Prolonged Field Care Podcast 168: Austere Surgery
In this podcast episode, Dennis interviews David Hardin, a general surgeon with experience in austere environments. They discuss the differences between surgeons in first world and austere environments, the importance of improvisation, training and manpower considerations, supplies and procedures in austere surgery, moving patients in austere environments, preparing for austere surgery, making decisions in austere environments, logistics and equipment, dealing with loss, preparing for unknowns, coping with emotional stress, and finding joy in austere surgery.
Takeaways
Austere surgery requires improvisation and resourcefulness due to limited supplies and equipment.
Training and teamwork are crucial in austere surgery, and having a resilient and adaptable team is important.
In austere environments, decisions must be made based on available resources and the best interest of the patient.
Preparing for austere surgery involves pre-planning, understanding the environment, and being mentally and physically prepared.
Coping with loss and emotional stress is a challenge in austere surgery, and supporting and insulating team members is important.
Finding joy in the work and being grateful for the opportunity to help others can sustain surgeons in austere environments.
