In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, Diane C. McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FNCS, FCCM, is joined by Aarti Sarwal, MD, FAAN, FNCS, RPNI, FCCM, and Brian L. Erstad, PharmD, FCCP, FASHP, MCCM, to discuss the 2026 guidelines for neuromuscular blockade in adult patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. The guidelines, “Society of Critical Care Medicine Guidelines for the Administration of Neuromuscular Blockade in Adults With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome,” were published in the March issue of Critical Care Medicine. Drs. Sarwal and Erstad discuss how the evidence in two key trials, ACURASYS and PETAL-ROSE, has helped shape the recommendations provided in the SCCM guidelines. Despite how influential these trials were in shaping the recommendations, only conditional recommendations were made due to low or very low quality of evidence. The lack of evidence proved to be a driving factor in including a call to action in the guidelines. Future research priorities largely revolve around precision medicine and finding more patient-specific interventions to improve patient outcomes. Aarti Sarwal, MD, FAAN, FNCS, RPNI, FCCM, is a professor of neurology and the division chair of neurocritical care at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) School of Medicine in Richmond, Virginia, USA. She is also an associate editor of Critical Care Medicine, secretary of the American Society of Neuroimaging, and director of VCU-Wake Forest neuro-ultrasound courses. Brian L. Erstad, PharmD, FCCP, FASHP, MCCM, is a tenured professor and interim dean at the University of Arizona R. Ken Coit College of Pharmacy in Tucson, Arizona, USA. He is also a center investigator for the Center for Health Outcomes, a member of the BIO5 Institute and Comprehensive Center for Pain & Addiction and Pharmacoeconomics Research Center, and a codirector for the Arizona Clinical and Translational Research Graduate Certificate Program.

Bom dia, Boa tarde, Boa noite no Mundo do Conhecimento! E se eu te dissesse que aquela sua avaliação clínica, o bom e velho 'olhômetro' na hora de decidir extubar uma criança, não apenas está ultrapassado, mas pode estar colocando o seu paciente pediátrico em sério risco de complicações respiratórias no pós-operatório? Você estaria pronto para mudar a sua conduta hoje mesmo? Bem-vindos ao Medicina do Conhecimento! Por aqui, a conversa vai muito além das 4 paredes do centro cirúrgico. A gente fala de inovação, tendências, dicas práticas e, claro, qualidade de vida — porque cuidar do outro começa por cuidar da gente também. E o melhor: compartilhar conhecimento nunca será dividir, mas multiplicar. Então vem comigo pra mais um assunto sem fronteiras, nesse universo incrível do Medicina do Conhecimento! Antes de mergulharmos fundo na discussão de hoje, eu tenho um recado muito importante: se você é do tipo que gosta de absorver o conteúdo de diferentes formas, saiba que você pode ouvir, ler e assistir a esse resumo completo e estruturado lá no Blog do Anestesiador. O material está incrível, super visual e pronto para facilitar a sua rotina. É só acessar e conferir! www.anestesiador.substack.com Hoje, nós vamos dissecar um verdadeiro divisor de águas na nossa especialidade. Vamos falar sobre as novíssimas Diretrizes Europeias de 2025 da ESAIC e da ESPA sobre o uso, a monitorização e a reversão do bloqueio neuromuscular em crianças anestesiadas. Esse não é só mais um artigo. É uma mudança de paradigma. Neste episódio, eu vou sintetizar para você o que realmente importa para a sua prática clínica. Você vai descobrir: • Por que a monitorização neuromuscular quantitativa deixou de ser um 'luxo' e passou a ser uma exigência absoluta; • Como justificar a necessidade real do bloqueador na intubação pediátrica; • A forma correta e racional de usar os reversores – como o Sugammadex e a Neostigmina – baseada em números, e não em achismos; • E os cuidados críticos na hora de manejar populações de altíssimo risco, como os neonatos e pacientes com miopatias raras ou doenças neurológicas. Se você trabalha em centro cirúrgico, em UTIs pediátricas ou atende emergências, a forma como você avalia a recuperação neuromuscular vai mudar depois dessa conversa. Ajeite o fone de ouvido, fica comigo até o final, e vamos juntos elevar o padrão de segurança dos nossos pequenos pacientes. Vamos lá!

This week on Walk and Roll Live – Disability Stories, Doug Vincent and Addie Rich welcome Jeana Nunez — life and business transformation coach, mom of four, woman of faith, and a warrior living with a rare neuromuscular disease. After years of misdiagnosis, ER visits, and hospital stays, Jeana's strength and mobility can change without warning. But instead of allowing unpredictability to define her, she chose to transform it into purpose. In this powerful conversation, Jeana shares: What it's like to live with a rare, unpredictable neuromuscular condition How misdiagnosis and medical trauma reshaped her mindset Balancing motherhood, ADHD, faith, and entrepreneurship Letting go of perfection and embracing “purpose over perfection” How she turned breakdowns into breakthroughs The heart behind her movement, Hot Mess to Holy Success Her empowering women's event, Let Her Rise This episode is for anyone facing chronic illness, disability, burnout, or life's unexpected detours. Jeana's story reminds us that surrender isn't weakness — it's strength. And resilience isn't about control — it's about faith, flexibility, and forward motion. Life may be unpredictable… but your purpose doesn't have to be. Life, Limitless. Walk and Roll Live 

Episode 238 NPTEFF Peripheral vs Central Fatigue in Neuromuscular Conditions

I really enjoyed sitting down with my friend Bridget, who somehow managed to earn both a PhD and an MD after basically crushing every STEM class she ever took. She now helps patients improve their neuromuscular health, but what really makes her special is how deeply she listens. Bridget treats every patient like they truly matter, creating space for them to open up about what they're feeling — sometimes uncovering issues they didn't even realize they needed help with. It's such a powerful reminder that great medicine is as much about connection as it is about credentials. Please visit www.MyHomeIsSpecial.com for the full project and follow @KBevPhoto on Instagram to see what I'm up to.

Welcome to the NeurologyLive® Mind Moments® podcast. Tune in to hear leaders in neurology sound off on topics that impact your clinical practice.In this Mind Moments episode, Jeff Chamberlain, PhD, joins the podcast during Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Awareness Week to provide clinical and translational perspective on the evolving landscape of DMD biology and therapy. Chamberlain, professor at the University of Washington School of Medicine and Director of the Senator Paul D. Wellstone Muscular Dystrophy Cooperative Research Center in Seattle, reflects on aspects of Duchenne pathophysiology that may still be underappreciated, including evidence that disease processes begin earlier than once recognized and the growing importance of immunologic factors in shaping progression and therapeutic response. The conversation also explores how neuromuscular specialists should approach treatment timing and combination strategies as gene-targeted therapies expand, the evolving interpretation and limitations of biomarkers such as creatine kinase and dystrophin expression, and what emerging gene therapy platforms may signal for care heading into 2026 and beyond.Looking for more Neuromuscular discussion?

Careful assessment and individualized care, provided by a skilled multidisciplinary care team, are emphasized in the holistic approach to neuropalliative care, which considers physical, psychological, social, spiritual, and existential aspects for people with neuromuscular diseases. In this episode, Gordon Smith, MD, FAAN, speaks with David J. Oliver, PhD, FRCP, FRCGP, FEAN, author of the article "Neuropalliative Care in Neuromuscular Disorders" in the Continuum® December 2025 Neuropalliative Care issue. Dr. Smith is a Continuum® Audio interviewer and a professor and chair of neurology at Kenneth and Dianne Wright Distinguished Chair in Clinical and Translational Research at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Virginia. Dr. Oliver is an honorary professor of Tizard Centre at the University of Kent in Canterbury, United Kingdom.

Dr Smith: Hello, this is Dr Gordon Smith. Today I've got the great pleasure of interviewing Dr David Oliver about his article on neuropalliative care and neuromuscular disorders, which appears in the December 2025 Continuum issue on neuropalliative care. David, welcome to the Continuum podcast, and please introduce yourself to our audience. Dr Oliver: Thank you. It's a pleasure and a privilege to be here. I'm a retired consultant in palliative medicine in the UK. I worked at the Wisdom Hospice in Rochester for over thirty years, and I'm also an honorary professor at the University of Kent in Canterbury in the UK. I've had a long interest in palliative care in neurological diseases. Hopefully we can talk about a bit later. Dr Smith: I really look forward to learning a little bit more about your path and experiences. But I wonder if, before we get into the meat of neuropalliative care with a focus on neuromuscular, if maybe you can kind of set the stage by just defining palliative care. I mean, my experience is that people think of this in different ways, and a lot of folks think- hear palliative care, and they immediately go to end-of-life care or comfort care. So, what- how should we think about maybe the discipline of palliative care or neuropalliative care? Dr Oliver: I see palliative care as very much responding to people's needs, whether that's physical needs, psychological needs, social or spiritual or existential. So, it can be much earlier in the disease progression. And I think particularly for neurological diseases, early involvement may be very important. Dr Smith: That was actually going to be my first substantive question, really, was when to begin the conversation and what does that look like and how does it evolve over time. You have a really great figure in the article that kind of emphasizes the various stages within a patient's journey that, you know, palliative care can become involved. But I wonder if you could use ALS as a good example and describe what that looks like from when a patient is first diagnosed with ALS through their course? Dr Oliver: I think particularly in ALS at the beginning, soon after diagnosis, someone may have a lot of distress and a lot of questions that they need answering. This is a disease they've not had any contact with before. And they don't understand what's going on, they don't understand the disease. So, there may be a great need to have the opportunity to talk about the disease, what may happen, what is happening, how it's going to affect them and their family. As think time goes on, there may be later they develop swallowing problems, and that will need to be talking about a feeding tube and gastrostomy. And again, there may be a lot of issues for the person and their family. As they deteriorate, they may have respiratory problems and need to have discussion about ventilatory support, either by PAP, noninvasive ventilation, or even tracheostomy. And again, I think that's a big issue that needs wide discussion. And then it may be at the final few months of the disease, where they are deteriorating, that they may have increased needs, and their families may have those needs after the death. And I think often families bereaved from someone with a neurological disease such as ALS need a great deal of support, having many mixed emotions. There may be a feeling of relief that they're not involved in that caring, but then a feeling of guilt that they shouldn't be having those feelings. So, I think that can happen over a period of… what with ALS it may be two, three, four years, but it may be similar changes over time with any patient with a neurological disease. It may be ten or fifteen years with Parkinson's or five to ten years with a progressive supranuclear palsy, but there'll be this similar need to look at palliative care during their disease progression. Dr Smith: So, I'm curious at the time of diagnosis of ALS, how far out in the future do you provide information? So a specific question would be, do you talk about end-of-life management? In my experience, ALS patients are sometimes interested in knowing about that. Or do you really focus on what's in front of you in the next three to six months, for instance? Dr Oliver: I think it's both. Obviously, we need to talk about the next three to six months, but often giving patients the opportunity to talk about what's going to happen in the future, what may happen at the end of life, I think is important. And I think a disease like ALS, if they look it up on the Internet, they may have a lot of very distressing entries there. There's a lot about how distressing dying with ALS is. And actually confront those and discuss those issues early is really important. Dr Smith: So of course, the other thing that comes up immediately with an ALS diagnosis---or, for that matter, with any other neurodegenerative problem---is prognosis. Do you have guidance and how our listeners who are giving a diagnosis of ALS or similar disorder should approach the prognostication discussion? Dr Oliver: It's often very difficult. Certainly in the UK, people may have- be a year into their disease from their first symptoms before they're diagnosed, and I've seen figures, that's similar across the world. So, people may be actually quite way through their disease progression, but I do think we have to remember that the figures show that at five years, 25% of people are still alive, and 5 to 10% are still alive at ten years. We mustn't say you are going to die in the next two or three years, because that may not be so. And I think to have the vagueness but also the opportunity to talk, that we are talking of a deterioration over time and we don't know how that will be for you. I always stress how individual I think ALS is for patients. Dr Smith: One of the other concepts that is familiar with anyone who does ALS and clearly comes through in your article---which is really outstanding, by the way. So, thank you and congratulations for that---is the importance of multidisciplinary teams. Can you talk a little bit about how neuropalliative care sits within a multidisciplinary care model? Dr Oliver: I think the care should be multidisciplinary. Certainly in the UK, we recommended multidisciplinary team care for ALS in particular, from the time of diagnosis. And I think palliative care should be part of that multidisciplinary team. It may be a member of the team who has that palliative care experience or someone with specialist experience. Because I think the important thing is that everyone caring for someone with ALS or other neuromuscular diseases should be providing palliative care to some extent: listening to people, discussing their goals, managing their symptoms. And a specialist may only be needed if those are more complicated or particularly difficult. So, I think it is that the team needs to work together to support people and their families. So, looking at the physical aspects where the physiotherapist or occupational therapist may be very important, the psychologicals are a counsellor or psychologist. The social aspects, most of our patients are part of wider families, and we need to be looking at supporting their carers and within their family as well as the person. And so that may involve social work and other professionals. And the spiritual, the why me, their fears about the future, may involve a spiritual counsellor or a chaplain or, if appropriate, a religious leader appropriate to that- for that person. So, I think it is that wider care provided by the team. Dr Smith: I'm just reflecting on, again, your earlier answers about the Continuum of neuropalliative care. Knowing your patient is super valuable here. So, having come to know someone through their disease course must pay dividends as you get to some of these harder questions that come up later during the disease progression. Dr Oliver: I think that's the very important use of palliative care from early on in the diagnosis. It's much easier to talk about, perhaps, the existential fears of someone while they can still talk openly. To do that through a communication aid can be very difficult. To talk about someone's fear of death through a communication aid is really very, very difficult. The multidisciplinary team, I think, works well if all the members are talking together. So that perhaps the speech therapist has been to see someone and has noticed their breathing is more difficult, comes back and talks to the doctor and the physiotherapist. The social worker notices the speech is more difficult and comes back and speaks to the speech therapist. So, I think that sort of team where people are working very closely together can really optimize the care. And as you said, knowing the person, and for them to know you and to trust you, I think that's important. Those first times that people meet is so important in establishing trust. And if you only meet people when they're very disabled and perhaps not able to communicate very easily, that's really difficult. Dr Smith: I think you're reading my mind, actually, because I was really interested in talking about communication. And you mentioned a few times in your article about voice banking, which is likely to be a new concept for many of our listeners. And I would imagine the spectrum of tools that are becoming available for augmented communication for patients who have ALS or other disorders that impair speech must be impressive. I wonder if you could give us an update on what the state of the art is in terms of approaching communication. Dr Oliver: Well, I think we all remember Stephen Hawking, the professor from Cambridge, who had a very robotic voice which wasn't his. Now people may have their own voice on a communication aid. I think the use of whether it's a mobile phone or iPad, other computer systems, can actually turn what someone types into their own voice. And voice banking is much easier than it used to be. Only a few years ago, someone would have to read for an hour or two hours so the computer could pick up all the different aspects of their voice. Now it's a few minutes. And it has been even- I've known that people have taken their answer phone off a telephone and used that to produce a voice that is very, very near to the person. So that when someone does type out, the voice that comes out will be very similar to their own. I remember one video of someone who'd done this and they called their dog, and the dog just jumped into the air when he suddenly heard his master's voice for the first time in several months. So, I think it's very dramatic and very helpful for the person, who no longer feels a robot, but also for their family that can recognize their father, their husband, their wife's speech again. Dr Smith: Very humanizing, isn't it? Dr Oliver: There is a stigma of having the robotic voice. And if we can remove that stigma and someone can feel more normal, that would be our aim. Dr Smith: As you've alluded to, and for the large majority---really all of our ALS patients, barring something unexpected---we end up in preparing for death and preparing for end of life. I wonder what advice you have in that process, managing fear of death and working with our patients as they approach the end of their journey. Dr Oliver: I think the most important thing is listening and trying to find what their particular concerns are. And as I said earlier, they may have understood from what they've read in books or the Internet that the death from ALS is very distressing. However, I think we can say there are several studies now from various countries where people have looked at what happens at the end of life for people with ALS. Choking to death, being very distressed, are very, very rare if the symptoms are managed effectively beforehand, preparations are made so that perhaps medication can be given quickly if someone does develop some distress so that it doesn't become a distressing crisis. So, I think we can say that distress at the end of life with ALS is unusual, and probably no different to any other disease group. It's important to make sure that people realize that with good symptom control, with good palliative care, there is a very small risk of choking or of great distress at the end of life. Dr Smith: Now, I would imagine many patients have multiple different types of fear of death; one, process, what's the pain and experience going to be like? But there's also being dead, you know, fear of the end of life. And then this gets into comments you made earlier about spirituality and psychology. How do you- what's your experience in handling that? Because that's a harder problem, it seems, to really provide concrete advice about. Dr Oliver: Yeah. And so, I think it's always important to know when someone says they're frightened of the future, to check whether it is the dying process or after death. I've got no answer for what's going to happen afterwards, but I can listen to what someone may have in their past, their concerns, their experience. You know, is their experience of someone dying their memories of someone screaming in pain in an upstairs bedroom while they were a child? Was their grandfather died? Trying to find out what particular things may be really a problem to them and that we can try and address. But others, we can't answer what's going to happen after death. If someone is particularly wanting to look at that, I think that may be involving a spiritual advisor or their local spiritual/religious leader. But often I think it's just listening and understanding where they are. Dr Smith: So, you brought up bereavement earlier and you discussed it in the article. In my experience is that oftentimes the families are very, very impacted by the journey of ALS. And while ALS patients are remarkably resilient, it's a huge burden on family, loved ones, and their community. Can you talk a bit about the role of palliative care in the bereavement process, maybe preparing for bereavement and then after the loss of their loved one? Dr Oliver: Throughout the disease progression, we need to be supporting the carers as much as we are the patient. They are very much involved. As you said, the burden of care may be quite profound and very difficult for them. So, it's listening, supporting them, finding out what their particular concerns are. Are they frightened about what's going to happen at the end of life as well? Are they concerned of how they're going to cope or how the person's going to cope? And then after the death, it's allowing them to talk about what's happened and how they are feeling now, cause I think having had that enormous input in care, then suddenly everything stops. And also, the support systems they've had for perhaps months of the carers coming in, the doctor, the nurse, the physiotherapist, everyone coming in, they all stop coming. So, their whole social system suddenly stops and becomes much reduced. And I'm afraid certainly in the UK if someone is bereaved, they may not have the contact with their friends and family because they're afraid to come and see them. So, they may become quite isolated and reduced in what they can do. So, I think it's allowing them to discuss what has happened. And I think that's as important sometimes for members of the multidisciplinary team, because we as doctors, nurses and the wider team will also have some aspects of bereavement as we face not seeing that person who we've looked after for many years and perhaps in quite an intensive way. So, we need to be looking at how we support ourselves. And I think that's another important role of the multidisciplinary team. I always remember in our team, sometimes I would say, I find this person really difficult to cope with. And the rest of the people around the team would go have a sigh of relief because they felt the same, but they didn't like to say. And once we could talk about it, we could support each other and work out what we could do to help us help the patient in the most effective way. Dr Smith: Well, David, I think that's a great point to end on. I think you've done a really great job of capturing why someone would want to be a palliative care specialist or be involved in palliative care, because one of the themes throughout this conversation is the very significant personal and care impact that you have on patients and families. So, I really appreciate your sharing your wisdom. I really encourage all of our listeners to check out the article, it's really outstanding. I wonder if maybe you might just briefly tell us a little bit about how you got into this space? It's obviously one for which you have a great deal of passion and wisdom. How did you end up where you are? Dr Oliver: I became interested in palliative care as a medical student, and actually I trained as a family doctor, but I went to Saint Christopher's Hospice following that. I had actually had contact with them while I was a medical student, so I worked Saint Christopher's Hospice in South London when Dame Cecily Saunders was still working there. And at that time Christopher's had sixty-two beds, and at least eight of those beds were reserved for people with ALS or other neurological diseases. And I became very involved in one or two patients and their care. And Dame Sicily Saunders asked me to write something on ALS for their bookshelf that they had on the education area. So, I wrote, I think, four drafts. I went from sort of C minus to just about passable on the fourth draft. And that became my big interest in particularly ALS, and as time went on, in other neurological diseases. When I went to the Wisdom Hospice as a consultant, I was very keen to carry on looking after people with ALS, and we involved ourselves with other neurological patients. That's how I got started. Having that interest, listening to patients, documenting what we did became important as a way of showing how palliative care could have a big role in neurological disease. And over the years, I've been pressing again and again for the early involvement of palliative care in neurological diseases. And I think that is so important so that there can be a proper holistic assessment of people, that they can build up the trust in their carers and in the multidisciplinary team so that they can live as positively as possible. And as a result of that, that their death will be without distress and with their family with them. Dr Smith: Well, David, you've convinced and inspired me, and I'm confident you have our listeners as well. Thank you so much for a really informative, enjoyable, inspiring conversation.

In this episode of the Training Science Podcast, Dr. Martin Buchheit is joined by João Ribeiro, Head of Performance, to explore how elite football clubs monitor neuromuscular load and fatigue in real-world conditions.Building on their previous discussion around injury prevention and microcycle design, this conversation shifts focus to the response side of the monitoring equation—how athletes adapt to training and competition. João explains how his department integrates GPS data, wellness metrics, creatine kinase (CK), and low-frequency neuromuscular fatigue testing using Myocene to support daily decision-making, particularly during congested fixture periods.They discuss why passive, objective measures are essential when players cannot reliably perform maximal tests, how data is interpreted at the individual athlete level, and how monitoring is used to inform training availability rather than game selection.The episode also highlights feasibility, staff and coach alignment, and player buy-in as critical factors for successfully implementing advanced monitoring systems in applied football environments.ReferencesMyocene: https://www.myocene.com/Today's speakersDr. Martin Buchheit: https://martin-buchheit.net/João Ribeiro: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jo%C3%A3o-ribeiro-86997955

Click here for Direct Download of the Podcast. 📝 Introduction Ventilator management can feel overwhelming—there are so many knobs to turn, numbers to watch, and changes to make. But before adjusting any settings, it’s crucial to understand why the patient is in distress in the first place, because the right strategy depends on the underlying cause. In this episode, we’ll walk through three different cases to see how the approach changes depending on the problem at hand. ️ The 4 Main Ventilator Settings Tidal Volume (Vt) 🌬️ Amount of air delivered with each breath Typically set based on ideal body weight (6–8 mL/kg for lung protection) Respiratory Rate (RR) ⏱️ Number of breaths delivered per minute Adjusted to control minute ventilation and manage CO₂ FiO₂ (Fraction of Inspired Oxygen) ⛽ Percentage of oxygen delivered Adjusted to maintain adequate oxygenation (goal SpO₂ 92–96%, PaO₂ 55–80 mmHg). PEEP (Positive End-Expiratory Pressure) 🎈 Pressure maintained in the lungs at the end of exhalation to prevent alveolar collapse and improve oxygenation 🧮 Modes of Ventilation AC/VC (Assist Control – Volume Control)How it Works: Delivers a set tidal volume with each breath (whether patient- or machine-triggered).When It’s Used / Pros: Most common initial mode; guarantees minute ventilation; good for patients with variable effort.Limitations / Cons: May cause patient–ventilator dyssynchrony if set volumes don’t match patient’s demand.AC/PC (Assist Control – Pressure Control)How it Works: Delivers a set inspiratory pressure for each breath; tidal volume varies depending on lung compliance/resistance.When It’s Used / Pros: Useful in ARDS (lung-protective strategy), limits peak airway pressures.Limitations / Cons: Tidal volume not guaranteed; must closely monitor volumes and minute ventilation.PRVC (Pressure-Regulated Volume Control)How it Works: Hybrid: set target tidal volume, ventilator adjusts inspiratory pressure breath-to-breath to achieve it (within limits).When It’s Used / Pros: Common default mode on newer vents; combines benefits of VC (guaranteed volume) + PC (pressure limitation).Limitations / Cons: Can increase pressures if compliance worsens.SIMV (Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation)How it Works: Delivers set breaths, but allows spontaneous patient breaths in between (without guaranteed volume).When It’s Used / Pros: Used for weaning; allows patient effort.Limitations / Cons: Risk of increased work of breathing if spontaneous breaths are inadequate.PSV (Pressure Support Ventilation)How it Works: Every breath is patient-initiated; ventilator provides preset pressure support to overcome airway resistance.When It’s Used / Pros: Weaning trials; patients with intact drive who just need assistance.Limitations / Cons: Not a full-support mode; not for unstable patients without spontaneous drive. ♟️ Ventilation Strategies Airway ProtectionLow GCS, seizure, strokeLoss of gag/cough reflexHigh aspiration risk (vomiting, GI bleed, poor mental status)Hypoxemic Respiratory FailureSevere pneumoniaARDSPulmonary edemaInhalation injuryVentilatory (Hypercapnic) Failure / Increased Ventilation DemandSevere metabolic acidosis (DKA, sepsis, renal failure) → need high minute ventilationCOPD, asthma (if decompensating)Neuromuscular weakness (myasthenia, Guillain–Barré, spinal cord injury)Airway Obstruction / Anticipated Loss of AirwayTumor, anaphylaxis, angioedemaFacial or airway traumaPre-op / anticipated deterioration Post Peer Reviewed By: Marco Propersi, DO (Twitter/X: @Marco_propersi), and Mark Ramzy, DO (X: @MRamzyDO) 👤 Show Notes Priyanka Ramesh, MD PGY 1 Internal Medicine Resident Cape Fear Valley Internal Medicine Residency Program Fayetteville NC Aspiring Pulmonary Critical Care Fellow 🔎 Your Deep-Dive Starts Here REBEL Core Cast – Pediatric Respiratory Emergencies: Beyond Viral Season Welcome to the Rebel Core Content Blog, where we delve ...

He has completed a PhD examining the neuromuscular effects and adaptations to maximal strength and power training and is an ASCA Level 3 and Master Coach and in 2023 was awarded Life Membership to ASCA. QUOTES "What is really clear is the neuro side of the neuromuscular is tough. And for good reason… It's because for a long time, our understanding of the neural system and its impact on performance outcomes, because again, that's what's important for us and our athletes, has not really been well understood." "One of the things that we're starting to discover is that your gaze where you are looking, what you're doing with your eyes is a really powerful tool to help prime, for lack of a better word, your extension movement pattern." "The top one percent that are going on to win medals at Olympic Games versus those that are not, it's not so much the force that they can produce or the force at velocity via their agonist muscles but it's how well they can turn off their antagonists and cycle through multiple movements." "I think what we probably initially started to blame CNS fatigue on was more acute type of fatigue, when probably the only people that start to show significant levels of neuromuscular fatigue from a neural perspective are those that have been chronically overtrained for a significant amount of time" "What I found was that the sprint cyclists had much greater ability to damage themselves, to put themselves into even just a short term performance hole compared with rowers based on the type of training they were doing." SHOWNOTES 1) Ben's background and journey in strength and conditioning 2) Understanding the neural side of neuromuscular training 3) Opportunities in training and practical methods to enhance the neural response to training 4) The priming effect of gaze on different movement patterns and the role of coordination in peformance 5) Periodizing methods to enhance neural responses in strength & conditioning sessions 6) Neuromuscular assessments and Ben's thoughts on neural fatigue 7) The use of electrical muscle stimulation in training and the time course of recovery from high neural load activity based on level of athlete 8) Reframing strength as a skill and countermovement jump numbers in beach volleyball PEOPLE MENTIONED Cal Dietz

Squats can be hugely beneficial for healthy aging. In this episode, Ageless Workout coaches Shebah Carfagna and Nate Wilkins focus on how squats mirror everyday movements—like standing from a chair or getting out of a car—supporting independence and strength. We discuss safe technique fundamentals, scalable progressions from sit-to-stand to air squats, time under tension, and advanced options like jump squats. In conversation with Peter Bowes, Nate and Shebah emphasize tailoring variations of a squat to individual abilities, joint health, and goals, with guidance for adding resistance when appropriate. Integrated routines, such as combining squats with walking, as Peter has discovered, can boost engagement and cardio benefits. You should check with your doctor before starting a new exercise program. This episode is the second in our 20-part series, Move for Life, exploring the intersection of longevity, strength training and movement. -----This podcast is supported by affiliate arrangements with a select number of companies.

Curious about the manifestation secrets that can turn your dreams into reality? In this episode of the Manifested podcast, Kathleen Cameron is joined once again by Dr. Steven Resnick, who dives deep into the powerful connection between personal manifestation stories and the subconscious mind. Dr. Resnick shares his fascinating journey of manifesting multiple dream boats, illustrating how the subconscious mind plays a pivotal role in turning desires into tangible outcomes. The episode delves into the neuroscience behind manifestation, highlighting how imagination and sensory experiences influence intentions in the subconscious. Dr. Resnick explains how the subconscious constantly scans your environment, aligning actions with your goals to create what might feel like serendipitous moments. This episode is for you if you're ready to understand how the subconscious mind shapes your reality and how to use that knowledge to manifest your dreams.   Tips in this episode: The subconscious mind is constantly active, processing and valuing experiences in ways that can manifest external realities, even outside conscious awareness. Providing clear and vivid intentions allows the subconscious mind to prioritize and manifest those desires over default or negative patterns. Understanding brain networks, such as the salience and default mode networks, can shed light on how manifestation works from a neurological perspective. Evaluating and altering limiting beliefs can transform personal and professional life experiences by fostering a growth mindset and improving health outcomes.     About The Guest: Dr. Steven Resnick is the Medical Director of the Mount Sinai Comprehensive Stroke Center. Board-certified in Neurology and Vascular Neurology, Dr. Resnick is an attending Neurologist with direct supervision of internal medicine and medical students at Mount Sinai Hospital.
