Ep 51: Metasebia Abebe

mardi 5 mars 2024 • Durée 41:41

Each surgical subspecialty has unique sets of challenges when performing their specific procedures. In plastic surgery, procedures for complex burns, hand injuries, and congenital deformities can require tissue/skin graft preparation and microscopic reapproximation. These challenges are only exacerbated when resources are limited - both in terms of personnel and materials. Meet Dr. Metasebia Abebe, the first female plastic surgeon in Ethiopia and one of only a few specialists in her country where there are more than 1 million people per plastic surgeon! Join us as we discuss the complex care involved in treating hyena bites, the effects of climate change, and international fellowships for LMIC surgeons. This is one episode to remember!

Ep 49: Zachary Enumah

jeudi 5 octobre 2023 • Durée 46:50

Leaving behind everything to escape war, persecution, or even natural disaster poses its own unique challenges. Forced relocation is difficult, creating a unique set of problems including housing, food, finances, and importantly, healthcare. Accessing these resources as a refugee is extremely difficult and uniquely convoluted. Refugee camps seek to be a safe haven for these underserved populations but pose their own unique challenges as well. With limited resources, experts like Dr Zachary Enumah are fighting to help provide essential healthcare in these settings, most recently in Tanzania. With over 500 live births per month, OBGYN services are vital to life, including c-sections and other emergency surgical services. Strategies to allocate funding, work with public health officials, and coordinate with medical boards to expand care are difficult but essential. Join us in this exciting episode with guest host Ashwin Reddy as we discuss the medical ethics behind care delivery in the camp, e-health to facilitate access, referral systems, and preventative strategies currently being deployed by Dr Enumah and his team!

Ep 48: Kiran Agarwal-Harding

mercredi 5 juillet 2023 • Durée 01:05:25

As professionals working on a global scale, even the simplest of things must be challenged. Surgeons, lawyers, administrators, and many others, must adapt to become multifaceted individuals in this space. Surgery doesn’t just start and stop with the drapes. It involves supply chain, personnel management, legislation, advocacy, and so much more. In order to tackle these issues, it requires groundbreaking research to act as journalism to paint a picture of the story on the ground - the story of what is really happening. It is this research that helps to identify problems that can then be used to advocate for funding and innovation. Indeed, to challenge the current system. Our guest today exemplifies all of these attributes - a truly multifaceted and forward-thinking global surgeon. Dr Kiran Agarwal-Harding acts as the founder and president of multiple organizations including the Harvard Global Orthopaedics Collaborative and SONA Global, two organizations tackling both research and sustainability on a worldwide scale. Join us as we discuss GPS transportation barriers, shipping of implants, and even the invention process - conception of an idea, patents, and product testing, all the way to large-scale production of life-saving devices. You won’t want to miss it!

Ep 47: Shahrzad Joharifard

vendredi 5 mai 2023 • Durée 57:52

Delivery of surgical services in low-resource settings is extremely difficult. Supply chain issues, funding, shortages of supplies, and even lack of healthcare professionals are each enormous hurdles in and of themselves. What about when civil conflict arises and a war begins? Increases in different types of injuries start to plague the already fragile system. How does one get life-saving supplies via the already scarce supply chain when roads have been taken out by bombs or blocked by military personnel? Doctors, nurses, and support staff, all risking their lives each day just to show up and provide care. Join us with guest host Ala Magzoub as we talk with Dr. Shahrzad Joharifard about her work in the Democratic Republic of the Congo during civil conflict and the unique challenges inherent to surgical delivery in this space. In this robust episode, we also learn about anti-racism and helping people to self-identify racist, sexist, or homophobic actions and comments. As a healthcare team, safe and conscientious spaces are vital to the delivery of surgical services and each of us can do our part to encourage these practices from ourselves and others.
