Chung- Critical Care of the Severely Burned

Today with have the distinct pleasure to welcome a mentor of mine and a true expert in the field of critical care, Kevin K Chung, MD, FCCM, FACP, Colonel, Army. After finishing a fellowship in Critical Care Medicine at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Dr. Chung was assigned to the US Army Institute of Surgical Research (USAISR) where he has served in the capacity of Medical Director of the Burn Intensive Care Unit, Task Area Manager of Clinical Trials in Burns and Trauma, and the Director of Research for the USAISR. We are exceedingly fortunate to have him in town to speak on ICU management of Burns. Dr. Chung is the WORLD EXPERT on this topic. I recommend everyone, no matter your practice, take 60 minutes to appreciate the depth of knowledge passed along in this lecture. Burns don’t just present to burn centers!

Adhikari – Challenge and opportunities for sepsis research in resource-limited settings

Today we have the distinct pleasure to welcome Neill Adhikari, MDCM, M.Sc., one of the world’s experts on critical care management in resource limited settings. Dr Adhikari is currently practicing as an intensivist at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in the Interdepartmental Division of Critical Care at the University of Toronto. He also acts as an Associate scientist, Evaluative Clinical Sciences, Trauma, Emergency & Critical Care Research Program, at the Sunnybrook Research Institute where he focuses on critical care delivery in low-resource settings. Over his brief academic career Dr. Adhikari has been incredibly prolific in academic production, publishing over 180 peer-reviewed journal articles and accepting speaking engagements from around the globe. This afternoon we were fortunate to lure him down from Canada to speak on an exceedingly important topic: how can we address the devastation of sepsis in areas of the world where basic labs and clean water can often be a luxury and not a guarantee?

James: We count our successes in lives; the best medical results at the lowest necessary cost

This is a rare occasion, for a brief period we were able to lure Brent C. James, M.D., M.Stat. off Capital Hill long enough to allow us to record his brilliance in the form of a 90 minute lecture. Dr. James has earned too many accolades to list all in one place, briefly he joined Intermountain Healthcare in 1986 as the Director of Medical Research and Continuing Medical Education and quickly crafted Intermountain into a juggernaut of medical informatics pushing them to the pinnacles of quality health care. He just recently has stepped down as the Chief Quality Officer to focus more on the teaching aspects of his career as he continues to lead the Intermountain Advanced Training Program.
