In this episode of the Building PA Podcast, co-hosts Jon O'Brien and Chris Martin celebrate five years of podcasting while diving into a critical topic: opioid awareness and pain management in the context of surgery. They are joined by Brand Newland, the CEO and co-founder of Goldfinch Health, who brings a wealth of knowledge and a fresh perspective on how to navigate the challenges associated with opioid prescriptions following surgery.Brand begins by addressing the opioid crisis, emphasizing the need for a shift in how we approach pain management, particularly in surgical settings. He shares insights from his experience as a pharmacist and discusses the founding of Goldfinch Health in 2018, which aims to improve the surgical experience by advocating for better pain management practices that reduce reliance on opioids.The conversation highlights the importance of multimodal pain management strategies, which include using non-opioid medications like acetaminophen and ibuprofen, as well as innovative approaches such as the TLC method (Tylenol, Lyrica, and Celebrex) to manage pain effectively before and after surgery. Brand explains how these methods can lead to quicker recovery times and fewer complications, ultimately allowing patients to return to work sooner—an average of 35 days faster than national benchmarks.Jon and Chris share their personal experiences with opioid prescriptions, illustrating the common issue of being prescribed excessive amounts of pain medication post-surgery. Brand reassures listeners that there are alternatives and encourages them to advocate for themselves and their loved ones when it comes to pain management.The episode also touches on the financial implications of better pain management practices, with Brand discussing a recent study that shows a significant return on investment for employers who implement Goldfinch's programs. This is particularly relevant for those in the construction industry, where physical labor is a daily reality, and managing pain effectively can lead to improved productivity and overall well-being.As the discussion progresses, Brand introduces the concept of enhanced recovery protocols and the importance of preparing for surgery in a way that minimizes pain and anxiety. He shares practical tips, such as staying hydrated and consuming clear liquids before surgery, which can help improve recovery outcomes.Towards the end of the episode, Brand discusses Goldfinch's new initiative, the Billion Pill Fudge Program, aimed at reducing the number of leftover opioid pills after surgery. He emphasizes the importance of safe disposal methods to prevent accidental poisoning, particularly among children.

“Raghav's expression for discomfort is laughter, counterintuitively. We call it his cranky laughter.” Sanath RameshImagine not being able to tell the people around that you are in pain. Or more accurately, imagine that you have no way of telling whether your child is in pain. If that child is usually happy and laughing, imagine your horror when you figure out that laughter means “ow.”For Brittany, while Evie can tell her when she is in pain, Evie is so used to the pain that she may not even mention it until it is extreme. And sometimes that is too late to avert a crisis.Pain management is a very difficult problem in the best of circumstances. For Sanath and Ramya, it gets even more complicated. The treatments they have found that work tend to lose effectiveness after a while. And sometimes, the rebound pain seems worse.In this episode, Sanath opens up about their relentless struggle to keep Raghav comfortable and the extreme toll it takes on everyone in the family.

A revolution in pain management has arrived. The FDA's approval of Suzetrigine in January 2025 introduces the first non-opioid analgesic for moderate to severe pain in over twenty years. This breakthrough medication targets the voltage-gated sodium channel, NAV1.8, effectively blocking pain signals at their source before they reach the brain.What makes Suzetrigine remarkable is its precision. With over 30,000-fold selectivity for NAV1.8 channels, it delivers powerful analgesia without affecting the brain or heart, eliminating addiction risk, and minimizing side effects. Clinical trials involving over 2,100 patients demonstrated pain relief comparable to opioid-acetaminophen combinations but with a safety profile similar to placebo. For the more than 50% of surgical patients who experience moderate to severe postoperative pain, this non-addictive alternative represents a genuine breakthrough. Looking ahead, an exciting pipeline of additional NAV1.8 channel blockers, including intravenous formulations, promises to further transform perioperative pain management.Have you struggled with limited options for managing your patients' postoperative pain? Subscribe to the Anesthesia Patient Safety Podcast for more on groundbreaking developments like Suzetrigine that are changing how we approach patient care and safety.

In this episode, we discuss the evidence, safety, and place in therapy of Journavx® (suzetrigine), a newly approved analgesic with a unique non-opioid mechanism of action and additional considerations for its use. Key Concepts Suzetrigine is a first in its class NaV1.8 sodium channel blocker approved for short-term (14 days or less) pain relief in adults with moderate-to-severe pain. Unlike opioids, suzetrigine is non-sedating and non-dependence forming. Suzetrigine is taken as a whole pill without cutting, crushing, or chewing following a particular dosing schedule where the first dose is taken on an empty-stomach. The most common side effects of suzetrigine include pruritus, muscle spasms, increased CPK, rash, and transient (reversible) eGFR decrease. Suzetrigine goes through CYP3A metabolism and therefore has significant interactions with CYP3A inducers and inhibitors. Use with strong inhibitors and moderate to strong inducers is not recommended. Dose reduction of suzetrigine is required if used with moderate inhibitors of CYP3A. Although not formally adopted in a guideline recommendation, suzetrigine's current place in therapy can be moderate-to-severe acute pain relief in adult patients after NSAIDs/APAP options are exhausted, but before or in place of opioid therapy.

Episode 80: Balancing Relief and Risk: Pain Management and Opioid Prescribing in Children and Adolescents Evaluation and Credit: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/medchat80 Target Audience This activity is targeted toward primary care physicians and advanced providers. Statement of Need This podcast will address effective pain management in adolescents and teens and the utilization of opioids and risk reduction. Pediatricians may not have up-to-date knowledge and skills to effectively balance pain management with opioid safety in children and adolescents. Current practice often reflects underuse of multimodal pain strategies, inconsistent application of opioid prescribing guidelines, and limited screening for substance use disorders (SUDs) in youth. This educational activity addresses the gap between current and optimal practice by enhancing pediatricians' competence in evidence-based opioid prescribing and their performance in implementing risk mitigation strategies in clinical settings. Objectives Describe evidence-based guidelines for prescribing opioids in a manner that optimizes both pain treatment and safety for children and adolescents (“youth”). Discuss evidence-based strategies for the prevention, screening, and treatment for substance use disorders in youth.

Understanding its origins and the strategic interventions available can significantly improve patient outcomes. Here, we delve into the approach to diagnosing and treating shoulder pain, based on an insightful discussion between two seasoned practitioners exploring the anatomy and pathology of shoulder complications. Recognizing the Root Cause of Shoulder Pain Shoulder pain often masks its true source. It might manifest as discomfort between the shoulder blades, often misleading practitioners to consider muscle strain as the primary cause. However, deeper exploration usually reveals that the disc is a more likely culprit. In cases where a patient describes pain akin to "a knife between the shoulder blades," the immediate focus should be on discs 4-5 and 5-6. A strategic approach targets the discs to alleviate the most severe pain, followed by nerve treatment, which is crucial in reducing persistent discomfort. The Transition from Frequency to Strategy in Treatment Treatment has evolved significantly over the past two decades. The transition from a frequency-based to a strategy-focused approach reflects a deeper understanding gained from years of practice and evolving patient outcomes. This involves assessing shoulder mechanics holistically and addressing sequelae like nerve irritation and muscle imbalance. In chronic and acute cases, the intervention sequence becomes critical: reducing nerve irritation, restoring proper mechanics, and ensuring the subscapularis and pec minor are addressed to prevent further injury. The Role of the Environment and Lifestyle in Pain Management Environmental and lifestyle factors contribute profoundly to shoulder health. Misalignment in everyday activities or prolonged stress due to poor posture can exacerbate shoulder pain and complicate recovery. It's vital for practitioners to investigate these daily life contributors—such as ergonomics during computer use or mundane activities like lifting objects. Encouraging patients to maintain activity logs can help identify subtle but impactful triggers; practitioners can then guide them to modify such activities to prevent flare-ups. Comprehensive, Collaborative Care Collaboration in care can't be overstated. For chronic conditions that stubbornly resist resolution, a comprehensive team approach can uncover the unseen nuances of the patient's condition. It's about combining FSM with other therapeutic modalities to address not only the mechanical but also the nutritional and emotional aspects affecting patients' conditions. Practitioners are encouraged to embrace a collaborative model where knowledge and treatment strategies are shared and integrated across disciplines to optimize patient recovery and reduce recurrence. Empowering Patients Through Education Patient education is indispensable in managing shoulder pain. Practitioners should communicate clearly about how seemingly trivial actions can have cascading effects on their condition. Understanding that no magical cure exists but rather a pathway to gradual recovery helps demystify the process and empowers patients. Encouraging self-awareness and providing them with the tools to recognize early symptoms and lifestyle triggers are essential steps toward sustaining their wellness. Building a Decades-Long Legacy With this strategic and compassionate approach, FSM and related treatments promise an enduring legacy in modern medicine. Bridging the gap between frequency-specific therapies and comprehensive care strategies continues to expand, offering medical practitioners robust methods to enhance patient outcomes. By continuously updating their knowledge and collaborating across specialties, practitioners can ensure that they are not only solving but also learning from each new case they encounter.

In this episode, I sat down with Katie Dabrowski to explore the relationship between neuroscience, psychology, and injury rehab. We discussed how pain is not just a physical sensation but a complex experience influenced by emotional states, past experiences, and neuroplasticity. We also touched on the importance of movement, progressive overload, and understanding the psychological aspects of pain management. We closed out the episode with a discussion about the future of training as healthcare and the need for a holistic approach to rehab that goes beyond just addressing pain.TakeawaysNeuroscience and psychology are crucial in understanding rehab.Pain is a complex experience influenced by many factors.Neuroplasticity allows the brain to adapt and recover from injuries.Experiences shape our pain perception and responses.Understanding pain can reduce anxiety and improve outcomes.Movement is essential in managing pain and building resilience.Progressive overload applies to both physical and emotional challenges.Fear of pain can lead to avoidance and further issues.Building confidence through manageable challenges is key.The future of rehab should focus on holistic health, not just pain.Get In Touch With Katie: https://www.instagram.com/ktdabrowski/Old Bull Athletics: https://www.instagram.com/oldbullathletics/Get 4 FREE Weeks of Hybrid Training: https://assembleperformance.com/4-week-training-plan-page Contact Me IG: https://www.instagram.com/justinsjones/ Email: justin@assembleperformance.com Website: https://assembleperformance.com/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@justinjonesfitness
