Stephanie Sudikoff: The Power of Medical Simulation

Howie and Harlan are joined by Stephanie Sudikoff, an expert on using simulation to train healthcare professionals, to discuss her new venture working to expand treatment for neonatal jaundice and how simulating procedures can assist in quality control and ongoing training. They also look at new developments in AI in radiology and the economics of a powerful treatment for inflammation.  Links: AI and Radiology “Imaging AI hogs the spotlight at RSNA, with debuts from GE, Siemens, Philips” “Accuracy of ChatGPT, Google Bard, and Microsoft Bing for Simplifying Radiology Reports” “Characterizing the Clinical Adoption of Medical AI Devices through U.S. Insurance Claims” “Kim Kardashian Got a Full Body Scan, Why Medical Experts are Concerned” “Design goal: Photon Counting CT engineered with Deep Silicon technology to enable advanced CT Imaging” Heart Flow: Revolutionizing Precision Heart Care Neonatal Jaundice and Medical Simulation Little Sparrows Technologies: Big Ideas for Little Babies Stephanie Sudikoff: “Variability in quality of chest compressions provided during simulated cardiac arrest across nine pediatric institutions” “‘The Damar Effect’—the nationwide backorder on a lifesaving machine and the 620% increase in CPR” Stephanie Sudikoff: “An Approach to Confederate Training Within the Context of Simulation-Based Research” "Assessing the quality of primary healthcare in seven Chinese provinces with unannounced standardised patients: protocol of a cross-sectional survey" The Economics of Dupixent “Sanofi, Regeneron say Dupixent succeeds in another late-stage COPD study, setting up filing for FDA approval” “With new trial data, a blockbuster therapy from Sanofi, Regeneron could find an even bigger market” “A Drug for Itchy Dogs Costs $1,200.
