    Ep. 29: Amphibious Encephalopathy and Cardiogenic Shock (ft. Heather Keafer, RN)

    Today’s episode features Heather Keafer, a critical care registered nurse with the rare ability to move comfortably between serious physiology and outlandish curiosity. We talk about who she was before nursing, how cardiogenic shock actually unfolds at the bedside, and why a discussion about encephalopathic frogs somehow makes perfect sense in the middle of it all. It’s thoughtful, clinical, and a reminder that critical care attracts people who think hard—even when the topic gets strange. 📲Follow us on Social Media: 📸 Instagram: https://instagram.com/thefullcodepodcast 📘 Facebook: https://facebook.com/thefullcodepodcast 🎵 TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@fullcodepodcast ✉️ Email: thefullcodepodcast@gmail.com 🔔 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the bell to stay updated on our latest episodes! #CriticalCare #ICUNurse #RegisteredNurse #NursingPodcast #HealthcarePodcast #MedicalPodcast #CriticalCareLife #CardiogenicShock #ICUeducation #NurseStories #LifeBeforeNursing #CriticalThinking #ScienceInMedicine #EncephalopathicFrogs
