We have been hearing about in-office (or in-clinic) surgery suites where we can perform intra-ocular surgery such as cataract surgery without having to go to an ASC (ambulatory surgery center). Decades ago we shifted from performing ocular surgery in hospitals to out-patient surgery centers and today that is where we perform most of our cases. Some surgeons are now predicting that we will make another move, from the ASC to an in-office/in-clinic surgery suite. Our podcast guest today is Dr Parag Majmudar who runs the Chicago Cornea practice and is a Professor at Rush University. He has started Syt Surgical to help ophthalmologists start doing OBS: Office Based Surgery. This is something you must learn about. We feature a new podcast every week on Sundays and they are uploaded to all major podcast services (click links here: Apple, Google, Spotify) for enjoying as you drive to work or exercise. The full video of the podcast is here on CataractCoach as well as on our YouTube channel. Starting now we have sponsorship opportunities available for the top podcast in all of ophthalmology.

Thinking and memory changes, also known as cognitive changes, may become more noticeable as Parkinson's disease (PD) progresses. If these symptoms begin to interfere with everyday tasks, it may be a sign of dementia. Understanding the signs of dementia in Parkinson's, along with its different names and variations, is essential for tailoring treatment options to your specific symptoms.  The early signs of dementia may be hard to notice at first. Often, it is the care partner or family member who witnesses the gradual decline in thinking abilities. Care partners play a crucial role in providing the best quality of life and support for their loved ones with Parkinson's. In this episode, Jori Fleisher, MD, MSCE and Claire Pensyl talk about Parkinson's dementia. Dr. Fleisher is a movement disorders neurologist and co-director of the Parkinson's Foundation Center of Excellence at Rush University in Chicago, where her research focuses on designing and implementing novel models of care and support for people living with neurodegenerative disorders. She is the Principal Investigator of the PERSEVERE trial, an entirely virtual, national trial to educate and empower care partners whose loved ones have Parkinson's or Lewy Body Dementia (LBD).  Claire, on the other hand, was the care partner for her husband, Ira, who had PD and LBD. She shares her experience witnessing Ira's cognitive challenges as they became more apparent and describes how she became motivated to learn more about the signs of dementia as the disease progressed.

It is widely known that a healthy diet can provide essential nutrients and lead to a multitude of benefits, but growing evidence has highlighted important links between diet, nutrition, and brain health, particularly related to neurodegenerative disease. In this episode, Dr. Puja Agarwal discusses her research investigating the role that diet and nutrition may play in Parkinson's disease and other neurodegenerative conditions. Evidence from her studies and the work of others suggests that certain diets, including the Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diet, are associated with brain health and may have the potential to delay the onset or slow progression of Parkinson's disease or other neurodegenerative conditions. We hear more about her ongoing MJFF-funded research project examining the role of diet in the progression of parkinsonian signs and its association with Lewy body pathologies, as well as future directions for this exciting line of research. Puja is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Internal Medicine at Rush University.This podcast is geared toward researchers and clinicians. If you live with Parkinson's or have a friend or family member with PD, listen to The Michael J. Fox Foundation Parkinson's Podcast at michaeljfox.org/podcasts. We're excited to announce that we will be merging our two podcasts in 2025, and we invite you to subscribe to our Michael J. Fox Foundation Parkinson's Podcast on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts for future episodes featuring scientists, doctors and people with Parkinson's talking about different aspects of life with the disease as well as new research toward treatment breakthroughs.

Our guest on this month's podcast, Registered Dietitian Jessica Rusch, suggests we view our kids, and ourselves, as premium cars that need premium gasoline when it comes to thinking about nutrition. She shares some great tips to help us do this even with those picky eaters or kiddos with nervous stomachs. ' Jessica Rusch's love for food and nutrition developed at the ripe age of 14. At this time, she started to become aware of nutrition labels, read up on nutrition articles, and became involved in sports. Jessica realized the amazing impact nutrition had on the way you think, feel, and look, and thus developed a strong interest in this field. It only made sense for her to carry this passion over into a career. Jessica attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Food Science and Human Nutrition in May of 2008. In 2009 she completed her required dietetic internship through Texas A & M University at Kingsville and completed her Masters in Clinical Nutrition at Rush University in December 2023. As a dietitian, Jessica gained experience in facilitating nutrition research studies, conducting one-on-one nutrition sessions, volunteering at youth diabetes camps, developing and completing educational seminars, coaching, leading nutrition classes, and the list goes on! Jessica's passion for food and the effect it has on our lives continues to fascinate her on an everyday basis. Her goal is to share this love and passion while helping others learn the positive impact of good nutrition to reach their health-related goals!

Thomson endowed chair of orthopaedic surgery, emeritus, at Rush University, shares the experience that led him to orthopaedics, the challenges of starting a sports medicine program, his remarkable accomplishments as an artisan, and more.

Whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting out, finding the right job in orthopaedics can be a complex and daunting task. In this episode, we're examining the tools for making this daunting task as easy as possible. Joining us to share valuable insights on this topic are Dr. Sanjeev Bhatia and David Mandell. Dr. Sanjeev Bhatia is an orthopedic sports medicine surgeon at Northwestern Medical and is on faculty of the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. He remembers well the stress of evaluating jobs as he came out of training from Northwestern, Rush University and the Steadman-Philippon Research Institute. Even at that stage, Sanjeev was helping his colleagues analyze the financial implications of different jobs, sharing a financial model he had developed. His interest in helping fellow physicians only increased when he changed jobs a few years into his career. Sanjeev writes often on financial and career topics in his monthly column for Orthopedics Today. David Mandell is an attorney in The Law Office of David B. Mandell, PC, and principal of the nationally-known wealth management firm OJM Group, LLC. He holds a bachelor's degree, with honors, from Harvard University.

In this episode, we answer questions which you might have on navigating the orthopedic job market and making better job decisions like; What are some of the important things that chief residents and fellows do not pay much attention to when looking for jobs? What is “The Doctors Agents” and how does it help young doctors to secure jobs? What are helpful sources to look at when searching for jobs in order to be better prepared? and more.

“What is it like to be a clinician with a patient who either comes because they're going to be dying or it happens in the treatment -  what is it like for the clinician? It's lonely in a way because there is a lot of parallel with what the patient is going through. To me, and as a field, I would like to think we could talk about this and write about it. My peer group at the time was terribly important to me - colleagues, people that basically would be with me in this. But in the end I was the one that went alone to the service at the funeral home and I went to my patient's luncheon, not to have the lunch but to talk to the family, and then I left - I didn't stay for the lunch, I thought that might be a little intrusive. There's nothing really to read about, talk about, pick somebody's brain about how do they experience this in their work or I don't really understand why we've been so quiet about this in our work.” PW   “You mentioned about being alone in it, and there is a way in which it's very true. I think a large part is that not many of our colleagues have had this experience. But on the flip side, maybe because I've worked with so many patients and I'm beginning to notice a certain consistency, but I've also had such an experience of close intimacy with these patients. There's a closeness that is to be had particularly in analytic work and work over time - but it happens quite quickly in the work with dying patients, and in that regard, I felt less alone in my work. In some ways in the rest of our work, because we maintain a careful distance in a way, a boundary with the patient, a frame - I feel with the dying patients, I feel like both of us are more in the room together.” MM     Episode Description: We begin with acknowledging the tension that exists between the literal and metaphoric aspects of the analytic relationship and how that is highlighted in the face of physical illness in either party. We focus on patients' illnesses both as they present upon initial consultation and when they develop in the course of treatment. Mark describes his years of work with cancer patients, and Peggy shares her experience with an analysand who, in the 6th year of her treatment, developed a terminal illness. We consider the emotional challenges associated with making home visits, the meaning of 'boundaries', feelings associated with fees, and the shared experience of love between patient and analyst. We consider the ways that the analyst's affective intensity may also be associated with earlier and feared illnesses in their own life. We close with considering the difficulties that our field has in honestly communicating this aspect of the heart and soul of psychoanalysis.   Linked Episodes: Episode 23: A Psychoanalyst Encounters the Dying – Discovering ‘Existential Maturity'   Episode 40: How Psycho-Oncology Informs an Approach to the Covid-19 Crises with Norman Straker, MD   Our Guests: Mark Moore, PhD, is a clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst who works in private practice in Philadelphia.

Sigh, See, Start: How to Be the Parent Your Child Needs in a World That Won't Stop Pushing―A Science-Based Method in Three Simple Steps by Alison Escalante https://amzn.to/49vJ7EP In a perfectionistic parenting culture that tells you that you are never enough no matter how much you do for your kids, this unique approach empowers you with a simple parenting technique to gain confidence, remain grounded, and connect positively with your children. Dr. Alison Escalante is a board-certified pediatrician with more than two decades of experience who has spent the last ten years exploring ways to equip parents to meet their children's needs. She has experienced first-hand the culture of criticism and anxiety that drains parental joy and leaves parents feeling bad about what they should or should not be doing with and for their children. She calls this the parenting “ShouldStorm,” and this book is her invitation to escape that cycle and be the parent your child needs. In this game-changing parenting book, Dr. Escalante outlines her 3-step science-based approach to escaping the ShouldStorm and embracing should-free mindful parenting. Going into detail about each step, she clearly explains how to implement this approach in everyday situations where parents may feel overwhelmed and shares real results from parents and children who use the technique: SIGH: In moments of parental overwhelm, take a breath all the way into your belly. Imagine it's a sigh of relief. Sighs help you stop and center yourself instead of reacting to the "should" in your head. ​ SEE: Notice what's going on. See your child. Are they happy? Are they close to tears? Are their fists balled in anger? START: Then, and only then, start listening, and start thinking about what an appropriate reaction would be. Do they need a hug? Some space?

Have you even been caught in a Shouldstorm? A ShouldStorm is a high-pressure culture of criticism and anxiety that pushes perfectionistic parenting. The Shouldstorm has an opinion on every little thing parents do, but it often contradicts itself. It tells parents what they should or should not do, and threatens that kids will suffer if parents don't follow those shoulds to the letter. Parents internalize the shoulds; the Shouldstorm lives in our heads and makes parents feel anxiety and shame. To get free of the Shouldstorm I invited Dr. Alison Escalante to be our guest Dr. Alison Escalante is a board-certified pediatrician and an Adjunct Professor of Pediatrics at Rush University.

Discussion about Ozempic (semaglutide and other GLP-1 agonist medications) is EVERYWHERE. So many opinions! Your Doctor Friends know that sifting through mountains of information on a subject is HARD. Sometimes it helps to "ask a friendly expert", so that's exactly what we did for this episode. Quick plug/required pre-listening for this episode- Your Doctor Friends HIGHLY recommend you listen to the episode of Maintenance Phase on Ozempic- link to the podcast here! We welcome back our friend, and former guest of YDF, Naomi Parrella, MD. Dr. Parrella is a double board-certified physician in family medicine and obesity medicine. She is the Chief of Lifestyle Medicine at Rush University, the Medical Director for Rush University's Center for Weight Loss and Lifestyle Medicine, the Director of Strategic Planning and Implementation within the Department of Surgery and Associate Professor in both the Department of Family Medicine and the Department of Surgery. She was also our esteemed guest on EPISODE 3! (Back when we were still called "What The Health?!?" podcast! In this episode, Dr. Parrella helps us navigate the tough questions when it comes to new medications like Ozempic/Wegovy. We discuss some hot topics, including: What is insulin resistance? Can you be fat and metabolically healthy? Does having a "normal BMI"/being thin automatically make you metabolically healthy? What do the STEP trials and the SELECT trial really show us? What does that data mean? Can you take a medication like Ozempic for a short time "just to lose a little weight" and then stop? Should you expect to maintain that weight loss? What are the potential side effects/downsides of medications like Ozempic (GLP-1 agonists)? Why are these meds so damn expensive? Is it like that all over the world? Dr. Parrella recommends the following resources: "Why We Get Sick" by Benjamin Bikman, PhD. "Metabolical" by Robert Lustig, MD. "Brain Energy" by Christopher Palmer, MD.

Once an exotic procedure, hip arthroscopy is now a commonplace surgery with an expanding footprint in Sports Medicine. One of the basic steps of hip arthroscopy is a capsulotomy to allow adequate access to the hip joint. Closure of the capsule, however, has been a point of controversy. While expert opinion has long touted the benefits of capsular closure, the technical difficulty of this step and the fact that it comes at the end of a time-sensitive surgery may explain why it is not performed universally. We welcome Dr. Jorge Chahla, MD, PhD from Rush University to discuss his team's systematic review and meta-analysis comparing outcomes of repaired versus unrepaired capsules during hip arthroscopy. Dr. Chahla presents compelling evidence that capsular closure leads to better outcomes and is the way to go.

Her approach involves close collaboration with clients to help them rediscover their intrinsic self-value and authenticity through holistic practices, including breathwork, sound healing, meditation, and reiki.Alexandra attained a bachelor's in nursing from Florida Atlantic University in 2003. She then began working in pediatric medicine. Alexandra began her master's degree program at Rush University specializing in Adult and Child Psychiatric/Mental Health Nursing. She was inspired to go into the psychiatric field since struggled all her life with severe anxiety due to childhood trauma. Alexandra graduated with her Master's in 2009 and began working in a mental health clinic and several recovery centers for drug and alcohol addiction. As much as she felt on purpose with her career by helping others, she realized that medical and psychiatric treatment for patients was lacking in many ways. She continued witnessing patients relapsing time and time again. Alexandra fell into the western medicine toxic cycle of pushing pharmaceuticals to patients instead of delving deep into the many layers that uncover the root of “disease”. It gripped her so much that she began losing her own identity of self. Little did she know she was suffering from not only anxiety again, but at the root cause was a deep spiritual malady that manifested as depression and alcoholism. Alexandra continued seeking help through therapy and other traditional western modalities that worked temporarily but never found the healing that was needed for a transformation. Alexandra decided to embark on a new career path. She earned her certification in the field of education in 2020. By this point in her life, she had begun a spiritual journey and took an entirely holistic approach to her own healing. She began to research different modalities that sparked an incredible transformative process in her life. The healing power of breathwork that she experienced firsthand along with other holistic modalities is what inspired her to attain certification as an Elemental Rhythm Breathwork facilitator. Alexandra's background in nursing and education inspires her to teach the science behind holistic practices to clients all around the globe. She embodies expertise in the wellness field as she assists in empowering and transforming individuals from all walks of...

The following question refers to Section 4.9 of the 2021 ESC CV Prevention Guidelines. The question is asked by Dr. Christian Faaborg-Andersen, answered first by UCSD fellow Dr. Patrick Azcarate, and then by expert faculty Dr. Melissa Tracy. Dr. Tracy is a preventive cardiologist, former Director of the Echocardiography Lab, Director of Cardiac Rehabilitation, and solid organ transplant cardiologist at Rush University. The CardioNerds Decipher The Guidelines Series for the 2021 ESC CV Prevention Guidelines represents a collaboration with the ACC Prevention of CVD Section, the National Lipid Association, and Preventive Cardiovascular Nurses Association. Enjoy this Circulation 2022 Paths to Discovery article to learn about the CardioNerds story, mission, and values. Question #35 In patients with a low risk of cardiovascular disease, which of the following is true?AAspirin does not affect the risk of ischemic strokeBAspirin increases the risk of fatal bleeding.CAspirin reduces the risk of non-fatal MI.DAspirin reduces cardiovascular mortality Answer #35 ExplanationIn 2019, an updated meta-analysis of aspirin for primary prevention of cardiovascular events found that patients with a low risk of CVD taking aspirin did not have a reduction in all-cause or cardiovascular mortality. There was a lower risk of non-fatal MI (RR 0.82) and ischemic stroke (RR 0.87). However, aspirin was also associated with a  higher risk of major bleeding (RR 1.50), intracranial bleeding (RR 1.32), and major GI bleeding (RR 1.52). There was no difference in the risk of fatal bleeding (RR 1.09).Accordingly, the ESC does not recommend antiplatelet therapy in individuals with low/moderate CV risk due to the increased risk of major bleeding (Class III, LOE A).Although aspirin should not be given routinely to patients without established ASCVD, we cannot exclude that in some patients at high or very high CVD risk, the benefits may outweigh the risks.Main TakeawayIn patients with low/moderate risk of CVD, aspirin for primary prevention is not recommended due to the higher risk of bleeding. For those at higher risk of CVD, low-dose aspirin may be considered for prevention in the absence of contraindications.Guideline Loc.Section 4.9.1, Page 3291 CardioNerds Decipher the Guidelines - 2021 ESC Prevention SeriesCardioNerds Episode PageCardioNerds AcademyCardionerds Healy Honor RollCardioNerds Journal ClubSubscribe to The Heartbeat Newsletter!Check out CardioNerds SWAG!Become a CardioNerds Patron!

This episode is sponsored by Charm Economics.  In this podcast episode, Dr. Robert McCarron discusses the urgent need for improved mental health training for primary care physicians and specialists. As the founding director of the UC Davis Train New Trainers Primary Care Psychiatry Fellowship, Dr. McCarron aims to expand access to mental healthcare delivery, emphasizing the importance of addressing both physical and emotional pain in patients. The episode covers three key components of treatment: therapy, medication, and whole person care. Dr. McCarron advocates for empowering patients in decision-making and planting the seed for treatment, rather than pushing them into therapies they may not be ready for. He provides an overview of commonly used antidepressants like SSRIs and SNRIs and highlights the challenges of finding therapists due to the shortage of psychiatrists and insurance complexities.  His training program equips primary care providers with brief psychotherapy skills, such as cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing, to initiate treatment while patients wait for specialized care, ensuring better mental health support overall.
