Treating Opioid Use Disorder with Dr. Evan Schwarz
Recorded live at Michigan ACEP at Mackinac, Dr. Ryan Stanton talks with Dr. Evan Schwarz, a UCLA emergency physician, medical toxicologist, and addiction medicine specialist, about the evolving landscape of substance use disorder in the ED. Dr. Schwarz explains why opioid overdose deaths are trending down despite what emergency physicians see day to day, and how the drug supply has shifted from prescription opioids and heroin to fentanyl, kratom, xylazine, and medetomidine adulterants. The conversation covers practical buprenorphine dosing, including why higher doses are often needed and safe, how to use the COW score to assess readiness, microdosing for patients not yet ready to start, and the role of harm reduction and peer recovery coaches in getting patients into treatment. Dr. Schwarz will present this topic again at ACEP26 in Chicago.

Managing LVAD Emergencies with Dr. Marianne Wallis
In this Frontline Weekend Playlist episode, hear Dr. Marianne Wallis, Assistant Professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, present on LVAD emergencies from the Fourth Annual Leadership Symposium & EM: High Risk – Do Not Miss Conference in Beaver Creek, Colorado. Using a case-based approach, she covers how LVADs work, how to read the controller and alarms, and how to recognize and manage the most common emergencies — pump thrombus, suction events, arrhythmias, infection, and bleeding. The throughline: these patients can largely be managed like any other, with key exceptions — defibrillation and cardioversion are safe, and chest compressions are reserved for cases where the device itself is failing.

Investing in Emergency Medicine Research with Dr. Christopher Baugh
Recorded in Dallas at the Partner Collaborative, Dr. Ryan Stanton welcomes back Dr. Christopher Baugh, MD, MBA, FACEP, chair-elect of the Emergency Medicine Foundation (EMF), for a conversation on the role of specialty-specific research in emergency medicine. Dr. Baugh discusses EMF's 50-plus year history funding over 700 investigators, how the foundation's scientific review committee and volunteer board evaluate grant applications, and why supporting early-career researchers, including students and residents, is a key priority. The two also discuss how AI and large datasets are lowering barriers to high-quality research, how EMF structures industry-sponsored grants at arm's length to protect research integrity, and how the foundation is funded primarily through donations.

Joint Reduction Techniques with Dr. Gannon Sungar
In this Frontline Weekend Playlist episode, hear Dr. Gannon Sungar, DO, present "Syringes, Rocket Launchers, and Rum: Common Reduction Techniques in the Emergency Department" from the Fourth Annual Leadership Symposium & EM: High Risk – Do Not Miss Conference in Beaver Creek, Colorado. Rather than a comprehensive review, Dr. Sungar highlights a handful of practical, often-overlooked techniques for three of the ED's most common dislocations. For the mandible, he compares the syringe and extraoral techniques as gentler alternatives to the traditional intraoral approach. For the shoulder, he covers scapular manipulation as a universal adjunct along with the no-sedation Cunningham and Fares techniques, plus the shoulder-elbow method as a sedated rescue. For the hip, he walks through the Captain Morgan and rocket launcher techniques as safer alternatives to the classic Bigelow maneuver, along with the hip-foot fulcrum for tougher cases. The throughline: patience, positioning, and mechanical advantage can often beat brute force — a useful addition to any emergency physician's toolkit.
