For the rest of the month, every Mon, Wed, and Fri, I will be posting the top 10 podcasts of '23. I will resume with the regular schedule on New Year's Day. Happy Holidays.

This podcast discusses the importance of patient positioning in prolonged field care. The guest, Ethan Miles, a board-certified family medicine physician with extensive military experience, emphasizes that patient positioning is a forgotten aspect of medical training and that simple, low-cost interventions are often overlooked. Miles states that patient positioning is especially crucial in prolonged field care and can help in treating patients with traumatic brain injury, manage airways, and improve oxygenation. However, patient positioning can also have downsides, such as orthostatic hypotension, and should be reassessed regularly. Miles suggests that improvised things can also work well when pre-made things are unavailable.
