Podcast 1021: Pulmonary Edema From Naloxone Administration (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Contributor: Travis Barlock, MD Educational Pearls: What is pulmonary edema? Pulmonary edema is the accumulation of fluid initially in the interstitium of the lungs, that when severe enough can also accumulate in the alveolar air sacs. It develops when the rate of fluid filtration through the pulmonary vasculature out-paces the lymphatics ability to drain the fluid. There are 2 theories for what causes pulmonary edema in the setting of naloxone administration: catecholamine surge vs negative pre
Podcast 1020: Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Contributor: Alec Coston, MD Educational Pearls: Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) Common inner ear condition that can cause dizziness Diagnosis of BPPV can help to avoid admissions and extra imaging Three categories: positional, horizontal, and anterior Positional is the most common Dizziness is not a positive indicator, a torsional nystagmus must be induced Dix's hallpike maneuver is done to diagnose and an epley maneuver is then used for treatment Horizontal Usually determined to be
Podcast 1019: Trauma Blunt Cardiovascular Injuries (BCVI) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: Blunt cerebrovascular injury (BCVI) BCVI is a traumatic injury to the carotid or vertebral arteries Patients may initially have no neurologic symptoms In some cases, a thrombus can form at the site of the injury and later cause ischemic stroke, sometimes hours after the original trauma CT angiography (CTA) of the neck is a useful screening tool for BCVI HIstorically, CTA was reserved for patients with high-risk mechanisms or neurologic symptoms C
Podcast 1018: Occult Ventricular Fibrillation on Echocardiography (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: Big question in cardiac arrest: is the rhythm shockable? Shockable: ventricular fibrillation (VF) and pulseless ventricular tachycardia Non-shockable: asystole and pulseless electrical activity (PEA) Rhythm classification is typically based on ECG, but echocardiography can directly visualize myocardial fibrillation Occult VF: a rhythm that appears non-shockable on ECG but demonstrates VF on echocardiography A 2025 multicenter prospective study lo
Podcast 1017: CPR Hand Placement (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Contributor: Taylor Lynch, MD Educational Pearls: CPR is an important life-saving measure designed for anyone to perform. Chest compressions works by two mechanisms: Cardiac pump: Direct squeezing of the heart Thoracic pump: Increasing intrathoracic pressure, causing increased blood flow Proper hand placement per current AHA guidelines: Hands are placed in the center of the chest, on the lower half of the sternum A recent study challenged this approach, using TEE during chest compressions to vis
