Running a code is a stressful proposition. The code team leader is responsible for conducting an orchestra in a most austere environment, with the goal of guiding the team towards success - defined hopefully by a successful resuscitation. The code team leader needs to have the presence of mind to lead, but also needs to know how to delegate responsibilities and quickly cultivate a shared mental-model between the various team members. Join Nick and Cyrus as they try to demystify some of the elements of leading a code by providing practical pearls and shedding light on potential pitfalls during this episode on Cardiac Arrest and Running a Code.

The intersection between patient care and the legal system can be a tricky one to navigate. Our duty as members of the healthcare team - irrespective of a patient’s social history - is to provide the best care we can, while protecting a patient’s privacy. Unfortunately, this can sometimes be easier said than done, and traveling such choppy waters can be challenging! Join Nick & Cyrus as they host Drs. Erin DeMartino & Matthew Griffith of Scopes and Shields for a case-based discussion which will hopefully equip you with some knowledge and tools for the next time you have a patient who is in custody or otherwise involved with the legal system.

August 14, 2023 5. Zorses and Hebras
They say that when you hear hoofbeats, you should look for horses. This age-old medical adage makes sense in many circumstances, but what do you do when the paradigm is flawed? What if what we generally accept as a common entity, is actually rare? What about the reverse? In this first episode of Zorses & Hebras, Nick & Cyrus will discuss some of these very entities in the context of critical illness, shed some light on them, and explain why focusing on the Horses & Zebras model may bite you on the tail!
