Critical Care, or Intensive Care Medicine, centers around the holistic management of critically ill patients who are at risk or have developed life threatening organ failures. A fundamental aspect of medicine, it is ever so important for doctors to recognize a patient as they turn unwell.

Joining us today, is Dr Esther Tan Qiao Li, Consultant in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, in Singapore General Hospital. Wearing multiple hats, she is actively involved in the Extracorporeal Life Support Team, SGH Medical Intensive Care Unit Acute Response Team, and is current Programme Director of the SingHealth Respiratory Medicine Senior Residency Programme.

We discuss the approach to a patient who is critically ill - from the initial evaluation to resuscitative measures, and delve a little onto managing the GI system in the ICU.

Episode 26 of the Guts & Glory podcast, courtesy of the Singapore General Hospital Department of Gastroenterology & Hepatology is out, titled "a tough pill to swallow"

In this episode, we embrace the true spirit of interprofessional education, where instead of working in siloes, we come together to teach and learn from one another on how to deliver effective patient care.

My usual co-hosts, Drs Dillon Yeo & Dr Toh Ching Han take a break, and instead I am joined by our very own Gastroenterology Senior Resident, Dr Valerie Yeap. We focus on the topic of dysphagia or difficulty in swallowing, and we are joined by Dr Wong Seng Mun, Principal Speech Therapist from Singapore General Hospital.

Dysphagis is an extremely common condition in the elderly, especially in our inpatient population. We had a great discussion focusing on understanding how a speech therapist evaluates these patients, along with dissecting a speech therapist assessment report, to learning how to choose the right consistency for trial of feeding.

We've learnt so much from her and our evaluation of dysphagia from a gastrointestinal point of view is strengthened because of understanding what she does.

This truly is the beauty of interprofessional education, where mutual trust and respect brings about learning for both parties, and leads to better patient care.

Hi there! I work for Castle Biosciences (https://castlebiosciences.com). We are a company dedicated to improving health through innovative tests that guide patient care. One of those tests is TissueCypher, an AI-driven prognostic test that independently predicts esophageal cancer development in patients with Barrett's esophagus. The recent AGA Clinical Practice Update states that TissueCypher may be beneficial for risk-stratification of patients with non-dysplastic BE, so we're actively working to promote the update. Our team came across the Guts & Glory podcast and thought that would be a great platform to educate physicians and patients on the new information. Our VP of GI Marketing, Mike Hoerres, could come on the pod to chat with you about how TissueCypher can benefit BE patients.

If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, I'm happy to hear your thoughts and continue the conversation! Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Around 3.6% of Singapore's population are hepatitis B carriers, although many go about their lives unaware of this. Viral hepatitis screens, are commonly sent off for various indications - abnormal liver function tests, work up for chronic kidney disease, prior to immunosuppressive therapy  etc. Thus,  it is increasingly important for physicians to be able to interpret the serological panels, and advise their patients accordingly.
