Podcasts about wilderness medicine

I am so excited to share today's guest, PA Tara Cross. Tara currently works as an orthopedic PA but also runs her own business teaching wilderness medicine of all levels. From teaching lay people basic first aid and CPR to running advanced life support courses for PAs and paramedics, Tara loves to share her knowledge of wilderness medicine and safety.  In today's episode, Tara tells us what to do if we encounter an emergency outside the walls of our hospital or clinic. She details what we should have on hand to be prepared for an emergency, whether we're hiking the backcountry or at our kid's soccer game. Tara discusses the basics everyone should know and how to adjust our mindset from waiting for CT or ultrasound results to using the limited resources we have on hand to triage the situation and stabilize the patient.  Listen in to learn what you can apply today to increase safety and be prepared on your next camping trip or next trip to the playground.  SPONSORS ⁠CREATED COLORFUL CONSULT: https://createdcolorful.myshopify.com/discount/TRACY   ADVANCED PRACTICE PLANNING, LLC: advancedpracticeplanning.com/financialadvisorforpas CONNECT WITH TARA Email: bluemountainmedic@gmail.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/bluemountainmedic Facebook: www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61563335155764 Website: www.wildmed.com COACHING ⁠1-ON-1 NEGOTIATION CONSULT https://calendly.com/the-pa-is-in/negotiate⁠  ⁠FREE 30-MINUTE COACHING CONSULT⁠ ⁠https://calendly.com/the-pa-is-in/gen-call⁠   LINKS ⁠TRACY ON INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/mrstracybingaman/⁠ ⁠TRACY ON LINKEDIN https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracybingaman/⁠ SUPPORT THIS PODCAST: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thepaisin/support --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thepaisin/support

In this part of the conversation, Dennis and Andy discuss common health issues and injuries that can occur in the jungle. They specifically focus on heat illnesses, musculoskeletal conditions, dermatological conditions, and tropical diseases. They provide tips on how to manage exertional heat illness, such as stopping activity, finding shade, and using water to cool down. They also discuss the importance of proper hydration, nutrition, and hygiene in the jungle. Additionally, they talk about the wet and dry routine for clothing, managing blisters and cuts, and dealing with insect bites and envenomation. In this conversation, Andy discusses various hazards and challenges faced in the jungle, including snake bites, tarantulas and spiders, toxic plants, and scorpion stings. He emphasizes the importance of pre-planning and education to mitigate risks. Andy also highlights the need for specialized equipment and techniques for evacuations in the jungle, such as technical rope rescues and securing stretchers in different modes of transportation. He recommends the Oxford Handbook of Expedition and Wilderness Medicine as a valuable resource for healthcare providers in jungle environments. Takeaways Common health issues in the jungle include heat illnesses, musculoskeletal conditions, dermatological conditions, and tropical diseases. Proper management of exertional heat illness involves stopping activity, finding shade, and using water to cool down. Hydration, nutrition, and hygiene are crucial in the jungle to prevent health issues. The wet and dry routine for clothing helps maintain personal hygiene and prevent skin problems. Proper management of blisters, cuts, and insect bites is important to prevent infections and complications. Educate yourself on the risks and hazards specific to the jungle environment you will be operating in. Pre-plan and practice different evacuation scenarios, considering the challenges of the jungle terrain. Have specialized equipment and techniques for technical rope rescues and securing stretchers in different modes of transportation. Laminate important documents and resources to protect them from the jungle environment. The Oxford Handbook of Expedition and Wilderness Medicine is a valuable resource for healthcare providers in jungle environments.

How has being in space affected their menstrual cycles, reproductive health, ovarian longevity, bone density, and hormones?This is important to think about now, because as Shawna put it: "We are going to space for humanity so we need to do it with all of humanity."A shared and visionary goal within the space industry is for humans to live and thrive across multiple planets. Human ingenuity is incredible so if someone is dreaming about it, it will eventually happen. And when it does - will we be able to reproduce in space? What will just thinking about it teach us about life and pregnancy? Scientists and entrepreneurs are already looking for answers while you are reading this sentence!

Dr. Patrick Fink joins us on Episode 11 of The High Route Podcast. Fink is an ER physician in Bend, Oregon, involved with the local and broader Wilderness Medicine community. He hosts Wilderness Medicine Updates—"a podcast for those interested in wilderness medicine, search and rescue, disaster and austere medicine, and ski patrol medicine." Fink also has a site titled Mountain Lessons, where he shares valuable information about his travels and best practices. All this is to say that Fink comes to the podcasts with some expertise. One aspect of backcountry travel he has thought a lot about is avalanche airbags. Fink presented some research at the 2023 ISSW, which got us talking about airbags, airbag adoption, and efficacy. A solid podcast on Avalanche Airbags comes from the Utah Avalanche Center. You can find the podcast here. As noted in the podcast intro, I first engaged with Fink when I moderated a comment at my last place of employment. Cutting to the chase, Fink and I spoke on the phone (it's always better to have a conversation to get the complete picture), and now we are friends. BTW—his moderated comment had nothing to do with airbags. On to the show.Thanks for listening.    Find us at the-high-route.com. Yeah, there are two hyphens for redundancy, which is a good policy in the mountains. For weight weenies, hyphens weigh next to nothing. We are a reader supported website with free podcasts.

Time and time again, we've seen that spending time in nature has profound effects on our physical and mental wellbeing, but did you know that the outdoors are also uniquely suited for imparting leadership skills? This week, we're chatting with Sandy Colhoun, the President of NOLS (National Outdoor Leadership School), a global nonprofit wilderness school that is dedicated to stewardship & sustainability, diversity in the outdoors, education, leadership, safety, and community. Their programs range from expeditions for young students and semester-away programs to executive leadership and even NASA training courses. In this conversation, we chat with Sandy about his own formative experience in a NOLS program, discovering yourself in the wild, and we define a core tenet of the NOLS philosophy, expedition behavior.Show NotesNOLSAbout Sandy ColhounNOLS Stewardship & SustainabilityNOLS Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion NOLS Programs & CoursesResourcesFollow NOLS on InstagramChattahoochee Hills Charter SchoolWalk Your Way Calm: A Guided Journal for Uncluttering Your Mind with Every Step by Jennifer WalshKey Words: NOLS, Outdoor Education, Leadership, Outdoor Adventure, Biophilia, Biophilic Design, Nature Based Solutions, Nature Based Learning, Wilderness, Wilderness Medicine

On this month's episode, we chat with Matt Smith about wilderness medicine.  As we shift from a high resource to a low resource setting, there are 3 main concepts to consider: - Ideal to real - High risk to low risk - Stable to unstable These concepts are important as we shift our practice and prepare ourselves.  For this patient context, we need to focus on the things we can't replace, and learn to manage that. Our approach to these patients need to be algorithmic, and focus on doing the basics well. Two mnemonics (H-E-M-P; A-B-C-D-E) are presented to help with our approach. Lastly, hypothermia assessment and management is discussed.

The second episode of our new specialist series, Explore: How To Plan An Expedition, focuses on The Five P's - Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance. In this episode, Matt speaks with Nigel Winser, Felicity Aston, and Stephen Jones about the importance of proper planning. The vast majority of the time, expeditions are won or lost in the planning stage, and often, the moment you step into the field isn't the start of your expedition, it's half way. Matt, Nigel, Felicity and Steve discuss common pitfalls in planning, methods of team selection, and advice and resources out there.Nigel Winser needs little introduction; his career directing interdisciplinary research and learning programmes in Africa, the Middle East and Asia spans decades. He was Deputy Director of the RGS, responsible for developing and managing 11 major field programmes, and Executive Director at Earthwatch leading its ‘citizen science' programmes to support conservation and sustainable development priorities worldwide.Felicity Aston MBE is a British polar explorer, author, speaker and student research scientist. In 2012 she became the first woman to ski alone across Antarctica. Starting out as a Meteorologist with the British Antarctic Survey, Felicity has since been involved in many ground-breaking expeditions. She is currently undertaking research investigating airborne microplastic deposited on Arctic Ocean sea ice. Steve Jones is an Expeditions Manager for Antarctic Logistics & Expeditions. He also works as a speaker, and advises on safety management and crisis management to projects around the world. Steve is also a contributor to the Oxford Handbook of Expedition and Wilderness Medicine, and Vice-President for Expeditions and Fieldwork on the RGS Council.You can find out more about the RGS and use the Explore digital resources by visiting rgs.org/explore, or @rgs_ibg on socials.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-adventure-podcast.

This week we are thrilled to have Katie Wightman, former Field Institute Director for the Sequoia Parks Conservancy, joining us for a conversation about the courage to revisit a dream from an earlier chapter in life, managing fear around trying something new, and how she finds wellness in the wilderness! ABOUT OUR GUEST: Katie Wightman worked for the Sequoia Parks Conservancy in Sequoia + Kings Canyon National Parks for 11 years and loved every minute. She had the privilege to work underground in Crystal Cave, organize the Dark Sky Festival, organize Science and Nature Camps for youth in the Central Valley, the backcountry Pear Lake Winter Ski Hut, and also Directed the Education Program for the SPC where she worked to provide as many opportunities as possible for people to connect with their public lands. Currently she is working on her Bachelor's of science in Nursing and is hoping to work in Emergency and Critical Care as well as continue in Wilderness Medicine. In her downtime she loves ultra running, amateur astronomy, and playing with her loving pup Sierra dog! IN THIS EPISODE: Katie and I sit down to chat from the historic Wolverton Service Camp in Sequoia National Park, home of the Volunteers in Parks Project in Sequoia-Kings Canyon National Parks We are greeted by a yellow rumped warbler and a golden crowned kinglet - get pumped, birders! Katie shares about the relationships between the National Park Service and their official nonprofit partners. In the case of Sequoia-Kings Canyon National Parks, their official partner is the Sequoia Parks Conservancy. We talk about her transition out of Director of the Field Institute at Sequoia-Kings Canyon National Parks and returning to a dream from an earlier chapter in life - nursing. How Katie finds wellness in the wilderness - and how trail running was a “very Katie solution” to getting far out in the backcountry in a limited amount of time. You're never too old to change your mind, and just because you fail at something doesn't mean you're a failure. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wellnessinthewilderness/message

I had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Mattingly, the founder and chief explorer at Wild Med Adventures. He is a shining example of a free-agent physician who made the decision to follow his passion and purpose in medicine. A father at age 16, he was determined to become a physician and raise a family. He tapped his passion for the outdoors by founding a Wilderness Medicine Fellowship and then Wild Med Adventures wilderness CME experiences for physicians. He has hosted wilderness trips on every continent at this point – see the map below. Along the way, he took control of his ER career via the schedule freedom of Locum Tenens and moved his family back to his hometown in Kentucky. Pursuing a career in medicine does not necessarily limit one's options. There are numerous possibilities and specialties to explore. Hear his whole story and learn how to live on the positive side of things and pursue your passions as a physician. “I feel like if you're in a toxic work environment, I think you have to have that leap of faith that you've done your due diligence to have a different opportunity and be successful at it.” - Ben Mattingly MD     Episode highlights: Becoming a young father and choosing a career path From ER doc to wilderness medicine Motivation, self confidence, making choices, and taking control What's coming up for Wild Med Adventures   Resources: Where has Wild Med Adventures Been: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewer?mid=1mAXxAVrPIMI1DZmAYIr1SxdG_5A&femb=1&ll=-3.81666561775622e-14%2C-84.06324816562483&z=1   Connect with Dr. Mattingly: Wild Med Adventures https://www.wildmedadventures.com/ Facebook http://www.facebook.com/wildmedadventures LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-mattingly-md-fawm-249029b4?trk=nav_responsive_tab_profile_pic Instagram http://www.instagram.com/wildmedadventures YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEGeQekNIyGb4IiUNqHCleA Twitter: http://twitter.com/WildMedAdvent   Watch this on Youtube: https://youtu.be/6eKRLFRcQm8   Learn more about Dr. Dike and The Happy MD: https://linktr.ee/dikedrummond Contact Dr. Drummond Email: support@thehappymd.com  Phone: 206-430-1905 Web contact form: https://www.thehappymd.com/contact  

#46 - Join us for an amazing conversation with Clinical Herbalist & Teacher Sam Coffman on how incorporating multiple paradigms in clinical herbalism can support an effective and truly integrative approach to health. In this episode, Sam shares first-hand experiences on working with the healing power of herbs in Echinacea, Comfrey, Horsetail, Prickly Pear, and others in wilderness medicine, wilderness first aid situations, and complex clinical cases. He also offers deep wisdom on how his journey in many different realms of life including clinical herbalism, martial arts, the Special Forces, linguistics, philosophy, music, western medicine, and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has shaped his relationship with the Earth. Sam Coffman (MSAOM, RH[AHG]) began his medical education in the Army as a Special Forces Medic (aka Green Beret medic) in 1989. Over the years that followed, he looked toward herbalism as a way to provide sustainable health care in remote and post-disaster regions for chronic, acute and physical trauma care. Over the following three decades, Sam's primary goal has become the creation of an integrative medical model that embraces vitalistic, TCM and western medical approaches to herbalism into a collaboration with western orthodox models of diagnosis and treatment for acute and chronic health care conditions. Sam has taught herbalism for over 30 years and has worked as a clinical herbalist for over 15 years. He founded and runs Herbal Medics Academy (AKA The Human Path), which offers four primary programs - Clinical Herbalism, Austere Medicine, Advanced Medicine Making, and Family Herbalism.

Created by Mari Feher, Hosted by Ania WiktoroviczIn July of 2022 Jaden Stewart of  Gallatin County Sheriff SAR in Montana, Karel Kaiser and their partner set out to summit Mt Rainier in the state of Washington via the Ptarmigan Ridge route. As they started out from their high camp in 30+ miles /hour wind, they noticed a lone headlamp from the party ahead of them giving off SOS signals. At this point, the team knew there would be no summit bid in their day as the terrain became increasingly dire with truck size boulders coming loose as they happened  upon  a climber with a crushed leg. The saga of their 24 plus hour rescue complete with a Chinook and aided by their Inreach and medical training is fascinating to say the least.

Justin Coleman chats to Charmaine Tate about how to prevent, prepare for and manage injuries incurred from being exposed to the great outdoors.

We chat with Dr. Mark Braunstein about how he pioneered a new path in psychiatric care using cannabis, ketamine and psilocybin... in addition to integrating wilderness programming, exercise, diet and spirituality to treat depression, addiction, anxiety and trauma. He dives deeper into how cannabis works in the mind and the different ways he prescribes this to his patients. We also chat about the future of cannabis and psychedelic medicine-- both seeing it as an exciting opportunity to treat psychiatric disorders but also molecules that need to be taken with great care.

Being at home with the kids all day gave Toki time to think. He knew he needed to practice his skills and wanted to help others. Late one night he decided to create the joint dislocation simulator. Toki, tell us about the first time you reduced a dislocation? Back in 2000, we were playing an hour away from San Antonio There was no ortho available for the game. Dr. Bud Curtis said, “Toki, you have to do the reduction.” Tell us your AT story 1992 I came to the US from Japan. My father had business in Houston so we decided on Texas and since there were almost no Japanese people in San Antonio I knew I would have to learn English with total emersion. Spent one year at the University of the Incarnate Word learning English Brackenridge High School in 2000 After 14 years I needed a change Stayed home with kids Discuss the origin of your company One night I started dreaming and then began collecting materials. CAATE added 3 major standards including Reduction Techniques I built it for ATs, but I am now getting requests from Emergency Medicine, Wilderness Medicine and a DOD contract. When you were discussing Dr. Approved, tell us more about that. Dr. Curtis was my team doctor and we worked with him through the whole process. We also connected with Dr. Green, a local hand doctor , and had him test it out and give feedback. How can Jay help you today? Jay and I are actually going to be at NATA together sharing a vendor space. If you are no longer in school (an ATEP) how can we get this practice? I am hosting workshops across the country. If you can pay for the travel expenses and the best sandwiches in town, I will be there. What are you using for materials? It started with an old anatomy teacher donating a broken down skeleton and me using orthoplast to replicate the bones and joints. Do you feel guilty searching for new providers? I do not have a problem with switching if the company can do the same thing for cheaper and better. In the life balance you are creating, where is your line? I do not have a lot of expectations of someone giving back. I do a lot of things for others and do not expect anything back. Toki, talk about Shark Tank. I applied and presented to the first round. If I was selected I would fly out to California, but I was not. For me, I am glad I did not give up money and take on a loan.  What is the feedback you are getting? My first workshop was in San Antonio ISD with former colleagues that had never reduced a dislocation before. A lot of clinical programs do not have someone to teach the skills even though they bought the devices.

The world of emergency medicine is commonly known for its 2 AM chest pain visits, motor vehicle accidents and trauma admissions, and foreign objects that require removal from different orifices. However, there is actually so much more specialization within this specialty in itself! Through additional training from 1 to 2 years of fellowship, one can sub-specialize in realms that expand even beyond the four corners of the emergency room, such as Critical Care, EMS/Disaster, Wilderness Medicine, Pediatrics, Hyperbaric Medicine, Medical Toxicology, and even Ultrasound! The last is true for our episode guest today, Dr. Siri ("Hey Siri MD") Chamarti, an Emergency Medicine physician who is near-ending her Ultrasound fellowship!Receiving her bachelor's degree in Neuroscience from UCLA in 2013, attaining her medical degree from the Medical College of Georgia at August University in 2017, and having completed her emergency medicine residency at Maimonides Hospital in 2020, Dr. Siri now stands as a New York doctor who promotes evidenced-based education on her social media space by recalling her gruesome experiences as the first line of defense during the spike of the pandemic during the City's epicenter during Spring 2020.From her advice for pre-medical to juggling enjoyment with medical school to moving across the country to pursue medicine to finally becoming an attending doctor now teaching the next generation of physicians and to her love for good food and traveling, Dr. Siri is a testament to how much of life can truly be a fun adventure even as a doctor. Just as she stresses the importance of mastering anatomy to excel in ultrasound medicine, Dr. Siri also stresses the importance of mastering the discovery of what makes you happy and excited to live life. "Hey Siri! What...makes you happy?"Livestream Air Date: August 12, 2021Dr. Sirivalli Chamarti: IG @heysirimdFriends of Franz: IG @friendsoffranzpodChristian Franz (Host): IG @chrsfranz & YT Christian Franz
