In this episode, Nick Chmielewski welcomes back to the podcast Terry M. Foster, MSN, RN, CPEN, CCRN, TCRN, CEN, FAEN, clinical nurse specialist at St. Elizabeth Healthcare and 2023 president of the Emergency Nurses Association.
Terry reflects on the care he received during a life-threatening ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), a heart attack caused by blockage of a coronary artery, in November 2023.

Nick Chmielewski speaks with Brandon Wubben, MD and Cory Wittrock, MD, physicians from the University of Iowa’s Department of Emergency Medicine. They discuss their recent article in JACEP Open, “The Impact of Emergency Department Overcrowding and Patient Boarding on Resident Point-of-Care Ultrasound Education.”
The article reviews how the effect of emergency department (ED) crowding on resident education has been difficult to quantify. The authors aimed to describe the relationship between ED crowding and residents’ ability to meet point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) education goals. After medical records at an academic level 1 trauma center were analyzed, results showed that as ED crowding increased, residents were more likely to fail to meet their POCUS education goals.

DNP, short for Doctor of Nursing Practice, is the highest level of education a nurse can attain that focuses on clinical practice.
