAA joins Kevin Henry to discuss why infection control should always come before productivity, scheduling, or practice growth. They explore the growing challenge of training new dental assistants, the spread of misinformation in dentistry, and why proper education is essential for keeping both patients and dental teams safe. Tija explains how certification in dental infection prevention builds confidence, strengthens careers, and helps establish consistent standards across the profession. The discussion also covers common misconceptions about sterilization, the importance of documentation, understanding state regulations, and why continuous education is one of the best investments any dental assistant can make. Whether you are new to dentistry or an experienced professional, this episode highlights why infection control remains the foundation of quality patient care.

Current Lyme disease tests look for antibodies produced by the immune system in response to Borrelia burgdorferi bacteria transmitted to humans by infected blacklegged ticks. My guest today says, "The problem is that these antibodies don't have the right characteristics to be clinically useful". New research led by Tufts University School of Medicine suggests that a group of immune molecules called anti-lipid antibodies may address these shortcomings. Joining me today do discuss this problem and the potential solution is Peter Gwynne, Phd. Dr Gwynne is a research assistant professor at Tufts University School of Medicine and the senior author of the new paper published in the journal, Infection and Immunity.   Antiphospholipid antibodies in acute and post-treatment Lyme disease

The McGraw Show 7-10-26: Little House, Sunflowers, Mitch, Joan VonDras & Parasitic Infections by

Infections with cyclospora, a parasite that spreads through raw produce and causes severe “explosive” diarrhea, are on the rise in multiple states. Michigan, Ohio, North Carolina, New York, Texas and Illinois are among the hardest-hit states by the stomach bug, which usually increases during the warmer months in the United States. What is cyclosporiasis? It's caused by a parasite and spreads through contaminated fresh produce. The most common symptom of cyclosporiasis is sudden, watery explosive diarrhea, severe stomach cramps, vomiting, nausea, loss of appetite, and fatigue.

Marc Maron stops by Steph Infection and immediately makes himself at home, which means an hour of medical anxiety, body scan results, and somehow ending on a book of gangrenous cock illustrations.

What if the fatigue, brain fog, and infections you've been fighting for years all trace back to the same root - a gut that never had a chance to recover?In this episode of Integrative Lyme Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Donna Gates, author of The Body Ecology Diet and founder of Body Ecology, to cover a lot of ground: long COVID, Lyme disease, candida, biofilms, autism, and why fermented foods do something no probiotic capsule can replicate. Donna shares her own decades-long journey through antibiotic-induced illness, yeast overgrowth, and a recent long-haul COVID experience that sent her back to the drawing board - and ultimately led to her new book, Taming the Dragon. The conversation gets into why Lyme and candida are so resistant to treatment, how biofilms protect pathogens from the immune system, the surprising role of fermented vegetables in nasal health, and what the diversity inside a single head of cabbage has to do with your brain function. If you or someone you love is dealing with a chronic infection and not getting answers, this episode is worth your full attention.Key Takeaways:0:00 Introduction 1:51 How the Body Ecology Diet started with a yeast infection and a chance meeting 6:09 Why the inner ecosystem concept predated the term gut microbiome by 12 years 15:00 Long COVID as a chronic viral flare and how the antiviral diet works18:00 Taming the dragon: keeping viruses dormant through an alkaline mineral-rich body 22:00 Fermented vegetables and the histamine myth most people get wrong 29:23 Lyme and candida both hide behind biofilms and why antibiotics alone fail 36:05 Fermented vegetable juice in your nose to break up nasal biofilmSchedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902Resources:Body Ecology - https://www.bodyecology.com Taming the Dragon by Donna Gates - https://www.bodyecology.com (available on Kindle) The Body Ecology Diet by Donna Gates - https://www.amazon.com The Yeast Connection by Dr. William Crook - https://www.amazon.com MAPS (Medical Academy of Pediatric Special Needs) - https://www.medmaps.org Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

Cuts and lacerations are among the most common injuries encountered in the backcountry, but in wilderness medicine the greatest threat often isn't the wound itself—it's infection. In this episode of the AWLS Wilderness Medicine Podcast, we explore why nearly every wilderness wound should be considered contaminated and why thorough irrigation and cleaning are often far more important than closing the skin. Through real-world wilderness cases, listeners will learn when wounds should be left open, why premature suturing can trap bacteria and lead to serious infections, and how proper wound care can make the difference between an uncomplicated recovery and a medical evacuation. Whether you're a backpacker, climber, guide, first responder, or wilderness medicine provider, this episode offers practical, evidence-based principles for managing wounds safely when definitive medical care may be hours or days away.

Show Notes HOST Melody Hartzler | | Book Appointment In Today's Episode In this episode of Table Talk, Melody sits down with Dr. Liam LaTouche, a naturopathic physician specializing in complex chronic illness, chronic infections, mold toxicity, and post-viral conditions. Dr. Liam shares how his mother's mysterious neurological illness sparked his passion for root-cause medicine and led him to work with patients struggling with chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, chemical sensitivities, Lyme disease, mold exposure, and other difficult-to-diagnose conditions. Together, they explore why so many patients fall through the cracks of conventional healthcare, the role chronic infections and toxic exposures play in ongoing inflammation, and the foundational strategies that must be addressed before pursuing advanced detoxification or treatment protocols. This conversation offers practical insights for both practitioners and individuals seeking answers to complex chronic health challenges. Key Take Aways Chronic illness is often driven by multiple overlapping factors, including infections, mold exposure, toxic burden, trauma, and nervous system dysregulation. Functional medicine focuses on uncovering the root causes of chronic inflammation rather than simply managing symptoms. Mold exposure and nervous system dysfunction are often priority issues that must be addressed before deeper infection protocols can be effective. Foundational healing practices such as improving lymphatic drainage, bowel function, movement, and stress regulation are critical before advanced interventions. Post-viral illnesses, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and dysautonomia deserve greater awareness, validation, and research support. Topics Discussed 00:00 – Welcome to Table Talk Introduction to today's discussion on chronic infections and complex chronic illness. 00:00:58 – Dr. Liam's Journey into Naturopathic Medicine How his mother's undiagnosed neurological condition inspired his path into functional and root-cause medicine. 00:03:25 – Understanding Complex Chronic Illness Why patients with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and unexplained symptoms often struggle to find answers. 00:08:08 – The Three Drivers of Chronic Disease Exploring trauma, infections, toxic exposures, and the factors that keep inflammation active. 00:09:35 – Chronic Infections, Mold & Environmental Triggers How Dr. Liam evaluates patients for infections, mycotoxins, Lyme disease, and toxic burden. 00:11:32 – Trauma, Limbic System Dysfunction & Healing The connection between nervous system dysregulation, chemical sensitivities, and recovery. 00:14:03 – Treatment Priorities: What Comes First? Why mold exposure, trauma, and chronic immune activation often need to be addressed before deeper detoxification. 00:16:00 – Mold Testing & Mycotoxin Assessment How functional medicine practitioners evaluate mold exposure and determine treatment approaches. 00:20:57 – The Role of Functional Testing When lab testing is helpful and why foundational health still matters most. 00:23:04 – The Foundations of Healing Essential lifestyle and structural interventions that support recovery before advanced protocols. 00:29:37 – Supporting Lymphatic Drainage The importance of movement, lymph flow, and drainage techniques in chronic illness recovery. 00:30:33 – Addressing Digestive Function & Constipation Why healthy bowel function is a critical part of detoxification and healing. 00:42:25 – Dysautonomia, Hypermobility & Connective Tissue Health Exploring overlooked contributors to chronic symptoms and autonomic dysfunction. 00:44:29 – The Future of Post-Viral Research Why long COVID, post-viral fatigue, POTS, and immune dysregulation are finally receiving attention. 00:45:15 – Closing Thoughts & Resources Where to learn more about Dr. Liam's work and upcoming educational opportunities.

Dr. Mike is back with a bonus episode nobody scheduled, because the screwworm did not check our calendar. The New World screwworm has arrived in the United States for the first time in sixty years, confirmed in Texas and New Mexico, with a quarantine zone now covering fourteen Texas counties. While livestock take the hardest hit, cats are absolutely at risk, because the fly lays her eggs in any open wound, and even a small scratch or post-surgical incision is enough of an invitation. The saving grace is that a year of preparation preceded this moment, with FDA emergency use authorizations now covering cats, including Credelio Cat and NexGard COMBO, and most recently a generic over-the-counter nitenpyram option that kills larvae within hours. Dr. Mike explains what living in the affected zone actually means for your cat, and whether the screwworm's steady northward march through Central America and Mexico is likely to continue up the map. We also cover the other infection keeping feline medicine on its toes: H5N1 in cats. More than 130 feline cases of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 have been confirmed across the United States, from barn cats to strictly indoor pets, and cats appear to be exquisitely sensitive to the virus. The mortality rate sits somewhere between fifty and seventy percent, and whether infected cats can pass the virus to other cats remains an open and uncomfortable question. Two infections, one episode, and a very compelling argument for keeping your cat's wounds clean and your raw milk off the menu. Do not miss this one.miss.Thanks for tuning in to the Purr Podcast with Dr. Susan and Dr. Jolle!If you enjoyed today's episode, don't forget to subscribe, rate, and leave us a review—it really helps other cat lovers and vet nerds find the show.

Dr. Falk breaks down the absolute minimalist kit that actually works in austere and combat environments: canine tourniquets for toddlers, the single blue IO you really need, simplified airway choices, push-pull resuscitation with a syringe and stopcock, and a field-expedient needle cric setup.Then he walks through three real cases that expose the brutal decision-making required in prolonged field care:A 4-year-old pulled from rubble with a head injury who decompensates from rising ICPAn 8-year-old with a penetrating chest wound and tension pneumothorax at the thoracoabdominal junctionA 4-year-old with an infected blast wound fracture who develops septic shock days later in a denied environmentYou'll learn weight-based dosing that actually works in the field, why kids decompensate differently, how to mix and run an epinephrine drip with limited supplies, the realities of black-tagging children in mass casualty events, and why these cases stay with providers long after the mission.Key Takeaways:The truly minimalist pediatric kit that won't break your weight limitPractical field management of rising ICP when you have no CT or neurosurgeryPush-pull volume resuscitation and epinephrine drip mixing for pediatric shockWhy penetrating trauma at the 6th–7th rib level is often thoracoabdominalThe emotional and ethical weight of black-tagging kids — and why you must train itMalnutrition's hidden impact on wound healing and sepsis in prolonged scenariosChapters00:00 - Welcome & Why Most Medics Are Unprepared for Pediatric Patients00:57 - The Bare Essential Pediatric Combat Medic Bag02:25 - Canine Tourniquet for Under-2s & Minimalist Hemorrhage Control02:25 - Vascular Access: Why the Blue IO is Usually All You Need03:22 - Simplified Airway: OPAs, NPAs & i-gel Sizes That Actually Matter03:22 - ET Tubes: Why Only 4.0, 5.0 & 6.0 Cuffed Are Necessary04:24 - Push-Pull Resuscitation Technique (Syringe + Stopcock)04:56 - Needle Cricothyrotomy Setup & Critical I:E Ratio Warning07:09 - Case 1 Begins: 4-Year-Old Blast Victim Pulled from Rubble08:47 - Initial Assessment, C-Spine Considerations in Kids & Access12:16 - GCS 11, Pain Control & Why Fluids Make Sense Early14:17 - Hours Later: Decompensation & Rising ICP18:17 - Positioning, Hypertonic Saline Dosing (5 mL/kg) & Decision to Intubate23:13 - Ketamine-Only Intubation, Permissive Hyperventilation & Realities27:51 - The Emotional Toll: Black Tagging Kids in MCI29:44 - Case 2: 8-Year-Old with Right Chest GSW & Tension Pneumothorax31:36 - Chest Seal + Needle Decompression (Anterior Approach Preference)34:23 - Blood Resuscitation (10 mL/kg) & Why Location Matters (Diaphragm Level)40:20 - Case 3: 4-Year-Old with Infected Blast Wound Fracture – Septic Shock42:51 - Broad-Spectrum Antibiotics & Source Control in Denied Environments45:26 - Push-Pull Boluses, Epinephrine Drip Mixing & Permissive Hypotension51:09 - Malnutrition's Impact on Healing & Infection in Prolonged Care56:49 - Final Lessons: Training Black Tags, Calling for Help & Provider PTSD57:32 - Outro & Where to Find More PFC ContentFor more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠

What happens when we stop looking at Japanese knotweed as a problem to solve and start looking at it as a teacher?Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) is often used as a go-to herb for Lyme disease, but in this fascinating conversation, herbalist Emily French invites us to see this remarkable plant through a much wider lens. From chronic inflammation and joint pain to menstrual stagnation, skin care, and beyond, Emily shares why knotweed has become one of her most trusted herbal allies—and why reducing it to a single use misses the bigger picture entirely.Along the way, we explore knotweed's role as a blood-moving herb, its powerful anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, and the surprising ways it supports both ecological and personal healing. Emily also offers thoughtful reflections on knotweed's controversial reputation, revealing how this much-maligned plant may have more to teach us about cooperation, resilience, and reciprocity than many of us realize.Japanese knotweed also makes a delicious wild food! Emily has shared her recipe for Strawberry Rhubarb Knotweed Galette, a rustic dessert that transforms young knotweed shoots into a memorable seasonal treat. You can download your copy here.By the end of this episode, you'll know:► Over fifteen medicinal benefits of knotweed (far beyond just being a “Lyme herb”!)► Three tips for harvesting knotweed roots► The fascinating ways that knotweed helps prevent Lyme-causing bacteria from taking hold► When to use the roots of knotweed—and when the leaves and stems are best► What makes this plant such an amazing ally for burns, bruises, and sprains► and so much more…For those of you who don't know her, Emily French is a clinical and traditional herbalist who works 1:1 with clients and also teaches about herbalism online and in her 3 year herbal apprenticeship. Her work revolves around her love for reconnecting people with the sophisticated art and science of plant-based healing that we've all known, somewhere in our bones, for thousands of years. She is a passionate and intuitive herbalist, educator, wildcrafter, farmer, medicine maker, and mama. With over 20 years of clinical experience, Emily has a broad understanding of both acute and chronic health issues, and of working with the healing plants to help people move toward balance and vitality.Emily's passion for Japanese knotweed is contagious!

Daniel Sloss rolls into Steph Infection still recovering from American bar pours, turns out 5 gin and tonics in the US is not the same as 5 gin and tonics in Scotland, and he has learned this the hard way. Steph and Daniel bond hard over Highland dancing (for real), Scottish country dancing as a pickup culture, having a best bitch at your wedding, and why the Edinburgh Fringe would absolutely lose its mind if Steph showed up. Then it gets real as Daniel walks through both of his kids' births in full detail, including his wife losing 1.5 liters of blood, a stuck placenta, an hour and a half alone with a newborn not knowing if his wife was alive, and his wife shockingly coming back into the room like "let's have two more." He has not forgiven her.

In this episode of The Health Revival Show, I tackle the persistent issues of SIBO, EBV, and recurring infections that plague so many of you. If you've been struggling with these health challenges, you might be wondering why they keep returning despite your best efforts. The truth is, the infections themselves are often not the primary problem; rather, the focus should be on your immune system's ability to resolve these infections. I delve into the importance of immune regulation, the role of nutrients like vitamin D, and how chronic inflammation can lead to a breakdown in immune function. Join me as we explore actionable strategies to rebuild your immune health, so you can finally break the cycle of recurring symptoms and reclaim your vitality.

It's hospital day five. The patient looked better yesterday… but now she's hypotensive, on vasopressors, acidotic, and spiraling toward multi-organ failure. The CT scan doesn't show perforation or megacolon, but your gut tells you this is going south. Do you keep pushing medical therapy… or is it time to operate?Join Drs. Rushabh Dev, Jeffrey Coughenour, Kevin Bartow, Raymond Okeke, and Desra Fletcher from the Emergency General Surgery team in Tiger Country at Mizzou as they tackle one of the deadliest and most challenging diseases acute care surgeons face: fulminant Clostridioides difficile infection. In this Clinical Challenges episode, the panel discusses diagnostic stewardship, ASCRS recommendations, timing of operative intervention and technique, subtotal colectomy versus diverting loop ileostomy with lavage, and physiology that should push surgeons toward definitive source control. Through a real-world high-risk case vignette, the team explores the hardest question in emergency general surgery: when to stop hoping medical therapy will work and pull the operative trigger.Hosts Dr. Rushabh Dev FACS (Moderator, Surgical Attending) – Assistant Professor of Surgery, Associate PD ACS & SCCM Fellowship, SICU Medical Director, Lieutenant Commander United States Navy Reserve  Dr. Jeffery Coughenour FACS (Surgical Attending) – Professor of Surgery and Emergency Medicine, Trauma Medical Director at the University of Missouri SOM Dr. Kevin Bartow FACS (Surgical Attending) –Professor of Surgery, Minimally Invasive Surgeon and General Surgery. Department of General Surgery at the University of Missouri SOM Raymond Okeke – Acute Care Surgery/Surgical Critical Care Fellow, University of Missouri School of Medicine  Desra Fletcher – PGY 3 General Surgery Resident, University of Missouri School of Medicine  Learning ObjectivesBy the end of this episode, listeners should be able to: Define the spectrum of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI), including non-severe, severe, and fulminant disease, and recognize the physiologic implications of fulminant colitis.  Review contemporary diagnostic stewardship for CDI, including appropriate stool testing, pitfalls of PCR/NAAT interpretation, and the role and limitations of CT imaging in fulminant disease.  Describe evidence-based medical management of fulminant CDI, including high-dose enteral vancomycin, intravenous metronidazole, rectal vancomycin for ileus, and principles of antimicrobial stewardship.  Recognize the high-risk clinical features that should prompt urgent surgical evaluation, including worsening shock, vasopressor dependence, lactate elevation, organ failure, and evolving abdominal exam findings.  Discuss the operative indications and timing for surgery in fulminant CDI and understand why delayed intervention contributes to mortality.  Compare subtotal colectomy with end ileostomy versus diverting loop ileostomy with antegrade lavage, including current evidence, patient selection, limitations of the literature, and ASCRS recommendations.  Review practical operative strategies for subtotal colectomy in unstable patients, including damage-control principles and common technical pitfalls.  Apply clinical reasoning to a complex, high-risk case of fulminant CDI in a patient with decompensated cirrhosis, septic shock, and multi-organ dysfunction.  References ASCRS Clinical Practice Guidelines for *Clostridioides difficile* Infection (2021)  Surgical Management of *Clostridium difficile* Colitis — Neal et al., 2011 (Loop Ileostomy + Lavage Protocol)  Clinical Practice Guidelines for *Clostridioides difficile* Infection in Adults and Children (IDSA/SHEA, 2021 Update)  Adjunctive Hyperbaric Oxygen and Surgical Outcomes in Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infections (Background discussion of severe infection physiology)  Total Abdominal Colectomy Versus Diverting Loop Ileostomy for Fulminant CDI — Systematic Review & Meta-analysis  Current Status of Surgical Therapy for Fulminant *Clostridioides difficile* Colitis  Behind the Knife Episode 648 – Emergency General Surgery Journal Review: *Clostridioides difficile* Infection  Bottom line: Fulminant C. diff is one of the few EGS diseases where the hardest decision is not what operation to perform — it's recognizing when medical therapy has failed before the patient becomes unsalvageable.Please visit https://behindtheknife.org to access other high-yield surgical education podcasts, videos and more.  If you liked this episode, check out our recent episodes here: https://behindtheknife.org/listenBehind the Knife Premium: https://behindtheknife.org/premiumOral Board Review: https://behindtheknife.org/oral-boardOral Board Simulator: https://behindtheknife.org/oral-board/simulatorGeneral Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/general-surgery-oral-board-reviewTrauma Surgery Video Atlas: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/trauma-surgery-video-atlasDominate Surgery: A High-Yield Guide to Your Surgery Clerkship: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/dominate-surgery-a-high-yield-guide-to-your-surgery-clerkshipDominate Surgery for APPs: A High-Yield Guide to Your Surgery Rotation: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/dominate-surgery-for-apps-a-high-yield-guide-to-your-surgery-rotationVascular Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/vascular-surgery-oral-board-reviewColorectal Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/colorectal-surgery-oral-board-reviewSurgical Oncology Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/surgical-oncology-oral-board-reviewCardiothoracic Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/cardiothoracic-surgery-oral-board-reviewDownload our App:Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/behind-the-knife/id1672420049Android/Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.btk.app&hl=en_US

This Skeptical Sunday, Jessica Wynn explains how dialysis became a $50B industry where under 40% of patients survive five painful years of dependence.Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by writer and researcher Jessica Wynn!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1336On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:Dialysis is a life-sustaining external filtration system for the roughly 800,000 Americans in kidney failure — but it's grueling. Most patients endure three to five hours per session, three times a week, indefinitely, and fewer than 40% survive beyond five years.The financial structure is staggering. Dialysis is a $50 billion-a-year US industry, with Medicare spending about $36 billion annually — roughly 7% of its entire budget for under 1% of the population. Two companies, DaVita and Fresenius, control about 70% of all clinics.The system rewards permanence over cure. Since 1972, Medicare has covered kidney failure for everyone regardless of age, creating guaranteed, indefinite revenue. Transplants and home dialysis are cheaper and better for patients, yet under-incentivized because they cost providers customers.The human and safety toll is severe. Infections cause 36% of dialysis deaths, sepsis mortality runs 100 to 300 times higher than average, and understaffing worsens outcomes. Many patients lose their jobs, mobility, and social lives — some choose to stop treatment entirely.The hopeful part: much kidney disease is preventable or delayable, and you have real power here. Manage diabetes and hypertension aggressively, get your kidneys checked with a simple blood and urine test, and see a nephrologist early — catching it sooner can dramatically slow progression.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.
