CHART Healthcare Academy’s Post

A couple of years ago, just for the kicks we published a video on difficult IV access on NYSORA’s YouTube channel. I remember it like it was today: We actually hesitated to release the video because our channel was at the time watched mostly by anesthesiologists. Therefore - why "How TO IV" access on NYSORA's channelYT , when we anesthesiologists are uniquely trained to be the best at IVs? Besides, in an era of ultrasound, who needs traditional techniques to an IV, right? Wrong! With our surprise, we watched the Difficult IV videos hit nearly 2 million views. We then released another one, then and another one... Watching the views of IV techniques videos soar, we looked up what was available for education on the topic of IV, and we realized that nearly all books on IV access are mostly theoretical. And therefore, in response to our viewer’s quest for better learning tool on difficult IV access, NYSORA Press just published a hands-on manual packed with real-world advice that textbooks just don't offer. The manual features over 400 real-life clinical pictures and step-by-step instructions. Plus, we added videos of IV techniques in difficult patients accessible with a quick QR code scan that comes with the Manual. The videos feature a range of little known tricks I learned during the AIDS pandemic in patients in whom IV access was nearly impossible, such as reverse Esmarch, double tourniquet, triple tourniquet, bending IV catheters, and more.   While ultrasound guidance has been immensely helpful in securing an IV in patients with difficult IVs, nothing beats quick traditional IV access with a pair of experienced hands equipped with tips and tricks featured by pros. I believe that everyone should see what we created and have one at their clinic for generations to come. https://lnkd.in/efcYY9Qy Greetings!

So close, yet so far! 👏🏼🤣 How are we all doing with our CECs?  #ACSMCEP #CEP #exercisephysiology #clinicalexercisephysiology #exercisephysiologist #clinicalexercisephysiologist #CEPA #ACSMCEPA

#Answers 1. Pacing from the atrium at 400ms with an extra stimulus at 240ms. S1 conducts from the atrium through the His to the ventricle in a normal fashion (normal AH and HV intervals). 2. S2 blocks antegrade in the fast pathway (the short AH) and conducts down the slow pathway (the long AH) and back up the fast pathway. This cycle continuously repeats itself down the slow and up the fast resulting in an AVNRT.

🌟 Exciting News! 🌟 I am thrilled to share that I have recently completed a certification course on "Functional Electrical Stimulation during Task-Specific Training for Upper Extremity Stroke Rehab." 🎓🧠 This advanced training has equipped me with the latest knowledge and techniques to enhance rehabilitation outcomes for individuals recovering from stroke. By integrating functional electrical stimulation (FES) with task-specific training, we can promote neuroplasticity and improve motor function in the upper extremities more effectively. Here are some key takeaways from the course: -Understanding FES: How to use electrical stimulation to activate muscles and facilitate functional movements. -Task-Specific Training: Combining FES with meaningful activities to maximize rehabilitation outcomes. -Neuroplasticity Principles: Leveraging the brain's ability to reorganize and form new neural connections through targeted interventions. -Customized Rehabilitation Plans: Developing personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient's unique needs and goals. I am excited to apply these advanced techniques in my practice and help my patients achieve greater independence and improved quality of life. #StrokeRehab #FunctionalElectricalStimulation #TaskSpecificTraining #Neuroplasticity #UpperExtremityRehab #OccupationalTherapy #ContinuingEducation #HealthcareInnovation

Compression of the ulnar nerve in Guyon canal can often be confused with compression of the ulnar nerve at the cubital tunnel. A major distinguishing factor is the sensation over the dorsal ulnar aspect of the hand. The dorsal ulnar cutaneous nerve provides sensation to this region and branches off 8 cm. proximal to Guyon canal so it would be preserved if the ulnar nerve was being compressed at Guyon canal or at zone 1. The zones of Guyon canal can help localize the level of a low ulnar nerve injury. 👉Foundational knowledge is critical to developing effective critical thinking skills which is why it’s threaded throughout the Virtual Hand to Shoulder Fellowship, LLC curriculum. As we advance to discuss increasingly complex pathologies, we are always circling back to foundational knowledge, reinforcing knowledge and connecting dots. This is important in cultivating effective critical thinking skills and also in enabling clinicians to become autonomous in continuing their own professional development. Our next virtual hand therapy fellowship cohort begins this September. #handtherapy #handtherapists #certifiedhandtherapist #chtexam #guyoncanal #ulnarnerve #ulnarnervetransposition #virtualhandfellowship

I've heard it all from those holding me back. Who holds you back? Will you let them? Let's be great together! A family member that said I'll never be more than a food service employee. A mentor that told me to "leave research to the PhDs." Colleagues that said I'd never embed PT in family practice, or the emergency department, or order imaging, labs, direct access, more. A peek into my soul, the song "Droppin' Plates" by Disturbed defines me like no other. "You said it couldn't be done Told me it's the kind of battle that just couldn't be won... You'll never make it, not in this lifetime" "Well guess again, my friend. We're going to fight the war and use my [research] as the weapon!" The band was "droppin' plates" or albums on their doubters. And each primary care clinic I open, each article that advances PT, each clinician I inspire to be great... I'm droppin plates on all those haters too. "You'll never" is my rocket fuel. PTs are doctorally-trained neuromuscular experts. We are unparalleled in our knowledge and application of conservative management. No one can do what we do. Never doubt it. #physiotherapy #physicaltherapy #DPT #APTA #AAOMPT

#Answers Read the whole post because EP calls for details! #CEPS #CriticalThinkingSkills EP Case Study 9 1. On the surface ECGs, it appears as though there is no P wave before the QRS. In fact, in Lead Il and aVF, you can see the P wave immediately after the QRS. The intracardiac signals show the same phenomenon. The A and V are nearly simultaneous. The A may be slightly later than the V. 2. AVNRT with dual AV node physiology is probable. This reentry circuit is so small that the atrial and ventricular depolarization extend simultaneously from the AV node. 3. To rule out an accessory connection, an extra stimulus was delivered in the RVA while the His was refractory. If there was an accessory pathway, this pacing stimulus should conduct to the atrium by way of the accessory pathway (AP). If there is no AP, the stimulus will not advance to the atrium since it can not conduct through the now refractory AV node. If you measure the A to A cycle length, you will see that it does not change (or advance) post the premature paced beat.
