Please welcome back an old friend of Baltimore, Karen G. Hirsch, MD. Dr. Hirsch is an Assistant Professor of Neurology and the Director of Neurocritical Care at the Stanford University Medical Center. She is also one of the guru’s and experts in the field of neuroprognostication after cardiac arrest leading to a multitude of publications and numerous grants. Today we are exceedingly fortunate to have her grace the halls of The University of Maryland to give us a crash course on what we SHOULD be doing for our cardiac arrest patients. I assure you, this is a lecture all of us need to hear!

Today we welcome back Samuel Tisherman, MD, Professor of Surgery and Director of the Center for Critical Care and Trauma Education and the Director of the Surgical ICU of the University of Maryland Medical Center. Dr. Tisherman recently joined UMMC directly from The University of Pittsburgh, where he was the Director of the Multidisciplinary Critical Care Training Program and program director for the Surgical Critical Care Fellowship. In his 20 years at the University of Pittsburgh he held several other titles, including Associate Director of the Safar Center for Resuscitation Research, Professor in the Departments of Critical Care Medicine and Surgery, and Director of the Neurotrauma Intensive Care Unit. Today we are fortunate to have Dr. Tisherman speak on what he know’s best: the cursed surgical abdomen. Over the next 60 minutes he navigates this unstable mine-field and leaves you with a better understanding of the thought process used before opening someone’s abdomen!

Hsu: Lung US; Reading sonographic tea leaves

Today we are fortunate to welcome Sam Hsu, MD, RDMS, Assistant Professor for the University of Maryland Medical School. Dr. Hsu is the acting Emergency Department Ultrasound Director at one of the UMMC satellite centers her in Baltimore, Mercy Medical Center.

I have attending many lectures on the topic and have even performed lung US research, but this lecture is the best presentation I have ever seen on the topic. You NEED to watch this lecture.
