When I was a resident, Dr. Goldfrank would ask us the same question on every patient we saw: "What is the lesion in the healthcare system that brought this patient to us today?" It was a challenge to look deeper into the root cause of emergencies

As a team leader in your ED, how do you set the tone while running a code? Your calmness is the first critical aspect of your entire team's effectiveness. Zach Drapkin sits with @EMSwami to discuss the importance of taking charge in a calm, controlled, and practiced manner.

RFK Jr’s nomination is the repudiation of a century of unprecedented and miraculous progress in public health. We take it for granted because we don’t recognize how far we’ve come. I recently wrote in @TheAtlantic about what we risk losing. Gift link 👇 https://t.co/rVXqEzE2qT

Haney and Swami tackle your questions in this Crit Bit follow-up segment from our September 2nd EM:RAP release. Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) can be challenging to diagnose and treat in the ED. The guys dive into this topic to help level up your knowledge of

As an ER Doc, I am horrified that a young woman died unnecessarily. As a State Rep, I know we can stop this by codifying abortion rights. As a father & husband, I directly blame @realDonaldTrump and his judges. I am voting @KamalaHarris and pro-choice to end this madness.

Good news stories in global health don’t get as much coverage as the failures. We should all take a moment to congratulate Rwanda for how they’ve managed this outbreak to date. This piece is a great summary of where things stand with Marburg in Rwanda 👇 https://t.co/7NkN8YU9dt

Another death due to a draconian anti-abortion law from far-right elected officials, starting with @realDonaldTrump, who don’t care about the threat to women’s health. We have been warned. We must vote to end this nightmare. Vote @KamalaHarris & pro-choice November 5.

-@realDonaldTrump appoints radical judges. -Judges overturn Roe. -Trump says, “Great, states decide.” -States sue before Trump judge to end medication abortions nationally. This is a bait & switch. Vote for @KamalaHarris & pro-choice candidates on Nov 5. https://t.co/RwB4qddxp1

What are your next steps in treating a cardiac arrest patient after achieving ROSC? Temperature control, cath lab activation, and post-ROSC hypertension control are just a few of the topics covered when ECG legend Amal Mattu (@amalmattu) joins Swami (@EMSwami) for this discussion

Today I spoke on HR 323 recognizing Civic Health Month. As a physician-legislator, I recognize that health is much more than the delivery of clinical care. My fellow health professionals have an obligation to advocate on all the issues that affect our community's health.

This podcast discusses penetrating neck injuries, anticipating anatomically challenging airways, controlling hemorrhage with a single finger and direct pressure, and more. https://t.co/0Cl0TYamaD #FOAMed #FOAMcc #airway #intubation #medicalpodcast

Post arrest patients and the cath lab. This is not the name of the coolest new post- punk bank out of Australia, it's the topic of this week's Cardiology Corner. Amal Mattu runs us through several scenarios and drops an ocean’s worth of pearls in this important discussion with

For nearly two years, Pennsylvania’s richest man has lied about my & other @PaHouseDems’ record. His goal is to defund public schools. Those who accept his contributions know this, but hide their radical views. Voters will now decide what future we want. https://t.co/ekys4LZ3gO

Every doctor who actually understands clinical medicine warned that this would happen When laws are created to restrict women's choices on reproductive health, women will die https://t.co/9MB8TltyQi

I get asked why, as a physician-legislator, do I elevate the importance of abortion rights. It is because of cases like these - women who shouldn’t have died. I wish this wasn’t political, but politics is what threatens my patients’ health. Vote Pro-Health. Vote Pro-Choice.

As an ER Doc and State Rep, I grieve for Louisiana women and health professionals. This will cost lives. .@realDonaldTrump and his judges did this by ending federal guarantees of reproductive rights. We must elect @KamalaHarris and pro-choice candidates to end this tragedy.

A 6-week abortion ban is a complete ban. Most women do not know they are pregnant at 6 weeks. .@realDonaldTrump ripped away a federal right to an abortion & now won’t protect a state right. Only voting for @KamalaHarris and pro-choice candidates can protect reproductive rights.
