Addiction in doctors
Everyone has coping mechanisms, but sometimes those ways of coping become problem behaviours - addictions.
In this episode of Doctor Informed, we're focussing on how to spot the signs that you may be sliding into addiction, how to have conversations with friends and colleagues if you worry about their behaviour, and how seeking treatment is the best way to avoid GMC scrutiny.
Joining Clara Munro are Liz Croton and Zaid Al-Najjar, GPs who work for NHS Practitioner health - a mental health and addiction service specifically for health professionals. They are also joined by Ruth Mayall, a retired consultant anaesthetist who...

Nappuccinos and circadian rhythms
Fatigue can have as much of an affect in your ability to function as alcohol, and yet while you would be chastised for drinking before appearing on the ward, hospitals have systematically removed the spaces where tired clinicians can rest and recover.
The Royal College of Anaesthetists have been campaigning to raise awareness of the dangers of fatigue, and it seems that anaesthetic trainees have benefitted from that, with sleep pods and flexible schedules - but other specialties are lagging behind.
In this podcast, Roo McCrossan, a consultant anaesthetist joins our host Clara Munro, a surgical trainee, and Ayesha Ashmore...

Do video-assisted instruments for inserting breathing tubes in adults work better than direct-view instruments and do they cause unwanted effects?
Anaesthetists use a variety of techniques to insert a breathing tube into a patient before an operation. These include using a rigid indirect videolaryngoscope and the Cochrane review comparing this with the traditional direct laryngoscope was updated in April 2022. In this podcast, two of the authors, Jan Hansel and Andy Rogers, who are from Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust and Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Trust in the UK, chatted about the procedures.
