  • 🤘🏽

    Thanks Patrick for the relevant, actionable, and interesting information shared! Your show is so pleasant to listen to, makes me laugh, and I leave each episode feeling more equipped for my first season as ALS on a ski hill. I love taking these topics to the ED for further discussion.

  • Should be part of everyone’s first aid kit

    Interesting and current information for wilderness travelers, climbers, and outdoor enthusiasts. Research-based and supplemented with practical, real-world observations, I have learned a lot to help my Ski Patrol activities and general outdoor emergency preparedness. Great stuff.

  • Great Pod For Medical Pros (and wannabe-pros)

    This is one (if of not the best) wilderness medicine-based podcasts. Love the focus on practical applications, real world scenarios, helpful hypotheticals, and a focus on matrix/evidence based decision making.

    Keep it up! Can’t wait to see where it goes.

    Especially love the new Avy series—would love further deep dives such as pressure Illness (bends, altitude, etc), heat illness, parasites, interviews with other educators/providers (the current have been great), or drownings etc.

    P.S. I’m ... more

Ep. 18 - Ketamine for Wilderness Pain Management with Dr. Christopher Van Tilburg
Q: How do you decide when to re-dose ketamine during an extraction?
In chaotic rescue situations, I often wait for the patient to indicate they are in pain rather than strictly monitoring time, due to the various tasks at hand.

Ketamine can perform many functions required in such settings and has fewer severe side effects compared to opioids, making it a more practical choice in the wilderness.
