Episode 27 – Renal Ultrasound

admin — Mon, 07 May 2012 01:15:30 +0000

OK, so we feel kind of guilty/lazy…

about posting these lectures from Castlefest, but they’re WAY too good not to. We feel guilty because it saves us hours and hours of editing and creating new videos and such. But we’ve been getting some requests for more basic topics, and it doesn’t get much more basic than this: Renal Ultrasound. So it’s not that we’ve gotten lazy on you…..you asked for this!

Before you decide not to download because there’s no E/A wave sexiness here take solace in the fact that this is a quicky. 15 min. We tried to talk fast and pack it in for you. Enjoy!

Episode 26 – Ocular Ultrasound with Chris Fox

admin — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 19:16:36 +0000

Chris Fox, Castlefest, and Alaskafest 2012!!

So we just finished maybe the most amazing week of our lives (besides our wedding and babies’ birth – We love you wives if you’re reading this!) Castlefest is over, and we’ve got some special Castlefest footage for you. Chris Fox is coming into your earbuds this month to teach you about Ocular ultrasound. And yes, I know Castlefest has just ended, but we don’t like to live in the past. We’ve got a special announcement today. ALASKAFEST 2012! I’d tell you about it right now, but why don’t you just watch the episode and we explain everything fully at the end. Or if you REALLY can’t wait go to www.alaskafest2012.com. We’ve got room for about 1/4th of the people we had at Castlefest, so don’t get mad at us if it’s full. Registration is open now.

p.s. – audio for this episode isn’t perfect as it’s recorded from a lapel mic at Castlefest, but it’s Chris Fox people, so quit your complaining…….

App Fix Update

admin — Thu, 12 Apr 2012 14:16:09 +0000

We’ve noticed (and some of you as well) that many times the app must be refreshed before it’s first use. This doesn’t cause any issues other than being annoying. After you refresh the first time, you’ll never have to worry about it again. An update has been submitted to Apple for version 1.1 release that will fix this issue. Thanks for your support!

Special App Announcement

admin — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 22:50:02 +0000

Special announcement

One-Minute Ultrasound App is now Free! We found out it was going to be much harder than expected to have both the free and paid versions of the app in the app store at the same time. And since our main goal is to get this in your hands ASAP, we’re switching the paid app to free. All we really ask is that you PLEASE give us a good rating and review. If something doesn’t work or needs improvement, email us and we’ll fix it. We know that at first release there can be some issues with bugs, so let us know and we’ll be all over it. We may or may not change it back to paid in the future, but for now, we’re just gonna make it free with an optional donate button in the app to try and cover costs that way. If you already bought it email us what you think it’s worth and we’ll either except your extra payment or issue you a refund to make up the difference. We think this is a very valuable app, but we don’t want to deter anyone from having and using it by attaching a price. So here it is. Take it as our gift to you!

p.s. – If you bought it last night and don’t think it’s worth what you paid for it, just email us and we’ll refund your money. We’ve already got stellar reviews, though! Check out the one from someone named ”Michael Mallin”. He seemed to really like it!

p.p.s – If you’ve attempted using this on your iPad, we realize it’s a little ugly. We’re currently working on a better interface to make the app more tablet friendly. So, hold tight, we’ll make it better.

Episode 25 – EPSS + App Release

admin — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 00:14:54 +0000

EPSS and APPS!!

One’s a cool, quick way to measure LVEF, and the other’s the answer to all your ultrasound hopes, dreams, and aspirations! The wait is over! So not long ago we got a suggestion from Scott Weingart:

”Maybe EPSS would be a cool episode.”

Well, our mothers both taught us that

“When The Scott says it…..it’s true”.

So we made it, and he was right. It is a pretty good episode if we do say ourselves. So if you want to learn how to quickly, accurately measure your patient’s ejection fraction then you’ve come to the right place. Sit back and let Mike and Matt get all up in your earbuds and educate you.

As for the App, it’s FINALLY done!

Just to be clear, we would never recommend making an app as it can be a real pain. But it’s here, and we think you’re gonna love it! We’re still working diligently to add more “episodes” to it, and we have plans to double the size of the current app, but it’s already got a TON of content. And as for the price: (SPOILER ALERT) it’s free!……but complicated. There’s going to be a paid and free version with basically the same content. Listen in to the very end of the episode to hear a more detailed explanation. It’s not free to make an app, but we think we’ve creatively figured out a way to get this sweet tool into your hands at no cost to you. Why not tell us now you say? Well we put it at the end because we think this EPSS episode is some pretty quality education and we didn’t want to detract from it with some app nonsense. I mean, come on, smartphones and ultrasound. Who has a smartphone and who uses ultrasound. Both probably fads……..

One Minute Ultrasound Smartphone App

admin — Thu, 15 Mar 2012 21:08:27 +0000

OK, so you may have heard the rumors. Is it true?

Is the Ultrasound Podcast really coming out with an App?

Well, I probably wouldn’t be typing this if it wasn’t.

So here it is! The app is called “One Minute Ultrasound“.

The premise is: We’ve all been to a course or two now, right? You’ve seen a lecture on how to do these things. But right before you go in a room to do it, wouldn’t it be nice to see it demonstrated one more time. I mean not many of us have an “ultrasound director” with us scanning every shift.

So that’s our goal, to teleport ourselves to the bedside with you via your smartphone. We’ve taken the ultrasound procedures and tried to cram a demo of each one with simultaneous video of hand placement, normal images, and pathology all into one minute each. It’s something you can take a look at right before going into a patient’s room, or I’ve been using it to teach med students or residents. It’s great to show them quickly how to do it right before scanning something for the first time. It can take care of the “see one” part of “see one, do one, teach one” and really speed up education as it’s even got pathology pics, which you usually don’t get with your first “see one”.

Now, it’s not actually in the app store yet…..sorry. But we’re very close. Expect it by April 1.

But until then here are some examples and “how-tos” for Ocular, Wall motion abnormality, gallbladder, and Cardiac Output. Enjoy!

Episode 24 – Femoral Nerve

admin — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 14:03:05 +0000

Roar! March is coming in like a lion. A lion that needs a femoral nerve block. How can you do it easily? Ultrasound of course! Watch this latest episode and be one of the cool kids. Knock that femoral nerve block out like a pro. Every time.

Episode 23 – Fluid Responsiveness Part 2

admin — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 10:30:50 +0000

OK. So it’s time to bring home the fluid responsiveness. There’s no way we could punish you with more than 30 minutes of this, so we broke it up. In this episode we give some more examples and talk about some algorithms you can actually use in your practice. Hopefully after this you’ll be able to actually do this yourself.

Don’t forget to follow us on Twitter @ultrasoundpod

Episode 22 – Fluid Responsiveness Part 1

admin — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 12:53:57 +0000

So you want to know if you’re patient’s going to be fluid responsive
but you don’t have the fancy machine that Drs. Weingart and Marik
recently talked about on EmCrit. So what should you do? You could
stand at the bedside and wait for your hospital to purchase said
device, but that may not be the best for you patient. Instead, pull
out ‘ol reliable, your ultrasound machine. We’re gonna teach you how
to predict fluid responsiveness with just your hands and the probe
(and we’re not talking about just measuring the IVC….we know you
know that).
As a bonus, you’re going to learn how to measure Cardiac Output with
just the ultrasound machine, and we’ll give you a demo.

If you haven’t started following us on Twitter, today’s a great day to start. @ultrasoundpod

Weingart & Fluid Responsiveness

admin — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 11:57:57 +0000

February is Fluid Responsiveness Month on The Ultrasound Podcast and
we’ve got a little preview for you here. This is actually snippets
from a conversation we had with Scott Weingart several months ago
talking about several things including fluid responsiveness, cardiac
output, testicles, PE, and more. Enjoy!!

Update: Fluid Responsiveness Podcast Part 1 is now online

Episode 21 – Full Peritonsillar Abscess Podcast

admin — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 10:30:20 +0000

Here it is.

The one and only Rob Orman on the podcast talking about Peritonsillar abscess. If you’ve never heard of him get your head out of wherever it is and go listen to some more of him on ERCAST. Warning: You may see people doing things with probes that will make you lose all respect for them as human beings.

Rob Orman on Ultrasound Podcast to talk about Peritonsillar Abscess.

admin — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 10:00:46 +0000

Some of you may have heard an EMRAP recently (not really recently – maybe 6 months ago) with Rob Orman talking to an ENT doc, Dr. Shiley, about peritonsillar abscess. However, there was NO mention in the podcast of ultrasound, which is a huge part of our workup and treatment. So Mike and I have great respect for Dr. Orman. So much respect that we thought we would lambast him publicly for this OUTRAGE! Actually, he doesn’t have the right probe in his ED to do what we normally do for PTAs, and that’s why he doesn’t do it, but he’s a good enough sport that he agreed to let us “make an example” of him and teach you this skill. So here’s a quick preview of the upcoming podcast.

We’ll have the full version ready to go in a few days.

Episode 20 – EMCrit Cric Commentary

admin — Sat, 07 Jan 2012 01:31:17 +0000

So…

if you’re not listening to Scott Weingart and the EMcrit podcast then….well….I don’t know what to say to you. Stop doing what you’re doing, download every episode, memorize them all, and then come back here. Please don’t waste your time listening to us if you haven’t soaked in the brilliance of the EM/Critical care god that is Scott Weingart. After you’ve done that, then I’m pretty sure you’ll be jonesing for some more Scottness, and we’ve got your fix. Here he is giving his opinion about our recent cric podcast. And like always it’s a pretty opinionated opinion. So take a listen and learn……isn’t his voice sexy?

(Edit: If you have had any issues with this episode playing, it should be resolved now.)

Scott Weingart, MD (also know as @emcrit) recently tweeted about our obsession with heart and testicle ultrasound in response to some inflammatory tweets by Casey (AKA @broomedocs). Well, until then we’d been able to keep the testicle part under wraps, but with the cat out of the bag we’re going all out.

December will be all testicles all the time.

So if you’ve ever been sitting there just dying to scan those testicles dangling in front of you then get ready, grab some eggnog, cuddle up by the fire, and enjoy our Christmas/Hannakuh/Kwanza present to you…….testicles.

What? Who’s ever heard of such! Mainly anyone who’s been reading the literature lately, that’s who. Some pretty sweet lit has been published lately regarding MSK ultrasound and it’s time to get on board. The scaphoid is a little crazy, though, right. A non-long bone, and in the hand. Crazy, you may say, but…… what if you could avoid the CT, MRI or a long wait in an unnecessary thumb SPICA. Well, maybe you can. Take a listen to our expert guest presenter, look up the literature, start practicing, and decide for yourself.

More Podcast Goodness – A Noble Interview

Ok Kids, today we’ve got a twofer for you. We recently had the pleasure of conducting an interview with Dr. Vicki Noble. Yes, that Vicki Noble; the current chair of the ultrasound section of ACEP.

More info about Dr. Noble (as taken from ReachMD):

Dr. Vicki E. Noble practices emergency medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital, where she is the division director for Emergency Ultrasound. Dr. Noble received her medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, and completed a fellowship in emergency ultrasound at St.Luke’s-Roosevelt Hospital in New York. Dr. Noble is certified as a registered diagnostic medical sonographer, a fellow of the Amercian College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP), and the chair councilor for the ultrasound section within ACEP. She has been nominated for the Harvard University Medical School Teaching Award and the Brian McGovern Award for Clinical Excellence at Massachusetts General Hospital. She has taught extensively in emergency ultrasound both in the United States and internationally.

In this podcast…

We get the inside scoop as Dr. Noble talks extensively about the upcoming happenings in the ultrasound section of ACEP including exciting online changes as well as an October meeting. One of our favorite things to ask folks during interviews is what ultrasound techniques they get excited about. Vicki speaks about a recent use of ultrasound to locate a hernia. Sooooo, as a bonus, we’ve added some extra info on using ultrasound to diagnose hernias.

This is definitely a podcast you don’t want to miss. Heck, we’ve even slapped some bloopers onto the end. Every second of this one is chock full of yummy ultrasound goodness. So watch it, download it, give us some feedback, and use the knowledge to go farther in your practice.

BONUS… You don’t want to miss this

OK, guys. You’re definitely going to want to keep it here. In the next few days, keeping in line with our hernia discussion, we’re releasing a hernia case study. We’re having a very special guest help with this discussion. His name is Arnold and he used to “Terminate“. You are NOT going to want to miss this.
