As the UK enjoys its unpredictable summer, with everything from sunshine to hailstorms, we bring you a mix of updates and discussions on emergency medicine, blog content, upcoming conferences, and insightful research reviews. So, whether you're basking in the sun or sheltering from the rain, sit back and enjoy our latest insights into the world of emergency medicine. In this round-up of Month Year, we talk about a wide range of issues relating to emergency medicine, including nebulised ketamine for analgesia in the ED, risky intubations, presentation skills, more about the DOSE VF trial and analysis of the much-hyped PREOXI trial about preoxygenation before tracheal intubation. We're excited to announce our participation in two upcoming conferences. The Tactical Trauma Conference in Sweden this October promises to delve into pre-hospital emergency medicine, offering sessions from renowned speakers. It's a fantastic opportunity to learn and network, with flights to Sweden being relatively affordable. The event takes place just north of Stockholm, providing a chance to explore the beautiful city. In March next year, we look forward to the Incrementum Conference in Murcia, Spain. This is a significant event as emergency medicine has recently been recognized as a specialty in Spain. The conference will feature an impressive lineup of speakers from the FOMED world, including Scott Weingart, Ken Milne, Hany Malamatt, and Slim Resie , among others. Our very own Simon Carly will also be presenting. We'll be there to conduct interviews and gather exclusive content for our listeners. Thank you for joining us, please do like and subscribe wherever you get our podcasts.  

Dr. Ken Milne presents his talk entitled, “Old Fashioned Doctors,” to Mayo Clinic Emergency Medicine as our keynote speaker for our annual research day. In this talk, he goes through 10 ideas that were proposed in an article by Dr. Herbert Fred as potential ways that old-fashioned doctors may practice medicine more effectively or more palatably than younger counterparts. In this talk, he challenges those ten ideas while offering insights and reflections founded from his experiences before that can help guide or shape the way people can practice tomorrow. This is all done through the use of story and humor as he does in all of his other public speaking opportunities.   CONTACTS X - @AlwaysOnEM; @VenkBellamkonda YouTube - @AlwaysOnEM; @VenkBellamkonda; @KenMilne4234 Instagram – @AlwaysOnEM; @Venk_like_vancomycin; @ASFinch TikTok - @Dr_Venk Email - AlwaysOnEM@gmail.com REFERENCES & LINKS Skeptics guide to emergency medicine: https://thesgem.com/  Ken Milne's Youtube video of his presentation: https://youtu.be/f18FmFci-BI?si=jqJ-53HMLTI-uwLy Herbert L Fred M.D. (1998) Old-Fashioned Doctors, Hospital Practice, 33:12, 15-15, DOI: 10.1080/21548331.1998.11443787   WANT TO WORK AT MAYO?

Chris and Jonathan speak to Ken Milne, the host of the Skeptics' Guide to Emergency Medicine and a physician who practices rural emergency medicine in Ontario. What is it like treating patients away from major urban centres? It may actually be better in some ways! Also, the trio tackles the unfolding crisis in which Canadian emergency departments are temporarily closing due to a lack of proper resources. When doctors complain they lack beds, they don't mean furniture. (2:06) The Batdoc and the Flash (2:50) What is rural emergency medicine?

This episode is sponsored by Charm Economics– data-driven solutions for digital health & MedTech businesses. Dr. Block and his guest, Dr. Ken Milne, delve into the concept of knowledge translation and the time it takes for new information to be integrated into clinical practice. They reference a famous paper that found it takes an average of 17 years for clinically relevant information to reach the patient's bedside.  However, the hosts believe that this time frame can be shortened with the help of social media and evidence-based medicine. They emphasize the importance of evidence-based medicine but also note that it should not be the only factor in decision-making. The hosts also discuss their checklist for evaluating the validity of studies and how they use their podcast to share new information with their audience. Overall, the hosts believe that shortening the time it takes for new information to be integrated into clinical practice can lead to improved patient outcomes. The episode also touches on the potential benefits of vitamin C in treating sepsis patients. One study conducted at Dr. Paul Merrick's Institution showed a significant mortality benefit in patients who were given a cocktail of thiamine, Vitamin C, and hydrocortisone. However, the study was not a randomized control trial and was before-and-after observational, leading to skepticism about the conclusions. Over the next few years, properly designed randomized control trials were conducted and found that vitamin C had no significant impact on sepsis patients. Therefore, while there was initial interest in the potential benefits of vitamin C in treating sepsis, further research has shown that it is not an effective treatment. Looking for something specific within the show? Here you go! [00:00:00] Evidence-based medicine in practice.  [00:05:27] Knowledge translation takes 17 years.  [00:07:26] Randomized control trial questions.  [00:10:59] Shared decision-making in medicine.  [00:14:53] Evidence-based medicine in emergency room.  [00:18:18] Physicians' big egos.  [00:22:20] TXA: The Duct Tape.  [00:24:01] Health interventions and cost.  [00:27:46] Subgroup analysis in studies.  [00:31:12] Epistemology and scientific bias.  [00:34:32] Vitamin C and its benefits.  [00:38:17] Losing to get better.

I marts 2021 var RESUS inviteret med i den måske største internationale akutmedicinske podcast "The Skeptics' Guide to EM" af vært Ken Milne, akutmediciner fra Canada og af mange beskrevet som the G.O.A.T. (Greatest Of All Time) indenfor akutmedicinsk FOAMed. Ken Milne har siden han startede sin blog og podcast på www.TheSGEM.com sat standarden for kritisk gennemgang af litteratur og er blevet ledende indenfor evidensbaseret medicin i den akutmedicinske verden. RESUS blev inviteret med til at gennemgå et studie af Schuster et al. fra Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery i 2020 der undersøgte hvorvidt spirometre udført tidligt i akutafdelingen kunne forudse hvilke patienter >65 år med ≥3 ribbensfrakturer der havde mindst risiko for at udvikle komplikationer og derfor potentielt kunne udskrives tidligt. Efter du har hørt afsnittet anbefaler vi kraftigt, hvis du ikke allerede abonnerer på podcasten, at du går ind og besøger The Skeptics' Guide to EM på www.thesgem.com hvor du hver uge vil kunne finde en ny gennemgang af akutmedicinsk relevant litteratur.

With the help of a special guest, EBM guru Dr. Ken Milne of the The SGEM, Anton and Justin look at all the various potential indications for TXA and review the available evidence. Should we be using TXA for epistaxis, postpartum hemorrhage, hyphema or hemoptysis? Is it a miracle drug that stops all bleeding? Or has it been drastically overhyped? Was CRASH-2 enough to be definitive, or does the classic EBM mantra of  "we need more studies" remain true?... The post Journal Jam 18 The Evidence for TXA – Should Tranexamic Acid Be Routine Therapy in the Bleeding Patient? appeared first on Emergency Medicine Cases.

Since the beginning of the pandemic in mid-March, patient visits to hospital emergency room have dropped by up to a half. It's not surprising since leaving the house, let alone a trip to see the doctor, is now one of many activities that Canadians may question, as we all try to avoid exposure to COVID-19. But emergency physicians are concerned people are too afraid to seek medical attention and that it could have a serious impact on their health. So today on The Dose, we're asking the question, 'Is it safe to go to the ER during COVID-19?' Dr. Goldman is joined by Dr. Ken Milne, Chief of Staff at South Huron Hospital in Exeter Ontario. He is an adjunct professor in Emergency and Family Medicine at the Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry. He also teaches at Western University and is the creator of The Skeptics' Guide to Emergency Medicine.

Our interview with Dr. Ken Milne, AKA The Bat Doc.

In early June of this year I caught up with Dr. Rob Rogers of iTeach EM and The Teaching Course, Dr. Ken Milne of The Skeptics Guide to EM and Dr. Brent Thoma of Academic Life in EM and Boring EM at the Canadian Association of Emergency Medicine Conference in Ottawa to chat about the evolution of Social Media & Emergency Medicine Learning. In this podcast, we discuss how Social Media can enhance your career, tips on how to get the most out of FOAMed without getting overwhelmed by the volume of material, swarm-based medicine, tacit knowledge sharing, the flipped classroom, the use of FOAMed in emergency medicine training curricula, how Twitter, Google+, Google Hangout and Google Glass have changed the face of medical education, and much more.
