  • Clinical Challenges in Surgical Palliative Care: Communication Skills for Difficult Conversations

    Clinical Challenges in Surgical Palliative Care: Communication Skills for Difficult Conversations
    May 6 2024
    Your patient was in a terrible car crash and is currently intubated with multiple traumatic injuries that will need surgery. Family has just arrived and all they’ve heard is that he has a broken leg. How do you share this serious news with family? What do you do when they become angry, cry or bombard you with questions that you don’t have answers to? Join the surgical palliative care team from the University of Washington as we role play a difficult conversation with a standardized patient. We will identify common challenges that arise and discuss key skills to navigate these situations.

    Hosts:

    Dr. Katie O’Connell (@katmo15) is an assistant professor of surgery at the University of Washington. She is a trauma surgeon, palliative care physician, director of surgical palliative care, and founder of the Advance Care Planning for Surgery clinic at Harborview Medical Center, Seattle, WA.

    Dr. Ali Haruta is a PGY7 current palliative care fellow at the University of Washington, formerly a UW general surgery resident and Parkland trauma/critical care fellow.

    Dr. Lindsay Dickerson (@lindsdickerson1) is a PGY5 general surgery resident and current surgical oncology research fellow at the University of Washington.

    Dr. Virginia Wang is a PGY2 general surgery resident at the University of Washington.

    Learning Objectives:

    · Identify common pitfalls encountered during difficult conversations
    · Learn how to synthesize complex medical information and construct a succinct headline statement to deliver a digestible take-home message
    · Develop skills to respond to emotional cues using empathetic statements

  • Journal Review in Hepatobiliary Surgery: ctDNA & Colorectal Liver Metastasis

    Journal Review in Hepatobiliary Surgery: ctDNA & Colorectal Liver Metastasis
    May 2 2024
    Circulating tumor DNA, more commonly referred to as ctDNA, has emerged as an attractive and potentially highly sensitive biomarker for patients with colorectal cancer. But what exactly is ctDNA, does it have any prognostic value for patients with colorectal liver metastasis, and how can it be incorporated into the management of said patients? In this episode from the HPB team at Behind the Knife, listen in on the discussion about ctDNA and its role in the perioperative management of colorectal liver metastasis.

    Hosts
    Anish J. Jain MD (@anishjayjain) is a T32 Research Fellow at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center within the Department of Surgical Oncology.

    Timothy E. Newhook MD, FACS (@timnewhook19) is an Assistant Professor within the Department of Surgical Oncology. He is also the associate program director of the HPB fellowship at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.

    Jean-Nicolas Vauthey MD, FACS (@VautheyMD) is Professor of Surgery and Chief of the HPB Section, as well as the Dallas/Fort Worth Living Legend Chair of Cancer Research in the Department of Surgical Oncology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center

    Learning Objectives:
    -Develop an understanding of what circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is.
    -Develop an understanding of what makes ctDNA unique from other “tumor markers” like CEA.
    -Develop an understanding of the prognostic value of ctDNA for colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM).
    -Develop an understanding of the current role of ctDNA in the perioperative treatment of patients with CRLM.
    -Develop an understanding of how ctDNA can be incorporated into future treatment algorithms for patients undergoing hepatic resection for CRLM.
