AZEMCast is THE competitive emergency medicine podcast. The host, Dr. Aaron Leetch, moderates a panel of emergency physicians who will go head to head navigating a clinical case from the Ring Down to the Work Up to the Dispo. Panelists are awarded points for their approach to the case and their clinical application of evidence-based medicine. However, points are deducted for weak arguments or reliance on experience-based medicine. The panelist with the most point at the end of the case will win the opportunity to soapbox about whatever aspect of EM they are most passionate about. We hope this podcast will model the knowledge, skills and approach that will help you take the best care of your patients. Posts ≠ medical advice http://uanow.org/participate

episode 51: December 2019 - Sedative Agents - Part 1
Happy December, Happy 2019 and Happy 2010s!!!
I'm sure the first thing you'll do to start the new decade is to listen to our podcast, but I'd encourage you to rest, count your blessing and set some goals for your year. THEN listen.
We’ve been slowly making our way through procedural sedation in the ED this year and we’re finally to everyone’s favorite part: the drugs! With so many options and so many combinations, finding the right agent for your patient is like crafting the perfect New Year’s Eve cocktail. Everyone has their own preference: Some mix, some chase, some like it straight up. But however you like your cocktail, you need to know your elements. And you need to know how to use them responsibly. So as we close out this decade (how weird is that to say?!?!) let’s foray into the fundamentals of sedative drugs.
Have fun tonight, please drink responsibly, don’t drink and drive and have a happy New Year!
