Summary

In this EM Cases main episode podcast, a follow up to our episode on TIA released in November 2018 with Walter Himmel and David Dushenski, we’ll try to simplify the confusing time-based and brain tissue-based options for stroke management. We’ll answer the questions that have been plaguing us for a while now: Which patients are eligible for endovascular therapies? Which patients are the ones who’ll benefit from these therapies and how do we make that happen in our different practice environments? Which patients should be considered for lytic therapy? Which patients should be considered for both lytic and endovascular therapy? and many more...

0:00.0	Anton Helman here for the Emergency Medicine Cases podcast.
0:03.4	If you haven't heard already, we've just launched a brand new podcast format on emergency
0:08.5	medicine cases called EM Quick Hits.
0:11.9	It's sort of at the other end of the spectrum from the main EM cases episodes.
0:17.8	So rather than delve into deep discussions on broadish topics like we do in the main episodes for an hour or two,
0:25.5	EM Quick Hits is about 30 minutes total and contains five minutes segments chosen from about 10 specific topics by 10 different experts and educators, hence the name Quick Hits.
0:39.6	And the topics are ones that either aren't taught very well in training and or that physicians
0:46.2	tend not to be so comfortable with. So toxicology, trauma, ophthalmology, orthopedics,
0:57.1	resuscitation, human factors, addiction, and pediatric emergencies to start off with. And the lineup of regular experts and educators
1:02.6	is freaking amazing. We've got Emily Austin, Peter Brinley, Chris Hicks, Michelle Clayman, Anna McDonald, Natalie May, Justin Morgan Stern, Andrew Petrosoniac, Hans Rosenberg, Aaron Ciel, and Anon Suami Nathan to make up the EM Quick Hits team.
1:21.2	We'll also be featuring guest experts every now and again like David Yerling, who's going to give us some quick hits on common drug interactions. So wherever you get your podcast, check out on the Emergency Medicine Cases feed,
1:32.3	the new EM Quick Hits podcast. And due to popular demand and a super fast sellout of the
1:40.5	EM cases course in February 2019, we've added a second EM cases course for 2019 on June 24th.
1:49.8	So save that date. And talking about courses, registration for the Emergency Medicine Update
1:55.2	Conference in May is open now. It's Canada's biggest independent EM conference and will have all the usual
2:01.7	suspects of speakers, basically the best EM speakers in North America. And the EM cases
2:07.2	quiz vault I'm really excited about. It'll be released any day now, the final frontier of the
2:12.7	EM cases learning system, the icing on the cake to solidify everything you've learned on EM cases and more,
2:19.2	all for free on the EM cases website. The QuizVolt is about a thousand questions big so far,
2:25.9	and will be closer to probably 2000 by the end of 2019. We hired this amazing team of web designers
2:32.9	to make it as user-friendly as possible,
2:35.0	and we'd love your feedback once we get it launched.
