    EM Quick Hits 71 EMC²: Fever Without a Source, Coaching the EM Mind Part 1, Traumatic Pneumothorax Part 2, PECARN C-spine Rule, Medetomidine Withdrawal, EMS Handover
    Mar 10 2026
    In this month's EM Quick Hits Podcast we introduce not one, but two new series! First, "EMC²" - EM Cases Cases (we know, horrible name ;) where Anton or Katie discuss a knowledge building case with a special guest. And second, "Coaching the EM Mind" with Dr. Sara Gray a professional coach for EM providers, where Katie discusses with her the science and best expert advice on how to perform your best in the ED. Plus, a withdrawal syndrome that is new EDs, life-threatening and requires specific treatment - metetomadine withdrawal, EMS handover done right, why community ED docs should not use the PECARN C-spine Rule and Part 2 of Petro's tips on management of traumatic pneumothorax...

  • Ep 214 Bridging the Gap in Endometriosis Care: Recognition, Risk Stratification, and ED-Initiated Management

    Ep 214 Bridging the Gap in Endometriosis Care: Recognition, Risk Stratification, and ED-Initiated Management
    Feb 25 2026
    We walk you through what Emergency Physicians need to know to recognize, risk stratify, and manage endometriosis safely and pragmatically. We answer question such as: When should endometriosis rise to the top of the differential for pelvic pain? How do we distinguish an endometriosis flare from a dangerous endometriosis complication? from Pelvic Inflammatory Disease? Why hemorrhagic cyst the most common misdiagnosis for endometriosis and how can we tell the difference between hemorrhagic cyst and endometrioma? Which hormonal therapy is safe, reasonable and effective to start in the ED? What are the most common life-threatening complications of endometriosis we should be on the lookout for in the ED? How do we discharge patients with suspected endometriosis safely and reduce repeat visits? and many more...

  • Ep 213 Update in Management of Status Epilepticus

    Ep 213 Update in Management of Status Epilepticus
    Feb 10 2026
    Convulsive status epilepticus is one of the most morbid neurologic emergencies we manage in the ED, and outcomes depend far more on speed than drug selection. Like ventricular fibrillation, each minute of ongoing convulsions worsens hypoxia, acidosis, cardiovascular instability, and neuronal injury, while making seizures progressively harder to terminate. Modern definitions are intentionally time-compressed to force early, parallel, clock-anchored action. Any patient still convulsing when you reach the bedside should be treated as evolving status epilepticus. In this EM Cases podcast with Dr. Sara Gray, we take a practical, time-based approach to convulsive status epilepticus, focusing on early, adequately dosed benzodiazepines, avoiding common escalation and dosing pitfalls, anticipating post-ictal cardiovascular collapse, and knowing when to escalate to second-line agents, airway control, and anesthetic-dose therapy. We also address the transition to non-convulsive status epilepticus and how to recognize ongoing seizures when EEG is not immediately available. We answer questions such as: Why does time to first benzodiazepine matter more than the drug or route? What critical actions should occur in parallel with the first dose? What are 3 key actions to do in parallel with the first benzodiazepine? Why is underdosing second-line antiseizure medications—especially levetiracetam—a common and dangerous pitfall? When should persistent seizures trigger intubation and anesthetic-dose therapy? How can we identify non-convulsive status epilepticus once tonic-clonic activity stops? And many more (we also include a high yield status epilepticus management algorithm in the show notes!)...
