  1. POCUS for Delirium and Agitation: Be ABLE

    ٢٨ سبتمبر

    POCUS for Delirium and Agitation: Be ABLE

    Our population is aging, and with that comes an increase in the number of older adults in emergency departments. Delirium affects up to 1/3 older adults who present to the ED and is a medical emergency that is often overlooked by ED clinicians. In this episode of GEMCast host Dr. Christina Shenvi discusses the importance of recognising delirium, documenting it, and intervening where possible in the ED with Dr. Kayla Furlong and Dr. Gillian Sheppard. Dr. Furlong and Dr. Sheppard are both emergency medicine physicians in St. John’s, Newfoundland & Labrador, who are experts in point of care ultrasound (POCUS). Dr. Furlong is a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Medicine at Memorial University and is the Chair of the CAEP Geriatric EM Committee. Dr. Sheppard is an Associate Professor and Chair of the Discipline of Emergency Medicine at Memorial University. She is also a Diplomate of the Royal College of Physicians of Canada with an Area of Focused Competence in POCUS and is the education lead for the Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians Emergency Ultrasound Committee. They have taken a special interest in whether the use of POCUS increases the ED clinicians’ ability to determine the aetiology of a geriatric patient’s delirium or agitation, and in doing so have developed the ABLE approach. They discuss why and how POCUS can be a useful tool and provide helpful tips for ED clinicians for how to implement POCUS. Tune in to learn more about how to approach older adults in the ED considering delirium, agitation, and the challenges they present.

    Precision Relief: Nerve Blocks for Pain in Older Patients

    In today’s episode host Dr. Christina Shenvi is joined by Dr. Robert Sternberg, Ultrasound Director at Akron General to discuss ultrasound-guided nerve blocks for precise pain relief in older patients. Ultrasound-guided nerve blocks provide relief from one of the most common emergency department complaints: pain. In addition to their use in acute pain management, nerve blocks can help reduce the use of opioids, reduce hospital length of stay, and improve patient outcomes and experiences. Using case examples, Dr. Sternberg talks through how to perform 4 common types of nerve blocks you may use in the emergency department with an elderly patient: Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block (FICB), Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block, Serratus Anterior Plane (SAP) Block and Erector Spinae Block (ESB). Tune in to hear indications, key anatomical landmarks, dosing, and techniques for each of the nerve blocks.

    Why Less Is More: Strategies For Deprescribing In The ED

    With the upcoming implementation of the new CMS age-friendly hospital measure, hospitals will be required to attest that they review medications to identify potentially inappropriate medications (PIMS) for older adults. Dr. Martin Casey, MD, MPH is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Emergency Medicine at UNC School of Medicine. Dr. Caseys’ work has focused on the identifying PIMS and finding opportunities to reduce the use of, and deprescribe, potentially harmful medications in the emergency department. In this episode, Dr. Christina Shenvi and Dr. Martin Casey will discuss strategies for ED physicians who face unique challenges when assessing older patients’ medications. Using case examples of deprescribing in practice, they illustrate how deprescribing is a nuanced skill and how to approach it.
