In this episode we share a case study of a young woman who survived a devastating car crash, thanks to Dr. Long’s use of cardiopulmonary bypass . We explore the differences between various types of burns and the extreme impacts of chemical and electrical injuries. This episode covers it all, offering a deep dive into the severity of third-degree burns and the critical role of specialized surgeons in emergency trauma care. We discuss the evolution of medical practices like burr holes for brain pressure relief. It's an engaging exploration of how experience and expertise can make the difference between life and death.
Dr. Long shares invaluable insights on the importance of mentorship and interdisciplinary learning in medicine, embodied by mentors like Joe Utley and the never-quit spirit they inspire. As we wrap up, we highlight the remarkable advancements in medical equipment and strategies that redefine patient outcomes, setting the stage for Dr. Long’s upcoming book, "Flatline to Lifeline." Tune in to discover how today’s medical heroes are transforming the seemingly impossible into lifesaving reality.
Medical Clarifications:
Nitric Oxide was given into the pulmonary artery through the Swan-Ganz catheter. Nitrous Oxide (N2O) is known as laughing gas. Nitric oxide (NO) is also a gas. Therapeutically, it can be added to inhaled other gases like Oxygen by mask or a ventilator to dilate small arteries of the lungs and decrease pulmonary hypertension. An anesthetic machine can deliver multiple gases to a patient.
To learn more about these life saving strategies and techniques, look for Dr. Long’s upcoming book, Flatline to Lifeline.
