Audible Bleeding editor Wen (@WenKawaji) is joined by 5th year general surgery resident Richa Kalsi (@KalsiMD) from University of Maryland Medical Center, 4th year general surgery resident Nitin Jethmalani from New York Presbyterian Hospital-Weill Cornell, JVS (@JVascSurg) editor Dr. Forbes (@TL_Forbes) and JVS-VL (@jvsvl) editor Dr. Bush (@ruthlbush) to discuss two great articles in the JVS family of journals regarding chronic pain and resident burnout and SFJ reflux and its implication in C2 and C3 chronic venous insufficiency. This episode hosts Dr. Pillado (@drpillado), Dr. Coleman (@ColemanDM_vasc) and Dr. Lal.

Articles:

• Reported pain at work is a risk factor for vascular surgery trainee burnout by Dr. Pillado and colleagues.

• Effect of junctional reflux on the Venous Clinical Severity Score in Patients with Insufficiency of the great saphenous vein (JURY study) by Dr. Lal and colleagues.

Show Guests:

• Dr. Coleman: Professor of Surgery at Duke University and Division Chief of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery at Duke University Medical Center.

• Dr. Pillado: vascular surgery resident at Northwestern Hospital in Chicago, IL

• Dr. Lal: Professor of Surgery at the University of Maryland, Professor of neurology at Mayo clinic, and professor of biomedical engineering at George Mason University. and Director of Center for Vascular Research at University of Maryland Medical Center

In this episode Abena Appah-Sampong (@abenasamp) and Leana Dogbe (@leanadogbe) partner with Vaiva Dabravolskaite (vaivadabravolskaite@gmail.com) from ESVS to host an episode discussing social deprivation in vascular surgery. Dr. Tara Mastracci and Dr. Olamide Alabi join us to offer insights into how social deprivation drives disparities in outcomes and steps to how we can shift practice paradigms to better address our patient needs.

Dr. Tara Mastracci (@aorticsurgeon) is a vascular surgeon with over 15 years of experience treating and managing complex aortic pathologies. She is currently working at St. Bartholomew’s Hospital in London, UK, on the Cardiothoracic Team doing complex aortic surgery. On top of her clinical duties, Dr. Mastracci is dedicated to studying the social and non-clinical factors influencing vascular outcomes.

Dr. Olamide Alabi (@OAlabiMD) is an Associate Professor of Surgery in the Department of Surgery at Emory University School of Medicine. Her clinical effort focuses on the full scope of vascular disease for patients at Emory University Hospital and the Atlanta VA HealthCare System, however, her academic portfolio and funded research is focused primarily on the intersection of peripheral artery disease, quality, and health equity.
