So good to have your company again, for our final cardiology-themed episode (for the time being at least). Today I’m thrilled to say that we’re joined by the brilliant Dr Lucy MacKillop to discuss cardiac issues in pregnancy. It’s perhaps not a topic that leaps to mind when you consider cardiology topics to revise, but it’s an area that we really do need to have a solid understanding of, as well as being a fascinating area of medicine.

Dr MacKillop is a consultant obstetric physician in the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, who trained in Oxford, London and Sydney before taking up her consultant post in 2008. She is a widely published author of academic material, book chapters and educational resources, and is the perfect person to help us gain a better grasp on the most concerning cardiac issues that women might experience in pregnancy, and how we should manage these when we see them.

We’ve loved hearing feedback from lots of you who have been tuning in to these episodes week by week. Please keep sharing the podcast with your friends, family and colleagues! And if you’d like to say hi, you can find us on Twitter @medregnews, or by dropping us an email at medregnews@gmail.com. Hope you’re enjoying life on the wards as much as ever, and we can’t wait to chat with you again same time next week!

Time to explore another complex corner of cardiology with a new expert guest to lend a hand. In this episode we’re going to be thinking about channelopathies. Which ones do you as a cardiology trainee need to be aware of? What are the causes? How do we diagnose and manage them? All will become clear, we hope, after you listen to Episode 9 of Med Reg News today.

We’re delighted to be joined by the fantastic Prof Pier Lambiase, consultant cardiologist and the Professor of Cardiology at University College London and Barts Heart Centre. Prof Lambiase breaks down this tricky topic into manageable chunks for us today, and we trust that you’ll all take as many helpful tips away from it as we did from chatting to him!

If you enjoy this episode or any of our other Med Reg News podcast material, please fire us a message and say hi! You can email us at medregnews@gmail.com, or follow us on Twitter @medregnews. We love hearing all of your comments. Hope you’re keeping well, and we’ll catch up with you again at the same time next week!

Welcome back to episode 8 of Med Reg News, and the next one in our new and exciting short series of episodes delving into the world of Cardiology. On today’s episode we’re going to be exploring adult congenital heart disease, something that around 4 out of every 1000 adults in the UK currently live with. To help us get a better grasp on this topic, we’re chatting to the wonderful Dr Natali Chung, a consultant cardiologist specialising in adult congenital heart disease at Guy’s and St Thomas’s NHS Foundation Trust in London.

If you’ve been enjoying our Med Reg News series, we’d love to hear from you! You can drop us an email at medregnews@gmail.com or find us on Twitter @medregnews. We’re always delighted to hear your feedback and any suggestions you might have for future episodes. Really hope you enjoy the episode, and we’ll be back with you again very soon!

 Brilliant to have your company again for another episode of Med Reg News! And on this episode, we're changing tack slightly and moving on to a new specialty. After six episodes focusing on gastroenterology, we're now going to be thinking about cardiology for the coming weeks. 

In this first episode of our cardiology interviews, we'll be tackling Nuclear Cardiology with the help of Dr Rebecca Schofield. It's an area of cardiology that is developing and innovating all the time, so we really hope you enjoy taking in all of the expert advice Dr Schofield has to share! 

If you're new to the podcast, please follow us on Twitter @medregnews or drop us an email at medregnews@gmail.com. And we look forward to seeing you for more of the same this time next week!

So good to have you back with us for Episode 6 of Gastro News. And we’ve got a real treat in store for you this time. If you can remember back to Episode 1, you’ll know that we’ve already dipped our toes in the world of viral hepatitis with Dr Matthew Cowan. And if you missed that one, please go back and have a listen to it! But now we’re going to take that topic one step further, and look at the cutting-edge research being done into hepatitis today.

It’s such a privilege to have an expert in this field join us today, to help us grasp more of why research into viral hepatitis is so important and so relevant for the patients we might encounter in our outpatient clinics and on our wards. Prof Sumita Verma is a hepatologist and clinical academic at Brighton and Sussex Medical School. She has a real passion for seeing better, broader research done into viral hepatitis, and she firmly believes that with active case-finding in vulnerable people groups hepatitis C can be eliminated within our lifetime.

During our chat we touch on everything from Professor Verma’s university days in India, to her thoughts on the pros and cons of the American Health system, as well as hearing her hopes for the future of hepatology. If you have any questions or comments after listening, please drop us an email at medregnews@gmail.com or find us on Twitter @medregnews. It’s been great having your company throughout this series, and we hope to see you soon!

Hello everybody, and welcome back to Gastro News! It’s Episode number 5 in our series, and today it’s a real bumper episode tackling one of the biggest and most challenging areas to get to grips with in gastroenterology – decompensated liver disease. It's an area so vast that it can sometimes feel difficult to even know where to begin, so thankfully we’ve got a brilliant guest to help us along the way.

Dr Gayatri Chakrabarty has been working as a consultant gastroenterologist in the Surrey and Sussex Healthcare Trust for the past 6 years. When she started out, hepatology wasn’t even a subspecialty, but it’s grown rapidly over the years and is a particular area of interest for Dr Chakrabarty. And today we are delighted that she has agreed to take us through all the biggest things to look out for when dealing with decompensated liver disease. 

We hope and trust that you will learn as much from this fascinating chat as we did, and if you’d like to share your thoughts with us after listening please drop us a message, either on Twitter @medregnews or via email at medregnews@gmail.com. This whole series has been hugely enjoyable for us to put together, and it’s not over yet! More to come next time, so make sure to keep an eye out for Episode 6! Look forward to seeing you very soon!

It’s that time of the week again, and we’re back with another episode of Gastro News for you! This time, on Episode 4, we’re thinking through a fairly common issue in gastroenterology, but one that it’s important we all feel prepared for and confident in managing when we come across it – upper GI bleeds.

To help us along the way we’re joined today by Dr Monira Rahman, who is a Gastroenterology Consultant at Surrey and Sussex Healthcare Trust. Some of her main interests include inflammatory bowel disease and medical education, and she has really kindly given us some of her time to explain exactly what we need to remember when faced with someone experiencing an upper GI bleed.

Have you been enjoying the series so far? If so, we’d love to hear from you! Get in touch with any questions, queries or suggestions for future episodes by finding us on Twitter @medregnews or dropping us an email at medregnews@gmail.com.

Please keep spreading the word about the podcast amongst your friends and colleagues, and we look forward to seeing you for more Gastro News very soon!

Brilliant to have you join us again for Episode 3 of Gastro News, your first port of call for everything worth knowing in the world of gastroenterology. It’s been great to hear that lots of you have been engaging with the episodes we’ve released so far, and we’ve got lots more in store for you, so don’t go anywhere!

On this episode, we’re going to be spending some time focusing on the relatively common but complex issue of high output stomas, and how best to manage patients who are experiencing issues with their stoma.

Our friendly guide for navigating this topic will be Dr Charlotte Ford, who is a Consultant Gastroenterologist at Worthing Hospital where her specialist interests include inflammatory bowel disease and clinical nutrition.

She has an interest in postgraduate medical education, in particular relating to supporting trainees during their career transitions. Later in this episode, Dr Ford will offer some advice for each of you to help you think future career plans, so make sure you stick around until the end for that. 

If you’d like to ask us any questions after you’ve had a listen, please get in touch on Twitter @medregnews or by sending us an email at medregnews@gmail.com. And we’ll catch up with you again very soon!

We’re back, and we’ve got more fantastic teaching lined up for you on Episode 2 of Gastro News! This is a series of podcasts aimed at giving all you gastroenterology trainees the best possible grounding in your specialty by speaking to a collection of extremely wise consultant voices from around the country.

Today we’re delighted to say that we’re joined by Dr Ziva Mrevlje, who is a consultant gastroenterologist and member of the Nutrition Team at Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals. And Dr Mrevlje is going to be walking us through how to go about doing an assessment of nutrition on the wards.

During our conversation, we discuss all sorts of nutrition-related topics such as re-feeding syndrome, artificial nutritional support, nutrition in people with chronic liver disease and high-output stomas and lots, lots more. So please stay tuned for all of that.

If you like what you hear, or if you have suggestions/questions for us, please give us a shout either via email at medregnews@gmail.com or by finding us on Twitter @medregnews. You, the audience, are what matter most to us, and we want to make sure we’re catering for all your gastro needs. Please keep telling everyone you work with to give the podcast a spin, and we’ll see you again next time!

Welcome to the very first episode of our brand new podcast, Med Reg News. And to be more specific, Episode 1 of Gastro News. This is the first of many podcast episodes we’ll be producing under the wider family of new podcast resources called Med Reg News. And it’s amazing to have you join us for the ride!

Within Med Reg News, we’re going to start out with a handful of mini-series of episodes focusing on gastroenterology, cardiology and geriatrics, and in due course we hope to cover other medical specialties too. So if you’re tuning in to this and you’d like us to put together episodes focused on your own area of medicine, please give us a shout! We’ll do whatever we can to help streamline your learning as you take the next step on your journey through the unique and exciting – but sometimes daunting – world of medicine.

In Episode 1, we’re discussing viral hepatitis with Dr Matthew Cowan, who is a Consultant Gastroenterologist and Hepatologist at the Surrey and Sussex Healthcare Trust. He is also the Lead Clinician for the Nutrition Service and is Honorary Consultant Hepatologist at St George’s Hospital, London where he helps run clinical trials of new treatments for viral hepatitis. 

We’re thrilled to have Dr Cowan join us for this opening episode, and would love to hear any questions or feedback you have after hearing our discussion with him. Please get in touch with us on Twitter @medregnews or via email at medregnews@gmail.com. You’re the reason we put all of this together. Really hope you enjoy it!

In S6E6 of Inside the Science, we’re highlighting the study, “Exploring indicators of extremity pain of spinal source as identified by Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT): a secondary analysis of a prospective cohort study” with Mr Ravi Rastogi. He explains the context of this follow up study from the original EXPOSS study from 2019, a closer look at the questions and physical exam findings which were gathered as potential as predictors of the source of symptoms being from the spine versus the extremities, how he interprets and uses this paper, the clinical implications and the big takeaways.

We hope to deliver this content to the committed professional who wants to improve his/her care and we hope to do it in a way that is easily accessible, the world over, in today's technological age.
