What can practitioners do to preoperatively screen for signs that their patients may have issues with post operative delirium? How do we get patients fit for surgery, particularly as regards delirium? Can you build up mental resilience in the run up to an operation, do suggestions that puzzles and mental activity such as sudoku and a good crossword help have any evidence behind them? This piece features Monty Mythen and Desiree Chappell in conversation with Dan Cole, professor of clinical anesthesiology at the David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles and former president of the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA).
This piece starts with the question: Is there a hierarchy amongst the various elements of an enhanced recovery pathway? The conversation that follows tackles some of the essential elements of perioperative care. This conversation is taken from a longer piece to be found here: https://www.topmedtalk.com/live-from-the-iseh-part-2/ For further expert discussion regarding the Drink, Eat, Mobilise, Sleep (DrEaMS) concept there is another short piece you can find here: https://www.topmedtalk.com/standardised-outcomes-from-surgery-drink-eat-mobilise-dream/ This edition of TopMedTalk was recorded at The Institute of Sport Exercise and Health (ISEH) live from an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) leadership forum.

We begin with a question from the audience; 'how do we drive change in our institutions towards enhanced recovery after surgery?' The GIRFT (Getting It Right First Time) project is explained. The Health Foundation is also mentioned. This edition of TopMedTalk was recorded at The Institute of Sport Exercise and Health (ISEH) live from an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) leadership forum.

This piece, originally streamed live on www.topmedtalk.com features a conversation about the implementation of enhanced recovery protocols and the results practitioners report. The discussion starts with the observation that just implementing the ERAS intraoperative protocols drove outstanding outcomes in practice. The wider discussion focuses on the importance of putting into practice a bigger plan. Presented by Desiree Chappell with her guests Raul Castillo, Anesthesia Medical Director at the University of Missouri Hospital, Jennifer Clark, Staff Nurse Anesthetist at the University of Missouri Hospital Department of Anesthesiology, and Kay Smith, pain nurse coordinator University of Missouri Hospital.
What are the results if you apply Enhanced Recovery to obstetrics? This podcast features Desiree Chappell interviewing Dr Attila Kett, anaesthesiologist and Chairman at St Peter’s University Hospital at New Jersey. Join in the debate: contact@topmedtalk.com
In short; Post-Op recovery in less than 3 days with over 90% mobilised on day 1. This in depth discussion relates to the consensus paper from the Perioperative Quality Initiative, see link below. It focuses on: outcomes, length of stay and DREAMS (Drinking, Eating and Mobilising) within hours after major surgery- all key measures of compliance and success in an Enhanced Recovery Program.

Can a roundtable approach sometimes work better than the traditional hierarchical power structure? Presented by Desiree Chappell with her guests Dr Ruchir Gupta, medical lead for enhanced recovery at Stony Brook University and Joni Brady, Perianesthesia, Pain Management Nursing Consultant Alexandria, Virginia.

How do we best negotiate working in a multidisciplinary team? Generalisations regarding surgeons and anaesthetists only ever work generally, the specifics of each practitioner and their priorities inevitably contrast. How do we keep sight of these broad differences without falling foul of stereotypes? The conversation evolves; how does the surgical journey fully utilise the team based perioperative approach? With specific focus on geriatric care there is further discussion regarding shared decision making, something which has been part of that discipline for many years. The debate regarding when a patient becomes geriatric is explored. Is it age which defines that or do symptoms and comorbidities qualify the term? Recorded on the first day of the Royal College of Anaesthetists' annual conference at The British Museum. Desiree Chappell and Monty Mythen interview their guests Professor Jenifer Weller, Head of the Centre for Medical and Health Sciences Education, University of Auckland and Dr Jugdeep Dhesi, Clinical Lead, POPS and Consultant Geriatrician, Guys and St Thomas' NHS Trust.

The Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) Monitor takes 2.6 million features from a single waveform which it then applies to 150 million different wave forms looking for factors which can predict hypotension. It's the first fully approved foray into predictive analyitics for the world of anaesthesia. This conversation looks at how it works and how it is being adopted in detail. Presented by Desiree Chappell with Monty Mythen and Feras Hatib Phd, Director, Research and Development, Algorithms and Signal Processing at Edwards Lifesciences and Dr Simon Davies, Consultant Anaesthetist at York Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.
