  • 151: Caring Close to Home: How Point-of-Care EEG and Community Innovation Are Changing ICU Care
    Dec 5 2025

    Rural nursing is anything but simple. They have limited resources, fewer specialists, and often have to send patients hours away from their families for a higher level of care. But all that is changing as new tech like Zeto brings monitoring right to the bedside and keeps more patients close to home.

    In this episode, ICU nurse leader Kristen RN shares how point-of-care EEG has empowered her team to catch subclinical seizures sooner and make faster, more informed clinical decisions. From buy-in to implementation, you'll hear how she advocated for her community and successfully integrated this technology into a small ICU. If you work in a rural or resource-limited facility, don't miss this one!


    Topics discussed in this episode:


    • The unique challenges rural nurses and hospitals face
    • Why keeping patients close to home matters
    • How telemedicine and new tech are transforming rural healthcare
    • Why subclinical seizures are hard to recognize
    • How Zeto’s spot EEG helps nurses keep more patients close to home
    • The positive impact on team confidence and patient care
    • How you can advocate for the tools your community needs

  • 150: Sepsis-Induced Cardiomyopathy with Dr. Mahmoud Ibrahim MD
    Nov 21 2025

    Your pneumonia patient is hypotensive, tachycardic, and not responding to fluids… what did you miss? It could be sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy, a common under-recognized shock state you could see at the bedside.

    In this episode, Dr. Mahmoud Ibrahim MD and host Sarah Lorenzini use a case study to highlight how nurses, intensivists and the ICU team can work together to recognize the signs of sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy early and give patients a better chance at recovery. You'll learn the diagnostic clues that your patient’s heart is in trouble, how to approach controversial treatments like sodium bicarb, and what has to happen before intubation in a dual shock state.


    Topics discussed in this episode:


    • What the initial bedside assessment says about the patient
    • Treatment priorities for the  intensivist and nurse
    • Signs that point to more than just sepsis
    • Why fluids aren’t always the answer
    • Blood pressure management: vasopressors and inotropes
    • Pathophysiology of sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy
    • How a sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy diagnosis changes treatment
    • The vasopressin debate for sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy
    • Clues your intervention isn’t working and what to do next
    • How to prepare the patient for high-risk intubation
    • What you need to know about administering sodium bicarb
    • Why collaboration matters at every step for patient recovery

Sarah thank you for being such a wonderful advocate and educator. I'm an ICU nurse of a little less than 5 years and I love listening to your podcast. I'm inspired by your ability to advocate and communicate and I learn so much from your stories! Your podcast was recommended to me from a friend and I now share it with everyone I can. You make learning fun and palletable and offer a model of how to be persistent and clear without being abrasive or rude. I'm inspired by your communication skills and learn so much from this platform. Thank you again for putting it together :)

Educate and advocate. Sarah will inspire you to be the best you can for your patients.

“My gut feeling was the one that saved her. Charge nurse refused to call the hospitalist and when she finally did, the NP hospitalist placed orders without assessing the patient. The sitter did not see anyone come in the room except me every 15 min to check on the patient. At this point I was livid and finally got everyone at the bedside just in the nick of time before the patient coded. I wish I had listened to this podcast and I would have been on the phone with the night supervisor."

Had similar experience post-op hysterectomy
