We welcome back Dr. Schumann to discuss the very serious topic of Bronny James collapsing on the basket ball court with cardiac arrest.  We also discuss how this situation differs dramatically from the incident with Damar Hamlin.

Episode 75 Bronny James - Cardiac Arrest

We recorded live at MEMA23(Michigan Emergency Medicine Assembly) with Michigan ACEP. In this segment, we chat with Dr. Jayna Gardner-Gray about the management of hypoxemic respiratory failure as well as post-arrest care.

Grace McCubbin is an advocate, speaker, and business owner here in the Quad Cities. She and I sat down and discussed her recent TEDx talk in Davenport, Iowa which was focused on her son’s (16 years old at the time) cardiac arrest back in February. We also discussed how she ended up on the TEDx stage sharing that story. Following that, we discussed her experience developing trauma induced OCD, being a child of an alcoholic, imposter syndrome, authenticity, and advocating for yourself medically. That, and much more is incapsulated in this episode.

Remember to keep up with the social media pages: @mdoverthinker on all platforms :)

New episodes of the podcast drop every Monday!

It was already going to be a rough demo just so we can remember it but then enzo didnt disconnect  his airpod so we’re forced to hear him try to find a melody for lyrics. The hayden sample is funny tho

Those Without Shape

Can the addition of high-dose methylprednisolone to the treatment of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest make a meaningful difference? In this post-hoc analysis of a placebo-controlled randomized control trial comparing high-dose methylprednisolone versus placebo in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), the authors aimed to assess the hemodynamic effects of prehospital high-dose glucocorticoid treatment in resuscitated comatose OHCA patients.

STEROCHA Trial: 'Roids to the Rescue?

This podcast from the International Emergency Medicine Education Project website details the fundamentals of pediatric advanced life support (PALS), focusing on the recognition and management of pediatric cardiac arrest (CA). The podcast emphasizes early identification of pre-arrest states through assessment of vital signs and the ABCDE approach, outlining procedures for high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), including appropriate medication administration and defibrillation techniques. It also covers post-cardiac arrest care, highlighting targeted temperature management and other critical interventions. The authors are affiliated with emergency medicine departments in Turkey, and the material is presented as a free educational resource.

Fundamentals of Pediatric Advanced Life Support

In this World Shared Practice Forum podcast, Dr. Dennis Daniel discusses pediatric extracorporeal life support (ECLS) with experts Drs. Peta Alexander and Ryan Barbaro. They explore the differences between pediatric and adult extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), highlighting differing causes of cardiac arrest and the interpretation of recently published studies. The discussion also covers supply chain issues affecting ECMO availability, the importance of standardized, evidence-based practices to identifying ECMO-associated complications, and opportunities for future research into ECMO use and outcomes.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Identify the key differences between pediatric and adult extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), focusing on technical challenges and typical causes of cardiac arrest
- Discuss the challenges facing standardization of pediatric ECMO care, including supply chain issues and approaches to capturing and classifying ECMO-associated complications
- Describe areas of need and opportunity for future research in pediatric ECMO

cardiac arrest "type beat"

In this episode, we drop in on the Colorado ACEP Leadership Symposium with a talk by Dr. Chris Tems as he poses the question on whether ECMO is the future of EM cardiac arrest resuscitation. 

Is ECMO the Future of em Resuscitation with Dr. Chris Tems - CoACEP

Reagan Herrman, a 15-year-old Emporia resident, survived an episode of cardiac arrest during a 2023 basketball game when trained personnel made use of an automated external defibrillator that restarted her heart. She advocates for cardiac emergency planning in public schools and funding for districts to acquire AED equipment and training.

Just a dude who ruins songs with goofy-ass sounds. I'd like to clarify that all of the songs that I make are jokes.

ACEP Frontline, hosted by Dr. Ryan Stanton, features in-depth conversations on the hottest topics in emergency medicine and critical care.

Modern Day Overthinker is a podcast focused on topics less discussed in our society that should be. Most importantly, we talk about Mental Health.

The Kansas Reflector Podcast, hosted by senior reporter Tim Carpenter, presents voices from the people and politics of Kansas.

Steven Frey, a sports medicine board certified orthopeadic surgeon and Brandon Olaya, a certified athletic trainer, will be talking about the injuries of current athletes and what those injuries may mean for the athlete.  In a relaxed format, we will explain the injury, treatment options, and expected return to sport as well career impact.  We will have various guests - physicians, physical therapists, athletic trainers and some athletes talking shop.   Intended to be a little more light hearted than this topic is usually presented...   over a couple beers.
