In dieser Podcast-Folge geht es um die aufregende Vorliebe der Dilatoren-Spiele im BDSM. Ich erkläre, was genau Dilatoren sind, warum sie einen besonderen Reiz ausüben, und wie man sie sicher und lustvoll verwendet. Außerdem beleuchte ich die verschiedenen Formen, Materialien und Anwendungsmöglichkeiten sowie die wichtigen Aspekte rund um Hygiene und Sicherheit. Lass uns gemeinsam in dieses spannende Thema eintauchen.ShownotesWelches Gleitmittel kannst du denn nun verwenden? Bei der Verwendung von Dilatoren ist die Wahl des richtigen Gleitmittels entscheidend für Komfort und Effektivität. Folgende Punkte solltest du beachten: Wasserbasierte Gleitmittel: Diese sind am besten geeignet, da sie die empfindlichen Schleimhäute nicht reizen und leicht abwaschbar sind. Sie hinterlassen keine Rückstände und sind mit allen Arten von Dilatoren (einschließlich Silikon) kompatibel. Keine Zusatzstoffe: Wähle ein Gleitmittel ohne Parfüme, Farbstoffe oder potenziell reizende Chemikalien. Hypoallergene Produkte sind besonders empfehlenswert. Silikonbasierte Gleitmittel vermeiden: Diese können in einigen Fällen mit Silikondilatoren reagieren und die Oberfläche beschädigen. PH-neutral und frei von Glycerin: Ein pH-neutraler Wert schützt die natürliche Balance der Vaginalflora. Glycerin kann bei einigen Menschen zu Reizungen oder Pilzinfektionen führen und sollte daher vermieden werden. Test auf Verträglichkeit: Vor der regelmäßigen Anwendung solltest du das Gleitmittel an einer kleinen Hautstelle testen, um sicherzugehen, dass keine allergischen Reaktionen auftreten. Medizinische Produkte: Einige Gleitmittel sind speziell für medizinische Anwendungen entwickelt und bieten zusätzliche Feuchtigkeitsspender, die die Heilung fördern und die Anwendung angenehmer machen. Wir benutzen in Domina-Studios gern Endosgel. Das wird in der Medizin auch für Katheter verwendet. Hierbei musst du aber bedenken, dass darin leichte Betäubung drin ist und somit der Schwanz zB betäubt ist und ein Orgasmus somit schwieriger wird OptiLube™ Ein steriles, wasserlösliches und pH-neutrales Gleitmittel ohne aktive Inhaltsstoffe, ideal für Patienten mit Allergien oder Unverträglichkeiten. Gelicain® Gleitgel Ein wasserlösliches, klares Gel mit lokalanästhetischer und antiseptischer Wirkung, das Lidocain und Chlorhexidin enthält. Orgasmusschwierigkeit K-Y Gleitgel Steril Ein wasserbasiertes, geruchsneutrales Gleitgel in steriler Verpackung, geeignet für medizinische Anwendungen und kompatibel mit Kondomen. Aqua-Gel Ein Gleitmittel für die schonende Intubation, abgepackt in praktischen Portionsbeuteln zu je 5 g.

Abby and Patrick welcome psychoanalyst and author Jamieson Webster to discuss her brand-new book, On Breathing: Care in a Time of Catastrophe, out in March 2025 from Catapult. It's a wide-ranging conversation that traverses clinical, social, and political domains while remaining firmly grounded in one of the most basic prerequisites for human life: the activity of breathing. In what ways does the history of psychoanalysis represent a repression of the fact of breathing? How do analytic accounts from Freud to Winnicott to Bion to Lacan variously take up or downplay the necessity of respiration? How does thinking about breath implicate our ideas about development, embodiment, the production of speech, and more? And how does thinking in a sustained way about breath challenge our assumptions about individuality, independence, and wellbeing? The three explore the stakes and meanings of breathing, from COVID wards to police violence to the wellness industry and beyond.

Kevin Hazzard Author of A Thousand Naked Strangers and American Sirens (you can find these on Amazon or wherever books are sold). You can find Kevin Hazzard at KevinHazzard.comKevin talks about the story Jesus told of the good Samaritan as really the first example of EMS. Jesus tells this story in response to a lawyer asking him how to obtain eternal life. A man was attacked on the road and left for dead. Many people that society perceives as “good” pass by this man but a Samaritan took the time to stop, dress his wounds and takes him somewhere to put a roof over his head and allow him to healKevin talks about how society has never put sustained efforts into saving people outside of the hospital until the 60'sThe white paper published in the 60's indicated that you were more likely to survive a gunshot wound in the Vietnam war than in the streets of the United States because you would have someone trained in first aid at your sideThere was significant emphasis on intubation for early paramedics. This was a skill very important to the early physicians because they knew the life saving potential We talk about the evolution of intubation and how emphasis seems to be changing and the important of still training on this skill because it can be very difficult and high stressI think it is important to increase training rather than remove a skill set from paramedicsWe talk about video options for intubation and the potential future of trainingThe first paramedics in American Sirens were black men that served their community called “The Hill”Pittsburgh in the 1960's was a very difficult city for African Americans. Jobs were not available. They were told they had no value. Then Freedom House ambulance gave them a purpose designed by the father of CPR himself, Peter SafarGoing from not worthy of anything to being trusted with paramedicine at the highest level for your own neighbors, your own communityThe first call they run is in the aftermath of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's assassinationPeter Safar, the father of CPR and an anesthesiologist, designed the early ambulances in a configuration that is still used today, a captains chair because he wanted good access to the airwayTheir first medical director, Nancy Caroline, wrote the foundational EMT education text bookThe great tragedy is no one can really tell you about Freedom House ambulance until now, the story was intentionally buried and forgotten“This need to be corrected,” Kevin Hazzard tells the important storySupport the showFull show notes can be found here: Episodes - Practical EMS - Content for EMTs, PAs, ParamedicsMost efficient online EKG course here: Practical EKG Interpretation - Practical EMS earn 4 CME and learn the fundamentals through advanced EKG interpretation in under 4 hours.

There's a shortage of specialized nurses who play a critical role in providing care to sexual assault survivors. Particularly in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. They are called sexual assault nurse examiners — or SANEs.As Drew Hawkins reports for the Gulf States Newsroom, one potential solution is to use telemedicine — but it's currently not available in the Gulf South.College textbooks are expensive. You might already know this if you've been to college, but prices have accelerated just in the last few years. And while tuition hikes and admission practices often create barriers of entry to higher education, sometimes it's that are prohibitively expensive, as they're often not covered by scholarships. As the spring semester gets into swing at schools across Louisiana, we found ourselves interested in efforts LSU is taking to address the accelerating problem of college textbook prices. Allen LeBlanc, Open Scholarship Librarian, at LSU Libraries tells us more about solutions.In June 2024, researchers released a medical study involving one Out Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center in Baton Rouge. It looked at techniques for intubating patients, the practice putting a tube down your throat to provide ventilation, is something that's generally done when you're in critical condition. The trial involved Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center in Baton Rouge as well as other ERs and ICUs across the nation. They're using a BPAP, a bilevel positive airway pressure machine.Dr. Christopher Thomas is a pulmonary critical care specialist at the hospital. He tells us more about this study, what researchers are hoping to find, and the results of a new airway pressure machine. ___Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos.

Contributor: Megan Hurley MD Educational Pearls: What is the mediastinum? The thoracic cavity is separated into different compartments by membranes The lungs exist in their own pleural cavities, and the mediastinum is everything in between The mediastinum extends from the sternum to the thoracic vertebrae and includes the heart, the aorta, the trachea, the esophagus, the thymus, as well as many lymph nodes and nerves. What is a pneumomediastinum? Air in the mediastinum How can pneumomediastinum be categorized? Traumatic Ex. Stab wound to the trachea Ex. Boerhaave's Syndrome of the esophagus, possibly from an endoscopic procedure. This mechanism in particular is a higher risk of infection because not only air but food can accumulate in the mediastinum Ex. Intubation with a bougie These will likely need surgical repair Nontraumatic Ex. Forceful inhalation causing microperforations in the trachea. Possibly while inhaling something like drugs Ex. Bad asthma for similar reasons Ex. Gas forming bacteria What happens if you use positive pressure ventilation on a patient with a hole in their trachea? The positive pressure will force extra air into the mediastinum The air will move between the layers of subcutaneous tissue and can track up into the neck and face regions recognized as crepitus on exam This can also cause a tension pneumomediastinum in which the air pressure in the compartment constricts the heart, impeding its ability to fill during diastole These patients can undergo bronchoscopy because that procedure does not require positive pressure and will not worsen the condition. Endoscopies do require positive pressure so endoscopies are not an option How is a tension pneumomediastinum treated? By inserting a needle into the space from below the xiphoid process to allow the air to escape, similar to a pericardiocentesis As a temporizing measure, if the hole is high enough in the trachea, the intubation can be continued by deliberately pushing the endotracheal tube into the right main bronchus, creating a seal, and only ventilating the right lung while the patient heads to surgery. This is called right-mainstemming. References Clancy DJ, Lane AS, Flynn PW, Seppelt IM. Tension pneumomediastinum: A literal form of chest tightness.

Nick talks about a difficult RSI intubation and his struggle to overcome the feeling that he didn't do his bestWe talk about how intubation success was such a critical point as a paramedic that everyone would have judged you on in the pastWe talk about the direct laryngoscopy vs the new video techniquesAdvice for the newbies: Brent: You're going to struggle with burnout. You need to recognize it early. Prepare for that possibility. Nick: The things that affect you are different for everyone. Certain things you think may not affect you will actually become a problem for you later. You can't choose the things that you will struggle with. Always treat the patient well and don't blame them for the problem they are having. It is not all about you. Treat people with respect and give them options. Let them save face.Mark: Recognize that your happiness is up to you. Don't expect the company or organization to give you your happiness or your wellbeing. If you see yourself getting less happy, you don't owe the organization anything. You make the decisions that affect your life. We can't blame the environment we choose. Make a change if you need to.The mountain will always be the mountain. We have better gear than we did before but that doesn't make the challenge itself that much easier. EMS is tough field and that will always be the caseKnowing when to step away is also importantNick's metaphor: Event horizons are the edge of a black hole. If you were in space and you passed into an event horizon you probably wouldn't even notice. But from the outside, you would just appear to disappear. Event horizons appear in our careers as well. You may not really understand you are at that point of terminal burnout but looking back you might be able to pinpoint that point of no return that you crossed.Where is the event horizon on a call? That point of no return where the outcome is assured.Support the showIf you want to support the show, follow the links below for some great health and fitness products.My favorite protein:https://1stphorm.com/products/phormula-1/?a_aid=PracticalEMS My favorite 1ST Phorm Energy Drinks: https://1stphorm.com/products/1st-phorm-energy/?a_aid=PracticalEMS My favorite creatine supplement https://1stphorm.com/products/micronized-creatine-monohydrate/?a_aid=PracticalEMS My favorite pre-workout supplementhttps://1stphorm.com/products/project-1/?a_aid=PracticalEMS If you want to work on your nutrition, increase your energy, improve your physical and mental health, I highly recommend 1st Phorm.

How old are you in EMS years? Are you using clinical skills that should be put out to pasture? Listen as cohosts Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson debate the effectiveness of “retired” EMS skills, like nasal and digital intubation, and whether the value of those skills has held up over time. Memorable quotes “If you're not proficient with all the tools in your box, what does that say about your training?” “I take a lot of pride in having a deep bag of tricks to pull from. And I can't count the number of times that some obscure piece of knowledge, or an assessment or treatment technique worked for me in the field when everyone else had given up or not even considered it.” ----more---- ABOUT THE SPONSOR Whether replacing radio reports, alerting specialty teams, or managing mass casualty incidents, Pulsara simplifies communication.

The principles of preoxygenation and passive oxygenation should be familiar to any experienced intubator. Best practice recommends the use of a nasal cannula in conjunction with either a non-rebreather mask or bag-valve mask (BVM) to prevent hypoxemia during the apneic phase of Rapid Sequence Intubation (RSI). In the PREOXI Trial, the authors pushed this concept further, questioning whether non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) might be more effective than these formally mentioned adjuncts. In this podcast, we dive into the strengths and weaknesses of the trial and explore whether its findings are truly practice-changing. We might even disagree along the way… (We also provide a rebuttal to some of the feedback we received on our previous podcast episode.)

What's the best way to pre-oxygenate our patients prior to intubation? The evidence for this question has been mixed for some time. Dr Jarvis discusses the PREOXI Trial that directly compares preoxygenation with non-invasive ventilation compared to face mask, to see which provides the best protection against peri-intubation hypoxia. This is an important trial that sheds light on a key component of our bundle of care to make intubation safer.Citations:Gibbs KW, Semler MW, Driver BE, Seitz KP, Stempek SB, Taylor C, Resnick-Ault D, White HD, Gandotra S, Doerschug KC, et al.: Noninvasive Ventilation for Preoxygenation during Emergency Intubation.

In this conversation, Dennis, Evan, and Doug discuss the debate between intubation and cricothyrotomy (cric) in the field. Dennis confesses his belief that intubation is the better option, while Evan and Doug argue for the use of cric in certain situations. They discuss the resource limitations in the field, the need for resuscitation prior to intubation, the challenges of obtaining and administering sedation medications, and the potential complications of intubation. They also touch on the importance of training and maintaining skills in a resource-constrained environment. The conversation explores the challenges of airway management in austere environments and the training and resources needed to optimize patient care. The speakers discuss the importance of experience and judgment in performing airway procedures and the need for ongoing training and skill sustainment. They highlight the differences between intubation and cricothyrotomy and the factors to consider when choosing the appropriate procedure. The conversation also touches on the training of role-one providers and the need for educational materials on difficult airway management. Takeaways The decision between intubation and cricothyrotomy depends on the resources available in the field. Intubation requires the ability to resuscitate the patient prior to the procedure and access to suction. Obtaining and administering sedation medications can be challenging in resource-constrained environments. Intubation can lead to hemodynamic instability and worsen shock in already unstable patients. Training and maintaining skills in a resource-constrained environment is crucial for successful airway management. Airway management in austere environments presents unique challenges and requires experience and judgment. Training and skill sustainment are crucial for optimizing patient care in these environments. The choice between intubation and cricothyrotomy depends on various factors, including patient stability and available resources. Role one providers need training and educational materials on difficult airway management. Standard of care should be maintained even in field environments, with deviations made consciously and deliberately.

Let's talk about the crashing intubated patient. What's your strategy? What if the nearest ICU requires transport? EM/intensivist Andrew Phillips gives EMRA*Cast host Kyle Duke some high-yield tips that you'll want to hear, too.
Description:There is evidence that clinician experience with intubation is associated with improved success rates and evidence that missed intubation attempts are associated with worse survival, at least in cardiac arrest. The recent Airway EBG paper recommends EMS agencies with low intubation proficiency should use SGAs instead of intubation in cardiac arrest. This all begs the question of whether agencies who intubate more often have higher success rates than those who do not. That's exactly the question a new paper from Annals of Emergency Medicine attempts to answer. Join Dr. Jarvis for a discussion of the paper and his thoughts on how to integrate its findings into practice.Citations:1.

Tickets are limited so don't wait! Visit https://fastsymposium.com for more information.The debate about which drug to use for sedation prior to RSI will.. just.. not… die. Advocates for both ketamine and etomidate approach the argument with near-religious zeal. There have been studies. We've even covered some here. What we need is a systematic review and meta-analysis, preferably using a type of analysis that recognizes that this likely isn't a black and white question and can bring some.. .nuance to it. That's were our friend Bayes comes in. Dr. Jarvis is joined by Drs Remle Crowe and CJ Winkler to discuss this paper and what in the hell Bayesian analysis actually is. We get some nice book recommendations in the process. Plus, we check in with ChatGPT for answers.Oh, BTW... don't take zoological advice from Dr. Winkler.

Rob Flanagan is a husband and father who lives with his family outside of Boulder, Colorado, and roughly one year ago he and his wife Dana began an ordeal that changed their lives. After a few days of fighting a cold and a slight fever while missing out on attending kindergarten, their daughter Saoirse was suddenly hospitalized and then intubated, and it was unclear if she would ever wake up. On this episode of Paternal, Flanagan recounts the experience of spending days in the ICU with his wife while they awaited word on the health of their daughter, what the doctor's diagnosis meant for their family, and how he learned to embrace both acceptance and hope on the path to becoming a better father.

Contributor: Aaron Lessen MD Educational Pearls: Is the adage, “GCS of 8, you've got to intubate” accurate? A recent study published in the November 2023 issue of JAMA attempted to answer this question. Design Multicenter, randomized trial, in France from 2021 to 2023. 225 patients experiencing comatose in the setting of acute poisoning were randomly assigned to either a conservative airway strategy of withholding intubation or “routine practice” of much more frequent intubation. The primary outcome was a composite endpoint including in-hospital death, length of intensive care unit stay, and length of hospital stay. Secondary outcomes included adverse events from intubation and pneumonia within 48 hours. Results Results showed that in the intervention group (with intubation withholding), only 16% of patients were intubated, compared to 58% in the control group. No in-hospital deaths occurred in either group. The intervention group demonstrated a significant clinical benefit for the primary endpoint, with a win ratio of 1.85 (95% CI, 1.33 to 2.58). The conservative airway management strategy also saw a statistically significant decrease in adverse events from intubation and pneumonia. Conclusion Among comatose patients with suspected acute poisoning, a conservative strategy of withholding intubation was associated with a greater clinical benefit. This suggests that a judicious approach to intubation is appropriate in many other settings and clinicians should rely on more than the GCS to make this decision.

Our profession requires extensive and exhaustive training. Much of it can seem esoteric and possibly unnecessary at the time, but we train on all of these things for a reason. When our team comes upon a severely burned patient, they extent of the burns causes a melange of difficulties. Could an obscure, and rarely used, procedure ultimately help and provide the patient more time? The AMPED team discusses this little-used technique and we discuss the importance of remaining familiar with the abundance of techniques and treatments we learn during our training.

Unplanned extubation in the PCICU patient is a serious concern with many untoward associations. Who is at highest risk for this complication? Why is this complication associated with worse outcomes in general? How does race or ethnicity impact the likelihood of this complication? We speak with Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Cincinnati and pediatric cardiac critical care expert, Dr. Tanya Perry about a recent PC4 registry study on unplanned extubation in the PCICU. doi: https://doi.org/10.1097/pcc.0000000000003235

Episode 27! In this episodes we sit down to talk all about the "when" to intubate a patient centered around acute poisoning in the NICO trial or "Effect of Noninvasive Airway Management of Comatose Patients With Acute Poisoning: A Randomized Clinical Trial" published by Freud et al in JAMA November 2023. We ended up talk a lot about that so we cut our old article a little bit short and discuss a couple of JAMA articles about definitive airways in out of hospital cardiac arrestNICO: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38019968/PART: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30167699/Prehospital advanced airway: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23321764/Be sure to follow us on the social @icucast for the associated figures, comments, and other content not available in the audio format!

This week we delve into the worlds of cardiac critical care and congenital heart surgery when we review a recent report of a randomized controlled trial assessing the impact of nasal intubation on rates of NG or G tube feeds at discharge following neonatal congenital heart surgery. Do nasally intubated patients eat by mouth faster and have shorter lengths of stay? What would be the theoretical reasons that this might be useful? What is an 'ICU Liberation bundle' and how did its application to all postop newborns improve outcomes? Can the route of tracheal intubation truly be viewed as a possible 'modifiable risk factor'? These are amongst the questions posed to cardiology fellow at the Cleveland Clinic, Dr. Melissa Yildirim who conducted this study at the University of Virginia during pediatric critical care fellowship. doi: 10.1007/s00246-023-03322-7
