I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX Couple of quick updates from the JP Morgan Healthcare Conference. Dexcom's CEO Kevin Sayer expects to launch a 15-day sensor in the second half of the year. That's in front of the FDA right now. Competitor Abbott currently has 15-day sensors with its Freestyle Libre 2 Plus and Freestyle Libre 3 Plus devices, which the FDA cleared in 2023. Sayer also talked about expanded insurance coverage for the G7, to include more people with type 2. They haven't pursued that with Stelo, the OTC version of their sensors. The company has begun work on a next-generation CGM. Sayer said the sensor will be smaller, less expensive and include better electronics. Dexcom is also studying new sensor probes, one of which can support multiple analytes, such as measuring lactate or ketones in addition to insulin.   https://www.medtechdive.com/news/dexcom-ceo-stelo-otc-strategy-jp-morgan/737424/ XX TrialNet reaches a big milestone – more than a quarter million people have learned their risk of developing T1D through screening. TrialNet screening is available to family members of those diagnosed with T1D. Having a family history of the disease places individuals at a 15 times greater risk than those with no family members with T1D. Over the course of VUMC's 18 years participating in the program, the community of T1D patients has become increasingly more engaged with research efforts. More than ever, there is an eagerness to give back to others by participating in clinical trials that could help revolutionize care for those diagnosed with or at risk of developing T1D. In such trials, TrialNet typically takes drugs already shown to be effective in treating other autoimmune diseases and seeks to determine their efficacy in treating, delaying or preventing T1D.   Spencer Mannahan, a 10-year-old patient at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt, is participating in a TrialNet study that is looking to determine whether a treatment regimen using both rituximab and abatacept can preserve insulin production in patients newly diagnosed with T1D. Russell, one of the PIs for the study (Protocol TN-25), also treated Spencer's father, Zach, when he was diagnosed with T1D as a child. She enrolled in a different TrialNet study (Protocol TN-31) examining the effect of abrocitinib and ritlecitinib on insulin production in newly diagnosed individuals. While the possibility exists that her insulin production could be preserved, O'Neal joined the study because it presented an opportunity to make a positive impact on future patients.     These clinical trials support TrialNet's goal of a future without T1D. Research is underway on new methods of blocking the advance of T1D in patients with diabetes-related antibodies. One study will investigate whether T cells that have been activated against insulin can be specifically targeted, rather than issuing a treatment that targets all the body's T cells (thus rendering the patient immunocompromised).   TrialNet, the largest clinical trial network assembled to change the course of Type 1 diabetes, is funded by the National Institutes of Health through grant number NCT00097292.   For more information about screening for Type 1 diabetes risk if it runs in your family, contact info@trialnet.org, visit www.trialnet.org, or contact the Vanderbilt Type 1 Diabetes TrialNet Program at 615-936-8638. https://news.vumc.org/2025/01/22/milestone-in-vumc-affiliated-diabetes-screening-and-research-program-underscores-impact-of-clinical-trials/   XX Another study links air pollution to type 2 diabetes. This is from Wayne State University, and established a robust association between exposure to benzene, a prevalent airborne volatile organic compound, and insulin resistance in humans across all ages. “In this study, we exposed mice to benzene to see how it affects their blood glucose levels and energy expenditure,” she explained. “Our research revealed that within seven days of exposure, they developed high blood glucose insulin levels.” https://today.wayne.edu/medicine/news/2025/01/23/study-links-air-pollution-exposure-to-type-2-diabetes-susceptibility-65321 XX Adults with overweight or obesity and type 2 diabetes who are given the sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor drug dapagliflozin alongside moderate calorie restriction achieve much higher rates of remission compared with calorie restriction alone. The researchers say this study provides a practical strategy to achieve remission for patients with early type 2 diabetes. As well as helping to lower blood sugar levels, SGLT-2 inhibitors can also lead to weight loss, but their effect alongside calorie restriction on diabetes remission has not yet been investigated in a randomised controlled trial.   To address this, researchers carried out a trial involving 328 patients with type 2 diabetes of less than six years' duration at 16 centres in mainland China from 12 June 2020 to 31 January 2023.   Participants were aged 20-70 years with a body mass index (BMI) greater than 25 and were not taking any anti-diabetic medication other than metformin. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20250123/Dapagliflozin-and-calorie-restriction-show-higher-remission-rates-in-type-2-diabetes.aspx XX Beta Bionics has set the terms for its plan to go public, with a goal of raising at least $114 million to support its artificial pancreas system for people with Type 1 diabetes. That's as we're recroding, it's likely they will have begun trading on the NASDAQ by now.. the ticker is BBNX. Beta Bionics' iLet system was first cleared by the FDA for people ages six and up with Type 1 diabetes in May 2023. The Fierce Medtech Fierce 15 winner has since expanded its blood sugar sensor compatibility to include Abbott's FreeStyle Libre and Dexcom's G6 and G7 platforms. The company also said it plans to pursue new clinical studies and an FDA clearance that would enable the iLet's use among people with Type 2 diabetes. The ultmite goal is to have a dual-chambered pump with both insulin and glucagon.. but I didn't find anything about that in the articles about this IPO.. I followed up with Beta Bionics and they told me that the dual chambered pump is still very much the goal. Not sure why most of the publications left that out.. but good to hear. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/artificial-pancreas-maker-beta-bionics-aims-raise-120m-nasdaq-ipo XX Large new study estimates the size of the current US population with type 1 diabetes and project growth over the next ten years. They say about 2 million live with type 1.. about 1.79 million adults and 290-thousand children. Growth in the ten years is predicted to be about 10% https://jheor.org/article/124604 XX The American Diabetes Association® (ADA) teams up with Xeris Pharmaceuticals® makers of Gvoke – ready to use emergency glucagon. It is estimated that up to 46% of people with type 1 diabetes and 21% of those with type 2 diabetes using insulin experience at least one severe hypoglycemia event each year.2 The ADA, with support from Xeris, seeks to rectify the low rates of appropriate glucagon prescriptions by developing education materials and training resources for health care professionals and people living with diabetes, as well as through a national awareness campaign to educate people on who is at risk for severe hypoglycemia and should have glucagon, preferably ready-to-use, as a safety net. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/the-american-diabetes-association-and-xeris-pharmaceuticals-announce-national-collaboration-to-provide-life-saving-hypoglycemia-education-and-awareness-302355703.html XX XX Wearing a CGM makes pharmacy students better at counseling patients. New study randomly assigned students to wear a CGM during lab sessions.. those who did had a higher average counseling score during the encounter with a patient and a higher overall confidence score. There was also a statistically significant positive correlation between average confidence and average empathy, and empathy and counseling performance. https://www.drugtopics.com/view/hands-on-cgm-training-helps-student-pharmacists-prepare-for-career XX Mark Andrews Bills Mafia Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews received a host of negative attention after flubbing a potential game-tying two-point conversion in Sunday night's loss to the Buffalo Bills.   In the face of the online rage, Bills Mafia is again showing some support.   Bills fan Nicholas Howard kicked off a GoFundMe to back Breakthrough T1D, a global Type 1 diabetes research organization that Andrews has supported.   "As many of you know, Ravens TE wasn't able to catch the game-tying 2-point conversion and upset Ravens fans," Howard wrote. "On top of that, the TE has been receiving death threats and nasty comments after his performance last night. We want Bills Mafia to donate to Marks charity for [Type 1] diabetes."   As of Wednesday morning, the fund raised more than $50,000 for the charity.   Related Links Lamar Jackson, Ravens bemoan missed opportunities in loss to Bills, defend Mark Andrews Ravens WR Zay Flowers: Missing 2024 playoff run due to injury 'took a little toll on me' Biggest winners and losers from Sunday's Divisional Round NFL playoff games The Ravens thanked Bills fans for supporting Andrews.     "Shout out to Bills Mafia for showing support to our guy Mark Andrews and donating to the [BreakthroughT1D] organization, which works towards curing and improving the lives of those dealing with Type 1 diabetes," the club posted.   Andrews was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes as a child, an autoimmune disease for which there is currently no cure. He's one of several NFL players diagnosed with Type 1 -- Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray is another.   "Breakthrough T1D [formerly JDRF] greatly appreciates the generosity of the Buffalo Bills community and the many fans who were compelled to donate after Sunday's game," the organization said in a statement to ESPN's Alaina Getzenberg. "These donations will support research and advocacy on behalf of the 1.6 million Americans who, like Mark Andrews, live with type 1 diabetes."   It's not the first time that Bills fans have donated to the cause of a non-Buffalo player. Back in January 2018, Buffalo fans famously donated to the charity of former Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton after his win over Baltimore helped Buffalo make its first playoff appearance in nearly two decades. Over and over again, Bills Mafia has shown it will support a good cause when some spew hate. https://www.nfl.com/news/bills-fans-supporting-ravens-te-mark-andrews-after-drop-by-donating-to-type-1-diabetes-research

While multiple sclerosis (MS) has been traditionally described as a disease of young adults, the significant improvements in treatments over the past few decades has meant that researchers and clinicians are now increasingly handling questions related to the impact of ageing.  In this episode, host Brett Drummond of MSTranslate talks with Anneke Van Der Walt, Director of MS and Neuroimmunology and Neuro-ophthalmology at Alfred Health in Melbourne, Australia and lead of the MS and Neuro-ophthalmology Research Group at the School of Translational Medicine, Monash University; and Professor Frederik Barkhof, Chair of Neuroradiology, Brain Repair & Rehabilitation at University College London's Queen Square Institute of Neurology and Professor in Neuroradiology at the Department of Radiology & Nuclear Medicine at VUmc in Amsterdam, on the key takeaways from a recent international workshop on ageing.

Ons brein maakt wie we zijn. Het laat ons ademen, laat ons bewegen, laat ons denken, laat ons voelen. Je zou daarom kunnen zeggen dat bijna niemand zo dicht bij de kern komt van wat ons uiteindelijk mens maakt, als de mensen die dat brein dagelijks letterlijk blootleggen: neurochirurgen. Maar hoe ervaren zij dat zelf? In deze uitzending van De Publieke Tribune spreekt Coen Verbraak met drie van de honderdvijftig neurochirurgen die ons land telt. Wat maakt hun vak zo bijzonder? En waar komt hun fascinatie voor ons brein vandaan? Een gesprek over het écht leren kennen van de patiënt, over de rol van genezing binnen de neurochirurgie en over hoe moeilijk het kan zijn om iemand niet te opereren. Te gast: * Saskia Peerdeman (1961) is als neurochirurg al decennialang verbonden aan het VUmc, tegenwoordig onderdeel van het Amsterdam UMC. Sinds afgelopen woensdag is ze ook lid van de Raad van Bestuur van het Amsterdam UMC. Ze is onder meer gespecialiseerd in goedaardige hersentumoren; * Bachtiar Burhani (1968) werkt als neurochirurg vanuit het Elisabeth-TweeSteden Ziekenhuis in diverse Brabantse ziekenhuizen. Hij vluchtte in de jaren '90 naar Nederland vanuit Afghanistan, waar hij zijn plichten als arts niet meer kon uitvoeren. Binnen de neurochirurg is hij onder meer gespecialiseerd in de bloedvaten en de schedelbasischirurgie; * Peter Vandertop (1958) is al decennialang neurochirurg, sinds 1999 afdelingshoofd neurochirurgie van het VUmc en sinds 2005 ook van het AMC (tegenwoordig Amsterdam UMC). Hij is gespecialiseerd in kinderneurochirurgie en vasculaire neurochirurgie. --- Presentatie: Coen Verbraak Redactie: Sjoerd Alders Eindredactie: Bram Vollaers ℹ️ Meer info over deze aflevering vind je hier (https://www.human.nl/de-publieke-tribune/luister/overzicht/2023/aflevering-117.html) ✉️ Reageren op deze aflevering?

Het is een trend op Nederlandse geneeskundeopleidingen: het afschaffen van cum laude voor promovendi. VUmc deed het, nog drie (van de in totaal acht) overwegen het. Het doel? De burnout-epidemie beteugelen. Voor dr Kelder is dat geen argument, maar voor die van de tegendraadse professor Jan Bransen van de Radboud Universiteit is hij wél vatbaar.

This episode is going to introduce the concepts of health equity and biomedical informatics. We'll revisit this theme multiple times in 2023 but ST and I wanted to kick off the year with this overview that will also serve to provide a framework for some of what we will be discussing as we revisit this theme. We are really lucky to have two guests, both of whom are great colleagues and friends, whose careers have focused on this topic from two very different disciplines. Lea Davis Ph.D. is an Associate Professor in the Division of Genetic Medicine in the Department of Medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Her work explores the genomic architecture of complex traits, defined as the type, frequency, and function of DNA variants en masse that contribute to the genetic predisposition of a given trait. Consuelo H. Wilkins, MD, MCSI, is a nationally recognized physician-scientist leader in health equity research focused on integrating social, cultural, and environmental factors into clinical and translational research. Dr. Wilkins is a Professor of Medicine in the Division of Geriatric Medicine within the Department of Medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. She is Senior Vice President, Health Equity and Inclusive Excellence, VUMC; and Senior Associate Dean, Health Equity and Inclusive Excellence, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine.  We also welcome back The Daily Fare Northern-born songwriters Alissa Abeler and Hannah Smith who've joined creative forces to form a musical duo with a unique sound and look for Nashville performers. The pair grew up on opposite sides of the music world with influences ranging from Judy Garland and Adele to Beethoven and Bach, with a healthy dose of Broadway, punk cabaret, and 80s ballads sprinkled in the mix.  They also share a story common with many newish groups breaking into the music biz that makes the topic of today one they relate to in ways you'll readily appreciate. St and I tried to keep this at high level, but we also weren't afraid to push our friends to explain some difficult concepts. It was as important a discussion as it was enlightening and engaging, and I'm glad to be able to share it with the world. 

Video Link --> https://youtu.be/hgnq4zy1ivEZone3Podcast and the gang happy to be joined by Dr. Joanna Shechtel, MD. Dr Shechtel earned her medical degree from Georgetown University. She completed a residency in Diagnostic Radiology at University of Tennessee - Knoxville, where she served as Chief Resident, and a fellowship in Musculoskeletal Imaging at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC). In 2021, Dr. Shechtel joined VUMC faculty as an Assistant Professor of Clinical Radiology in the Musculoskeletal Radiology section. She is a member of the Radiological Society of North America, American Roentgen Ray Society, American College of Radiology, Tennessee Medical Association and Nashville Academy of Medicine. Dr. Shechtel's clinical interests include MRI safety, quality improvement and resident education. Dr. Shechtel main area of expertise is sarcomas as it pertains to MSK Diagnostic Imaging. Sarcomas are rare cancers that develop in the bones and soft tissues, including fat, muscles, blood vessels, nerves, deep skin tissues and fibrous tissues. There are many risk factors for sarcomas. History of radiation therapy, genetic predisposition and chemical exposure. Imaging properties include size, adjacent tissue differences, infiltrating and contrast enhancement. She was first introduced to the importance of MRI safety by Dr. Peter Petruzzi, MRMD during her residency. She credits Dr. Shellock for her choice to later become a board member of ABMRS.Many factors to consider for sarcoma imaging. coils, image planes, patient positioning, FOV, phase direction, technique, sequence selection etc. Dr. Shechtel doesn't have a preference in field strength if imaging quality isn't compromised. Duplicating a prior study is also a consideration and should be the goal absent of contraindication. High resolution imaging is her preference over small FOV imaging if forced to decide between the two. She stresses the importance of Surgeon preference consideration with joint-to-joint imaging. Prothesis may be in that patient's course of care. Large FOV imaging allows for pre-op measurements as well as visualization of skip lesions. We always love it when our guests come prepared with helpful visual aids. Dr. Shechtel brings imaging examples which help illustrate her case in point. It was a joy spending with someone of Dr. Shechtel's caliber.

The majority of people who get COVID-19 recover, but 1 in 5 adult Americans have long COVID, according to the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention. More studies are underway to better understand long COVID, but its symptoms include everything from brain fog and shortness of breath to depression and even organ damage. These symptoms can profoundly change someone's life. In this episode, we talk to two Tennesseans who are living with COVID and medical professionals to better understand what this condition is and available treatment. But first, host Khalil Ekulona and digital lead Anna Gallegos-Cannon respond to listener feedback and preview future episodes in @Us! Guests:  Barbara VanMeter-Nivens, living with long COVID Suzanne Martin, living with long COVID Dr. Jim Jackson, director of behavioral health and ICU recovery center at the Critical Illness, Brain Dysfunction, and Survivorship Center and a specialist with Vanderbilt's post COVID clinic Dr. Brent Snader, internal medicine and pediatric doctor at Siloam Health Additional reading:  WPLN: A long COVID patient in Hendersonville shows just how little is known about treatment Nashville Post: Q&A: Sara Martin with VUMC's long COVID clinic The Tennessean - Opinion: COVID long-haulers need your help to be invisible no more

HEADLINE: Rightly, it's suddenly going wrong for the trans zealots by Laura Perrins HEADLINE: Makeup Giant Ulta Goes Woke Highlighting 'Trans Girl' Dylan Mulvaney, Customer Base of Real Women Revolts by Megan Fox  When will women revolt totally against this? Maggie is tired of being portrayed as a Characakture of a woman.   ‘Dr Jacob Breslow was a graduate student in gender research at the London School of Economics when he gave a presentation at an event for the US-based B4U-ACT in 2011. According to its website, B4U-ACT promotes services and resources “for self-identified individuals . . . who are sexually attracted to children and desire such assistance”. Breslow's presentation appeared to be a critique of how paedophiles were understood.' MAPS = Minor Attracted Persons So he's been a pervert for a long time now. Evil plays the long game b/c evil never sleeps.  Vanderbilt University Medical Center announced that they are ‘pausing gender-affirming surgeries' for minors in order to review their practices. This refers to operations that mutilated the bodies of young people suffering from gender dysphoria and its child-chemical castration services. In a 2018 video one VUMC doctor said that these ‘types of surgeries bring in a lot of money' and later said that female-to-male bottom surgeries are ‘huge money-makers'.

Why would a doctor recommend parents take their child to a facility to live his life in the 1980s? Is there ever a good reason to take your child out of the hospital and take him to Disney instead? How did Peg trust her gut when it came to her son needing cardiac transplantation during COVID-19?Peg Eitl is a mom of three children: Joe, 40, Jason, 36, and Lacey, 31. Joe was born with Down Syndrome and a single ventricle heart. Due to his medical complexity and intellectual disability, the doctors advised Peg and her husband Craig to put him in a facility but they would have none of it! Fortunately, they met with cardiologist Dr. Black who encouraged them and gave them hope for Joe. Over the next few years, the new parents worked tirelessly with their son, enrolling him in early intervention, therapies, and extra-curricular activities in between cardiac appointments and procedures including a B-T shunt at 11 months, a Modified Glenn and Fontan at 7 years of age. Throughout his health battle, Joe and his parents have worked together to achieve the best outcomes possible: Joe's determination to survive drove him to be the best he could be, and his parents' advocacy in pushing for the best treatment possible resulted in him being listed for a heart/ liver transplant. This was an especially trying time because they also had to deal with the complexities that COVID-19 required.This episode of "Heart to Heart with Anna" features a mom to a special-needs heart warrior who fought valiantly to survive multiple heart procedures, complications, and transplantation. Peg talks candidly with Anna about some of the most significant struggles they've faced, the medical changes their family has seen over the last four decades, and her hopes for the future.Helpful Information about Joe:Facebook - TeamJoeEitlInstagram - @TeamJoe Eitl"Last Chance Transplant" Docuseries on Discovery Plus - Episode 3Joe is also a featured character (DJ Dog) in a children's book on Inclusion called "The Fusion of Inclusion, Where Friends Meat" written by his best friend Mark Graham and Coach Sean Hanleyhttps://www.developmentalfitness.com/meatball-man-and-hoagie-boyThere is an article written by VUMC that can be found here:https://news.vumc.org/2021/12/15/down-syndrome-patient-celebrates-anniversary-of-novel-transplant/Visit our Heart to Heart with Anna Social Media and Podcast pages:Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/H2HwAnnapodcastFB: https://www.facebook.com/HearttoHeartwithAnna/IG: https://www.instagram.com/hearttoheartwithanna/MeWe: https://mewe.com/i/annajaworskiTwitter: https://twitter.com/AnnaJaworskiWebsite: https://tinyurl.com/4kuckfn7YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/HUGpodcastMusic thanks to the Baby Blue Sound Collective - https://tinyurl.com/BBSCmusicSupport the show

Hello and welcome to Informatics in the Round,  a podcast designed to help everyone become a part of the dialog about topics in biomedical informatics.  I'm Kevin Johnson, a physician and informatics researcher at the University of Pennsylvania. @kbjohnsonmd on Twitter, www.kevinbjohnsonmd.net on the web!  The overturning of Roe v. Wade has had a significant impact on our country. What many may not realize is the impact it might have across all of the health care system as we know it, including the informatics community.  However, this episode will enlighten us all about this, and, unfortunately, will probably make a few people lose sleep. We are joined in this episode by Professor Bradley Malin, Accenture Professor of Biomedical Informatics, Biostatistics, and Computer Science, as well as Vice Chair for Research Affairs in the Department of Biomedical Informatics.  He is one of the world's experts on data privacy, having invented or helped to debunk myths around the most common approaches used to protect electronic medical records from use or to facilitate safe data sharing.  He is an elected fellow of the National Academy of Medicine (NAM), the American College of Medical Informatics (ACMI), the International Academy of Health Sciences Informatics (IAHSI), and the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE).  In addition, he was honored as a recipient of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) from the White House. Brad is joined by Dr. Ellen Wright Clayton, JD, MD. Ellen is an internationally respected leader in the field of law and genomics who holds appointments in Pediatrics and in Health Policy at VUMC, and in the Law School as well as the Center for Biomedical Ethics and Society at Vanderbilt University. Ellen has helped to develop policy statements for numerous national and international organizations, including the Public Population Project in Genomics, Human Genome Organization, Council of International Organizations of Medical Sciences, the American Society of Human Genetics, and the American Academy of Pediatrics. Ellen has worked on a number of projects for the Institute of Medicine (now the National Academy of Medicine) and is currently a member of its National Advisory Council, director of its Board on Population Health and Public Health Practice, and the Report Review Committee. For her service, she received the David P. Rall Medal from the IOM in 2013.   In addition to these amazing guests, we're excited to have ST Bland, a leader in Vanderbilt's Center for Precision Medicine here, as well as Jane Bach, an extremely successful “performing” songwriter in Nashville. Jane is joined again by Jeanie McQuinn of http://www.greatbigrivermusic.com, a partner with Jane in songwriting.

On October 6th, the United Way of Greater Nashville hosted a timely and compelling discussion on “Healthcare Disparities in Our Own Backyard.”  The panel was made possible by the United Way's de Tocqueville Society, a now-global society that was founded in 1981 by my brother Dr. Tommy Frist, Jr., to deepen relationships between the United Way and community leaders. We're sharing this discussion with you as a close look at the health and healthcare disparities in one southern city, my hometown of Nashville, Tennessee, as well as examine how our leading healthcare providers are working to specifically address these shortfalls. In the discussion, we highlight some of the concerning statistics uncovered in a recent community health and well-being survey, which you can find at: www.nashvillehealth.org/survey Now let me turn to our panel, where I'm joined by: James Hildreth, President & CEO of Meharry Medical College, and a member of the Biden-Harris COVID-19 Health Equity Task Force; Consuelo Wilkins, Senior Vice President & Senior Associate Dean for Health Equity and Inclusive Excellence at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center; Tama Van Decar, Chief Medical Officer of HCA Healthcare – TriStar Division; who prior to joining the private sector had a highly decorated 20-year military career, and Mary Kate Mouser, Director of Community Health and Benefits at Ascension Saint Thomas, where she works to establish strategies to improve the health of communities.

Summary In this episode, we talk in a bit more honest detail about clinician burnout and the role electronic health records are playing in taking the joy out of health care for some professionals, and in the case of some patients, making it completely unclear what is changing with their own health. For those of you who are regular listeners to this podcast, you'll recall that our last episode focused on the issue of women in health. We're joined by that team again. Allison McCoy is an assistant  professor of biomedical informatics at VUMC,  Sarah Bland is a senior project manager and all-round funny person, also at VUMC Suzie Brown Sacks was a special guest on both episodes.  She's a terrific storyteller, as we've come to learn, and uses those stories to illustrate her life in podcasts, and in song. We had two other special guests on this episode: Sarah Collins Rossetti  Assistant Professor of Biomedical Informatics and Nursing, Columbia University Mollie Hobensack,  Doctoral Student, National Institute of Nursing Research Predoctoral Trainee, Columbia University School of Nursing Show Notes You can find more music from Suzie Brown here:  https://www.suziebrownsongs.com/ You can find out more information about the 25 x 5 effort here: https://www.dbmi.columbia.edu/25x5/ You can find out more about Clickbusters here:  https://www.vumc.org/vclic/clickbusters

In de derde aflevering praten wij met Theo Doreleijers. Theo Doreleijers is emeritus hoogleraar kinder- en jeugdpsychiatrie aan het VUmc en forensische psychiatrie aan de rechtenfaculteit in Leiden. Voor zijn vooruitstrevende onderzoek naar biologische oorzaken voor crimineel gedrag bij kinderen is hij benoemd tot Officier in de Orde van Oranje-Nassau. Daarnaast is hij actief bij de politieke partij Volt. In deze aflevering vertelt Theo hoe hij terecht kwam bij de jeugdpsychiatrie, welke tijd in zijn leven hem het meest gevormd heeft, hoe de kinderpsychiatrie verbeterd kan worden en waarom hij de politiek in is gegaan. Natuurlijk worden er ook weer wijze lessen meegegeven! Vond je het een leuke aflevering?

Helaas is de geluidskwaliteit van deze aflevering iets minder goed dan jullie van ons gewend zijn, maar we hopen dat jullie het alsnog een leuke aflevering vinden om naar te luisteren!

This episode is a bit of a departure from our norm.  I set up this team with the intention of discussing physician burnout from EHRs and what we are doing to improve it.  It happened to be our first all-female team, plus me. In the wake of our post-pandemic attempts to return to normalcy, and some of the conversations I've heard from my colleagues, I realized we had an opportunity to cover some ground here that might be of interest to professionals in academic environments, dealing with remote work and pressures to return to work. So we made the pivot. We'll be discussing the “original” topic next month.   I was joined on this episode by Professor Allison McCoy, an assistant professor of biomedical informatics at VUMC, and by a regular on this podcast, Sarah Bland,  who has a lot to say (as you heard in the introduction) on this topic.  We are THRILLED to introduce you to Suzie Brown Sacks.  Dr. Sacks has a very unique story that is highly relevant to both topics.  I'm not giving anything away though. You'll have to listen to the episode. If you're a regular, you might have a sense of what makes her a unique doctor. Let's see if you're right. You can hear more of Suzie Brown's music at https://www.suziebrownsongs.com/.  She's souful country personified, and would love to welcome you into her fan club!

Suzanne Delbanco calls CJ Stimson, MD, the Senior Vice President of Value Transformation at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC), to discuss Vanderbilt’s direct contract bundled payment arrangement for maternity care with Metro Nashville Public Schools (MNPS). This call serves as follow-up to the webinar hosted by CPR in March 2021, where Dr. Stimson and David Hines of MNPS shared their insights one year after the program’s implementation. Dr. Stimson received both medical and law degrees from Vanderbilt, and is currently an Assistant Professor at VUMC, as well as a practicing urologic surgeon. Here, he and Suzanne discuss why VUMC and MNPS decided to launch a direct contract program on maternity care, the scope and contents of the bundle, and how payers and providers have reacted to this innovative strategy. CJ also takes a guess at what may be ahead for direct contract bundled payments, and what it will take to get more organizations on board with a similar arrangement.

This wide-ranging episode, covering many angles of how we should consider doing less interventions to our patients and more transparent communication to their families, features US intensivist Todd Rice. Dr Todd Rice, is an Associate Professor of Medicine in the Division of Allergy, Pulmonary, and Critical Care Medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) in Nashville, Tennessee. Todd is a clinical intensivist, the Director of the Medical ICU (MICU) and the Medical ECMO Program, and leads VUMC’s MICU strategy for the care of COVID-19 patients. In addition, Todd leads a substantial research program as a clinician scientist, and is co-chair of the Learning Healthcare System at Vanderbilt where the motto is "Learn What We Do and Do What We Learn." Professionally, he is proud of the evidence he has generated to improve the care of critically ill patients and the mentorship he has provided to other physician scientists. He loves ice hockey (watching, not playing) and is completely into enjoying life with his two sons. Todd graduated from the University of Notre Dame and completed Internal Medicine residency at Indiana University School of Medicine. He completed Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine fellowship training at Vanderbilt University where he obtained a Master’s of Science in Clinical Investigation. Other roles Todd serves in include: President of the American Society of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition Vice President for Clinical Trial Innovation and Operations in the Vanderbilt Institute for Clinical and Translational Research (VICTR) Critical care principal investigator for the Prevention and Early Treatment of Acute Lung injury (PETAL) clinical center at VUMC Medical Director of VUMC’s Human Research Protections Program Todd and I recorded this conversation in March 2020, just before the COVID-19 impacted fully in our respective countries. I didn’t feel I should put this episode out during the crisis of 2020 so I held it back until now. I also asked Todd if I could interview him a second time now (in February 2021) to freshen up the interview with some perspectives on how COVID-19 has affected he and his colleagues in Nashville. I hope you will gain immense value from what Todd speaks about on this episode, including: Why he’s considered an ICU junkie and how he’s changed over the years The principle of “Don’t just do something, stand there” Understanding the confidence/competence balance His 4 box method of understanding a critically ill patient’s situation The concept of the second victim with mistakes How transparency to families builds substantial trust Why he praises nurses in front of patient’s families The structure of the ward round at his ICU The importance of empowering nurses to ask questions His note-writing practice, and it’s benefits and risks His practice to look after himself during periods of clinical service The benefit of a mix of clinical and research work The importance of pragmatic trials studying things we are already doing His institution’s Learning Healthcare System and how it is used Some overall career tips How COVID-19 has affected his ICU How the ICU team is taking care of each other His ICUs struggle with harsh visitor restrictions and how they relaxed these safely   Please enjoy listening to Todd Rice.   Andrew Davies   --------------------   About the Mastering Intensive Care podcast: The podcast aims to inspire and empower you, through conversations about the human side of Intensive Care, to bring your best self to the Intensive Care bedside, with a focus on compassion, collaboration and personal wellbeing.   --------------------   Links related to Todd Rice Todd Rice Todd Rice on Twitter @toddrice_icu   Links to other resources (in order of mentioning) ANZICS Clinical Trials Group ARDSnet low tidal volume strategy study EDEN study TARGET study PERMIT study   Links related to Mastering Intensive Care podcast Mastering Intensive Care podcast Mastering Intensive Care page on Facebook Mastering Intensive Care at Life In The Fast Lane Andrew Davies on Twitter: @andrewdavies66 Andrew Davies on Instagram: @andrewdavies66 Andrew Davies on LinkedIn Email Andrew Davies Audio Producer Chris Burke Burke Sound & Media

Het zogenoemde licht aan het einde van de tunnel. Vorige week vingen we er een glimp van op toen de eerste zorgmedewerkers het coronavaccin kregen. We praten er over door met verpleegkundestudent Sterre Helmhout, die het vaccin kreeg van haar eigen moeder. Waarom twijfelde ze en nam ze het uiteindelijk toch? En wat zijn haar ervaringen als verpleegkundige op de Covidafdeling van het VUMC? En hoe denken studenten op de campus over de vaccins?

Featuring Vanderbilt's Urology Residents George Koch, MD and Christy Peterson, MD, the creators behind Urology Game Night, this episode goes over everything including residency life, medical student advice, women in urology, and the future of the specialty.

I’m Dr. Kevin Johnson, physician and informatics chair at Vanderbilt. @kbjvanderbilt on Twitter.This episode covers the most requested topic we have had so far.  We have two of the world’s experts on the topic of data privacy on the show today: Dr. Ellen Wright Clayton and Dr. Brad Malin. They were incredibly generous with their time and had a lot of information to share with a very inquisitive and engaged group on this podcast.  Brad and Ellen are a dynamic duo in the world of genomic privacy and have literally been thinking about this topic their entire careers. There is NOTHING we could ask them that they couldn’t answer.  Thank you guys. You were honest, articulate, and wise. As always. Our other guests included an amazing singer/songwriter duo:   Allisa Abeler and Hanna Smith, also know as The Daily Fare.  They were gracious enough to let us add their most recent HIT song (That’s what I’m predicting for them!) to this episode but even more impressive, they had a lot of stories and opinions to share about data privacy.  As songwriters, who tend to express emotions through their art, I wasn’t sure how they’d feel about the leaking of private information. You’ll enjoy hearing their thoughts about this topic, I’m sure!   You can hear their music at www.thedailyfaremusic.com/home. The intro to this episode featured a former coworker and patient at VUMC, Bernadette Ruby, a Senior Learning Experience Designer and fantastic photographer from Vanderbilt.  She has a very complicated medical history and is one of those people with a diagnosis so rare that everyone in medicine wants to learn from her. That comes at a price, as you’ll hear.Finally, I was lucky to get Sarah Bland back on this episode.   She was a FIRECRACKER, but then when isn’t she. Sarah, you rock, and you help us keep the conversation real.  Thank you for coming on.What did we cover, you ask? Deidentification, anonymization, HIPAA (not a female Hippo!) Genomics, genetics, privacy, ethics, law, crime, Minority Report, little white lies that some agencies can tell us…..yup, pretty much everything about this topic in some form.

Barrington Hwang, MD, and Julian Raffoul, MD, PhD, MBA, interview Sheryl Fleisch, MD at Vanderbilt University Medical Center on topics related to homeless populations in psychiatry. Dr. Fleisch discusses how she has integrated outreach to this underserved population into her career, structural barriers, memorable patient encounters, and considerations for those early in their career.

We take care of our bodies by going to the gym, we tweak and carefully monitor out diets, we go to the doctor for annual check-ups and take medication when to prevent disease or when we're sick to recover promptly. However, it seems like the same approach we have for our bodies is not consistent with the approach we have with our minds or our brain. Today we're talking to Dr. John Harrison, associate professor at the Alzheimer's Center at the VUmc in the Netherlands. John has over 20 years' experience understanding Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegeneative conditions and has worked with pharmaceutical and biotech companies with the selection and successful integration of cognitive testing into drug development programs. An Alzheimer's disease advocate, he has over 60 books and scientific articles on the topic, including depression, schizophrenia, and Parkinson's disease.

IC-chef Armand Girbes van het VUmc houdt een audiodagboek bij over zijn werk tijdens de corona-pandemie. Nu het virus in ieder geval tijdelijk onder controle lijkt, is het tijd voor een terugblik op de afgelopen 3 maanden. Wat ging er mis en wat kon er beter, maar ook wat is er geleerd waarmee de onvermijdelijk lijkende tweede golf het hoofd geboden kan worden? Is de anderhalve meter samenleving houdbaar en moet de zorg anders worden georganiseerd en op welke manier dan?

Overview Fraud warnings, rapid DNA tests for arrestees, electronic facial identification, London cold case, serial child porn conviction, Russian hacking e-commerce platform takedown, and Chinese espionage highlight our law enforcement round-up followed by a conversation on the NIST Cybersecurity Framework with Salvador Ortega.Salvador and I walk through the NIST Cybersecurity Framework’s significant functions and categories and discuss our operational perspectives emerging under each function, category, and sub-category. “The Framework is voluntary guidance, based on existing standards, guidelines, and practices for organizations to better manage and reduce cybersecurity risk. In addition to helping organizations manage and reduce risks, it was designed to foster risk and cybersecurity management communications amongst both internal and external organizational stakeholders.”Salvador Ortega, CISSP, Director of Cybersecurity at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, joins me to discuss the Framework in the context of his 13 years at VUMC. I’ve had the pleasure of working with Sal for many years, and he’s demonstrated a fact-based approach to analyzing security risks and vulnerabilities.
