A kickboxer and an ultramarathoner in his early forties, Dale De Steno was in excellent health. That's why he was stunned to be diagnosed with Stage IV lung cancer. Thanks to a targeted therapy regimen, he survived, but 18 months later, the cancer returned. In the Autumn of 2023, Dale passed away, but his family and friends still want you to hear his story
Almost 1 in 5 babies spend time in the Special Care Nursery (SCN) or Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in Australia. For the mothers of these babies, postpartum is very different to what they planned or hoped for and there's often a distinct grief that accompanies the stress of having an unwell or premature baby. We can encourage new mothers to organise meal trains and lie down at every opportunity but we also need to make space for those who are sitting for hours on end in hard hospital chairs, heart aching for their baby and juggling hospital and family life.

It's the JournalFeed Podcast for the week of Jun 7-11, 2021. We cover overuse of antibiotics for ED sepsis alerts, HEART or EDACS with hs-cTn 0-1 hour rule outs, ED-AWARENESS - paralysis awareness after RSI, thoracentesis or chest tubes in coagulopathic patients, and a review on managing the difficult airway.
The latest edition of Lung Cancer Considered features a discussion on a virtual tumor board in mesothelioma, involving a case with a 68-year-old male, with 30 pack years smoking history who presents to the ER due to a worsening shortness of breath at rest and with exertion, unresectable mesothelioma with chest wall invasion and pleural effusion thickening with enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes and right chest wall invasion. Thoracentesis revealed a serosanguineous fluid (removed 1.1 l) with improvement of the respiratory symptoms. Cytology was negative for malignancy. Thoracoscopy is done to obtain pleural biopsies. Listen as guests Dr. Aaron Mansfield and Dr. Anna Nowak discuss the case and offer treatment options.
