    In this episode, I discuss a paper that was published in the British Columbia Medical Journal, entitled “Climate impact of inhaler therapy in the Fraser Health region, 2016-2021” that estimates the impact of pressured metered-dose inhaler therapy in a region of Canada.

    A Week in the Life of a Field Researcher

    In this episode, I share some of my work related to lung health in partnership with Carrier Sekani Family Services and First Nations communities in north central British Columbia. I talk a bit about why I am doing this work, then described some of the activities we did on our recent trip a couple of weeks ago. I mention some of the principles I bring as the researcher to this work, in terms of responsibility, opportunity, flexibility and accountability, and why I’m drawn to the unpredictable nature of research down outside of the hospital or university setting. If you’d like to know more about Carrier Sekani Family Services, their website is www.csfs.org If you’d like to hear me speak about this work in more detail, feel free to email me at pat.camp@hli.ubc.ca If you’d like to read a couple of papers which describe this work, you can find them here: 1.

    ARE PULSE OXIMETERS RACIST? WHAT I LEARNED ABOUT HEALTH EQUITY AND STRUCTURAL RACISM AT ATS 2023   On this episode I share some of what I learned about health equity and structural racism while at the American Thoracic Society conference in Washington, DC, with a focus on spirometry reference equations and pulse oximetry.  I mention several papers in this episode, here they are with their links.

    Working Together: Collaborative Practice in Pulmonary Rehabilitation

    Well we missed celebrating our big 5-0 episode a few weeks back and so we will make up for that in the near future! In this episode I am talking about Collaborative Practice in Pulmonary Rehabilitation & how different individuals and disciplines work together to provide rehab programs. The definition of pulmonary rehab includes language about how it's a multidisciplinary intervention, but the reality of many programs is that so often it is just one or two people who are doing everything, but that doesn't mean collaboration doesn't happen or can't happen.  So let’s lean in and explore the concepts of collaborative practice in this episode! I talk about this paper in this episode: PR in Canada- A report from CTS And this paper from CIHC  here. I welcome your feedback about the show or ideas for future episodes. You can contact me via the comments section here on the LungFIT website. If you listen to the LungFIT podcast on iTunes, please take a moment to review the show. Click here to be directed.
