The Smart Buildings Academy Podcast | Teaching You Building Automation, Systems Integration, and Information Technology

In this episode of the Smart Buildings Academy Podcast, we tackle one of the most common sources of friction on a controls project: coordination between electrical, mechanical, and controls teams. As a building automation professional, you often sit directly between multiple trades. When responsibilities are unclear, a missing connection or misunderstood scope can quickly become a schedule problem, a budget problem, and eventually a relationship problem. This episode explores how you can approach those coordination points earlier and gain better visibility into the interfaces that affect your work. You'll hear how to identify potential gaps before they reach the field and how to navigate conflicts without damaging the working relationships you'll need on this project and the next one. Topics Covered Why electrical, mechanical, and controls handoffs break down Where Division 23 and Division 26 responsibilities can create scope gaps How furnish, install, and terminate responsibilities affect controls projects What to consider when coordinating controls interfaces and field dependencies How to approach jobsite conflicts while protecting schedules and relationships When controls sits in the middle of the project, you have a unique view of how the building fits together. This episode will help you think differently about using that position to keep projects moving.

Lindsay Clancy, the 34-year-old Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023, sat in court today for some of the most difficult testimony of the trial so far. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and her attorney, Kevin Reddington, is mounting an insanity defense built on claims of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Today the courtroom heard from three witnesses. Nichole Bradley, Assistant Deputy Superintendent with the Plymouth County Sheriff's Department, testified about providing security watch at Clancy's hospital room following her alleged suicide attempt. Then came the harder part. Renee Stonebridge, neuropathology-trained and with the Chief Medical Examiner's Office, testified that all three children died of asphyxia, with significant brain swelling caused by lack of oxygen and blood flow. Dr. Barbara Olson, who performed the autopsies on Cora and Dawson, testified that bruising on Cora was recent — though she couldn't pin down exactly when it occurred — and that both children would have felt pain as they lost consciousness during strangulation. Mechanical asphyxiation, she confirmed, killed them both.Court had to recess more than once as Clancy reacted emotionally to the testimony.After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted to jump from a second-story window and is now paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial continues in Plymouth Superior Court and is expected to run several more weeks.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode, we are discussing one of the most rapidly evolving areas in acute stroke care, mechanical thrombectomy for medium vessel occlusions, or MEVO. While thrombectomy is well established for large vessel occlusions, whether patients with smaller, more distal occlusions benefit has remained an important unanswered question. In the recent years, several landmark trials have evaluated endovascular treatment for MEVO with differing results, some suggesting benefits while others suggesting no benefit. Together, these studies have shifted the conversation from whether thrombectomy should be performed to which patients are most likely to benefit. To discuss how these findings are reshaping clinical practice and the future of thrombectomy stroke trials, we spoke with Dr. Mayank Goyal, professor of radiology and clinical neurosciences at the University of Calgary. He was interviewed by Dr. Omar Al-Janabi, a stroke neurologist at Baptist Health.    Disclosures: Dr. Goyal discloses consulting fees from Medtronic, Penumbra, Jacob's Institute, Silvercreek Pharma, Microvention, and grant funding from Medtronic and Cerenovus

In this episode, Barry Schwartz explores why making a good decision isn't always as simple as weighing the pros and cons. We discuss why trying to find the "best" option can sometimes leave us worse off, when we should trust our judgment instead of the numbers, and why having so many choices today can make even simple decisions feel overwhelming. Along the way, Barry offers a different way to think about making choices—and what it really means to choose wisely.Keywordsdecision making, rational choice theory, judgment, behavioral economics, trade-offs, regret, modern decision challengesIn this episode, you'll learn:Why rational choice theory doesn't capture how many real-world decisions should be madeWhy some choices simply can't be reduced to numbersHow quantification can create a false sense of confidenceWhy we sometimes prioritize what's measurable instead of what actually mattersThe difference between maximizing and choosing something that's "good enough"Why having more choices can make decision-making harderHow judgment differs from simply following your intuitionWhy values and flexibility both matter when making difficult choicesHow regret can improve future decisionsWhy the modern world may be making thoughtful decision-making more difficultChapters00:00 Introduction to Barry Schwartz and his new book09:30 The limitations of quantifying decisions and outcomes11:00 The importance of context, framing, and norms in decision making13:24 The seductive nature of quantification and its pitfalls14:56 The futility of searching for the 'best' in decisions16:54 Mechanical errors in probabilistic thinking and uncertainty18:09 Challenges of quantifying complex decisions like college choices19:44 The risks of over-reliance on quantification and metrics22:09 The influence of quantifiable metrics on decision priorities23:36 The problem with maximizing and searching for the 'best'25:21 The paradox of choice and satisfaction27:12 The limits of rational search in life decisions28:46 When to apply rational choice theory and when to rely on judgment30:12 The role of reflection and goals in decision making31:58 Balancing logic, intuition, and emotion in decisions40:36 The importance of values, principles, and flexibility41:30 Life as a series of judgment calls, not formulas42:29 The role of regret in learning and decision improvement44:29 The right amount of regret and its importance45:54 Final thoughts on decision making in a complex worldGuest LinksWebsite - https://www.swarthmore.edu/profile/barry-schwartz

The Journal of Arthroplasty: The Cut brings you another very special episode based on Knee Society Proceedings that highlight important research about knee arthroplasty. In this episode of The Cut, our host Kim K. Tucker, MD speaks with our guest Simon W. Young, MD, FRCS about the John N. Insall award-winning study on Functional Versus Mechanical Aligment in Total Knee Arthroplasty.  Mechanical alignment (MA) in total knee arthroplasty is regarded as a gold standard; however, some patients report dissatisfaction postsurgery. Functional alignment (FA) is a potential alternative, integrating kinematic alignment (KA) principles with preresection bone balancing within defined boundaries. In this prospective, randomized controlled trial in robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty, interesting results were uncovered.  Tune in to the full recording to find out what was discovered. And thanks for listening to The Journal of Arthroplasty: The Cut! In This Episode:Kim Tucker, MDSimon W.

Welcome to Mysteries to Die For.I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you in the heart of a mystery. All stories are structured to challenge you to beat the detective to the solution. Jack and I perform these live, front to back, no breaks, no fakes, no retakes.In the world's most dangerous working environments it can seem like everything is out to kill you. The equipment you use.

This is Season 9, Stuff That Can Kill You.This is Episode 15, where Chemical is our STCKY means of death. This is GenX by Melinda Di LorenzoDELIBERATIONJason Mercer's weekend away with his high school buddies has turned deadly. He thinks he knows who killed Kevin Boeser and why, but let's help him gut check before his silk pajamas are traded in for prison orange. Here are the suspects in the order we met them:Jason Mercer, party organizerJen Jenkins, Kevin's secret baby mamaDavid Shizka, his wife's hit-and-run driverAngela Leeman, Kevin's high school stalkerMichael Greer, the gambler who owes $200 largeHere is what we know …Kevin Boeser was found dead in the center of camp, suffocated by a blue tarp. His trademark red Doc Martens stuck out of one end. Pulling back the tarp revealed blue lips from suffocation and the coat he'd worn the night before.Jason Mercer slept outside that night in a chair. When he fell asleep, Michael and Angela were in camp, David, Jen, and Kevin were in the woods. When he woke, all the others came out of their tents.Jason saw the suspects interact with Kevin that night. David loaned Kevin his coat and talked about Jen's kid and his wife's car accident. Angela kissed Kevin. Michael snubbed Kevin. Jason saw Jen go into the woods but didn't actually see or hear the conversation.Jen was tense about the weekend with her son's biological father and counted on Jason to revoke the invite. Kevin confirmed to David that he knew he was the father.David didn't accidentally make the invitation but felt he couldn't withdraw it because Kevin knew he was the driver in his wife's accident. Kevin confirmed that knowledge.Angela blamed Kevin for her hospital stay. Seeing him challenged the progress made through therapy and pharmaceuticals.Michael owed Kevin $200k he didn't have and expected the man to call the debt due. He figured Kevin arranged the “accidental” invitation for that reason.Jason himself had a motive as he used Kevin to cheat on tests in high school that led to his college entry. If Kevin talked, his mogul status could be pulled out from under him.Jen suspects Jason since he was asleep outside when she returned. No one else has made an accusation.Jen's van will not start, stranding the now distrusting friends unless they use Kevin's car.Which of the Gen Xers ruined Kevin's weekend?ABOUT Melinda Di LorenzoMelinda Di Lorenzo is an award-winning, multi-genre author of over forty books.

On Friday, April 13, 2029, asteroid Apophis will pass closer to Earth than our geostationary satellites. While NASA, ESA, and JAXA are all sending missions, a team of students at the University of Maryland is building their own spacecraft to join the fleet. TERP RAPTOR is a CubeSat-based mission roughly the size of a microwave that aims to fly past the asteroid and snap images of its surface as it approaches Earth. Four members of the team join Planetary Radio: Adrienne Rudolph, the Student Principal Investigator; Elena Wu, the Lead Project Manager; Tyler Autrey, the Mechanical, Structure, and Materials Lead; and Alexander Williams, the Propulsion Lead. Together, they talk about how a graduate class project turned into a real mission, what they hope to learn about this potentially hazardous asteroid, and why they're not letting anyone tell them it can't be done. Then, Bruce Betts joins us for What's Up, where we mark the deployment anniversary of The Planetary Society's own CubeSat-based solar sail mission, LightSail 2.

Afful is interested in the threshold conditions where the material goes from plastic deformation to fracture. Using nanoindentation, his group could learn, at the atomic scale, when plastic deformation starts and how various temperatures affect the mechanical behavior of layered materials. This work was published in a recent issue of Communications Materials.

70 percent of Boston's greenhouse gas emissions come from buildings. Boston hospitals consume four times as much energy as other city buildings. And a technology that already exists, installed by trained workers already on the job, could dramatically reduce both figures. It's called mechanical insulation. On today's trades day episode of America's Work Force Union Podcast, Mechanical Insulators LMCT Executive Director Pete Ielmini discusses a Commonwealth Beacon investigation into energy consumption at a Boston hospital and what it means for the broader push to make mechanical insulation energy audits mandatory. He also covers the Hale Building at Brigham and Women's Hospital as a model of what properly designed construction can achieve, the gap in inspection requirements that allows new buildings to be completed without the insulation they were supposed to have and the status of the Federal Mechanical Insulation Act in the Senate with December's end of Congress deadline approaching.

In this episode, we ask: What if Nations Are Running the Same Code That Runs You?  Examined that question through history, geopolitics, and the Emotional Source Code framework.

Here's what nobody warned any of them about. The deserving mechanism does not stop at the individual. It does not stop at the organization. It does not stop at the nation. Today we zoom all the way out. Stanley Kubrick made Dr. Strangelove in 1964 because someone needed to say out loud that the same code running inside individual human beings was running the room that could end the world. He was right. In this episode, we watch the mechanism run at civilizational scale. In 1919, at a table in Versailles, the Allied powers opened a ledger, made Germany pay, and produced the Second World War.  In 1948, when George Marshall stood before Congress and made the case for something the deserving logic of every preceding civilization would have called irrational, and produced seventy years of peace. And in the room where the successor to the Marshall Plan is being decided right now, as the same nation that authored the greatest act of geopolitical generosity in modern history converts every alliance it has into an invoice. Not partisan. Mechanical. Dov also names, on record, where he has watched the same mechanism run in himself. Including in the making of this series. The question this episode carries is not what has gone wrong with the world. Everyone has a theory about that.  The question is: what mechanism is running beneath the decisions that shape it? And whether the same mechanism runs beneath the decisions that shape a single human life.  THE SERIES  What We Want But Refuse To Accept is a ten-episode arc. Next episode: What AI Refuses to Accept About Itself.  Follow the show to receive each episode as it releases. ABOUT DOV BARON  Dov Baron has spent thirty years inside the rooms where leaders, founders, and executives make the decisions that shape organizations.

What if the real obstacle in 3D cell culture and tissue engineering isn't the cells, but the very ground they grow on?For years, cell culture has relied on flat plastic and passive scaffolds. But biology doesn't happen on a petri dish—cells live in three dimensions, surrounded by a dynamic environment that talks back, adapts, and shapes development in ways static gels simply cannot.That's the premise behind MosaMatrix, a novel hydrogel platform designed to transform how we grow cells, engineer tissues, and screen new drugs created by CEO Jan Hunik and CTO Matt Baker.Topics discussed:Why traditional flat, 2D cell culture misses the biological mark and what a responsive cell environment really looks like (00:27)The origins of MosaMatrix and the realization that new, adaptive hydrogels were needed for dynamic cell culture (04:45)What makes the MosaMatrix hydrogel different—and why passive scaffolds fall short (06:12)Mechanical and biological characteristics that define hydrogel performance, from stiffness to stress relaxation (07:48)The company's pivot from 3D tissue printing to focusing on high-throughput 3D cell culture for drug discovery (08:42)Advantages of a non-animal-derived, reproducible matrix for research and industry (10:20)Strategies for obtaining real-world customer feedback and working in consortia with academia and industry partners (11:51)Key hurdles in quality control, reproducibility, and measuring success in the emerging field (16:05)Challenges with standardizing organoids and the move to smaller, more automatable culture systems (17:50)The impact of automation and data consistency for scaling up 3D cell culture (18:14)Smart insight: MosaMatrix validates its hydrogel not through internal R&D alone, but through direct collaboration with academic and industry partners — testing performance across cell types and culture media. This includes a ~50-company consortium building next-gen 3D cell culture tools and a new consortium improving kidney dialysis with living human cells. The partnerships surface real variables, like how much culture media composition affects results, that continually shape product development.If this conversation got you thinking about biomaterials, scale-out manufacturing, and what it takes to turn a chemistry breakthrough into a fundable company, these episodes explore the same ground from complementary angles.Episodes 221 - 222: From 2D Cultures to Advanced 3D Cell Models for Preclinical Research with Catarina BritoEpisodes 259 - 260: Why Strong Science Isn't Enough to Get Funded: What Investors Actually Look For with Michael RomeEpisodes 265 - 266: From Human Variability to Automated Precision: Accelerating Cell and Gene Therapy Manufacturing Scale-Out with Farlan VeraitchEpisodes 223 - 224: From Cultivated Meat to Chocolate: Rethinking Cellular Agriculture Scale-Up with Steven LangConnect with Jan Hunik and Matt Baker:Emails: matt.baker@mosamatrix.com and jan.hunik@mosamatrix.comWebsite: www.mosamatrix.comLinkedIn Jan Hunik: www.linkedin.com/in/jan-hunik-0183734LinkedIn Matt Baker: www.linkedin.com/in/matthew-baker-0abb981bSupport the show

Welcome to Mysteries to Die For.I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you in the heart of a mystery. All stories are structured to challenge you to beat the detective to the solution. Jack and I perform these live, front to back, no breaks, no fakes, no retakes.In the world's most dangerous working environments it can seem like everything is out to kill you. The equipment you use. The materials you work with. The very air you breathe. Stored energy is a coiled viper waiting for the right moment to lash out. Owners, manufacturers, contractors, and beyond have developed safety protocols to combat STCKY, that is, Stuff That Can Kill You. Gravity, Motion, Mechanical, Electrical, Pressure, Sound, Radiation, Biological, Chemical, Temperature. This season is all about the means of murder as authors put our STCKY detective skills to the test. This is Season 9, Stuff That Can Kill You.This is Episode 14, where heat, pressure, chemical, and mechanical are our STCKY means of death. This is The Rendering of Truth by Chuck BrownmanDELIBERATIONAlone, neither Lena nor Mercer have what it takes to crack the case. But together, and with our help, we can figure out what happened to Eddie Weller and Dale Curtis. Here's the suspect list, in the order we met them:Junior Lattimore, rendering techJohn Reese, plant managerTanya Lowell, accounting clerk and office mateFrank Jackson, rendering foremanDale Curtis, plant foremanHere are the facts that Lena and Mercer have uncovered:• Eddie Weller, newly promoted to Operations Reviewer, went into the rendering pit. The pit was activated and Eddie died from a lethal combination of heat, oxygen deprivation, and mechanical grinding.Eddie was formerly an operating tech and, in his new role, signed off on the maintenance documentation. He knew the paperwork or safety protections he knew was needed to enter the confined space.No one offered an explanation of why Eddie would have entered the pit.Junior Lattimore did not look into the pit before he turned it on. He had no reason to think anyone was in it.A search of Eddie's desk found evidence of falsified invoices for filters. The invoices were signed by Reese. He added a note to check with DC, interpreted as Dale Curtis.Tanya prepares the invoices for Reese's signature. She said he directed her to process the invoices for his approval, saying they were a rush job from a new vendor.Reese said he signs the invoices Tanya prepares, implying he did not scrutinize or even read the documents.A torn piece of bank statement found in the trash in the office Eddie and Tanya shared had a sizable balance but no nameCurtis later heard Eddie in his office talking to someone about stealing, but couldn't see who as the door was closed.Mercer recognized Steam Line #4 was tampered with. The line then failed catastrophically killing Dale Curtis. He was found with a pipe wrench in the vicinity.A drawing of the plant found in Eddie's apartment also highlighted Steam Line #4 as out of compliance on maintenance inspection.Lena and Mercer speculate the person or persons behind the “accidents” had to have an understanding of the plant to orchestrate both deaths.Tanya had knowledge and access to the invoice, but does not have knowledge of the plant. Tanya and Eddie shared an office and were friends. Eddie spent time with her son.Junior had knowledge of the rendering area, but did not have access to accounting. Junior lost out on the promotion to Eddie and was bitter.Junior had no apparent problem with Dale Curtis.Jackson had knowledge of the rendering area. Recently separated, he and Tanya were dating. He often when to her office, and even helped straighten Tanya's desk for her. He was there in the office when Eddie died.Reese claims his knowledge of the plant isn't detailed. He signed off on plant expenditures.Whose greed was paid for with the lives of Eddie Weller and Dale Curtis?MEMBERSHIPS!Mysteries to Die For now has memberships!

Send us Fan MailThe Truth About Pool Coatings, Surface Preparation, and Why Failures Really HappenEveryone wants to know which pool paint is the best.Wrong question.In this episode of Talking Pools, Rudy Stankowitz takes listeners far beyond the paint can and into the science of coating failures, adhesion, compatibility, moisture, and surface preparation. Using the recent attention surrounding the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool as a jumping-off point, Rudy explains why nearly every coating failure investigation asks the same question:What happened before the paint ever touched the surface?From chlorinated rubber and acrylics to epoxy and high-build epoxy systems, this episode explores the strengths, weaknesses, and proper applications of today's most common swimming pool coating systems. More importantly, it explains why even the most expensive coating in the world can't overcome poor preparation.If you've ever wondered why one painted pool lasts fifteen years while another begins peeling after a single season, this episode connects the dots between chemistry, application, environmental conditions, and good old-fashioned craftsmanship. Along the way, Rudy shares real-world stories, practical advice, and plenty of his signature Gen X humor.Whether you're a pool service professional, contractor, facility manager, or simply fascinated by how coatings succeed—or fail—this is one of the most comprehensive discussions on swimming pool coatings ever presented on the Talking Pools Podcast. In This Episode Why asking "What's the best pool paint?" is the wrong question  The lessons every pool professional can learn from the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool  Why compatibility between coating systems matters  Understanding chlorinated rubber, synthetic rubber, acrylic, epoxy, and high-build epoxy coatings  Why surface preparation determines the success or failure of almost every coating system  How to properly inspect an existing painted pool before recoating  The importance of documenting coating failures before disturbing the evidence  Mechanical adhesion vs. chemical adhesion explained in plain English  Why moisture remains one of the biggest enemies of successful coating applications  Proper cleaning, sanding, acid washing, and contamination removal  How silicone contamination, chalking, oils, and residue interfere with adhesion  Why weather, humidity, dew point, and curing conditions matter  Understanding recoat windows and why missing them creates problems  Common causes of blistering, peeling, and coating delamination  Adhesive failure vs. cohesive failure vs. substrate failure  ASTM testing methods used during professional coating failure investigations  Why coating failures should be investigated—not guessed Key Takeaways✔ The most expensive coating cannot overcome poor surface preparation.✔ Compatibility between existing and new coating systems is critical.✔ Surface contamination is often invisible but can completely prevent proper adhesion.✔ Moisture inside concrete can remain long after the surface appears dry.✔ Proper environmental conditions are just as important as choosing the right coating.✔ Good investigators document the failure before removing any evidence.✔ Most coating failures begin long before the pool is filled with water.✔ Successful coating jobs are built on preparation—not luck.Memorable Quotes"Surface preparation isn't part of the job. Surface preparation is the job.""Compatibility matters. Chemistry matters. Guessing doesn't.""Painting a pool isn't hard.

In this short episode from the Bry-X stage of the 7th Annual HVACR Training Symposium, Tessa Murry gives a class on building science basics: The House Always Wins! Tessa is a building scientist who works with TEC. Tessa's class is about how the house puts HVAC contractors in difficult situations. When people have indoor air quality or comfort concerns, the HVAC often takes the blame, even if the issue is with the house. There are usually several little home improvement decisions that create unintended consequences and add up. In many cases, when there aren't exhaust fans in kitchens and bathrooms, moisture stays inside and can cause indoor condensation. Air-sealing, adding or removing insulation, replacing windows, replacing furnaces with a different efficiency model, and even moving people in can all affect comfort and air quality. Comfort issues and complaints, such as hot and cold spots, often point to issues with the house, not necessarily just the HVAC system. Pressure boundaries and thermal boundaries in the building envelope need to be aligned, continuous, and consistent for HVAC systems to do their job well, but many houses don't have that. Those boundaries need to be clear between attached spaces like attics or garages. Those spaces create problems with energy efficiency and comfort, and humidity is a problem in some climates. Garages also have fumes we want to keep out of the house.  Heat moves from hot to cold, and air moves when there is a pressure differential. Mechanical equipment and wind can drive pressure differentials. If there is a pressure difference and a hole, there will be air movement. In the winter, cold air sinks and displaces warm air, which rises and creates positive pressure at the top of the house. That air will push through gaps around can lights, vents, and more. When that humid air gets into a cold attic, the moisture will condense on the roof decking surface and cause an ice dam to form. In the summer, hot, humid air comes into the structure. Regardless of the house's issues with air movement, it's on HVAC contractors to make the decisions that put the occupant's health and safety first, including calling the contractors with the knowledge to diagnose the house's problem.   Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

Mechanical sex rarely fails because of a missing trick. It fails because our attention slides into “work the body, get the result” and the nervous system feels it. We sit down with returning guest Alexey Welsh to talk about sexual presence, mindful sex, and how a single shift in intention can turn a flat routine into something that feels alive, erotic, and deeply nourishing.We break down two common approaches to sex: pleasure as entertainment versus sex as nourishment, connection, and energy. Alexey explains why this is not an either or choice and why real depth can include passion, intensity, and orgasm without being driven by a goal. We unpack what “mechanical” sex looks like in real life, how performance anxiety and porn shaped sex education can lead to desensitization, and why the body responds more to authentic communication than to friction and speed.Then we get practical: creating sexual energy like cooking, learning to absorb what is already good, and expanding what counts as sex so every moment does not have to escalate to penetration or a finish line. We also challenge the popular idea that erotic desire needs mystery to survive, and offer a better long term foundation built on culture, respect, and a shared practice of connection.If you want better sex, deeper intimacy, and a healthier relationship with pleasure, hit play, share this with a partner or friend, and subscribe so you do not miss the next conversation.

CardioNerds co-chairs Dr. Dinu Balanescu and Dr. Billy Joe Mullinax, along with FIT lead Dr. Shiavax Rao, discuss the evolving landscape of randomized controlled trials in pulmonary embolism with Dr. Jay Giri, interventional cardiologist, Associate Professor of Medicine, and Director of the Cardiovascular Catheterization Laboratories at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. This episode examines the historical evidence behind systemic thrombolysis, the emergence of catheter-directed therapies and mechanical thrombectomy, and the landmark RCTs – STORM-PE, PEERLESS, HI-PEITHO, and PEERLESS II – that are reshaping intermediate-risk PE management. The discussion highlights challenges in PE trial design, the critical importance of clinical deterioration as an endpoint, and why this era represents an unprecedented wave of evidence generation in PE.

Pearls: Systemic thrombolysis in intermediate-risk PE reduces hemodynamic decompensation but at the cost of ~1.5–2% intracranial hemorrhage risk – a near-zero net benefit that has driven the search for safer catheter-based alternatives. “Focus on clinical deterioration, not mortality” – Due to crossover design in contemporary PE RCTs, control-arm patients who decompensate are rescued with advanced therapies, biasing mortality toward the null. Clinical deterioration is the most informative endpoint to watch in HI-PEITHO, PRAGUE-26, and PEERLESS II. HI-PEITHO is the first large RCT to demonstrate that catheter-directed fibrinolysis plus anticoagulation significantly reduces the composite of PE-related death, cardiorespiratory decompensation, or PE recurrence versus anticoagulation alone (RR 0.39; 95% CI 0.20–0.77; P=0.005), with no intracranial hemorrhage in either arm. The four major upcoming/recently reported PE RCTs (HI-PEITHO, PRAGUE-26, PEERLESS II, PE-TRACT) enroll progressively different risk populations – from the most enriched (HI-PEITHO) to the most permissive (PE-TRACT, which includes intermediate-low risk patients) – enabling a nuanced understanding of which patients benefit most from intervention. PE device clearance follows a fundamentally different FDA pathway than structural heart devices (single-arm safety/efficacy studies vs. mandated RCTs), yet market forces and clinical need have ultimately driven industry and government to sponsor large-scale RCTs – a lesson in how evidence development can evolve organically alongside regulatory frameworks. Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Shiavax Rao. Question #1: What is the current evidence behind advanced PE therapies? Systemic thrombolysis: Sixteen RCTs over 40 years (1972–2014) enrolling nearly 2,000 patients have studied systemic thrombolysis in intermediate-risk PE. The landmark PEITHO trial (n=1,006) showed that tenecteplase reduced the composite of death or hemodynamic collapse (2.6% vs. 5.6%; P=0.015), driven primarily by reduced hemodynamic decompensation (1.6% vs. 5.0%; P=0.002). However, this came at the cost of increased major bleeding (6.3% vs. 1.5%; P

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, our faculty, Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Ted Achacoso, Boomer Anderson, Dr. Allen Bookatz, and Jodi Duval, tackle the recent trend of therapeutic plasma exchange and "blood washing". Moving past the mainstream marketing of plasmapheresis as a longevity cure-all, the team breaks down why mechanical filtering is only a surface-level fix for microplastic toxicity. From the autonomic anxiety caused by biological lockdown to the clinical application of precision metabolomics, this roundtable shifts the conversation from invasive procedures to measurable, cellular safety signals.   Join us as we delve into: The Protein Corona: How circulating microplastics masquerade as pathogens, triggering localized purinergic signaling and the release of extracellular ATP. The Cell Danger Response (CDR1): Why the body halts oxidative phosphorylation and locks down the cell membrane when invaded, and why blood washing can't touch toxins stuck inside tissue matrices. The Problem with Plasmapheresis: The clinical realities and physiological costs of invasive vascular filtering, including the removal of essential immunoglobulins and clotting factors. The True Detox Protocol: Utilizing organic carbon binders (humic and fulvic acids), phase two liver conjugation (glucuronidation/sulfation), and barrier integrity support to properly excrete microplastics. Pulsed Antioxidant Support: When and why to use targeted NAD, alpha-lipoic acid, NAC, and ubiquinol to transition cells out of a defensive lockdown.   This episode is for you if: You are considering expensive therapies like plasmapheresis to clear environmental toxins.
