Managing Your Doctor Self
I’m having a conversation with a colleague when our talk drifted to how are we managing our lives. “How are you managing your physician life?” I asked. I am in the middle of pivoting professional directions, easing out on one an aspect of my physician life. So, maybe I could get an insight into how they balance all these amidst their very busy practice and learn something I could apply in my own life context.
“You mean our academic, clinical and administrative life as a doctor? or all of that plus our family??!” She jokingly scoffed. The couple are surgeons, both taking masters degree, bot...

The current STEMI paradigm: Because STEMI criteria are not met, let's wait until the myocardium is dead!!
This was sent to me by an inpatient nurse who reads this blog but wants to remain anonymous.An inpatient rapid response was called for a patient with hypotension. The patient was originally admitted for pneumonia and had been transferred out of
the ICU a day prior. He had a history of HFrEF, HTN, and AML. " When I

back. " " We couldn ’t initially get a hold of the primary physician but our
hospital allows the rapid response nur...

Securing Patient Data: A Practical Guide to Compliance in Open-Source Healthcare CMS
The following is a guest article by Jon Stewart, Co-Founder and President at ZenSource
Historically, the terms “patient data,” “open-source,” and “healthcare CMS” might have seemed incongruous. Open-source has often been perceived as the Wild West. But times have changed, and open-source platforms are now making significant strides, particularly in highly regulated industries. The modern world of the open web combined with a secure cloud, smarter planning, and robust support can enable healthcare organizations to enjoy the benefits of proprietary systems with the cost and flexibility of open-source platforms.

Martin Burke: Replacing Lost Proteins to Treat Disease
As a medical student, Martin Burke, M.D., Ph.D., helped care for a young college student with cystic fibrosis (CF), an inherited disease that affects the body’s ability to make sweat and mucus. Dr. Burke had just studied CF in class, so he relayed what he had learned to her. He had a lot of information to give—doctors and researchers know the exact amino acid changes in an ion channel protein called cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) that cause CF.
