The shocking discovery of blood-stained surgical tools at a Colorado hospital is a wake-up call for every dental practice. When sterilization falls behind, even briefly, safety can break down fast and dentistry faces the same risks, especially with short staffing, rushed schedules, and inconsistent infection control habits. In this episode, Kevin Henry and infection control expert Mary Govoni, CDA, RDH, discuss how incidents like this happen and why dental teams must stay alert. They talk through common failures in instrument processing, gaps in PPE use, and how post-pandemic complacency has led to rising safety concerns in many practices. Mary explains the importance of proper onboarding, reliable training, and strong infection control routines especially as respiratory illnesses surge and demands on clinical teams increase. She also addresses often-missed issues such as waterline testing and how dental assistants can identify red flags and advocate for safer practices.

Dr. Jose Montero, Professor of Medicine at the University of South Florida Morsani College of Medicine, presents an overview of the management of Surgical Site Infections (SSIs) for an Infectious Diseases specialist. The lecture opens with a discussion of the history of SSI management, reviewing milestones in the prevention of these infections and their discoverers, from Semmelweis, to Lister, to Koch. Next, the sources of SSIs are differentiated. Dr. Montero then reviews risk factors for SSIs, and then covers prevention strategies. A major strategy for infection prevention during surgery is antimicrobial prophylaxis, and Dr. Montero highlights systemic and topical antimicrobials useful for this purpose, including timing of administration and duration. Lastly, the speaker focuses on MRSA as an SSI pathogen and offers special considerations for this organism.

This episode features Dr. Susan Sorosky, Board-Certified Physiatrist and Chief Medical Officer at Desert Spine and Sports. She discusses the growing role of regenerative medicine, the impact of Medicare's upcoming pre-authorization pilot, and how her fellowship program is shaping the next generation of interventional spine physicians.
For her first birth, Paige planned a natural delivery at a local birth center. But when the day came, her labor was long, and the pushing phase even longer. Eventually, the midwives decided to transfer her to the hospital. As is often the case with transfers, the birth ended in a cesarean, which left Paige heartbroken. It took some time for Paige to conceive again, but when she did, she felt confident planning a homebirth, where she felt safest even after a surgical birth. This labor turned out to be completely different from her first. Her baby arrived so quickly that Paige caught him herself on her bathroom floor. It was wild, intense, and exactly the experience she needed. Find Paige on her website gbdoulaservices.com and on Instagram @gentlebeginnings_doula If you love the show, I would greatly appreciate a review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts!

Tiger Woods' recent lumbar disk replacement surgery marks his seventh back procedure, raisingquestions about the overreliance on surgical interventions in modern medicine. Despite access to top-tier care, Woods' journey highlights a troubling trend: unnecessary surgeries driven by imaging results and financial incentives. With 80% of spine clinic patients not needing surgery, experts advocate for a shift toward conservative treatments like regenerative medicine and multidisciplinary care. Woods' story is a stark reminder that surgery should be the last resort, not the first.Dr. Adam Brockman answers caller questions
Truth That Burns, Love That Heals (Cat on a Hot Tin Roof)What if the most loving thing you can do is tell the ugliest truth? We gather the crew: Jeremy Jeremiah, Bri, James St. Simon, and Mario Andrew, to sit with Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and pull apart the mendacity that keeps a family polished on the outside and starved on the inside. With literature professor James St. Simon and the team, we unpack Maggie's raw persistence, Brick's calculated indifference, and Big Daddy's denial, tracing how confrontation becomes care when someone finally says what everyone already knows.A family built on mendacity tries to hold shape while money, memory, and desire pull it apart. We trace how hard truth cuts open the wound, why Maggie stays on the roof, and how Brick's numbness begins to thaw when lies finally fail.• Maggie's persistence as a test of love• Brick's addiction as avoidance of grief and desire• Big Daddy's denial and the cost of false reassurance• The hot tin roof as a metaphor for truth and marriage• Succession, status, and how families buy distraction• Confession as an act of care, not cruelty• Surgical model of reconciliation and slow healing• Rain, sobriety, and the fragile hope of renewalWe start in that charged bedroom where Maggie claws for connection and Brick drowns in bourbon, then widen to the loud halls where inheritance schemes and polite lies pass for affection. Along the way, we explore the hot tin roof as a living metaphor: love that burns but purifies, truth that hurts but heals. We talk addiction beyond the bottle—shopping, status, busyness—and why families so often choose props over presence. The turning point comes as Brick forces Big Daddy to face mortality and Big Daddy forces Brick to face desire, betrayal, and grief. No flashbacks, no easy answers—just voices, pressure, and the slow relief that only honesty can bring.From there, we map a practical path through reconciliation. Think surgery: you cut, remove the rot, and accept the scar. The rain-soaked confrontation reads like a baptism; Brick's first dry minute hints that sober love is possible when denial finally breaks. The film's ending resists fantasy, leaving stitches instead of smooth skin, and that's the point. Healing is real, but it's slow. If you've ever chosen distraction over intimacy or kept peace by keeping quiet, this conversation offers language, courage, and a way back to the table.If this resonated, subscribe, share it with a friend who loves classic cinema and honest talk, and leave a review with the truth you're choosing to face next.Questions about Orthodoxy?

In this episode, Ziad Hanhan, MD, hosted a discussion about lung cancer diagnosis, surgical management, and evolving treatment paradigms. Dr Hanhan is a thoracic surgeon at Hackensack Meridian Health, chairman of Surgery at Bayshore Medical Center in Holmdel, New Jersey, and chief of Thoracic Surgery at Riverview Medical Center in Red Bank, New Jersey. He was joined by: Thomas Bauer, MD, the chair of surgery at Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune Township, New Jersey, and Hackensack Meridian Health School of Medicine Rachel NeMoyer, MD, a thoracic surgeon at Hackensack Meridian Health Drs Hanhan, Bauer, and NeMoyer discussed current standards and future directions in thoracic oncology, emphasizing multidisciplinary collaboration and technological innovation. The conversation opened with an overview of lung cancer epidemiology, and the experts noted that this disease remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality in both men and women. They explained that approximately 90% of lung cancer cases are attributable to tobacco use, making cessation a key preventive measure. They also emphasized that early detection through low-dose CT screening improves outcomes when the disease is identified at an early stage. However, despite these advances, they stated that most lung cancer cases in the United States continue to be diagnosed at stage III or IV, underscoring the need for improved screening adherence. They expanded on current lung cancer screening guidelines and noted that lung cancer often presents with nonspecific symptoms, such as chronic cough or hemoptysis, and that many cases are discovered incidentally on imaging. The surgeons also discussed diagnostic strategies for pulmonary nodules and emphasized a patient-tailored approach that balances diagnostic yield with procedural risk. They also acknowledged that emerging modalities, such as liquid biopsy and breath-based DNA detection, are promising but still investigational. They underscored that frailty assessment remains integral to surgical candidacy determination, with both clinical evaluation and pulmonary function testing guiding decision-making. The team also highlighted the role of multidisciplinary tumor boards in integrating surgical, medical, and radiation oncology perspectives. For early-stage disease, surgery remains the standard, whereas patients with stage III disease typically receive neoadjuvant therapy incorporating immuno-oncology agents. The group also discussed expanding surgical indications in select stage IV cases, reflecting improved survival associated with immunotherapy.

With his son Yoav Oren (former IDF special‑forces soldier) Ambassador Michael Oren (historian; former Israeli Ambassador to the U.S.) sits down for anunvarnished assessment of the war what “victory” actually means. Highlights: Psychology of war & the IDF: A deep dive into moral erosion under prolonged combat; how rage, fear, and fatigue are managed; why some units choose capture‑over‑kill in close quarters; and the IDF practice of embedding psychologists with frontline units during Gaza operations to stabilize judgment in real time. Oren's two‑line verdict: “Emphatically yes” on military success; “tragically no” because the fight mutates if Hamas retains weapons and cover. The “Hezbollah model” in Gaza: why a foreign peacekeeping shield + undisbursed weapons equals a forever threat. Hostages, Doha, and leverage: what actually forced movement — and what happens next if disarmament stalls. Gaza casualty math, explained from Oren's perspective (the 1:1 claim and why the numbers are contested). How Hamas turns humanitarian aid into a war economy; the logistics and the alleged skimming. On restraint under fire: Yoav's close‑quarters firefight, triage under fire, and the decision to capture, not kill. Anti‑Semitism's uncensored return in the West — and why, according to Oren, arguments and “hasbara” often misfire. USS Liberty: Oren's step‑by‑step rebuttal to the “deliberate attack” narrative. The strategic endgame: surgical strikes, cutting aid diversion, and whether disarmament is possible without a full re‑invasion. 00:00 Intro 01:50 Did Israel “win”? 04:30 Gaza's tunnels and the unique urban fight 06:10 Multi‑front picture (Hezbollah, Iran, Houthis) 07:45 From battlefield gains to regional diplomacy 08:50 Hostages and the “diplomatic shield” 12:50 Why Hamas released hostages (and why it mattered) 15:10 Will Israelis accept another ground push? 15:40 Surgical strikes vs. re‑invasion 16:30 Aid diversion and UN logistics 23:00 Doha strike debate 32:10 IDF conduct under fire; Yoav's firefight 41:00 Rules of engagement, restraint, and misinformation 55:20 Psych support embedded with IDF units 59:00 USS Liberty — the case against conspiracy 1:09:10 Closing thoughts: victory, vigilance, and what comes next

Dr. Kim Lombardy shares a story about a gentleman who presents with neck pain after having a surgical fusion. Dr. Kim Lombardy is a native of Sandusky, Ohio. After suffering from chronic pain and illness, stemming from a childhood accident, and being under medical care for 20 years, he was referred to a local Sandusky chiropractor, Dr. Vince Darr. After a series of spinal adjustments, Dr. Lombardy's pain began to recede, and his health was restored. He was so impressed that he changed his major from Pre-Veterinary Medicine to Pre-Chiropractic. After completing his undergraduate studies at Bowling Green State University, he enrolled in Sherman College of Chiropractic in Spartanburg, SC, where he graduated in 1980. Dr. Lombardy moved to Augusta, GA, and opened Woodland Chiropractic Life Center which later became Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic. He practiced for 29 years before being appointed Assistant Clinical Professor in the Orthopedic Department of the Medical College of Georgia, the first chiropractor to obtain that position in the history of MCG. After two years he returned to private practice. Dr. Lombardy served as Vice-President of the Georgia Chiropractic Association for three years. He has the highest level of training in Activator Methods (painless instrument adjusting) and Cox Technic for disc problems. He has also studied Advanced Clinical Nutrition to help the body heal from the inside as well. Dr. Lombardy brings over 40 years of clinical experience to better help patients regain their health naturally. He is married to Edna Lombardy, and they have four children and nine grandchildren. They are members of St. Mary on the Hill Catholic Church.

Wade Demmer, R&D Vice President at Medtronic, has developed a leadless pacemaker that is implanted on the heart through a minimally invasive procedure utilizing a catheter, potentially creating fewer complications and greater access for patients who could benefit from a pacemaker. This new design is a significantly smaller, safer, and longer-lasting device than traditional pacemakers and does not create a visible lump under the skin. Advancements in battery and computer technology have made the Micra next-generation pacemaker smarter, allowing cardiologists to treat a wider range of heart conditions. Wase explains, "So yes, pacemakers have been around for about seventy years. They've been helping people save lives, live fuller lives, and improve quality of life for that whole time. But you know, if you think about the history of a pacemaker, a pacemaker is a computer inside a little box that's implanted in the body. And like any computer, a computer from 70 years ago and a computer from today are very different. You know, 70 years ago, a pacemaker would've been about the size of a hockey puck, but even a little bit thicker. And nowadays, pacemakers are not much bigger than a couple of silver dollars stacked together. So we've made really big advances." "When you had those hockey puck-sized pacemakers or even modern-sized pacemakers, there's no place in the heart for it. And so they end up in the chest, and then there's a wire called the lead that goes down through the veins into the heart, and that's where the electricity gets delivered down to make the heartbeat. And that's also where the heart's electricity comes back up, so the pacemaker can know what's wrong. As we have pacemakers smaller and smaller, though, we suddenly reach a point where a radical downsizing is a possibility. And again, leveraging the computer technology of the world, getting a pacemaker inside the heart instead of in the chest." #Medtronic #CardiacCare #Pacemaker #LeadlessPacemaker #Micra #Cardiologists #HeartHealth #Innovation medtronic.com Listen to the podcast here

Breast Cancer Awareness for You AND Your Dog Host Laura Reeves is joined by Dr. Marty Greer for an important reminder about the risks of breast cancer in our dogs and how to prevent and treat it. October is Breast cancer awareness month: How does hearing the words “she's got breast cancer” affect you? Bring tears to your eyes? Start a knot forming in the pit of your stomach? Make you want a second opinion? Create anger at being cheated? The diagnosis: We all know and have been affected by someone with this dreaded diagnosis. Maybe it is you, maybe someone you love: a wife, sister, daughter, girlfriend, mother, another family member or co-worker. We know it is a life-changing experience - pain, surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, fear of a shortened life expectancy. For many women, they are fortunate that advances in early detection and medical therapy has made breast cancer a story of survival instead of a death sentence. But this is not the path for all those diagnosed. Some are diagnosed too late or with a very aggressive form of the disease. Some cannot afford the medical care that allow for an improved prognosis. Some deny themselves the care they need. But for those who are blessed with great diagnostics and treatment that allow for stories of happy endings, they owe their successes to the incredible research that led to this improved prognosis and outcome. Part of the success story is thanks to the similarity of breast cancer in women with mammary tumors our dogs also are affected by. The dog has served as a research model for the disease in humans. Many advancements in human medicine are directly linked to the information discovered by research on the disease in dogs. Sadly, our dogs have not benefitted as much as humans have. In human medicine, there are two keys to survival: early detection and successful treatment. Self-breast examinations and mammograms have been credited with changing survival by early detection. Many organizations have put their resources into educating us about the importance of these two important detection tools. New diagnostic tools are on the horizon for humans. Of course, mammograms are not available for our dogs. They rely on us to detect their lumps and to seek appropriate therapy for treatment. Treatment: But, treatment is a very different story. Despite the similarities between this human and canine disorder, there are no widely accepted successful chemotherapy and radiation therapy programs available for dogs. Surgical excision is the only treatment option widely available at this time for dogs. Prevention: In contrast to humans, mammary tumors in dogs are nearly 100% preventable if owners would take one simple step – to spay their female dogs prior to age 2 or younger. We all know that spaying (ovariohysterectomy or ovariectomy) prevents heat cycles and pregnancy. What we have not always done as well as we should have as veterinarians is to educate our clients that spaying under the age of 2 prevents most mammary tumors. Spaying before the first heat cycle protects nearly all dogs. In the veterinary profession, we have also not educated our clients of the risks of spaying our female dogs. While it is true that spaying prevents pregnancy, mammary tumors, and pyometras, there is research that supports increased risk of other disorders thought to be related to removing the hormonal influence of the ovaries. There is an increased risk of urinary incontinence and associated urinary tract infections, osteosarcoma, lymphosarcoma, hemangiosarcoma, mast cell tumors, and hypothyroidism. Each of these disorders has an associated health risk ranging from mild to severe affecting quality and length of life, as well as financial cost to the owner. Even when dogs with mammary tumors were included in the study, they still achieved greater longevity than their spayed female...

Welcome to the 6th episode of our BTK/ASGBI series! During this series, BTK fellow Agnes Premkumar and ASGBI hosts Jared Wohlgemut and Gita Lingam will compare and contrast various aspects of surgery between the United States and the United Kingdom, debating who does what better. In this episode, we delve into surgical training, current challenges, and hopes for the future of surgical training in the US and the UK. We will be discussing the advent of the EPA curriculum in the US, the current challenge of obtaining a speciality position in the UK, and tips for making the resident to attending/junior faculty transition smoothly. Dr. Jeremy Lipman represents the US while Dr. Phil Pearce represents the UK in this thought-provoking conversation. Dr. Lipman is a colorectal surgeon at the Cleveland Clinic and the director of graduate medical education for all training programs at the Cleveland Clinic. Additionally, he is an Associate Dean for Graduate Medical Education and Professor of Surgery at Case Western Reserve University. He is passionate about surgical training and holds the James E. Sampliner Endowed Chair in Surgical Education. Dr. Phil Pearce is a consultant in emergency general surgery in Oxford with interests in trauma, complex biliary disease, and most importantly a passion for training. Take a listen and let us know what you think- who does surgical education and training better?
