    Commotio Cordis - A life threatening trauma

    Commotio Cordis - A life threatening trauma

    One of the scariest scenes unfolded this past Monday night for the world to see. There was great excitement for this game, as two of the best teams in the NFL were competing head-to-head with playoff implications. A packed stadium and a buzz that only great teams can generate. Shortly after the game had started the unthinkable occurred…

    24-year-old Damar Hamlin was injured on the field. Just a routine tackle. A play that you’ve seen numerous times in a game and one that you would never think twice about. As Hamlin stood up, he soon then collapsed back down and lay motionless on the field. Doctors rushed by his side, administered CPR, and 20 minutes later he was rushed to the hospital by ambulance.

    Dr. Grant Garcia wanted to share some information about what happened and explain what Commotio Cordis is: a trauma to your chest, a type of injury that is usually associated with Baseball, Lacrosse, Hockey, and combat sports. Dr. Garcia wants to let coaches and families know how to be prepared and recognize the difference between a common injury and a life-threatening one.

    The best of 2022 - Tech, surgeries, wearables, and more

    The best of 2022 - Tech, surgeries, wearables, and more

    Happy New Year!!!

    As we get excited about all the possibilities and new shows for 2023, we look back at some of our favorite topics and conversations of 2022.

    In 2022, we talked about several hot topics including the future of cartilage, meniscus, and ACL surgeries. We discussed internal bracing, fantastic tech wearables, and what it takes to make it to the next level. We thought a fun show looking back at some of our top segments would allow our listeners to hear some of the highlights they may have missed or some they may want to hear again.

    In response to some of these segments, we have had a few updates including the introduction of one of the first cartilage stimulation products with Cartiheal Agili-C Implant (tag) which may be the future of cartilage transplants. Also, ACL repair (tag) has taken off including the tightrope and internal brace combination that has been impressing Dr. Garcia and his patients on their speedy recovery as we enter 2023. Finally, wearable technology was taken one step further at the World Cup in which high-tech soccer balls and player tracking apps were used to provide the best experience yet and allowed a fairer and safer tournament. (Read: https://www.jumpstartmag.com/4-cutting-edge-technologies-used-in-fifa-world-cup-qatar-22/)

    Thank you to all our listeners. We hope you enjoy this 2022 recap podcast, and we look forward to bringing you new and exciting shows in 2023.

    Robotics, cameras and rehab. A perfect combination

    Robotics, cameras and rehab. A perfect combination

    Robotics, cameras, and rehab. A perfect combination. 

    Orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Grant Garcia discusses a new technology that will revolutionize how patients can rehab and how surgeons can teach. We start out discussing the Avail system. A camera system that utilizes technology, networking, and software to combine the perfect partnership. This Avail system will allow doctors to learn and teach in a way they haven't done before.

    One technology that has the industry buzzing is coming from the company Hrobotics. They have come out with an FDA-registered robotic, physical therapy device for both the upper and lower extremities called Rebless. Rebles allows for passive, active, active-assisted, and resisted training and range of motion measurement, so therapy can be customized based on each patient’s condition and progress. To simplify, as a patient you can take this machine home, and your doctor can program, monitor, and adjust your rehab in real-time. This device can do much more and Dr. Garcia explains all of it. Take a listen, get informed, and enjoy.

    Tua, Concussions and NFL Protocols

    Tua, Concussions and NFL Protocols

    Like any other night for football fans, Thursday Night Football is a time to sit back, root for your teams, and enjoy the game. A fast-moving, action-packed, adrenaline-filled sport that is fascinating to watch. We watch the game in awe, we connect, and it reminds us of our communities and love of the sport at every stage of our childhood. We know with this violent game comes injuries, we expect them, we hope not to see them, but they are inevitable. Blown ACLs, shoulders, ankles, and sometimes frightening compound fractures. These injuries are obvious and then there are those that are by far the scariest of injuries...Head injuries. Concussions. The dirty little word that football leagues don't want us to talk about. An injury that for years the NFL had lied about. The repercussions of this type of injury, until Dr. Bennet Omalu exposed the NFL and the catastrophic results of these injuries. We know the risk, the players know the risk and so does the NFL. 

    In this show, Dr. Grant Garcia discusses the injury that quarterback Tua Tangoviola suffered, and the concerns with concussions. Especially, Second Impact Syndrome. He discusses Fencing, Gross Motor Instability, and the doctors' responsibilities to his patient. What can or should be done moving forward to fix these protocols that seem to have loopholes in them? How does the responsibility of a doctor to his patient affect the decision-making when it comes to million-dollar athletes and their billion-dollar owners?

    If anything, we hope that this show reminds parents and coaches of the big picture especially when it comes to the health of your kids, and players.
