As Norway's crown princess, Mette-Marit, convalesces from lung transplant surgery, we bring together patients and doctors to share their experiences of this major life-saving procedure. Since the 1980s, lung transplantations have become increasingly routine, but as every operation relies on suitable donor organs becoming available, the timing is always uncertain.“Everything was so quick, everything was so scary,” says Aimee Morrison, who received her new lungs last year, only months after being told she had a chronic degenerative condition, “You don't really get an opportunity to think about what's happening … 10-12 hr surgery, unknown results, what's going to happen afterwards…” As we hear, Aimee's story was particularly dramatic as only a week before her operation she had given birth to her daughter. Lung transplant patients require life-long aftercare from physicians like Dr Vicky Gerovasili, as their condition will always eventually deteriorate. “That can be very emotionally stressful,” she says,”but it's also very rewarding because we are becoming part of their life and their family. I sign off patients to go scuba diving, travel the world and that's fantastic to see.”

Lung cancer biopsies are still being done blind more often than you'd think, leading to costly diagnostic errors. In this episode, Reza Khorasaninejad, Founder & CEO at LEADOPTIK, discusses how advances in photonics and metasurface engineering are enabling highly miniaturized imaging systems for minimally invasive procedures. These innovations aim to address a major challenge in lung cancer biopsies: a lack of imaging guidance that can lead to significant diagnostic errors. Early clinical pilots across multiple sites are demonstrating strong performance, with one hospital already converting into a paying customer. Looking ahead, the company is partnering with Stanford Medicine to develop AI-driven decision support tools to further improve diagnostic accuracy. Tune in to learn how next-generation imaging and AI are changing that reality and helping physicians hit the right target the first time!

Identify it—and take one step today to lead differently. #Leadership #SelfTrust #Resilience #EmpoweredTeams #PersonalGrowth #LeadershipDevelopment
There’s a certain type of person who can’t half-ass anything. The kind of guy who decides to climb the Grand Teton on a whim, rappels off a sheer face having never rappelled before, canyoneers into some of the most remote slot canyons in the American Southwest, and packs mules solo through the dark at midnight to make the opener. Justin Helvik is that guy — and somehow, impossibly, he’s also a 20-year educator who coached high school football and showed up Monday morning with a collapsed lung and six broken ribs, insisting everything was fine. Justin and I go way back. He was with me on one of my early bear hunts. I helped him build the pole barn that would eventually house the mules he didn’t own yet. Life moves fast when you’re the kind of person who’s always got the next adventure already on the calendar. In this episode, Justin breaks down his unconventional path from desk jockey to legitimate mountain mule skinner — and I mean that in the best possible way. We talk about what drove a guy with zero ranch background to go all in on mule packing, the gnarly wreck on a Montana mountain goat hunt that left him with a punctured lung and broken ribs (and how his mule, Bella, somehow knew he was hurt and carried him out of the backcountry gently), and what it actually feels like to go from being intimidated by stock animals to packing 80 miles through the Yellowstone Thoroughfare. But this conversation goes deeper than mules. We get into the philosophy of adventure — what it means to chase that feeling of uncomfortable, why comfort might actually be the most dangerous thing you can do to yourself, and how stacking experiences over a lifetime is the only real way to build confidence that transfers everywhere. Justin talks about identity, ego, legacy, and what Lonesome Dove’s Augustus McCrae got right about living versus dying. He’s also got a Substack — From Desk Jockey to Mule Skinner — that I’d encourage every one of you to go read. He’s a great writer, and the stories are even better on the page. If you’ve ever thought about getting into pack stock, or you’re someone who’s wired to always be pushing the next limit, this one’s for you. Episode Sponsors Bridger Watch This episode is brought to you by Bridger Watch — the smartwatch built specifically for hunters, by a hunter. Cody set out to build something better after getting tired of pulling his phone out 100 times a day just to check his OnX map in the field. The solution? Put the maps on the watch. Bridger Watch is the best smartwatch for hunters, period. If you’re a watch guy and a hunter, this is built for you. Website: https://www.bridgerwatch.com?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss Coupon Code: TRO onX Hunt onX Hunt is the gold standard for hunting maps, and they just dropped a feature that’s going to change how you hunt with a buddy. The new Share Location feature inside the Go Track section lets you and your hunting partner see each other’s real-time position right on the map — like a modern-day Garmin Rino, but actually good. Fair warning: this only works in cell service, so it won’t help you in the deep dark. But for those in-service hunts? This is seriously cool tech that a lot of hunters have been asking for for years.

Comfort is the real killer — not the mountains. Justin makes the point that denying yourself the adventures you’re wired for is a slow death from the inside. It’s not just a mindset cliché — he’s seen it play out in his own life. When he’s not planning something that makes him a little nervous, he loses motivation everywhere else: at work, at home, as a father. The takeaway for listeners isn’t to go do something reckless. It’s to identify your version of “uncomfortable” and book it. Put it in the calendar. Then don’t cancel. 2. Stack experiences, not just kills. One of the most practical threads in this whole conversation is the concept of experience stacking — the idea that every micro-adventure you complete is compounding interest on your confidence. Justin didn’t go from zero to packing 80 miles through the Yellowstone Thoroughfare overnight. He stacked years of backcountry hunting, mule rides with friends, short overnighters, and hard lessons (including that ER visit) until the big trips felt like a natural next step. If you’re waiting until you’re “ready” to do the hunt of a lifetime, you’ll wait forever. Start smaller, go often, and let the experiences compound. 3. The anticipation is half the experience — book the trip. Justin and Cody dig into something that doesn’t get talked about enough in the hunting world: the happiness that comes from having something on the calendar to look forward to. Science backs this up — humans are wired to find joy in anticipation. The planning, the e-scouting, the gear lists, the late-night what-ifs with your buddy — that’s not just prep, that’s part of the experience itself. Don’t wait for the perfect conditions or the perfect budget. Book it now, figure it out along the way, and let yourself enjoy the countdown.

In this episode of the TCOYD Podcast, Dr. Edelman and Dr. Pettus are joined by pediatric endocrinologist Dr. Jamie Wood, medical director of pediatric diabetes at Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital and an investigator on the INHALE-1 trial, to talk through inhaled insulin in kids and where it fits in real-world pediatric care.The conversation focuses on the recent approval of Afrezza for children as young as six, and what the INHALE-1 trial actually showed. Dr. Wood walks through the study design, A1C results, lung-function and safety data, and the practical aspects of dosing inhaled insulin in a pediatric population. Rather than positioning it as a replacement for injections or pumps, the discussion centers on finding the right fit for each child's needs, from the newly diagnosed kid with a needle phobia to the teen trying to dose discreetly during a 20-minute school lunch.Dr. E, Dr. P, and Dr. Wood also discuss the everyday realities that shape how this option is used, including the set-dose cartridge sizes, a titration approach refined in clinic, and how families are mixing and matching tools alongside automated insulin delivery. The takeaway is encouraging: there are more options than ever for managing mealtime insulin in kids, and this one may help fill some of the gaps left by injections and pumps.Key Topics • The recent approval of inhaled insulin for children as young as six • How the INHALE-1 pediatric trial was designed • A1C results and what the primary endpoint analysis showed • Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) metrics across the two groups • Lung-function (FEV1) monitoring and pediatric safety • Weight and body mass index (BMI) findings • Why mealtime dosing is a leading unmet need in pediatric type 1 diabetes (T1D) • The set-dose cartridge approach and how it reframes meal sizes • A real-world titration method for inhaled insulin • Managing cough and other practical considerations • Needle phobia and the kids who struggle most with injections • Using inhaled insulin alongside automated insulin delivery (AID) systems • What's coming next, including a smaller cartridge dose and a new-onset trial Subscribe for practical diabetes management tips, technology updates, and treatment breakthroughs that help people with diabetes live healthier, more flexible lives.More diabetes resources:Website: tcoyd.orgBlog: tcoyd.org/blogPodcast: tcoydthepodcast.transistor.fmInstagram: / tcoydFacebook: / tcoydStay connected!

In this high-signal PFC Podcast episode, Dennis sits down with Dr. John Wightman — former 24th Special Operations Wing Surgeon, emergency physician, and one of the world's leading experts on blast injuries. Drawing from decades of clinical, combat, and academic experience (including co-authoring a seminal paper on blast injuries just before 9/11 and multiple combat deployments), Dr. Wightman breaks down the unique pathophysiology, recognition, and prolonged field care management of blast lung injury — the often-hidden threat that can kill even when penetrating trauma doesn't.From the physics of the supersonic pressure wave to practical field decisions on tension pneumothorax, ventilation strategies, fluid management, and avoiding air embolism, this is essential listening for medics, operators, and anyone preparing for large-scale combat operations, urban warfare, or confined-space blasts.Key Takeaways:Primary blast lung injury is caused by the blast wave itself — not fragments or being thrown — and creates unique pulmonary contusions, air leaks, and arterial air emboli risks.Most significant blast lung develops within the first 1–6 hours; subtle dyspnea on exertion can be an early warning.MARCH priorities still rule — aggressively rule out (or treat) tension pneumothorax, even bilaterally, before assuming blast lung.Positive pressure ventilation can worsen outcomes (especially air embolism risk) — use judiciously; CPAP or PEEP may be better bridges when possible.PAO₂/FiO₂ ratio (or SpO₂ on room air) helps stratify severity and predict need for advanced support.Tympanic membrane rupture proves blast exposure but is not required for blast lung.Fluid management must be careful — permissive hypotension may be dangerous in blast lung + shock.Don't forget occult blast bowel injury — delayed perforation is real (up to 8 days).Whether you're running a team in Ukraine-style trench warfare, preparing for mass casualty events, or just want to stay on the bleeding edge of combat medicine, this episode delivers critical, actionable knowledge.Chapters:00:43 - John Wightman Introduction: 32 Years as Air Force EM Physician & Blast Injury Expert02:54 - What Is Blast Lung?

We are in the third week of our four-part series on the 5th-largest killer in America. This week, we talk about the diagnostics that can help prevent Chronic Lower Respiratory Disease and the tests that can help provide a roadmap to actually reverse it. In this episode, you'll learn:—How Asthma is the majority of CLRD cases, while COPD is the number one category of CLRD deaths.—Why the Spirometry Lung Function Test is the most important tool to diagnose the Lungs. And why Dr. Prather does not charge for follow-up Spirometry tests for those with severe Lung problems. —What factors Dr. Prather looks for to determine when a Chest X-Ray is needed or when CT imaging is required for a patient. And the common calcification Dr. Prather sees on Chest X-Rays due to Indianapolis being the "Histoplasmosis Capitol of America". —The importance of Vitamin D testing for respiratory health and the role it played during COVID. And why Dr. Prather believes CLRD could be lowered by 85% if people just keep their Vitamin D levels in proper range.—The importance of Vitamin A as the recommended treatment for Measles. And the history behind Cod Liver Oil as a great supplement for kids.—The importance of a Pulse Oximeter to check Blood Oxygen levels as a standard screening for all patients. —How Hair Analysis has been an important key to the health of so many patients, such as identifying toxic heavy metals like Cadmium which cause long-term damage to the Lungs. —Why Dr. Prather believes Sputum Cultures are under-utilized. —How a Stool Kit plays an important role for Lung health by identifying leaky gut issues that lead to Food Allergies. Plus, how Parasites are a big cause of severe childhood Asthma and adult-onset Asthma.—Why too LOW levels of Hydrochloric Acid "almost always kicks off allergies" and is the reason for GERD and heartburn. And why Proton Pump Inhibitors like Pepcid actually make the problem worse by lowering the Hydrochloric Acid in your stomach even more.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com*Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

This week, Aebhric O'Kelly speaks with three combat medics from Tactical Medicine North following a Tactical APUS instructor development programme in Malta. The discussion explores whether ultrasound can be taught to non-medical personnel operating in combat environments, including Combat Lifesavers (CLS) and Combat Medic Corpsmen (CMC), and how ultrasound may support prolonged casualty care, triage, and telemedicine in Ukraine. The conversation challenges traditional assumptions regarding ultrasound education, introduces the Tactical APUS concept, discusses modifications to the standard eFAST examination sequence, and reviews preliminary observations from a study comparing parasternal long-axis (PLAX) and subxiphoid cardiac views.

Discussion on teaching eFAST ultrasound to Combat Lifesavers and Combat Medic Corpsmen.Comparison with early challenges teaching combat medicine to personnel without formal medical backgrounds. Importance of simple teaching techniques and instructor adaptability.Introduction of the "Home Point" concept for each eFAST window. How home points help students recover when they become disoriented during scanning.Development of a one-day ultrasoundcurriculum for tactical providers.Focus on eFAST as a trauma tool for prolonged field care and telemedicine support.Discussion of modifying the traditional eFAST sequence.Prioritising lung assessment over cardiac views.The dangers of exposing casualties during scanning.Importance of maintaining casualty insulation and minimising gel exposure.Why the Tactical APUS team moved cardiac assessment after lung assessment.Students consistently finding the parasternal long-axis view easier to obtain.Experience using Maltese nurses as pilot students.Differences between teaching healthcare professionals and non-medical personnel.Language barriers and instructional adaptations. Moving beyond "Can we?" to "Should we?"Ultrasound as a prolonged casualty care and telemedicine tool.Supporting decision-making during extended evacuations. Using eFAST to prioritise casualties during mass casualty situations.Early identification of internal bleedingand pneumothorax.Potential role of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) assessment in blast-related head injuries. Importance of accessibility of handheld ultrasound devices.The role of deliberate practice and repetition in ultrasound mastery. Reflections on the success of the Tactical APUS pilot programme.Future collaboration between CoROM and Tactical Medicine North.Final thoughts from the Ukrainian instructors.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths, yet funding to support patients can be hard to come by because of the stigma attached to it. While smoking is associated with lung cancer, many people who have never smoked are diagnosed with the disease. Racquel Williams talks with Ride Hard Breathe Easy, an organization that raises funds and awareness for lung cancer patients through community bike rides, as well as a social worker at Fox Chase Cancer Center and a woman who is on her fourth battle with the disease, to understand how we can support lung cancer patients and how to get screened.

The history of race-based correction of lung-capacity measures can be traced to a pre–Civil War belief among slave owners that slaves had naturally inferior lung capacity. Despite work to show that race-corrected spirometers mask lung-disease severity in Black patients, the majority of U.S. hospitals still use them.

Description: "What is metabolic disease and why do I have it on top of psoriatic disease?" Hear dermatologist Dr. Ronald Prussick and registered dietitian Danielle Cahalan explore this collision of diseases and how you can take control to help reduce the impact of inflammation. Join host Corinne Rutkowski as she discusses why metabolic disease occurs with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis and what can be done to improve overall health with dermatologist and Vice Chair of the NPF Medical Board, Dr. Ronald Prussick from Washington Dermatology Center in Rockville and Frederick, MD, and Danielle Cahalan, a registered dietitian and coach with All Access Dietitians. Listen as they also discuss the four pillars of health, the latest evidence around use of the Mediterranean Diet with psoriatic disease, key nutrients that impact overall health from omega 3's, polyphenols, and fiber, to making small sustainable changes. This episode offers information to help explain the connection between metabolic and psoriatic disease and what can be done to decrease health risks associated with both diseases through sustainable changes. Timestamps: (0:00) Intro to Psoriasis Uncovered & guest welcome dermatologist Dr. Ronald Prussick and registered dietitiand and coach Danielle Cahalan. (1:27) Definition of metabolic disease and why the risk is higher among those with psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis. (3:11) How this bi-directional relationship impacts the management of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. (6:54) The four pillars of health that can be used to reduce the risk of metabolic disease. (11:17) Does an anti-inflammatory diet exist? (13:46) What is the Mediterranean diet and the foods that are typically included. (16:32) The impact of the Mediterranean diet on systemic inflammation, metabolic health, and severity of psoriatic disease. (21:03) The three types of healthy fats – what they are, how they work, and where to find them. (24:50) The high polyphenol Mediterranean diet from what that means to choosing nutrient dense, colorful foods. (28:04) The koebnerization of the gut microbiome and the impact of the Mediterranean diet and high fiber. (30:59) The DASH diet in combination with the Mediterranean diet lowers oxidative stress and inflammation. (33:14) Sustainability of the Mediterranean diet and flexing behavioral health changes long term. (37:43) Start with small habit changes and then build from there to have an impact on your metabolic health. Key Takeaways: · Research shows a bi-directional relationship between psoriasis and excess body weight leading to increasing severity of disease, decrease in treatment effectiveness, and the development of metabolic syndrome, a group of conditions which together raise the risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. · What you choose to eat can make an impact in managing inflammatory markers, metabolic health to increase insulin sensitivity, decrease high blood pressure, improve lipids and the gut microbiome, as well as support neuro protection and decrease cognitive decline. · Create small sustainable habits that make positive changes to your immune system and gradually work towards building a foundation that benefits your overall health.

In this episode of Critical Care Time, we tackle one of the most complex and high-stakes corners of critical care: the lung transplant patient in the ICU. From evaluating candidates at the edge of respiratory failure to managing the crashing post-transplant patient, we break down the practical bedside decisions that matter most — including bridge strategies, hemodynamics, immunosuppression, infection, rejection, and the complications that can rapidly spiral if you miss them. Whether you work in a transplant center or occasionally inherit these patients in a general ICU, this episode is built to give you a sharper framework, clearer priorities, and more confidence when the stakes are highest. As is often the case, a heavy lift like this needs some back up and we are grateful to have Dr. Lara Jones, a transplant pulmonologist and her colleague, Dr. Jason Gauthier, a thoracic surgeon on to help us with this one!Thank you to Integration Health for sponsoring this episode.

Isn't smoking bad for you? Yes…but the conversation around smokable herbs may be more nuanced than you think.In this episode, I'm joined by herbalist and founder of Puff Herbals, Lian Bruno, for a grounded, thoughtful conversation about smokable herbs—especially mullein (Verbascum spp.). While many herbalists shy away from this topic, Lian approaches it through a lens of harm reduction, compassion, and what she calls “holistic hedonism.”LIan explores why mullein has long been used in smoking blends, how formulation dramatically changes the smoking experience, and why all-or-nothing thinking can make conversations about smoking harder, not safer. This episode isn't a blanket endorsement of smoking, nor is it a how-to guide. Instead, it's an invitation into nuance: understanding energetics, honoring ritual, and supporting people exactly where they are.During our conversation, Lian shares her recipe for Lung Lube, a syrup that offers both immediate relief and long-term support for lungs irritated by smoke or sickness. You can download your beautifully-illustrated recipe card here.By the end of this episode, you'll know:► Four reasons mullein is considered a classic smokable herb► Why mullein should rarely be smoked alone (and what to pair it with)► How smokable herbs can serve as a bridge for reducing nicotine or cannabis use► How to formulate a smoking blend with intention, matching plant energetics to your desired effect► Eighteen examples of smokable herbs—and the reasons you might include them in a smoking blend► and so much more…For those of you who don't know her, Lian Bruno is a clinically-trained herbalist, holistic health educator, writer, and founder of Puff Herbals — a brand redefining smoking rituals with tobacco-free, cannabis-free herbal alternatives. With a background in ethnobotany, she blends science, storytelling, and subculture into smoking blends designed for modern rituals.Rooted in harm reduction and what she calls holistic hedonism, Puff Herbals makes herbalism approachable for anyone looking to light up — from the sober-curious and wellness-obsessed to skeptics and smokers looking to quit or cut back.Whether or not you ever work with smokable herbs, I hope this conversation encourages curiosity over judgment and reminds you that herbalism is ultimately about relationship — with plants, with our bodies, and with one another.----Get full show notes, transcript, and more information at: herbswithrosaleepodcast.comWould you prefer watching this episode?
