Every resus doc needs to have a holistic approach to shock – MAP and forward flow simply isn’t enough. Here, Matt and I chat a bit about recent things we’ve heard in the world around us, as well as how we use and see the use of the interface concept. Don’t forget to come up ..read more

So over the years I’ve learnt invaluable stuff from each and every one of the colleagues I’ve managed to build a network with, and certainly I have learnt – and unlearnt – a lot from this guy. Here, Rory and I discuss the concept of interfaces that a group of us painstakingly crafted over the ..read more

(version francaise ci-dessous) At our hospital, typical of community hospital intensive care units that do not have an extensive structure of junior and senior trainees who generally staff the university hospitals after hours, medical coverage depends on collaboration between nurses and intensive care doctors as well as their emergency room colleagues. If there is an ..read more

These are without a doubt some of the hidden gems of any boutique conference. At H&R we’ve always had a great time with these, time for instructors to pass on some really actionable, hands-on skills to a small group of really motivated clinicians. BJJ or Self-Defense for Humans & Health Care Workers – we feel ..read more

Here, Sara Crager takes a few minutes to discuss the hemodynamic interfaces with me. Over the next months, I’ll be picking the brains of my co-authors for the fantastic angles they can all bring to our “Trilogy in 4 Parts” (creative title by of course @EMnerd) which we all feel can be a really useful ..read more

We are excited to announce this year’s evolution of our H&R conference, the Hospitalist & Resuscitationist VExUS and Doppler Masterclass!  This exclusive event, produced in collaboration with Flosonics Medical, will take place on September 28th, 2024, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada This masterclass is designed for those who seek a deep dive into the cutting-edge techniques of venous congestion ..read more

A few words about it… HR2025 is about putting it all together. We’ve been talking about the venous side for a long time and it has been fantastic seeing how much it has taken off – at least in the #medtwitter #foamed community. There’s enough data out there to show a real clinical utility of consciously examining the venous compartment. This applies to any hospitalized patients, whether in the ED, the wards or the ICU, so that’s why this year, the H and the R will spend the first day together doing all things VExUS and venous congestion, along with the corresponding workshops, again so that p ..read more

An awesome track by my intensivist friend and co-educator, Segun Olusanya, where he probes the mind of a seriously next-level physiologist, particularly about the formula he devised to estimate Pmsf. Not to be missed by bedside physiologists of all levels! https://player.vimeo.com/video/948962900?badge=0&autopause=0&player_id=0&app_id=58479 The Interview (Audio) cheers! Philippe ..read more

Had the honour of being invited to give grand rounds by Dr. Paul Mayo and share some thoughts on fluid tolerance and venous congestion. Starts around the 17min mark – sorry I have no editing capabilities! https://northwell.zoom.us/rec/play/Mn7Nt2zGzjzlnKw2Qr1UecKP-WpdGi8Mi0-uE2hn_pN97p0cOtxfrHZDGob65d3aA8yGRREm3pJmjsA6.fHrWBqxvMT7hfj23?autoplay=true&startTime=1714146104000 cheers Philippe ..read more

June 15, 2024, 10-4 EST – Online Webinar Only Due to the tremendous amount of work required to put together a large live event, we’ve decided to skip 2024 in terms of a full-fledged H&R, but HR23’s Inpatient Medicine section, put together by none else than Katie Wiskar, was a real firecracker, and we felt that the spark to bring high level bedside physiology to the clinician on the wards should not be allowed to fizzle. So, while waiting for HR25 (May 2025), Katie once again worked her magic to put together a one-day webinar that packs a academic and clinical punch. Preliminary Schedule ..read more
