  • Medicine Consult Series: Ep. 1 - Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation
    Sep 16 2024
    You're the new intern on your first night of night float. First page, right off the bat – AFib with rates into the 150s. What's your next move?! Dr. Nathan Anderson takes the anxiety out of approaching Atrial Fibrillation in the post-operative patient. Join him and Dr. Elizabeth Maginot as they discuss this very common post-operative you're guaranteed to see on the wards.

    Hosts:
    - Dr. Nathan Anderson, Internal Medicine Associate Professor and Hospitalist, University of Nebraska
    - Dr. Elizabeth Maginot, General Surgery Resident and BTK Surgical Education Fellow, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Twitter: @e_magination95

    Learning Objectives:
    - Discuss the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms that contribute to the development of atrial fibrillation in the postoperative setting.
    - Critically approach the different management options for atrial fibrillation in the post-cardiac and non-cardiac surgery settings, including rate versus rhythm control, indications for cardioversion, and the role of anticoagulation.
    - Identify common risk factors for atrial fibrillation in the post-operative setting.
    - Discuss long-term management and follow-up strategies for patients who develop atrial fibrillation after surgery.

  • Clinical Challenges in Burn Surgery: Burn Resuscitation - Titrating and Troubleshooting - Part 2 of 2
    Sep 9 2024
    A patient with a large TBSA burn injury is transferred to a regional burn center. You are faced with some difficult clinical decisions as the resuscitation proves to be challenging. Join Drs. Tam Pham, Rob Cartotto, Julie Rizzo, Alex Morzycki and Jamie Oh as they discuss the clinical challenges in titrating and troubleshooting during acute burn resuscitation.

    Hosts:

    · Dr. Julie Rizzo: Brooke Army Medical Center
    · Dr. Alex Morzycki: UW Medicine Regional Burn Center
    · Dr. Jamie Oh: UW Medicine Regional Burn Center

    Learning Objectives:
    · Understand the role of colloids as complement/rescue to standard crystalloid fluid titration.
    · Identify the fluid threshold associated with development of abdominal compartment syndrome
    · Understand the role of continuous renal replacement therapy for patients with acute kidney injury during the resuscitation phase.
    · List specific patient populations who may experience a more difficult resuscitation.
