Before we can cultivate patience, we must first understand its opposite. This session will invite you to mindfully observe the physical sensations, thoughts, and emotions that arise when impatience takes hold, allowing you to create a gentle space for recognition without judgment. Ancient Wisdom Weave: Drawing on Buddhist principles of observing suffering and its origins, you will be guided to begin to see impatience as a form of subtle aversion to the present moment. THIS WEEK'S THEME: "The Patient Heart: Cultivating Inner Stillness" Welcome to "The Patient Heart: Cultivating Inner Stillness," a 7-part meditation series designed to help you rediscover the profound power and peace found in patience. In a world that often demands instant gratification, true tranquility lies in our ability to wait, to observe, and to trust in the natural unfolding of life. Drawing upon the timeless wisdom of ancient traditions, this series will guide you to cultivate patience not as passive waiting, but as an active, compassionate engagement with the present moment. Each episode offers a unique lens to understand and embody this vital virtue, fostering inner resilience and a deeper connection to the rhythm of existence. YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY DURING THIS WEEK'S SERIES This is episode 1 of a 7-day meditation series titled, "The Patient Heart: Cultivating Inner Stillness" episodes 3311-3316. Day 1:  Patience Visualization Day 2:  Patience Affirmation: "I unfold with patience, presence, and peace." Day 3:  Patience Breathing Visualization Day 4:  Lotus Mudra for Patience Day 5:  Fourth Chakra focus for Patience Day 6:  Patience flow meditation combining the week's techniques. Day 7:  Weekly review meditation and closure. WEEKLY CHALLENGE: The Pause Pivot Challenge THE PAUSE (Awareness): When you feel that familiar tug of impatience (the urge to rush, frustration, annoyance, a sigh, tapping your foot, etc.), immediately internally say to yourself: "Aha! A Patience Opportunity!" Take one deep, intentional breath. Notice the sensations in your body and mind without judgment. This is your "Pause." THE PIVOT (Choice): After that single breath, consciously choose a patient response, even if it's small. This isn't about solving the problem instantly, but shifting your internal state.

Story at-a-glance New data from the largest clinical trial on this topic shows no improvement in symptoms, hospitalizations, or survival with fluid restriction in chronic heart failure patients Patients who drank more than the advised limit of 1,500 ml had no higher risk of death, hospitalization, kidney injury, or emergency interventions Fluid-restricted patients reported much higher thirst distress, which contributes to stress hormone release, reduced treatment compliance, and increased emotional strain Over-restricting both water and salt leads to dangerously low sodium levels, while getting enough potassium helps your kidneys manage hydration and prevent harmful fluid buildup Researchers recommend giving fluid goals based on your symptoms, medications, and how you feel — this allows you more control and fewer restrictions

Join the University of Washington Surgical Palliative Care Team for their final episode of this series — a dual journal review and clinical challenges discussion on assessing medical decision-making capacity. Using Dr. Paul Applebaum's foundational framework, the team outlines the four key criteria for evaluating capacity and brings the topic to life through two contrasting standardized patient scenarios. This episode highlights why capacity assessment is not only relevant but essential for surgeons navigating complex, high-stakes decisions.  Hosts:  Dr. Katie O'Connell (@katmo15) is an associate professor of surgery at the University of Washington. She is a trauma surgeon, palliative care physician, director of surgical palliative care, and founder of the Advance Care Planning for Surgery clinic at Harborview Medical Center, Seattle, WA.

Story at-a-glance A specific gut microbiome pattern was found to help predict future heart attacks in coronary heart disease patients, offering a new tool beyond cholesterol and blood pressure monitoring Researchers identified 10 key bacterial strains tied to heart attack risk and created a scoring system that flags high-risk individuals before symptoms appear Patients with high-risk gut profiles showed more inflammation, insulin resistance, and higher levels of dangerous compounds like trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) and endotoxins Global research confirms gut bacteria influence heart disease through microbial metabolites like short-chain fatty acids, bile acids, and lipopolysaccharide-related immune responses Natural interventions like berberine, dietary shifts, and fecal transplants show promise in reshaping gut health and reducing cardiovascular risk

Today's Promise: 2 Peter 3:9 With all the challenges and pressures you face, I want to remember that God is patient with you. Almost every spiritual giant in the Bible had a significant setback or failure. For example, the night Jesus was arrested, Peter had a chance to make a stand for Christ. The good news is that God understands your weakness. He knows your weakness and frailty. God is patiently working in your life. He knows your weaknesses and your failures, but is committed to bringing you into a closer relationship with Him.

Gastroenterologist Shamita B. Shah discusses her article, "How doctors can help IBD patients manage symptoms between visits." Addressing the rising prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in the U.S., Shamita highlights the challenges patients face managing unpredictable symptoms like pain and diarrhea, even while on therapy, often leading to undertreatment and complications. She outlines three key ways physicians can empower patients for better self-management between appointments: First, engaging patients to track symptoms using tools like wearable devices or digital platforms incorporating patient-reported outcomes (PROs), citing studies showing these methods can predict flares and significantly reduce emergency room visits (by 48 percent) and hospitalizations (by 78 percent). Second, educating patients on the diet-disease connection, recommending approaches like the Mediterranean diet and the use of food diaries (potentially via apps) to identify individual triggers. Third, providing patients with a comprehensive health maintenance checklist, such as the one from the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation, to ensure accountability for crucial screenings (cancer, mental health) and vaccinations, especially important for those on immunosuppressive therapies. Actionable takeaways focus on physicians proactively equipping patients with these tracking tools, dietary guidance, and checklists to foster better disease control and quality of life.

Let's be honest—branding gets oversimplified. For most practices, “branding” means a logo, some colors, maybe a new website. You spend the money, get the files, and check the box. But here's the problem: that's not your brand. That's the tip of the iceberg. What makes patients choose you, trust you, and tell others about you?

Christian Espinosa, founder of Blue Goat Cyber and leading voice in medical device cybersecurity, joins Etienne Nichols to unpack the urgent and often misunderstood topic of cybersecurity in MedTech. From FDA's 2023 regulatory overhaul to real-world hacking scenarios that could harm patients, Christian provides practical advice for innovators, RA/QA professionals, and software teams. He also shares why waiting until the last minute on cybersecurity could cost startups millions—or even kill a project entirely.Whether you're a quality professional trying to build compliant systems or an innovator racing toward FDA submission, this episode lays out exactly what you need to know to stay ahead of cyber threats and within regulatory guardrails.Key Timestamps:00:01 – Intro to guest Christian Espinosa and Blue Goat Cyber06:28 – Why medical device cybersecurity is different from traditional IT security11:49 – Real-world hacking example: acne laser device turned skin-burner13:57 – FDA expectations post-September 2023: what changed17:12 – Secure boot: a microcontroller mistake that derailed a launch20:35 – Common cybersecurity vendor mistake MedTech companies make23:40 – SBOM: Software Bill of Materials and why it's legally critical27:58 – Cyberattacks in hospitals: assuming a hostile network35:44 – AI in medical devices: data bias and cybersecurity challenges41:10 – Developers ≠ cybersecurity experts: the training gap nobody talks about45:20 – What RA/QA professionals need to know now49:30 – Why cybersecurity must be iterative, not a final-phase add-on55:20 – Espinosa's final advice for MedTech professionals57:52 – The story behind “Blue Goat Cyber”Standout Quotes:“Cybersecurity for medical devices isn't about data breaches—it's about patient harm. You could paralyze someone or misdiagnose sepsis. This isn't theoretical.”— Christian Espinosa, on the real risks of insecure devices“Most developers don't understand cybersecurity. We assume they do—but that's like expecting an architect to be a locksmith.”— Christian Espinosa, on why so many devices fail security assessmentsTop Takeaways:Cybersecurity isn't just about data—it's about patient safety. From burning skin to missed sepsis diagnoses, vulnerabilities in devices have real-world harm potential.FDA now requires more than just a basic security plan. Post-September 2023 rules mandate testing (SAST, DAST, fuzzing), SBOMs, and risk assessments tied to patient harm.Start cybersecurity planning during the requirements phase. Hardware like microcontrollers must support secure boot and other protections—retrofits can cripple product plans.Iterate cybersecurity like any core development activity. One-time testing near submission is too late; build security into your pipeline just like QA or usability.Traditional cybersecurity vendors aren't enough. Many fail to meet FDA's nuanced expectations for medical devices, causing costly submission rejections.References & Resources:Christian Espinosa on LinkedInBlue Goat CyberEtienne Nichols on LinkedInMedTech 101 – Understanding SBOM (Software Bill of...

In this episode, Crystal Broj, Enterprise Chief Digital Transformation Officer at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), shares how the organization is transforming healthcare through AI-powered voice bots, ambient listening, and digital front door innovations. She discusses the challenges and successes of implementing a new patient check-in system and deploying an automated AI agent in their patient access center. Crystal notes that one of the biggest lessons is the value of starting small—piloting technology, demonstrating ROI and KPIs, and scaling gradually. MUSC's AI voice bot – Emily – handles after-hours calls and appointment rescheduling, generating over $3 million in collections and reducing call handling time. Ambient tools like DAX have helped physicians cut “pajama time” by 37%, speed up chart closure, and improve clinical documentation. She also highlights how digital tools in the patient access center enhance scheduling and virtual care access, creating a seamless digital front door.  Crystal stresses the need for agile implementation, effective change management, and aligning technology with real workflows to drive lasting impact.

After hours clinics are being hailed by the government as a solution to over-stretched and under-pressure emergency departments. But while the government unveiled it's plan to spend 164 million on expanding the clinics - there was no detail on how much it would cost patients using the services. Checkpoint has spoken to one woman who's after hours clinic visit in Palmerston North cost her $260. Jimmy Ellingham reports.

BUFFALO, NY – May 19, 2025 – A new #research paper was #published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on May 9, 2025, titled “Analytical validation of a circulating tumor DNA assay using PhasED-Seq technology for detecting residual disease in B-cell malignancies.” In this study, a team from Foresight Diagnostics led by first author Nina Klimova and corresponding author Laura Hyland validated a new DNA-based blood test designed to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) in patients with B-cell cancers. This assay uses a highly sensitive method called Phased Variant Enrichment and Detection Sequencing (PhasED-Seq) to find tiny fragments of tumor DNA in the blood. Its ultra-sensitive detection capabilities offer a powerful tool for early cancer detection, monitoring treatment response, and predicting cancer reappearance. B-cell lymphomas, such as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), are among the most prevalent blood cancers. Although many patients respond to initial treatment, up to 40% relapse. Standard monitoring methods such as imaging scans often miss low levels of cancer cells, creating a need for more precise tools. This study introduces a non-invasive blood test that improves the detection of MRD, a critical factor in guiding follow-up care and early intervention. The test works by tracking unique groups of mutations known as phased variants in tumor DNA. These mutations are more specific to cancer and allow for highly accurate identification of tumor fragments in the bloodstream. The PhasED-Seq-based MRD assay was tested on three types of samples. First, blood plasma from healthy individuals was used to confirm the test does not give false positives. Second, researchers created controlled samples by mixing tumor DNA from lymphoma patients with healthy DNA to measure how sensitive and precise the test is. Finally, blood samples from patients with B-cell lymphoma were used to compare the new test to an existing method. Across all sample types, the PhasED-Seq-based MRD assay demonstrated exceptional performance—capable of detecting fewer than one cancer DNA molecule per million normal DNA fragments. It also demonstrated a very low false positive rate and over 96% reproducibility across different laboratory conditions. Compared to an existing method, the new PhasED-Seq assay showed more than 90% agreement in positive results and nearly 78% agreement in negative results. In cases where the tests disagreed, the new method aligned more closely with actual clinical outcomes, including whether patients relapsed or stayed in remission. “The background error rate of the PhasED-Seq-based MRD assay was 1.95E-08, or 1.95 mutant molecules in 100 million informative molecules.” The findings support the use of PhasED-Seq-based MRD assays in routine clinical practice. It could be especially useful for identifying patients who need additional treatment even when imaging results appear normal. This aligns with updated clinical guidelines that encourage the use of blood-based DNA tests to supplement traditional scans in lymphoma care. This study offers strong evidence that the PhasED-Seq-based MRD assay is a precise, reliable, and clinically relevant tool. By detecting signs of cancer earlier and more accurately, it may help clinicians tailor treatments to individual patients and improve long-term outcomes in B-cell malignancies.

When Jae's mother faced amputation due to Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI) an advanced stage of Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) in rural Louisiana, she refused to accept it as the only option. Despite being told there were no alternatives, Jae discovered the truth: not all PAD specialists have the skills to treat advanced cases. This episode comes at a crucial time. A May 2025 study from @SCAI reveals Black patients with CLI face a 46% higher chance of amputation and are 10% less likely to see vascular specialists before treatment. CLI is more deadly than breast, colon, and prostate cancer COMBINED—and outcomes worsen dramatically after amputation. Listen as Jae shares how she: • Fought against medical gaslighting • Found help through the @GlobalPADAssociation's Leg Saver Hotline (1-833-PAD-LEGS) • Connected with CLI specialist Dr. Amit Amin who successfully opened her mother's arteries This story could save someone's leg—or life.

When someone accused of a crime is found unable to aid and assist in their own defense, they are sent to the Oregon State Hospital for an evaluation. After that, they often need to spend time at a residential treatment center until they are fit to stand trial. A new rule from the Oregon Health Authority requires residential treatment facilities in the state to accept those patients ahead of any who might be on their waiting list, setting aside their normal admissions standards. Attorneys for the Oregon Council for Behavioral Health and six residential treatment providers filed a petition with the Oregon Court of Appeals to block that rule.  We hear from Heather Jefferis, executive director of the Oregon Council for Behavioral Health, about the challenges faced by behavioral health providers in Oregon.

Pediatrician and holistic wellness expert Noemi Adame discusses her article, "Having a female doctor is better for your health, but not for hers." She highlights research indicating patients often experience better outcomes—including lower mortality, readmission, and post-surgical complication rates—when treated by female physicians, potentially linked to factors like longer visits and stronger adherence to guidelines. However, Noemi contrasts this with the significant personal toll on female doctors, who face higher burnout rates, a greater burden of uncompensated tasks like EMR messages (receiving 25 percent more requests), and a concerning lack of the longevity advantage seen in the general female population. She critiques the corporate medical system for failing to adequately support or compensate female physicians for the qualitative differences in their care delivery and the associated emotional labor. Noemi strongly advises female colleagues to protect their own well-being by considering alternatives to corporate employment, such as Direct Primary Care (DPC), independent contracting, or building a personal brand, while also acknowledging the unique challenges women face in setting boundaries within these models. Actionable takeaways emphasize the critical need for female physicians to prioritize self-care, implement sustainable practice systems, and advocate for themselves, whether inside or outside traditional employment structures.
