    TopMedTalks to... Henrik Kehlet: The evolution and challenges of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) | #ANES24

    This important piece shines a light on the evolution and challenges of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS). If you’ve never listened to TopMedTalk, this is a great place to start. If you’ve listened before it’s possible you’ve heard us talking with excitement about today’s guest, we hope you find this session to be worth the wait. Hear how our guest's insights on the need for an understanding of the pathophysiological basis and integrated pre-, intra- and post-operative care for the best patient centered outcomes. We cover the concept of “DReaMing” (Drinking, Eating, Mobilizing) as both a goal and measure of recovery; it simplifies complex pathways, encouraging a focus on practical, patient-centered outcomes while reminding us to investigate barriers when these aren’t achieved. Also, listen to our timely discussion regarding the misinterpretation of fluid management—shifting from avoiding overload to outright restriction—reiterating the importance of precision and nuance in applying guidelines. Can these approaches then be turned into individualized risk assessments, which bridge the gap between protocolization and personalization? Finally there's a powerful call for increased post-discharge research, to monitor and mitigate challenges like fatigue and pain. Recovery does not stop at hospital discharge. Presented by Desiree Chappell, Mike Grocott and Monty Mythen with their guest, Henrik Kehlet, Professor of Surgery at Copenhagen University and Professor of Perioperative Therapy at Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen University, Denmark.  He is also an Honorary Fellow of the Royal College of Anaesthetists, UK, the American College of Surgeons, the American Surgical Association, the German Surgical Society, the German Anaesthesiological Society and American Society of Anesthesiology. Professor Kehlet has published more than 1,250 scientific articles and has given more than 300 invited lectures at international scientific meetings, several honorary lectures including the ASA Excellence in Research Award 2014. He was the first recipient of the BJS Society Award 2023. Like this?

    Redefining Workforce and Leadership in Anesthesiology | #ANES24

    This piece addresses challenges in anesthesiology, workforce dynamics, leadership development, and operational efficiency. Flexible employment models, such as part-time roles and tailored schedules, are helping attract and retain talent while reducing burnout and reliance on locum tenens.

How can organizations, focused on innovation, leadership training, and fostering professional satisfaction, create a more stable and collaborative environment for clinicians and patients alike?

    Healthcare leadership with Professor Shelley Dolan | TMT Down Under

    This episode captures a blend of practical insights, high-level strategy, and the enduring need for empathy in healthcare leadership. We explore the importance of preparing patients physically and mentally before surgery. We look at how the challenges of activity-based funding (as practiced in Australia and the UK) require balancing care quality with financial constraints and ask; is it time for bold systemic changes? We also look at the importance of a collaborative approach to working with politicians and policymakers to ensure better adoption of quality and safety practices in healthcare. And, we look at the role of AI in medicine; its the potential in diagnostics, pathology, and operational efficiencies, alongside ethical questions about how and when to trust AI, especially in clinical decision-making. Presented by Kate Leslie and Mike Grocott with their guest, Shelley Dolan, Professor and Chief Executive Officer at the Royal Melbourne Hospital in Victoria, Australia.
