    Podcast 175 - The Things We Do w/ PulmCCM

    Matt Hoffman is the editor-in-chief of PulmCCM, a blog that frequently updates its readers on evidence and best practices in critical care medicine. I have always wondered how our work in the field affects a patient's care downstream. Do pulmonologists ever sigh to themselves and think, "God, I wish paramedics would just start/stop doing ____________?" It turns out that this is not the case, but the discussion was super interesting, and I thank Dr. Hoffman for coming to the show.

    Podcast 174 - "I Rolled My Ambulance" Interview w/ Kyle Rice

    In this episode of FOAMfrat, Tyler speaks with paramedic Kyle Rice to discuss a deeply personal and eye-opening experience—rolling his ambulance after running a red light. Kyle shares the lessons he learned about complacency, crew resource management, and the often-overlooked dangers of driving with lights and sirens. Together, they explore how EMS providers can stay vigilant behind the wheel, adopt safer driving practices, and shift their mindset when responding to emergencies. If you're an EMS provider, this episode is a must-listen for understanding the real-life risks of complacency and how to prevent accidents.

    Podcast 173 - Rethinking Lights & Sirens w/ Jeff Jarvis & Jonathon Jenkins

    In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jeffrey Jarvis, author of a fascinating paper on the impact of lights and siren (L&S) use in EMS responses. If you’re like most of us, when you hear those blaring sirens and see flashing lights, you think, “Wow, someone’s really in trouble!” But the truth, according to Dr. Jarvis’ study, might surprise you.

    Podcast 172- Hamilton T1 Hacks & Strategies w/ Joe Hylton

    In this podcast, we discuss the nuances and strategy of the T1 ventilator with RRT, Joe Hylton. Whether you're a paramedic or a healthcare professional involved in critical care transport, understanding the nuances of this advanced ventilator is essential to safe and effective patient transport. We break down the pressure-controlled ventilation with volume adaptive options and offer practical guidance on managing obstructive lung conditions like asthma during transport. Plus, we cover essential troubleshooting techniques to help you address common issues when things don’t go as planned.

    Podcast 171 - Thoracic Dissection Goals w/ Alex Greene

    Thoracic dissections are surgical emergencies that require precise temporizing measures until surgery can be performed. In this session, participants will gain critical knowledge on recognizing key symptoms such as ripping back pain and unequal pulses, indicative of thoracic dissections. The discussion will focus on anti-impulse therapy, emphasizing using beta-blockers like esmolol and calcium channel blockers like nicardipine to control blood pressure and prevent further damage. Pain management strategies and the selective use of nitroprusside will also be explored. The class will address the unique challenges of managing blood pressure in prehospital settings, stressing the importance of a well-prepared plan.

    Podcast 170 - Finger Thoracostomy w/ Dr. Cynthia Griffin

    In this conversation, Tyler and Dr. Cynthia Griffin discuss the finger thoracostomy procedure. They cover topics such as when to choose finger thoracostomy over needle decompression, the equipment needed for the procedure, the technique for performing the procedure, and potential complications and tips for success. They also touch on the use of chest tubes and the management of tension physiology. Overall, the conversation provides a comprehensive overview of the finger thoracostomy procedure.

    Podcast 169 - EVD Transport Logistics w/ Alaina Martini

    Alaina Martini, a flight nurse at Allegheny Life Flight, shares her expertise on transporting patients with external ventricular drains (EVDs). She explains the indications for EVD insertion, such as aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and obstructive hydrocephalus. Alaina discusses the importance of assessing the color and texture of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to detect changes and potential rebleeding. She also explains the process of inserting the EVD and how it is guided by CT scans to avoid damaging important brain tissue. Alaina emphasizes the need to know if the aneurysm is secure before adjusting the EVD drain level, as opening it too low can increase the risk of rebleeding. She also discusses the use of hypertonic saline and osmotic therapy to manage increased intracranial pressure. Tyler and Alaina discuss various aspects of managing patients with external ventricular drains (EVDs) during transport in this conversation. They cover topics such as the clamping of EVDs, positioning the patient's head, troubleshooting common issues, and securing the EVD during transport. Alaina provides insights and recommendations based on her experience as a neurocritical care nurse.

    Podcast 168 - Procedure Preppers (Needle Decompression) w/ Dr. Aho

    Dr. John Aho discusses needle decompression and the procedure's indications, techniques, and potential pitfalls. He emphasizes the importance of high clinical suspicion and the limitations of external signs in diagnosing tension pneumothorax. The conversation also covers the choice of needle insertion sites, the use of ultrasound, and the need for proper training and practice. Dr. Aho provides insights into the anatomical considerations and common mistakes made during needle decompression. He also explores the possibility of instant feedback to confirm successful decompression. The conversation discusses the problem of needle decompression failure rates and the need for a reliable indicator of successful decompression. The guest introduced the Cap-No-Spot, a device that uses colorimetric indicator paper to detect CO2 and determine if a needle decompression procedure was successful. The device has been shown to have higher sensitivity and specificity than human judgment. The conversation also touches on the importance of proper training and the device's potential applications beyond pneumothorax detection.
