We discuss migraines with one of the authorities in the field. Hosts: Benjamin Friedman, MD of Montefiore Brian Gilberti, MD https://media.blubrry.com/coreem/content.blubrry.com/coreem/Migraines.mp3 Download Leave a Comment Tags: Neurology Show Notes Initial Approach to Diagnosing Migraines: Differentiating between primary headaches (migraine, tension-type, cluster) and secondary causes (e.g., subarachnoid hemorrhage). The importance of patient history and reevaluation after initial treatment. Recognizing the unique presentation of cluster headaches and their management implications. Effective Acute Migraine Treatments: First-line treatments including anti-dopaminergic medications like metoclopramide (Reglan) and prochlorperazine (Compazine), and parenteral NSAIDs like ketorolac (Toradol). The limited role of triptans in the ED due to side effects and less efficacy compared to anti-dopaminergics. The use of nerve blocks (greater occipital nerve block and sphenopalatine ganglion block) as effective treatments without systemic side effects. Treatments to Avoid or Use with Caution: Diphenhydramine (Benadryl): Studies show it does not prevent akathisia from anti-dopaminergics nor improve migraine outcomes. IV Fluids: Routine use is not supported unless the patient shows signs of dehydration. Magnesium: Conflicting evidence with some studies showing no benefit or even harm. Managing Refractory Migraines: Second-line treatments including additional doses of metoclopramide combined with NSAIDs or dihydroergotamine (DHE). Considering opioids as a last resort when other treatments fail.

How do we get our child from the playground to the car or from dinner to bed without a tantrum? For kids, going from one thing to the other is tough. They get upset and we get upset. But once we recognize that these are daily transitions and they happen throughout our lives, we can work with our children (and on ourselves) to lessen the difficulty and set them up with great life-skills.  Dr. Rebecca Schrag-Hershberg, Clinical Psychologist and author of the “Tantrum Survival Guide,” joins Lynn and Justin for an insightful conversation about easy and actionable ways to transition children from one activity to another.  And in our Parenting Story of the Day, Marie Holmes shares the touching story of how she and her son got through the really big transition of changing schools.  Dr. Rebecca Schrag-Hershberg A mother of two, Dr. Shrag-Herschberg is a leading clinical psychologist, parent coach and author of the “Tantrum Survival Guide: Tune In To Your Toddler's Mind (and Your Own) to Calm the Craziness and Make Family Fun Again.” She is the former Director of Training and Quality for Healthy Steps at Children's Hospital at Montefiore, an infant and toddler preventive mental health program that gained national and international attention for its integration of early childhood professionals within primary care pediatrics.

What do the Mings, The Rameses', the Romanovs, the Assads and the Clintons have in common? They are all family dynasties who, for better or worse, have influenced the history of the world.Historian and writer Simon Sebag Montefiore is a formidable storyteller, and his detailed and engaging works about historical figures such as Catherine the Great, Stalin and the Romanovs have earned him readers across the globe. In his most recent book, The World – A Family History of Humanity, his focus is no less than the entire world history, told through some of the most central family dynasties.More than an ambitious and grand project, Montefiore's latest colossal publication is also an exploration and re-thinking of how we tell history. “World history often has themes, not people; biography has people, not themes,” as he writes in the book's introduction.By emphasizing the family, he is able to combine the two – the great historical events with the stories of the people in the midst of it all. He also gives more space to the role of women, and tells parts of the world's history that might not be as well known among most Norwegian and European readers, such as Sundiata Keita's kingdom in Mali, Itzcoatl and the founding of the Aztek kingdom, and Ashoka and the Mauyrya empire in ancient India.Diving into world history with Montefiore on stage is Shazia Majid, award-winning journalist and author of the book Ut av skyggene (“Out of the Shadows”), about the first generation of Pakistani migrant workers in Norway.

This week we review a recent paper from last 2023 about outcomes of cardiac transplantation in the adult congenital heart patient (ACHD). Little has been written on this topic until this very robust and large scale report. How do single ventricle ACHD patients fair at transplant and how do they compare to non-ACHD heart transplant recipients? Why might 1 and 3 year outcomes not be a 'fair' method of assessing outcomes in this very high risk patient group? How do HLHS patient outcomes compare with other single ventricles? Are there better ways to measure risk in this patient group and how might the data in this work inform risk stratification and management of failing Fontan patients in whom transplantation is being considered? These are amongst the questions posed this week to the week's expert, Dr Daphne Hsu who is Professor of Pediatrics at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine at The Children's Hospital at Montefiore. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jacc.2023.06.037For those interested in learning more about Dr. Hsu, take a listen to episode #166 from June, 2021:https://www.spreaker.com/episode/pediheart-podcast-166-a-conversation-with-professor-daphne-hsu--45144274

Cristina Lora"Figli di un unico blu"Ronzani Editorewww.ronzanieditore.it«Ogni mio dipinto dava voce alle vite sciorinate dalla strada: dei senzatetto, delle prostitute o di chi, come me, era stato messo al bando dal giudizio onnipotente di detentori di una verità assoluta».È il sessantaseiesimo compleanno di Agnese, ma lei non lo ricorda, del suo passato non rammenta nulla; solo gli inservienti di Casa Serena e un piccolo pacchetto regalo consegnato in forma anonima le parlano di questo giorno: una camicia a fiori, delle rose e un libro, Figli di un unico blu, che una volontaria della casa di cura inizia subito a leggerle. L'ascolto della storia della diciottenne Paola, scappata di casa per fuggire alla violenza del padre e all'indifferenza della madre, avrà sulla memoria immobile di Agnese degli effetti imprevedibili. Destini che si incrociano e si perdono, vite sospese che si riconoscono l'un l'altra e si abbracciano nella comune lotta per rimarginare le ferite. Paola, che trova rifugio tra i capannoni di una zona industriale, abbattuta dall'efferato odio paterno per le sue scelte e che non perderà mai la speranza di risollevare la sua vita e seguire le sue passioni; Amedeo, rinnegato da chi amava, spogliato di qualsiasi illusione e poi abbandonato a se stesso; Giosuè, un bambino dagli occhi blu che attraversa la vita con il sorriso, colmo di gioia, naturalmente portato a voler aiutare gli altri, che si affeziona a Paola e Amedeo tanto da considerarli la sua famiglia; e Daniel, giovane imprenditore dal passato doloroso che da solo si prende cura del suo fratellino dagli occhi blu e la cui rara generosità ridonerà a Paola e Amedeo fiducia nel mondo. In un mondo che, nel corso della narrazione, farà scoprire al lettore tante vite che chiedono di essere ascoltate.Un romanzo corale contemporaneo fatto di dolore e affetti, di sofferenza e riscatto, di ingiustizia e speranza; l'esordio letterario di Cristina Lora che le ha già valso importanti riconoscimenti come inedito, tra i quali: Premio letterario “Sandomenichino”, Premio letterario internazionale “Montefiore”, Premio letterario internazionale “Città di Sarzana”, Concorso nazionale di poesia e narrativa “Vittorio Alfieri”, Premio nazionale di poesia e narrativa “Alda Merini”, Concorso internazionale “Molteplici Visioni d'Amore – Cortona Città del Mondo”, Premio internazionale di letteratura “Per troppa vita che ho nel sangue”, Concorso letterario nazionale per poeti e narratori “Le parole arrivano a noi dal passato”, Premio letterario nazionale “Set Art”. Cristina Lora (Valdagno, 1969), non riesce a star lontana dalla vita.

Our guest this week is a talented designer who is redefining the world of hospitality design. With over 25 years of experience, she has lent her expertise as an Adjunct professor at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. Please welcome to the show Senior Director, Design & Project Management at Marriott International, Linda Laucirica!Linda joins Host Dan Ryan for an in depth conversation on design philosophy. Linda shares the importance of starting with a cohesive design strategy before creating a narrative, the necessity of having an elevator pitch, and how the hospitality industry can create more welcoming spaces in the healthcare industry.  Takeaways:  Hospitality is the desire to give comfort and joy. True hospitality comes from a celebration of shared human experience, and a desire to connect through that humanity with others The intersection of storytelling and design, with an emphasis on editing and conveying clear messages, is crucial in creating impactful narratives. This is important in full-service lifestyle brands, where aspirational design plays a key role in brand identity. When conducting research and designing for a brand, it is essential to effectively summarize the concept in a concise elevator pitch. This helps align design decisions with the brand's vision and ensures unique project outcomes. Creating successful narratives for "soft brands" requires a different approach than for "hard brands". Designers must create a strategy that directly connects with the brand's vision, ethos, and personality, before jumping into crafting a compelling narrative. Technology has impacted the design process, shifting from manual creation to digital tools and 3D visualization. This transformation emphasizes the need for designers to adapt, understand scale, and create spaces that resonate with our human experience. Hospitality focused design has an important role in the healthcare industry. By creating welcoming hospitals and treatment centers, you can leave a positive impact on someone's journey to healing.  For Mariott's W Hotels there are three tenets of design: form follows fantastic, tactile materiality, and clean maximalism. These three elements combine to create unique experiences for guests.  Quote of the Show:“That message also wants to have an emotional connection to who you're speaking with, right? Otherwise why write the story? Why share your thoughts?” - Linda LauciricaLinks: Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/lindalaucirica/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lauciricadesign/  Website: https://www.marriott.com/marriott/aboutmarriott.mi  Shout Outs: 01:38 - McCartan Design: http://www.mccartan.com/  03:26 - The Peanuts 04:10 - NJIT: https://www.njit.edu/  06:07 - Cornell: https://www.cornell.edu/  09:22 - Starwood Hotels 09:49 - Westin Hotels: https://westin.marriott.com/  09:49 - Autograph Collection Hotels: https://autograph-hotels.marriott.com/  09:50 - Le Méridien Hotels: https://le-meridien.marriott.com/  09:51 - Renaissance Hotels: https://renaissance-hotels.marriott.com/  09:52 - Design Hotels: http://designhotels.com/  09:53 - Tribute Hotels: https://tribute-portfolio.marriott.com/  09:56 - Gaylord Hotels: https://www.gaylordhotels.com/  10:19 - W Hotels: https://w-hotels.marriott.com/  19:31 - Dune 20:59 - Rockwell Group: https://www.rockwellgroup.com/  21:01 - Barnes And Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/  21:29 - Pinterest 21:30 - Instagram 22:01 - Revit 27:04 - Woolly Mammoth Theatre: https://www.woollymammoth.net/  27:05 - Arena Stage: https://www.arenastage.org/  28:17 - New York School Of Interior Design: https://www.nysid.edu/  29:50 - Mohegan Sun: https://mohegansun.com/  30:10 - David Rockwell 30:46 - Children's Hospital at Montefiore: https://www.cham.org/  31:43 - Carl Sagan 34:32 - Lionel Ohayon: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lionelohayon/  34:35 - Memorial Sloan Kettering: https://www.mskcc.org/  36:58 - W Union Square: https://www.whotelsnewyork.com/property/w-new-york-union-square/  44:02 - Steve Higgins 44:08 - Theresa Fatino: https://www.fatinodesign.com/  Ways to Tune In:  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0A2XOJvb6mGqEPYJ5bilPX Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/defining-hospitality-podcast/id1573596386 Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZGVmaW5pbmdob3NwaXRhbGl0eS5saXZlL2ZlZWQueG1s Amazon Music: ​​https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/8c904932-90fa-41c3-813e-1cb8f3c42419

Noa Nessim & Libby Wetterer, 3rd year family medicine resident physicians and members of the Committee of Interns and Residents (CIR) who, in affiliation with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), are a part of organizing efforts at the Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx. First, Sam runs through updates on NYC's crackdown on not abusing homeless people, Hakeem Jeffries coming out on top for Democratic minority leader, and more, before diving into Rep. Mary Peltola's pitch-perfect response to her party's (Democrats) undermining of Rail labor, centering the needs of workers over the minimal profit of an already booming industry. Then, Drs. Nessim and Wetterer join as they dive right into Montefiore Medical Center's sudden divestment from the Bronx communities that they have served for ages, shutting down clinics left and right while shifting funding towards regions served by private insurance agencies, before moving to the relationship between Montefiore Medical Center and its employees, walking through the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and social unrest on spurring organizing among residents and interns, and how Montefiore took advantage of the COVID squeeze on the healthcare industry by keeping their demands of doing more with less even as the pandemic eased. Next, they dive into the driving desire of a new moral compass behind the healthcare industry, exploring the networks of Doctors' and Nurses' unions across the US, and the impact that successfully unionizing Montefiore Medical Center would have, before wrapping up the interview by tackling McKinsey consultants' role in spurring this disinvestment from their communities and exploring the best actions for the general public to take moving forwards. Sam also dives deeper into the horrendous mainstream coverage of the labor bargaining between freight rail workers and their employers, with all of the emphasis going to the impact these workers would have on our economy, and none of it on why companies with record-breaking profits are actively sacrificing it. And in the Fun Half: Sam watches Charlie Kirk grapple with Kari Lake's defeat as he once again fails to do the one thing he was hired to do (turn the youths conservative), David from Washington speculates on the recent missiles that fell in Poland, and Adam from LA explores how deep the GOP has poisoned the well of discourse around LGBTQ+ people. John from Cleveland discusses Jon Stewart's interviews and why liberals lend credence to credentials, and Sam dives deep into Stephen Crowder's incredibly cold open as he tiptoes through addressing the Kanye discourse while still pleasing his white supremacist followers. Sam also talks with Hannah about coverage of the Tigray War and the difficulty of speaking without expertise, plus, your calls and IMs!
