Dr. Kwajo: Poor Metabolic Health Means Poor ICU outcomes - #59


Listen Later

Dr. Kwadwo Kyeremanteng wants you not to end up in the ICU.

An ICU doctor and a department head at the Ottawa Hospital, Dr. Kwadwo knows metabolic disease is a massive driver of poor outcomes. Studies even established the link between poor metabolic health and COVID outcomes. But what do we do to treat that? When doctors focus primarily on sick care, they hardly ask anymore why the patient landed there in the first place.

And that's what we need. We have to talk about the root cause to find the solutions.

The inefficiency of the healthcare system prompted him to start his podcast "Solving Healthcare" which aims to empower healthcare workers to think out of the box. There's always a way to provide better care. The patients deserve that. Maybe the needle is yet to be moved, but the message is getting there.

“You gotta be able to look yourself in the mirror, like, your compass for making decisions is in your values. And my values are always personally along do the right thing. Justice. Be courageous. And I don't feel it felt the same. We both have taken heat in different ways. And yeah, but at the end of the day, I can honestly say we both can look at yourselves in the mirror and say we were doing our best.”
