Critical Care Time

In this episode of Critical Care Time, we tackle one of the most complex and high-stakes corners of critical care: the lung transplant patient in the ICU. From evaluating candidates at the edge of respiratory failure to managing the crashing post-transplant patient, we break down the practical bedside decisions that matter most — including bridge strategies, hemodynamics, immunosuppression, infection, rejection, and the complications that can rapidly spiral if you miss them. Whether you work in a transplant center or occasionally inherit these patients in a general ICU, this episode is built to give you a sharper framework, clearer priorities, and more confidence when the stakes are highest. As is often the case, a heavy lift like this needs some back up and we are grateful to have Dr. Lara Jones, a transplant pulmonologist and her colleague, Dr. Jason Gauthier, a thoracic surgeon on to help us with this one!

On this week's episode of Critical Care Time, Cyrus & Nick go all-in on DKA and spend a little time talking about alcoholic and starvation ketosis too! In this jam-packed, clinically robust episode, the guys discuss the importance and pathophysiology of DKA before discussing all things treatment. After listening to this - and perusing the show notes - you'll be a DKA master! Check it out and let us know what you think. Special thanks to Integration Health and The Difficult Airway Course: Critical Care for supporting the production of this episode!

On this week, Cyrus & Nick are joined again by intensivist extraordinaire, Dr. Adam Mora, for a long overdue episode on ICU Toxicology! Together, the three of us embark on a case-based journey covering some of the more common ICU toxidromes as well as some of the more unusual, but can't-miss diagnoses. This is a bit of a longer one but it's super high-yield and very practical for anyone who is studying for their boards and/or participating in the care of the critically ill! Thanks to our tag-team of sponsors for this episode: The Difficult Airway Course: Critical Care and our newest sponsor, Integration Health!

We've been teasing this one for a while and now it's finally ready! This week we've released our first LIVE podcast from Chest 2025 where we cover cases in cardiogenic shock with our amazing panel of incredible clinicians. Nick & Cyrus moderate a discussion using a choose-your-own-adventure format, leveraging the expertise of our panelists in an hour long, fun-filled and practical discussion where we put some of our earlier CCT content to practice in some real world cases. Check out the YouTube channel or the website if you want to follow along with the slides. Please let us know how you like this!! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Buckle up because on this week's episode of Critical Care Time we are treated to a master class on Right Heart Failure with world-class educator Dr. Matt Siuba. We are taking a deep dive on diagnosis, management and of course, sharing our love for the PAC! Make sure you clear your schedule and take notes for this one because as far as we are concerned, this is required listening for anyone who cares for the critically ill! Hosted on Acast.
