  • The ads make no sense

    The content is excellent! I would appreciate a little more humor but that’s just a personal preference about podcasts.

    The main issue is the ads. Way too often ads are being placed in weird spots (even mid sentence at times) rather than at natural transition points. The content of the ads also makes little sense. This is a podcast for healthcare professionals and many times the ads seem way out of touch with the audience. For example, there were many ads encouraging the audience to apply for tr... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Strabismus: Symptoms, Causes & Treatment
Q: So does strabismus only occur in children? And how does it differ from amblyopia? What's the treatment and how effective is it?
Dr. Bothun explains that strabismus has both congenital (childhood) and acquired forms, with risk factors like family history and prematurity. Amblyopia often accompanies strabismus due to unequal visual input, and treatment involves aligning the eyes, reestablishing binocular vision, and addressing any underlying eye health issues. In children, treatment may include glasses, patching, and sometimes surgery to realign the eyes, with success varying by individual and the potential for the brain to adapt. In adults, prisms or surgical refinements (such as adjustable sutures) may be used, and lifelong follow-up is common because the brain can drift again.
Focused Shockwave Therapy for Musculoskeletal Disorders
Q: How does shockwave therapy fit with other treatments like physical therapy or PRP?
Shockwave is most effective when combined with supervised exercise or physical therapy, and some clinicians are exploring synergistic use with PRP, though optimal sequencing is still being researched; generally, combination therapy tends to yield better outcomes than shockwave alone.
Focused Shockwave Therapy for Musculoskeletal Disorders
Q: What conditions seem to benefit most from focused shockwave therapy?
Soft tissue injuries like plantar fasciopathy and common extensor tendinopathy show strong evidence, with calcific rotator cuff tendinopathy also responding well; bone-related issues like non-union and certain stress injuries are favored too, though high-grade tears may warrant alternative approaches.
Pulmonary Embolism
Q: Is there any indication for using warfarin anymore, given DOACs are common now?
Warfarin remains indicated in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome or certain conditions; otherwise DOACs are preferred for most outpatient management due to ease of use, but warfarin is still valuable in specific, complex cases.
Pulmonary Embolism
Q: What are some initial diagnostic tests we should order if we think a patient has a PE?
Begin with a thorough history and physical, calculate pre-test probability (Wells criteria), obtain CBC and chemistry, use D-dimer when appropriate, and proceed to imaging such as CT angiography or V/Q if indicated, with biomarker tests like NT-proBNP and troponin to assess right heart strain in larger emboli.
