  1. We Got the Beat

    DEC 10

    We Got the Beat

    Over 3 million Americans rely on pacemakers, with 200,000 implanted each year. These small, battery-powered devices use electrical impulses to keep hearts beating at a steady rhythm. However, pacemaker technology is advancing rapidly and there are new, innovative options available. Join us as we discuss how dual chamber leadless pacemakers are transforming heart care by offering a wireless, less invasive alternative to traditional pacemakers. This innovative device uses two small wireless implants placed directly in the heart. The device lasts longer and has fewer complications for those who are eligible to receive it. Host Shelli Dankoff chats with Michael Broman, MD, PhD, the cardiac electrophysiologist at OSF HealthCare doing the procedure, and Brock Doehring, a sales representative from Abbott, the company that developed the device. They’ll shed light on how the dual chamber leadless pacemaker reduces risks, simplifies recovery and represents a major step forward in heart care.

    Elevating Care by Putting Relevant Data at the Forefront

    You head to your provider’s office for a visit. Wouldn’t it be great if you could feel confident they had all of the pertinent information they needed for your visit? Join us as we discuss Clinipane, an innovative solution that brings essential patient information to the forefront during appointments. With the support of a Jump ARCHES grant, this new tool leverages AI to sift through vast amounts of data in electronic medical records, presenting clinicians with real-time, relevant insights tailored to each patient’s needs. Host Shelli Dankoff chats with Roopa Foulger, vice president, Digital Innovation Development, OSF Innovation and Jonathan Handler, MD, FACEP, FAMIA, senior fellow, OSF Innovation to learn how this technology is set to improve patient safety, streamline care and transform the clinical experience by reducing information overload and enhancing decision-making.

    Reconstructing and Giving Hope

    Fish skin, pig intestine, pig bladder, cow tendon and more – oh my! It’s not something out of Oz. These are things being used to save people from having limbs amputated. Join us as we discuss the work of an OSF HealthCare vascular surgeon to save patients from amputation through advanced regenerative reconstruction. He does it through procedures currently reserved for the most serious of cases like severe bacterial infection, traumatic crushed limbs and lower limb ulcers that have become infected and spread throughout the body. OSF HealthCare Saint Francis Medical Center in Peoria is the only location in Illinois performing advanced regenerative reconstruction procedures at this level. Host Shelli Dankoff chats with this surgeon, Eric Martin, DO, chief of Vascular Surgery at OSF Saint Francis, about how he has crafted a predictable and consistent method that provides reliable outcomes for heroic limb salvage. Special guests for this episode include Jessica Collins, a surgical specialist at Kerecis, OSF patient Tim Rayner, OSF patient Katelynn Aukes, and her mother, Kristy Aukes.

    Working to Improve Early Breast Cancer Detection for High-Risk Patients

    No one wants to face the journey of cancer, especially with the added fear of breast cancer for women. But for those at high risk, there's something that can help detect breast cancer earlier. Join us as we discuss the risk assessment program for breast health at OSF HealthCare. CancerIQ is a tool OSF uses to help identify patients at a high risk of getting cancer based on their personal and family histories. As part of that assessment, some high-risk patients are identified as eligible for getting breast MRIs in addition to their annual mammograms. Host Shelli Dankoff chats with Roopa Fougler, vice president, Digital Innovation Development, and Michele Settelmyer, APN, Oncology services, to discuss how this program plays a key role in early detection of breast cancer and helps patients navigate necessary follow up appointments.
