Thank you Sarah Tang, OMS III and Spencer Nakamoto, OMS III for developing this podcast! In this podcast, there is high yield information regarding FDA approved treatments for PTSD and the diagnosis of PTSD. This is done at the start of the podcast. We also discuss some of the current challenges in treatment of PTSD and the evidence being developed regarding use of Ketamine in treatment of PTSD. We enjoyed our discussion and hope you find it as  interesting as we did! Thank you Jordan Turner for creating the perfect  bumper music!

Thank you Sarah Tang, OMS III and Spencer Nakamoto, OMS III for  developing this podcast! Your patience with last minute changes is greatly appreciated! This podcast tackles the topic of perisurigical anesthesia in the setting of mental illness. We discuss the considerations for patients on psychiatric medications and how that may affect anesthesia. We spend additional time discussing the discrepancy between review articles and published trials. High yield information is discussed with regards to NMS and Serotonin Syndrome. This was originally intended to be a lead-in to the discussion of PTSD treatment with Ketamine (stay tuned!). The way our review of the topic unfolded was so interesting to us, that we broke it off into a separate podcast. We enjoyed our discussion and hope you find it as  interesting as we did! Thank you Jordan Turner for creating the perfect  bumper music!

Thank you Jenny Nguyen, OMS III and Romina Hashemizadeh, OMS III for developing this podcast! This podcast tackles questions about the effect of social media on mental health. We believe this is just the start of a discussion that will evolve over time. We hope you find this as interesting as we did! Thank you Jordan Turner for creating the perfect bumper music!

Thank you Matt Webb, OMS IV (and many other letters!) for developing this topic. Thank you Jenny Nguyen, OMS III and Romina Hashemizadeh, OMS III for your contributions to this podcast! This podcast tackles the anachronism of "Milieu Therapy." This is something that was a phrase commonly used when Matt and I were 'younger' in mental health and do not hear as frequently now. This podcast reviews the literature around the topic. We hope you find this as interesting as we did! Thank you Jordan Turner for creating the perfect bumper music!

Thank you Kristen Kopystynsky, OMS III for developing this topic. Thank you Danny Hanson OMS IV for your contributions to this podcast! This podcast tackles the history of understanding the Default Mode Network and some of the implications for mental health. It is low yield for the shelf exam. fortunately, the topic is very interesting. We hope you find this as interesting as we did! Thank you Jordan Turner for creating the perfect bumper music!

Thank you Easton Rothwell, OMS III and Logan Loomis, OMS III for developing this topic. Thank you Danny Hanson OMS IV for your contributions to this podcast! Thank you to the Amazing Dr. Em Adams, PhD, CTRS and Assistant Professor at Clemson University (and former teammate here at the Utah State Hospital). She was surprisingly willing to pick up the telephone while in her office to try and help me understand Recreational Therapists and their unique role as medical professionals (Her efforts and my limitations are noted). Thank you to all the other amazing Recreational Therapists that I have had the privilege of working with here at the Utah State Hospital. This podcast is low yield for the Shelf Exam. The students involved in the podcast felt it may have high yield in terms of understanding a critical aspect of this rotation, which is the time you will spent interacting and observing patients during recreationally therapeutic activities. Our students consistently comment on the value of their time with RT and hope listeners will see their value as collaborative team members after listening to this podcast! Thank you Jordan Turner (The husband of Alyssa Turner, CTRS, one of the many Amazing Recreational Therapists from the Utah State Hospital) for creating the perfect bumper music! 

Thank you Danny Hanson OMS IV for developing this topic. Thank you Kristen Kopystynsky, OMS III and Logan Loomis, OMS III for your contributions to this podcast! This podcast is difficult to judge in terms of yield for the Shelf Exam. It may be high yield because Dissociative Identify Disorder is found in many principles that are tested in the shelf exam (often as the wrong answer). Unfortunately, it is not clear that we had the answers to be helpful. This is a difficult topic and hopefully you can find some value in what has been prepared. Thank you Jordan Turner for creating the perfect bumper music!

Thank you Scott Osabuohien NP-S for developing this topic. Thank you Kristen Kopystynsky, OMS III and Danny Hansen, OMS IV for your contributions to this podcast! This podcast is low yield for the Shelf Exam. It tackles a few issues that may show up about schizophrenia at the onset. Scott and I enjoyed learning about this topic and we hope you enjoy the podcast as much as we enjoyed the creation. Thank you Jordan Turner for creating the perfect bumper music!

Thank you Mikayla Hennen, OMS III AND Max Muir, OMS for developing this topic. Thank you Will Byrne-Quinn, OMS III and Elliot Davis, OMS III for your contributions to this podcast! This podcast tackles some very complicated questions that often arise in shelf exams about the use of ECT. This is a high yield podcast. It also provides what we found to be a very interesting background to the topic. The students noted how much fun this podcast was for us because of the nature of the content and hope you enjoy this as much as we did. Thank you Jordan Turner for creating the perfect bumper music!

Thank you Will Byrne-Quinn, OMS III for developing this topic. Thank you Mikayla Hennen, OMS III and Elliot Davis, OMS III for your contributions to this podcast! This podcast has some technical difficulties related to our enthusiasm about the topic with our voices and volume going outside of the decibel range of the equipment. I apologize for the sound quality. This  podcast tackles the differences between the various antipsychotic medications in a manner that we believe provides familiarity with a number of topics that are tested on the Shelf Exam.  We enjoyed developing this podcast and hope that you enjoy it as much as we do!
