In this episode, I discuss one of the most important practical skills for medical students during the surgery clerkship: how to pre-round efficiently and deliver a concise, clinically useful patient presentation on rounds.

Starting Surgery Rotation: How to Pre-Round and Present on Rounds

Pediatric burns: all burns are serious, both big and small. This episode reviews the objectives of burn care to result in the best functional outcome. Also, burn is a very common method of child abuse and we detail how these children are injured and what to look for to identify possible abuse.

Pediatric Burns

This is a basic introduction of some of the drugs used in various forms of shock.

Pharmacology of Shock

In this episode we discuss that ICU care of the patient with sepsis. This includes an introduction to various vasopressors.

Sepsis - Part 2

Sepsis is a common cause of death in the intensive care unit. In this episode I present some of the statistics on septic deaths, introduce the definitions, and present the basic science. Part 2 will cover fluid and drug therapy for septic shock.

Sepsis - Part 1

Large numbers of patients in ICUs are on heparin and what is this complication of heparin induced thrombocytopenia?

HIT: Heparin Induced Thrombocytopenia

The onset of cold weather will bring with it an increase in structure fires. The leading cause of deaths in fires is complications from the inhalation of smoke-- not burns. Learn why smoke is so deadly as well as what are the appropriate methods to treat smoke related asphyxiation.

Smoke Inhalation Injury: CO and Cyanide Toxicity

Blood products: pRBCs, fresh frozen plasma, platelets, cryoprecipitate when and how should we use it? What are the risks? You may order them like IV fluids but do you really know how these potentially deadly products are to be used.

Blood Products

A great deal is being presented and published on control of blood sugar in the ICU as well as the postoperative period. How much control is enough and what is the data?

Control of hyperglycemia improves outcomes

Why do we choose the antibiotics that we do? How long do we continue the course of therapy? Should we use some antibiotics together? These topics are covered in the episode.

Antibiotic Considerations in the ICU

Earthquakes are horrible natural events causing loss of lives in the thousands. Following earthquakes, building collapses, and cave-ins, large number of victims will suffer from renal failure and death following crush syndrome.

Crush Syndrome

A podcast dedicated to the teaching of critical care.  The focus audience is physicians, residents, medical students, nurses, therapists, and paramedics.  These are topics that arise while on teaching rounds in the Burn ICU at Vanderbilt Medical Center.  A broad scope of critical care and prehospital topics are presented as well as recent journal articles and medical news.
