durée : 00:04:26 - Le Reportage de la rédaction - L'association Médecins solidaires a ouvert un nouveau centre de santé au Mas-d'Agenais, dans le Lot-et-Garonne. L'association sollicite les médecins généralistes pour qu'ils se déplacent dans des déserts médicaux, une semaine par an.
In this riveting conversation, Dr. Stephen Riggs shares his remarkable journey from conventional primary care physician to pioneering metabolic health specialist. After 30 years of traditional practice, everything changed when his wife handed him "The Obesity Code" by Dr. Jason Fung. Initially skeptical, Dr. Riggs tested the low-carb approach with his patients and witnessed transformations that defied his medical training: patients reversing type 2 diabetes, coming off insulin, and experiencing substantial weight loss in mere months.Dr. Riggs reveals how he built a comprehensive metabolic health clinic within a traditional healthcare system by meticulously tracking patient outcomes and demonstrating remarkable cost savings—over $550,000 annually in medication reductions from just 220 patients. He discusses his "Low Carb Bootcamp" program that achieves a 73% diabetes reversal rate and how his team approach incorporates health coaches, nutritionists, and food addiction specialists.Perhaps most fascinating is Dr. Riggs' observation that 95% of patients with food addiction see their addiction resolved within 8-12 weeks on a ketogenic diet—without specific addiction counseling. He offers practical insights on protein requirements, implementing lifestyle changes in America's heartland, and navigating resistance from colleagues and insurance companies.This conversation offers a powerful glimpse into how evidence-based nutritional interventions are quietly revolutionizing healthcare from within the system, bringing joy back to medicine by truly healing patients rather than merely managing their decline.BIG IDEA"Nutrition went from being basically irrelevant to me—I got almost zero nutritional training, what little I did was probably wrong—and now it's the biggest tool in my toolbox by far."Stephen Riggs, MD Contact InfoPersonal Website:www.livingbyDesignKetonutrition.com Metabolic Clinic Site:MercyOne.org/LivingbyDesign Send Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

Contributor: Taylor Lynch, MD Educational Pearls: Dilutional Hyponatremia: Occurs when there is an excess of free water relative to sodium in the body. Causes a falsely low sodium concentration without a true change in total body sodium. Commonly seen in DKA: Hyperglycemia raises plasma osmolality. Water shifts from the intracellular to extracellular space. This dilutes serum sodium, creating apparent hyponatremia. Corrected sodium calculation: Use tools like MDCALC, or apply this formula: Add 1.6 mEq/L to the measured sodium for every 100 mg/dL increase in glucose above 100. Clinical relevance: Considering corrected sodium in DKA is crucial, as the lab value may not be reflective of actual sodium depletion. True severe hyponatremia can lead to complications like seizures May require treatment with hypertonic saline. References: Fulop M. Acid–base problems in diabetic ketoacidosis.

Hacer lo básico y hacerlo bien, es una buena forma de enfrentar pacientes en estado grave y en ambientes complejos. Las compresiones torácicas son la técnica de reanimación más básica que podemos hacer con un paciente en Paro Cardiorespiratorio (PCR) estas mantendrán un flujo de sangre a cerebro y corazón aumentado las posibilidades de sobrevivir de la víctima. Tienen algunos criterios que debemos cumplir para que puedan ser de calidad, Frecuencia y Profundidad son los más conocidos. Los dispositivos de retroalimentación son elementos que nos ayudan a objetivar los valores de estas variables y permitirnos entregar una RCP de alta calidad. Su uso esta recomendado hace bastante tiempo en escenarios de simulación y adquisición de habilidades de RCP ¡Pero son tan útiles en la atención del paciente en PCR?Marcan una diferencia real?Son preguntas muy válidas a las que te invito podamos juntos buscar una respuesta. En este episodio hablamos de un estudio que puede cambiar tu forma de ver estos dispositivos de retroalimentación. Espero que lo disfrutes! David Larrondo Fonseca.

Solo aging, defined as aging without the traditional support of a spouse, adult children, or close relatives, is a growing demographic reality for many individuals over 55. Far from a negative concept, solo aging is increasingly seen as an empowering journey that emphasizes proactive planning, community engagement, and the creation of a robust "personal village" to ensure a secure, purposeful, and joyful later life. This article explores the key aspects of solo aging, including its definition, the importance of planning, building a support network, addressing challenges, and available resources.Reframing Solo AgingSolo aging encompasses a broad group, including those who are single, widowed, divorced, estranged from family, or whose children are unable or unwilling to provide care. As Steve Gurney notes, "We are all aging solo…there's only one person aging in my body, and it's me." The term, coined by Sara Zeff Geber, has evolved from focusing solely on childless individuals to anyone lacking a reliable support system. Unlike the outdated and disheartening term "elder orphan," "solo aging" is empowering, encouraging individuals to take ownership of their future with pride and agency. Even those with families are encouraged to plan for solo aging, as partners may pass away, and adult children may not be available or suitable as caregivers.Proactive planning is the cornerstone of successful solo aging, preventing crises and providing peace of mind. As experts emphasize, "Planning for solo aging is much easier and far less stressful if it is done BEFORE a crisis." A comprehensive plan spans multiple life domains: health, finances, legal matters, housing, social connections, purpose, and spiritual well-being. Carol Marak's "aging well circle" offers a framework for assessing these areas. Financial foresight is particularly critical, involving proactive saving, consulting financial advisors, and preparing for potential care costs. Such planning empowers individuals to maintain control over their lives and minimize burdens on others.A "personal village" is the heart of solo aging, providing not just assistance but also purpose, joy, and belonging. Creating this network requires intentional effort, as solo agers must think differently about relationships. This village includes friends, neighbors, community members, and professionals, with an emphasis on age-diverse connections for mutual support. Practical strategies include:Inventorying Connections: List current contacts and identify gaps to address.Nurturing Relationships: Foster reciprocity and reach out to both close and casual contacts, as unexpected allies often emerge.Engaging in Shared Interests: Join clubs, volunteer, or take classes to connect over passions like gardening or book clubs, especially helpful for introverts.Leveraging Online Communities: Platforms like MeetUp, Stitch, NextDoor, and Facebook groups (e.g., "Elder Orphans," "NYC Solo Agers") facilitate connections, while Senior Planet and GetSetUp offer classes fostering friendships.Balancing Vulnerability and Boundaries: Be open to deep connections while setting clear expectations.This interdependence, rather than fierce independence, is key to thriving as a solo ager.Finding a trustworthy medical or financial power of attorney (POA) is a significant challenge. Trustworthiness is paramount, and potential proxies—whether family, friends, or professionals like licensed fiduciaries, aging life care managers, or elder law attorneys—require relationship-building over time. Patient advocates and daily money managers can also assist in navigating healthcare and financial systems.

Story at-a-glance Vitamin D deficiency is widespread, especially in northern regions with limited sunlight. At Vibra Hospital in North Dakota, 44% of patients had dangerously low levels below 20 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) To correct vitamin D deficiency, Vibra Hospital implemented a structured vitamin D protocol that significantly improved patient recovery, reduced complications, and supported better overall outcomes Maintaining vitamin D levels between 60 and 80 ng/mL supports immune function, cardiovascular health, cognitive performance, hormone balance, and blood sugar regulation, as well as lowers risk of certain cancers Sun exposure is the most natural vitamin D source.

Should you be re-treating that root canal—or referring it out? What are the red flags that scream “specialist only”? How do you confidently remove GP without compromising disinfection? Dr. Ayman Al-Sibassi joins Jaz in this endo-packed episode to help you navigate the tricky world of root canal re-treatments. From solvent selection and GP removal techniques to assessing case difficulty, they break down everything a GDP needs to know to make smart, confident decisions. You'll learn how to spot the cases you should be tackling, which ones to send to your endodontist, and what tools and techniques will make the re-treatment process smoother and safer. Because not all re-treatments are created equal—and some are surprisingly simple once you know what to look for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apMtcuNTLqI Watch PDP233 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl: A crack in a bonded ceramic restoration isn't necessarily a failure! Just like we accept cracks in natural enamel, we can also accept cracks in ceramics—as long as it's been properly bonded. Shoutout to Dr. Pascal Magne for this powerful mindset shift! Need to Read it? Check out the Full Episode Transcript below! Key Takeaways Specialist training in endodontics includes a variety of surgical skills. The complexity of root canal retreatments varies significantly. General dentists can perform some retreatments, but should assess complexity carefully. Patient consent is essential, especially regarding potential unrestorability. Communication about fees should be clear and upfront with patients. Red flags for retreatment include poor coronal seal and previous treatment quality. CBCT imaging is becoming increasingly important in endodontic practice. Collaboration between general dentists and specialists enhances patient outcomes. Many referrals stem from straightforward cases that are poorly managed. Using solvents can aid in GP removal but should be approached cautiously. Single visit treatments are often preferred for patient convenience. Adequate disinfection is crucial, sometimes necessitating a second visit. The survival rate of root canal-treated teeth is comparable to implants. Patient age and overall health should guide treatment decisions. Understanding the difference between success and survival in endodontics is essential.

We are still in close contact and now a lot of the family has moved to Michigan. I called one friend yesterday and she told me about their family in Syria (including cousins who have been killed).
