In Sentientist Conversations we talk about the two most important questions: “what's real?” & “who matters?” Sentientism is "evidence, reason & compassion for all sentient beings." The video of our conversation is ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here on YouTube. We discuss: 00:00 Clips & Welcome - Crystal Heath episode (thanks for the intro!) 02:30 Alexandra's Intro - Acting, #baywatch , marriage, activism - "I am an actress by trade but I feel like I'm an activist - that's the thing that feeds my soul... gives me purpose & meaning" - Human population, animals - Moving to Oregon - #YesOnIP13 ballot initiative & David Michelson episode  04:55 What's Real? - Growing up in a Christian #protestant household. Church every sunday. - Boarding school with church every morning - "It drives me crazy when our President swears on the Bible because I thought there was separation of church & state..." - Confirmed into the church at 12 yrs old "When in doubt do what Jesus would do - the kindest thing" - Midnight mass at 17 yrs old "A pastor said 'we're all born with sin'... I just thought 'that's not true'... that was pretty much the end of me and religion" - "I also felt that religion didn't deal with the things that needed to be done on earth - like the environment" - "So I never went back to church after that" - "The tenet about Jesus doing the kindest thing has evolved into Ingrid Newkirk's... 'be kind, be kind, be kind'" Ingrid episode - "I personally don't have a god" - "I've got a lot of work to do on earth... I'm not even going to deal with religion because it's just a waste of time.. I need to fix things on earth... I don't consider myself a spiritual person." - Visiting the Vatican "horrified at the riches in that place" - "Also the anthropocentric view of the bible - that humans are the centre and we have dominion over everything else... and very male-dominated" - Protesting the Iraq war & being arrested with the Catholic Workers "They put into practice what is talked about in the Bible about loving your fellow man" - The meaning, solace & community some get from religion and how activism can provide the same - "I will not join a religion because of the exclusiveness & the hierarchy... and humans are at the centre" - "I don't believe that people are born bad... circumstances can twist them... humans get damaged" - #Moralluck , blame and retribution. #Sentientistjustice https://sentientism.info/sentientism-in-action/sentientist-justice - "How good a person would I be" if I'd been born in different (tougher) circumstances - "I worried that my character was weak... I think that's one of the reasons I've become an activist... I remember being afraid that I was a bad person underneath." 30:21 What Matters? 34:25 Who Matters? 54:37 A Better Future ...and much more.

This is the second in our series of talks recorded live in June 2023 at the PREMIER conference. Looking after patients with non-epileptiform seizures are a challenging, and common, event in the Emergency Department. 10% of attendances at paediatric neurology clinics are thought to be 'functional' and a lot of these will also present to the ED. These problems can involve a wide range of physical or sensory manifestations, almost all of wide have significant differentials which we cannot miss.   A large number of these patients can end up with an incorrect diagnosis, some of this due to confirmation bias by clinicians, but also some with psychogenic non-epileptiform seizures may coexist with organic problems.   The history is key and can be helped significantly by watching videos of events. There may be other factors giving a clue to a non-epileptic cause. Sometimes this will only happen in one place, like school, and the history may be inconsistent. Awareness and generalised bilateral movements, with episodes that are different each time all point to a non epileptiform origin. And then there are symptoms just 'not fitting' with our knowledge of dermatomal distribution.   There are Red Flags - Events happening during exercise, neurological signs, unpredictability and patterns to the events all point to a more sinister diagnosis   Management is incredibly difficult, particularly in trhe ED. Don't suggest an organic diagnosis and leave some ambiguity. There is time to get more information and there are few definitive diagnostic tests. EEGs are notoriously unreliable. Self help groups can help.   Steve Warriner has worked as a paediatrician at the QA in Portsmouth for the last 16 years. He trained in various regions in the UK including the Midlands, Yorkshire and the North East of England before working in Somerset for a brief period. He has a particular interest in epilepsy and neurological conditions in children and lead the district epilepsy service in Portsmouth. He teaches on the British Paediatric Neurology Association epilepsy training courses both in the UK and across the world. He was part of the team who designed and implemented the training course (initially in Myanmar) and the method of cascade training has recently been recognised by the World Health Organisation and the course now runs in nearly 30 counties in 3 languages. Steve recently chaired a multidisciplinary working group to update the Advanced Life Support Group guideline for management of prolonged seizures. In his spare time, Steve is a triathlete who qualified for and competed in the World Ironman Championship race in Hawaii in 2022.
