EM for Physicians #8- Tornado Disaster Preparedness | I had planned on an episode in preparation for sever spring weather, then an outbreak of tornadoes hit Kentucky, destroying entire cities and leaving hundreds injured or dead. I sat down with one of the physicians on the front line that night. Dr. Philip Overall was working at St. Claire Medical Center in Morehead Kentucky and saw the worst that these tornadoes had to offer. | 1 4 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

EM for Physicians #7- Rattling Their Skull | One of the biggest fears of many ER physicians is evaluating and treating pediatric head injuries. The questions of whether to watch, image, or discharge home in a population that most likely is fine, but a miss can be catastrophic. In this episode, we talk about pediatric head injuries and the rules that can make evaluation a little easier. | 27 2 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

EM for Physicians #6- Clot Busters | The D-dimer was touted as the cure for unnecessary chest CT scans for PE's. I think we all have realized that falsly positive tests have led to a surge in CT's for this diagnosis. So what is currently out there and how can we safely evaluate for DVT's, PE's and yet decrease exposure to radiation, contrast and the cost of these studies? There are many opinions, but little consensus. So here it is, the current data I my angle on DVT's and PE's. | 20 1 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

EM for Physicians #5- Cold Weather Concerns | Well, it's winter again, so we need to be on our toes for emergencies that tend to be more specific to cold weather months. Two of the most common are hypothermia and carbon monoxide poisoning. In this episode, we talk about what they are, what we need to look for, and how we fix it. | 10 12 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

EM for Physicians #4- No Pain Like Chest Pain | Throughout the history of medicine, we have been looking for better and safer ways to evaluate and treat common emergent conditions. Chest pain gives emergency physicians chest pain because it is a high risk diagnosis with huge implications if one "slips through the cracks." Finally, there appears to be 3 chest pain studies which establish rules that at least allow us to whittle away some of the low risk chest pains that we can evaluate and disposition quickly. | 16 11 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

EM for Physicians #3- Sound Information on Ultrasound | Ultrasounds have revolutionized emergency care and should be an important tool in every emergency physicians arsenal. There are many potential utilizations and with modern machines that are portable, fast, and clear, more and more facilities are investing in this tool that improves care, efficiency, and safety. | 7 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

EM for Physicians #2- Dealing with MRSA | One of the most common day to day disease processes we see in the ER is MRSA soft tissue skin infections. With the rate of which this pathogen has taken over, standardization of treatment has been very difficult. From incision and drainage, to antibiotics, to warm compresses, treatments vary based on practitioner experience and preference. In 2011, the infectious disease community released their recommendation for how we approach this disease. | 9 8 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

EM for Physicians #1- Lidocaine Toxicity | A recent death of a 5 year old after a lidocaine injection brings to light something we burry deep in our minds in medicine...lidicaine(anesthetic) toxicity. Though we rarely us sufficient doses in acute care situations to cause toxicity, it is worth consideration, especially with children or larger injections. In this episode, I review the doses, the causes, and the physiology. | 2 8 11 | Free | View In iTunes |
