Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep 16: Stroke a Cord
Did you misread that title? Maybe you did and maybe you didn't. Emergency medicine requires our professionals to work from limited information and rely on instincts and assessment to diagnose and treat a patient. This usually leads our team down the right path, but sometimes leads them astray and takes them down the wrong clinical pathway for a patient. This episode takes the listener through these biases and discusses how to combat them, as we are joined by flight nurse, and host of The Q Word Podcast, Nyssa Hattaway.

Ripping up the rule book on addiction and spinal cord injury recovery with Sean Bailey
What is spinal stenosis?
For many of us, advancing age brings on more than just grey hair and wrinkles. It also surfaces degenerative changes to the spine. It’s not always the aging process. More likely, it’s the cumulative effect of years of neglect.
Spinal stenosis is one such condition. This is a narrowing of the canal housing the spinal cord. In the neck it’s called cervical stenosis. In the lower back lumbar stenosis.
It’s rarely diagnosed before the age of 60.
In this episode we explain what spinal stenosis is, what symptoms are associated with it and how exercises, adjustments and traction can help.
