How to think about... summary statistics ("short" version)

mardi 15 aoÃģt 2023 â€ĸ Duration 05:28

For those who can't even spare 8 minutes, this podcast clocks in just north of 5. How can we explain what the different summary statistics actually mean?

How to think about... summary statistics ("long" version)

mardi 15 aoÃģt 2023 â€ĸ Duration 09:28

Coming in at nearly 10 minutes, this is the long version of the summary statistics podcast. What are they, why do we like certain ones over others, and how do they behave?

What's The Point Of... Medical Gases?

lundi 27 mars 2023 â€ĸ Duration 10:12

Medical gases are medicines, but often relatively neglected by pharmacy - so it's time for a review of what they are and why we should care about them, all provided by our guest expert, Lucy. There's so much stuff we've been slightly flexible (but not that flexible - we are still pharmacy) and given her 10 minutes instead of the normal 8. Loads of content with this one - the only thing you'll not find out is why gases only has 1 "s" in the middle, when all the laws of English would suggest it should have 2. Give it a listen - what have you got to lose?

Pholcodine, case control studies and odds ratios

lundi 20 mars 2023 â€ĸ Duration 09:18

Never one to miss a bandwagon, with the recent announcement of the withdrawal of pholcodine it seemed an ideal opportunity to look at the study that provided the data to prompt the review. How does pholcodine make you more likely to have an allergic reaction to neuromuscular blocking agents? How do we know? And whilst we answer these questions, we'll also talk about case control studies and odds ratios too. There's not much more fun you can pack into an 8-ish minute podcast!

Imlifidase and commercially confidential information

lundi 13 mars 2023 â€ĸ Duration 08:04

This week, we're having a look at the fancy new imlifidase, which is used around renal transplant and costs a small fortune (though may be worth it - in the grand scheme of transplants and dialysis, most drugs costs pale into insignificance). What does it do, what do NICE think, and can we play along and see whether we'd get to the same conclusions as NICE - or does commercial confidentiality get in the way and ruin all our fun? Only 8 minutes to find out!

How to think about... liver function

lundi 6 mars 2023 â€ĸ Duration 08:42

One of the most common questions we get asked about medicines where there isn't a straight forward answer is how to work out whether a medicine is harming someone's liver, or whether someone's liver is affecting a medicine. For kidneys we have eGFR and CrCl. For liver we have LFTs. But why is it not that simple, and how can we start thinking about these sorts of questions to try to make it a bit simpler? This isn't a podcast about what a specific LFT means at specific levels (because - spoiler alert - LFTs don't work like that) but does try to give an overview of what sorts of things to think about and what common pitfalls might be.

What's The Point Of... Pharmacy Clinical Trials Services?

mardi 28 fÊvrier 2023 â€ĸ Duration 08:06

A quick 8 minute tour of pharmacy-specific bits of clinical trials and what the point of them is. What do pharmacy clinical trials teams actually do, and why?

How to think about... half lives

lundi 20 fÊvrier 2023 â€ĸ Duration 08:48

In pharmacy, we often bang on about half lives, but what are they actually useful for, and what are the limitations of the values we're given in SPCs? This podcast aims to be a whistle stop tour of half lives, covering some of the interesting things about them and when they might lead us astray (and hardly any maths at all, in case you were worried).
