Vascular Medicine Series: Vascular Wound Treatments
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D.
Guest: Matthew (Mark) Melin, M.D.
Vascular wounds can be quite challenging. If untreated, they can lead to infection, even sepsis, hospitalization and occasionally, amputation. Effective treatment requires an accurate diagnosis and recognition of the specific type of vascular wound you’re dealing with. Even when the type of wound is correctly identified and is being treated appropriately, healing can be slow. What diagnostic tools are available to help us? How does a venous insufficiency ulcer differ from an arterial ulcer? What’s the best treatment for these wounds and when should we refer our patient to a vascular specialist? The topic for this podcast is “Vascular Wound Treatments” and these are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Matthew (Mark) Melin, M.D., a vascular specialist from the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at the Mayo Clinic.

Claiming Your Voice and Why Women in Medicine Need a Clear Professional Narrative
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D.
Guest: Neha P. Raukar, M.D., M.S.
Women in medicine have made significant strides over the past few decades, yet some still face a variety of challenges and barriers. They commonly encounter inequalities that can affect their professional growth and overall well-being. Common issues include pay disparity, underrepresentation in leadership positions and gender discrimination, just to name a few. Some medical specialties tend to be male-dominated and can be less welcoming to women. As a result, women physicians have higher rates of professional burnout and often experience a less satisfying career. My guest for this podcast is Neha P. Raukar, M.D., M.S., an emergency medicine physician at the Mayo Clinic. The topic we’ll be discussing is “Claiming Your Voice and Why Women in Medicine Need a Clear Professional Narrative”.

Vascular Medicine Series: Vascular Malformations
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D.
Guests: Haraldur Bjarnason, M.D.; and Megha M. Tollefson, M.D.
Vascular malformations are anomalies of vessels that can cause a variety of potentially serious health problems depending on their type, location, and size. They may involve arterial, venous or lymphatic vessels. They’re often progressive and may enlarge over time. They’re best diagnosed with one or more imaging studies and the treatment depends on the type of vascular malformation. Management usually requires a multi-disciplinary approach in order to be most effective. What are the most common types of vascular malformations? What organs are typically involved? What are some of the more serious medical complications they may cause and how should we manage them? The topic for this podcast is “Vascular Malformations” and these are questions I’ll be asking my guests, Haraldur Bjarnason, M.D., an interventional and vascular radiologist and Megha M. Tollefson, M.D., a dermatologist, both from the Mayo Clinic.

Vascular Medicine Series: Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D.
Guests: Sam Farres, M.D.; and Ryan A. Meverden, PA-C
Thoracic outlet syndromes is a great masquerader and often mistaken for a variety of other health conditions including cervical radiculopathy, carpal tunnel syndrome, rotator cuff injury or even multiple sclerosis. It has several causes which account for the variety of its clinical presentations. Because of this, the diagnosis is commonly delayed or diagnosed incorrectly. Yet, it’s crucial to establish an early and accurate diagnosis as this can prevent potential progression of neurologic damage or in some cases life-threatening vascular complications. It also prevents unnecessary treatments and inappropriate interventions. The topic for this podcast is “Thoracic Outlet Syndrome” and my guests include Ryan Meverden, PA-C, a physician assistant in the Vascular Center at the Rochester campus of the Mayo Clinic and Sam Farres, M.D., Division Chair of Vascular Surgery at the Florida campus of the Mayo Clinic. As we discuss thoracic outlet syndrome, we’ll review the variety of presenting symptoms, potential complications, appropriate tests to evaluate patients and effective management strategies.
