    Update: Acetaminophen OD

    Acetaminophen overdose is one of the most common medication concerns we see in the ED. It is important to know when to be concerned and when to treat as true overdoses can cause liver failure and death. UC Davis medical toxicologist, Dr. Hoan Nguyen, joins us in this episode to discuss a new consensus statement published in JAMA Network Open in August 2023: Managing of Acetaminophen Poisoning in the US and Canada. We discuss the updated approach and walk through as hypothetical case. At the end of this episode, you’ll be able to identify high risk patients, know what labs to draw, when to start NAC, transfer, and call your local toxicologist. Do these updated guidelines change your practice?

    Push Dose Pearls: Naloxone

    This is the next episode of our Push Dose Pearls miniseries with ED Clinical Pharmacist, Chris Adams. In this ongoing series we’ll dig into some of the questions we all have about medications we commonly see and use in the ED. This episode focuses on naloxone. Naloxone is a staple in every ED docs toolbox but it can save more lives if it’s immediately available in the community. We’ll discuss ED based naloxone programs, why they are important, how to get funding, and which patients could benefit.  Do you give out naloxone in your ED? Is it readily available in your community? We’d love to hear your experience.

    Sent to the ED

    Many of our ED patients come in because they were told to. Whether it’s by an advice nurse, primary care provider, urgent care, call center, specialty coordinator, etc., it often feels to us like the default is “go to the ED”. But, of course, that’s not the case. There are myriad reasons why patients may be sent to the ED. In this episode, we talk with two of our favorite outpatient physicians - a Pediatrician and an Internist - about when and why they refer patients to the ED, as well as what they do to try to keep them out of the ED!  Did you learn something new?
