‘On the Case’: Comatose in the PACU? Check the Scopolamine Patch

Episode Notes

“On the Case” is back for another season of in-depth interviews with the authors of the best case reports published in Anesthesiology News. The first episode of the year features L. Jane Stewart, MD, JD, MPH, who co-wrote the review titled “Comatose in the PACU? Remove the Scopolamine Patch” (Anesthesiology News Special Edition 2021;17:81-85).

Stewart comes on the podcast to discuss the details behind the case as well as how she and her team were able to determine the right diagnosis despite the uniqueness of the case.

Stewart is a senior instructor of anesthesiology at the Denver Health Medical Center, and the director of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in the Department of Anesthesiology at the University of Colorado, Denver.

“On the Case” is an interview-driven podcast series, in which we take a behind-the-scenes look at the popular case reports that are published in Anesthesiology News. We interrogate the authors of those case reports about what it was like to experience those clinical situations and why they decided to write about them afterward.
