TheCase.Report - An Irish Emergency Medicine Podcast

Show Notes

Leah sat down with Professor Seamus Morris, Consultant Orthopaedic and Spinal Trauma surgeon at the National Spinal Injuries Unit as a follow up to our case. They go through all things cervical spinal collars, MRIs, ASIA scores and discuss the development of the trauma system for Ireland.

Prof Morris is a specialist in spinal trauma surgery and after finishing his orthopaedic specialty training in RCSI, travelled to London and New York for fellowships. He is course director on a number of widely accredited trauma training courses including the European Trauma Course and is Clinical Professor of Surgery in UCD.

Don't miss this as Leah put's the controversies to Prof Morris and gets some well needed answers.

Welcome back to another episode of The Case.Report! This month we’re shaking things up a little as NCHDs Callum and Johnny work hard stabilising not just one patient, but an entire planetary ecosystem. Planet Earth has come to TCR resus in a critical condition and there’s no time to waste. With toxic levels of air pollution, rising global temperatures, escalating extreme weather events, threats to global food and water security, and a rapidly closing window to act - this is a health emergency beyond any doubt. Our adult in the room this month is the outstanding Professor Hugh Montgomery - Professor of Intensive Care Medicine at University College London, Consultant in Cardiology and General Internal Medicine, Co-chair of The Lancet Countdown on Health and Climate Change.
