Broomedocs POdcast

I have learned a lot about the rational prescribing of vancomycin in the last few years and have read literally hundreds of papers on the topic. In true "Broome Docs" style I have dived deep down the rabbit hole of pharmacological, microbiological and clinical literature to bring you what I think is a 'better way' to use vancomycin in small, rural hospitals.

Dr Justin Morgenstern and Damian Roland do a deep dive into the latest data around Paeds Seizure management after Eclipse and Consept trials were published. Or maybe there is a better way?

Sadly, the final SMACC conference danced its last moves on Friday. It was an amazing week with lots of learning, inspiration and camaraderie. After the last SMACC in Berlin Justin and I resolved to try and create the best journal club ever at the final SMACC in Sydney.... and I reckon we have done it!

A series of chats with some new and old friends at the #GPDU18 conference

This month we cover biases, show our biases about bronchiolitis therapy, cute scrotums, judging and dealing with capacity and how butt-slapping might help you delouse your colleagues.... [DISCLAIMER: we do not recommend that extradural hemorrhage ever be treated with an Ezy-IO drill, it is silly and dangerous.] If any of that sounds like your deal then have a listen. If you are super patient and listen all the way through there is a real treat for you.... ... a world premiere musical parody song by Dr. Gerry Considine and yours truly. ( we are kinda like Elton & Bernie)

In this month's episode Justin and I cover chest pain, LPs, nebulised furosemide and of course the sport of Quidditch

Welcome back to the Journal Club with Dr Justin Morgenstern. It has been 2 months since we last dusted off the papers on Justin's bedside table... but like a mythical (nerdy) Sisyphus Justin must push another load of evidence out into the ether in order to go back and start the whole process again. This episode is on steroids. I mean it is largely about steroids, not actually "on steroids" but there is a sprinkling of other stuff and a bit of philosophical banter about machine learning at the end. So sit back, grab a beverage and tune in for another hour of evidence and education from our corners of the world.

NEWS: I am launching a new podcast segment The working Title is: Rob's Probs and Casey's Cases (Ed: may change if we come up with something better) The new podcast series is all about CLINICAL REASONING.

Hi all This is a guest vodcast from one of my Obstetric Anaesthesia mentors Dr Roger Browning. Roger is a great bloke and a Consultant Anaesthetist with particular interests in Obstetric haemorrhage and thromboelastography in major haemorrhage. I have been lucky enough to attend a few of the live teaching sessions that Roger chairs at King Edward's Hospital for Women in Perth. This lecture was taken from that session. Apologies it is a little longer than the usual podcast, but plenty of food for thought for anyone doing Caesars or Anaesthetics out there.

At the last SMACC outing in Dublin there was a stand-out lecture by Dr Ross Fisher ( @ffoliet ) entitled: Things that Scare Me. Ross is a bit of a presentation guru - and hence he had plenty of pressure on to deliver a great talk.... and he did exactly that. It was a pin-drop-silently, slideless baring of the soul. This is the back story behind the talk that lead Ross to learn a lot about himself and how doctors sometimes behave towards one another.

This episode of Lessons Hard Learned comes from Johannesburg in South Africa - I am joined by Dr Tori Stephen to discuss a tough trauma case and some pearls from trauma on ultrasound and clinical decision-making in traumatic crises!.

October 2016 Journa Club Another month of interesting reading - articles of the month journal club with Dr Justin Morgenstern.

This vodcast is a version of the talk I gave last week at the ACEM Annual Scientific meeting in Perth. We were asked to present a "challenging case" - I decided to present a trauma case that I think represents the maturation of my trauma practice. The case is pretty straightforward. However, there are a few concepts thrown in that you may not have heard before. Airway management, massive transfusion, head injury... it is a tough case.

Its a new month and that means a new episode of the First10EM / Broomedocs Journal club. I have learned so much by just hanging out with Justin and reading the papers he digs up each month. I hope you are learning the easy way too! This month we have 10 papers for you with topics ranging from massive haemoptysis to "Tweeting drunk en route to ED"... So sit back, grab a beverage and listen in for the JC with J&C.

This episode of "Lessons" is a little different. My guest is Dr Heidi James, Canadian Primary care doc, and one of the voices of the Primary Care RAP podcast. Heidi and I have worked together in the Hippo ED shed on the Primary Care RAP for a few years and we seem to have a lot in common when it comes to work, life and the all important balance. So we decided to yarn about how we make it work with family, work and all the other stuff life throws our way. Can we have it all? What advice would we give given what we know now? There is even a tale involving fatherhood, faeces and the fruit section....

Today's "Lesson" is all about knowing one's limitations, scope of practice and appreciating the little voice inside one's noggin. Dr Andy Buck is an ED Physician who works all over Australia, but is based in Melbourne where he runs the very excellent Emergency Trauma Management course. This is a case of procedural sedation which goes a little awry. It is a nice counterpoint to all of the stuff we hear about safety, "fasting status" and the classic - "easy intubation, rocky extubation" scenario.

Another lesson Hard Learned episode. This week I am joined by Dr Anand Swaminathan from Bellevue Hospital in NYC. Anand shares a tricky case involving the treatment of a VIP patient in his ED. We discuss a few strategies to help keep both you and the patient safe when we are treating VIPs. Casey
