CHANGE to Marco Grand Rounds for December 20, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

There has been a change in topics for Sunday's discussion.  The planned talk on "CHAGAS DISEASE" is being postponed to the first Sunday in January...instead, this Sunday we will discuss a group of problems you have probably never heard of.........diseases of the Autonomic (automatic) Nervous System...the nervous system we have little or no control of such as digestion etc.  In the past we have tagged these patients as "dead beats" and "crocks" with anxiety etc..and turned them over to the NP boys.  This new emerging field is pregnant and about to be delivered---so tune in and learn all about DYSAUTONOMIA--the newest recently discovered disease  on the block.

MARCO Grand Rounds for December 20, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday, by request,  we will discuss "CHAGA'S DISEASE."  With the large influx of immigrants to the U.S. from Central and South America this disease is now becoming a problem in the U.S. since most people who have the disease are unaware of it.  Tune in, you don't want to miss this one wither in the office or on the air.

MARCO Grand Rounds for December 13, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will continue the discussion on TELEMEDICINE.  We  all use it consciously or unconsciously and it is becoming a major factor in the practice of medicine....tune in should be fun.

MARCO Grand Rounds for December 6, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS AN UPCOMING “TELEHEALTH” SERVICE which will change the way we practice!!!!  From the simple telephone Rx to “Virtual Care Centers” things are moving—Let’s not chase it, let’s catch it….
Tune in and bring your talents to the mike.

AND, just to make one feel better…remember when the doctor used to be the family friend, and didn’t need insurance or a lawyer to defend…the way that he took care of you or what he had to do, because he took an oath and strived to do the best for you!  let’s strive to keep it that way!

MARCO Grand Rounds for November 1, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL  DISCUSS "GASTROINTESTINAL QUACKERY" basically "Do I need a BM every day doctor?  Am I absorbing toxins if I don't? HOW OFTEN HAVE YOU HEARD THESE QUESTIONS.....BURP!  YES, we are moving into the bathroom Sunday, join in with your stories and bring your "Refresh!"  Should be fun.....

MARCO Grand Rounds for October 25, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will discuss "INFLUENZA" since it is once again "flu season."  Keep in mind the epidemic of 1918 when you think this is a minor ailment.  Tune in, wear your masks and add your experience.

CME Credit and Grand Rounds for October 18, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

   This Sunday will be SPECIAL....Dr Wayne Rosenfield K1WDR will share the mike with me as he discusses GAUCHER DISEASE.  Never seen a case?  Don't feel badly as I haven't either!  BUT, it's out there.......waiting to be discovered.  Brush away the cobwebs from pathology and join us.  Wayne is an excellent speaker--I met him in Myrtle Beach and he put me on to the book we feature on Page 11 of Aether. "Simple Courage" the story of a HAM captain aboard a sinking merchant ship.

     I talked to "Lee" (female) at my hospital and she said one MARCO member from Ft. Lauderdale had taken the test ("Deep Brain Stimulation) on www.mpmcme.org (David DOV ?).  The affiliation with Morton Plant Hospital, Clearwater, FL is being waived for MARCO through my affiliation....an excellent way to get CME Category 1 credit and request copies of your attendance which they keep on file.  I get a lot of my information for Grand Rounds from these great lectures as well as keep up my CME for licensure.  Hope you are on board Sunday, should be FUN.

MARCO Grand Rounds for Sunday, October 4, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS A TANTALIZING SUBJECT, “Blood tests for early cancer detection.”  We all know we can pick up leukemia with a cbc and the old CEA presumptive test for colon ca.  But what about the NEW tests that can pick up cancer fragments from the blood called “tumor marker cells” fragments of broken cancer cells circulating in the blood stream.  Tune in and lubricate your brains.

MARCO Grand Rounds for September 27, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS THE “Dangers of mixing Grape Fruit with oral medication.”  Notice, hospitals around the US are no longer serving grape fruit for breakfast?  We previously discussed this in 2007—since then adverse effects have arisen in not 17 drugs but now TO 43 drugs commonly used.  Don’t miss this one.

MARCO Grand Rounds for September 20, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY, BY DEMAND, WE WILL DISCUSS BPH (BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERTROPHY).  If you are a male over 50 you should be listening to tell us your symptoms (if not, visualize a balloon you are BLOWING UP!)  Tune in and share your problem…nugget:  riding a  bike will raise your PSA.

MARCO Grand Rounds for September 13, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will discuss “THE DISEASE OF THE WEEK,” namely “Ashley Madison.”   Ashley Madison is an on-line dating service with a motto “Life is short, Have an affair.”  There are 30 million members and the site has been hacked! (lipstick on the collar bit).  It sounds like a strange topic but it is the  disease of the weak this week

MARCO Grand Rounds for September 6, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS “ATRIAL FIBRILLATION,” AN IRREGULAR REGULARITY ABNORMAL HEART RTHYM THAT AFFECTS 3% OF THE POPULATION.  What are you going to answer when an a-fib patient asks you, “Doctor, can I eat chocolate?”  Tune in should be fun.

MARCO Grand Rounds for August 30, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS COMING SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS BY REQUEST “BENIGN PAROXYSMAL POSITIONAL VERTIGO.”   IF YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY STAGED THE “EPLEY OR SEMONT MANEUVER” BE ON BOARD AS THERE ARE A LOT OF DISBELIEVERS.  (to get in the mood squirt some ice water in the right ear just before the program.)

MARCO Grand Rounds for August 23, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS “Common Hand Problems“  This includes Diabetic Stiff Hand Syndrome, Diabetic neuropathy, Dupeytren’s Contracture, Ganglions, hand eczema (contact derm), Carpal Tunnel, nerve entrapment syndromes.   deQuervain’s, trigger fingers, osteo, YOU NAME IT.  We might throw in tarsal tunnel if you behave!  Tune in should be fun. 

MARCO Grand Rounds for August 16, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUS “LYMPHOMA.”  Did you realize that some of the most virulent types respond best to treatment?  Lymphomas may be curable if treated early.  Lymphoma is relatively common in those exposed to radiation like physicians, so better tune in and help educate all of us.

MARCO Grand Rounds for August 9, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY, BY REQUEST, WE WILL DISCUSS “MALARIA” AND THE NEW ANTI-MALARIAL VACCINE WITH A 30% SUCCESS RATE, which doesn’t seem like much, but should cut down deaths from 500,000/year to 350,000 and remember, “Avoidable is what a bull fighter tries to do!”

MARCO Grand Rounds for August 2, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS “Adult Vaccination.”  by demand….You will say, “Oh, we know all that!”  Perhaps, a reminder may save someone’s life however.  So bear with  us and take into effect how lucky we are in 2015 to have these vaccinations available—but onllyifweutiizethem.  And remember, music is not allowed on the HAM bands—not even singing “Happy Birthday?” (exception—to other hams, most appreciated and a first!) 

MARCO Grand Rounds for July 26, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS “LYME DISEASE.”  While I was in Washington D.C. watching 8-year olds play flag football, I noticed all the mothers checking their children—and finding ticks on them.  THIS IS TICK SEASON.  We have lots of ticks in Florida and 300,000 cases of Lyme in the US each year.   TIME TO TALK ABOUT IT….tune in, should be educational.

MARCO Grand Rounds for July 19, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday I will be in Washington DC tormenting my grandkids…thus we will have a VOX POX “voice of the people” net where everyone throws things at each other. If you have a subject please submit.

MARCO Grand Rounds for July 12, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL HAVE A WINNER!  WE WILL DISCUSS “THE MECHANICAL HEART.”    THIS HAS BEEN BOUNCING AROUND FOR A LONG TIME—REMEMBER THE JARVIK 7 IN 1982?  WHAT ABOUT 2015?  WHAT’S THE STATUS TODAY?  TUNE IN AND FIND OUT.

MARCO Grand Rounds On Hold for June 28, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

NO NET this Sunday due to FIELD DAY.  Next Sunday we will discuss “Hepatitis C” and the new “cures.”

NOW, man your stations and make this the best Field Day ever.

MARCO Grand Rounds for June 21, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday  we will discuss “AMEBIASIS.” A subject which we have ignored which is out there trying to grab you. Art KK1Y, our thoracic surgeon, brought the subject up as a case he never expected.

MARCO Grand Rounds for June 15, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL TALK ABOUT SAFE DRIVING…should we give way to self-driving cars or continue to unknowingly allow the boozers to prevail in helping to knock-off over 33,000 Americans each year?  If you’re mobile be careful!

MARCO Grand Rounds for May 31, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will talk about “MODERN DEVELOPMENTS IN REJUVINATION,”   This will be the last discussion of current man’s attempt to slow aging, remembering that life extension is different from “rejuvenation.”  For example, “cell losses can be repaired (reversed) just by suitable exercise in the case of muscle.  For other tissues it needs various growth factors to stimulate cell division along with stem cells.

MARCO Grand Rounds for May 24, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS "PERSONALIZED MEDICINE."  Everyone has a unique variation of the human genome...one way that biological variation among people makes itself clear , is responsiveness to drugs. For example, ADHD medicine only works for 1 of 10 prescribers, cancer drugs are effective for 25% and depressive drugs work with 60%.  With DNA and RNA studies we can now tell WHO will respond to what.  That is the sneaky preview--tune in and ---------------------LISTEN!

MARCO Grand Rounds for May 17, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILLBE SHORT-CHANGED BECAUSE SO MANY WILL BE IN  DAYTON SO WILL TALK ABOUT "THE CUTING EDGE."  NEW THINGS ON THE HORIZON--SUCH AS A MEDICINE FOR PREVENTING AGING RATHER THAN A MEDICINE TO TREAT AGING--YOU SIMPLY PICK AN AGE AND STAY THERE, TO ADVANCE YOU SIMPLY STOP THE MEDICINE.

THE JUNE AETHER SHOULD BE ON "LIST SERVE" IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT LET ME KNOW...

MARCO Grand Rounds for May 10, 2015

From Warren, KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS "DEMENTIA."  TODAY A LECTURE WAS GIVEN BY AMANDA SMITH, MD ENTITLED "Prevention & Diagnosis of Memory Loss."  Notice there was "no treatment" in the title.  WHY?  Because there has been no NEW Rx for this condition in the past 10 years--BUT, there has been progress in diagnosing it EARLY and thus helping to prevent progression.

That will be the main point--YES, there are things to prevent onset too early for if we get to age 85, 50% of us will be demented AND in today's paper it mentioned that the children born today have a 10% change of living beyond 100---think of the problems ahead UNLESS research comes through!

MARCO Grand Rounds for May 3, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will have a discussion on "Marijuana, Medicine & Addiction ."  This will feature the feelings of  Dr. Stewart Gitlow, retiring president of the American Society of Addiction Medicine."   Basically, we will present Dr. Gitlow's opinion and then you will have the opportunity to express yours.  In a recent election, Florida voters failed to reach the 60% approval vote to legalize medical marijuana--it was close as 58% voted in favor....there is some recent data coming out that will be featured in a lecture at our hospital in three weeks, this can be a building block on the subject.

MARCO Grand Rounds for April 26, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS "HISTOPLASMOSIS," AND IF TIME, COCCIDIOIDOMYCOSIS AND BLASTOMYCOSIS.  THESE DISEASES ARE OUT THERE--RATHER RARE BUT STILL LOOKING FOR A SHARP DOCTOR TO FIND.  

MARCO Grand Rounds for April 19, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS, BY  DEMAND, "NORMAL PRESSURE HYDROCEPHALUS."  This is a rather common condition in older adults that is often missed--we willtrysomethingnewthistime--everyone bring a joke or interesting subject as you check in and we will award the winner with ?  If it flops we will discontinue it, worth a shot!

MARCO Grand Rounds for April 12, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL CONTINUE "THE CUTTING EDGE."  THIS WILL INCLUDE THE STATUS OF AUTOPSIES;  HOW NOISE SUCH AS WHAT COMES FROM YOUR I-PHONE EFFECTS YOUR HEARING AND HOW INSOMNIA.E CAN UPSET YOUR RELATIONSHIPS .

MARCO Grand Rounds for April 5, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

 Easter Sunday, we will discuss "The Cutting Edge."  Articles that are changing medical care.  #1 will be "ADVANCED RECOVERY PROTOCOL," which is being implemented at the large medical centers, and if time permits, "MED SCHOOLS AREN'T THE SAME ANYMORE," the changes being implemented at many of the 144 medical schools. 

Minutes of MARCO's Annual Meeting, March 20, 2015

MARCO Annual Membership Meeting

March 20, 2015

The annual Membership Meeting of the Medical Amateur Radio Council was held on March 20, 2015 at the Western Museum of Flight in Torrance, California.

Present were Malin Dollinger (KO6MD), Arthur Kahn (W6NJY), Jay Garlitz (AA4FL), Bernard Krasowski (KD5QHV), Linda Krasowski (KE5BQK), T. "Chip" Keister (N5RTF), Bruce Small (KM2L), Joe Breault (WB2MXJ), Paul Lukas (N6DMV), President Jeffrey Wolf (K6JW), Newsletter Editor Warren Brown (KD4GUA), and MediShare Director Arnold Kalan (WB6OJB).

The meeting was called to order at 9:05 AM, PDT.

Those in attendance introduced themselves.

In the absence of the Secretary, the minutes of the last meeting were read by N5RTF and approved.

The Secretary's report was presented by Jeff due to the absence of Secretary Marcia Lochner. The report included three donations to MediShare. There are 221 members of MARCO, including 20 with complementary membership. We have 124 paid up members. The President does not have the names of those who are in arrears. The Secretary has reserved a block of rooms for MARCO during Hamvention at the Clarion in Dayton.

The Treasurer's report was presented by Jeff due to the absence of Treasurer Mary Favaro (AE4BX). Due to Mary's efforts, MARCO's funds were transferred from the account formerly managed by the late WA1HGE to a Wells Fargo Bank near Mary's home. MARCO's principal officers are all now signatories. MARCO's General Fund balance as of March 6, 2015 was $11,600.73. The Medishare account balance as of March 6, 2015 was $6074.18. AA4FL clarified that the disbursement to him listed as “expedition” was, in fact, reimbursement of the fees for hosting our web domains. WB6OJB indicated that his figure ($775: see below)) for member contributions did not agree with the amount reported. It was not clear what fiscal year was used in the Treasurer's calculation.

The status of the Secretary was discussed. Our by-laws specify that officers must be regular members of MARCO. Marcia, the current Acting Secretary, is not a licensed amateur radio operator, and thus is not eligible. She was informally appointed Assistant Secretary last year and has filled the role since the resignation of W4DAN from the Secretary's position. A motion to formally appoint Marcia Lochner as Assistant Secretary was made, seconded, and carried. At the MARCO Membership in 2016, it will be necessary to elect a Secretary who is a regular (i.e., licensed) member.

N5RTF moved that we appoint N7NLN as Director for the 7^th call area. This motion passed. K6JW indicated that he would contact him to be certain that he would accept the position.

MediShare report: WB6OJB reported that since the last meeting, donations to MediShare totaled $775.

Aether and Grand Rounds Report: KD4GUA would like more radio-oriented submissions to the newsletter. He will recognize those donating $100 or more to MediShare in the Newsletter, although will not list the specific amounts donated. Those receiving the .pdf copy of the Aether gave it a positive review, and he will continue to mail it via our email list. KE5BQK suggested that one issue per year contain an envelope for members to use to donate to MediShare. KD4GUA was concerned that this would increase our postal cost. The issue was deferred and left unresolved. K6JW recognized Warren for his reliable, high-quality work in producing both the Newsletter and Grand Rounds.

Web Committee: The MARCO Website is edited and managed by Dave NT8E, and KM2L should not be listed as “Webmaster” in MARCO's publications. Discussion ensued over the listing of a Webmaster as opposed to the Web Committee. The issue was not actually resolved, and it appears that KM2L will be listed as Webmaster until resolution can be obtained. The Web Committee has, over the years, received misdirected email intended for Medi-Share, a health insurance company. AA4FL set up an auto-forwarding response, so that these communications go to the proper recipient without our intervention. The software also sends notification of the forwarding to the original sender. So far, this has worked well. KM2L continues to maintain MARCO's blog.

Radio-Internet Coordinator report: N5RTF provides streaming audio of Grand Rounds when he can hear net control. Bobbie W1BEW acts as an alternate receiving site. KM2L also hosts a Skype conference call and patches in the audio of the lecture as heard at his station. N5RTF also acts as net control for the CW net that precedes Grand Rounds. He states that there are usually about four check-ins.

Old Business: None.

New Business:

WB6OJB relayed a request for support by MediShare from “Shoulder-to-Shoulder.” This organization runs a dental clinic in an underserved area of Honduras. MARCO Director Roger W8CRK will be volunteering there later this year, and initiated the request for support. It was moved by AA4FL and seconded by KE5BQK that we donate $250 to support W8CRK's effort, with a request that he provide feedback after his return. The motion was carried.

AA4FL shared a number of his thoughts about the organization's future. He stated that it is important to attract younger membership, and that our weekly on-air lecture series may not be appealing to this group. Medical/Dental DXpeditions may be a way to introduce younger practitioners to ham radio. Jay may be involved in a 2016 expedition to Kiritimati along with a Brazilian group and Pacific Medical Aid.

Another thought is to involve MARCO, perhaps through ARRL, with academically-affiliated hospitals to assist in developing emergency communications capability.

AA4FL also recommended that MARCO become involved in social media. He moved that we establish a Facebook group, to be maintained by the Web Committee.. This motion was passed.

N5RTF moved that MARCO establish a $500 scholarship for licensed ham operators who are applying for graduate-level training in the medical arts. This would be run through the ARRL. This motion was passed. AA4FL will contact ARRL on this matter.

N5RTF suggested that we set up a Paypal button on our web pages for MediShare donations. The details will be worked out by the Web Committee.

The meeting was adjourned at 11:05 PDT on KD5QHV's motion.

MARCO Grand Rounds for March 29, 2015

Back from La La Land....THIS SUNDAY WE RESUME "GRAND ROUNDS" WITH A TALK ON "HYPO-THYROIDISM."    With 60% of Americans walking around overweight we wonder just how many are  hypothyroid?

MARCO Grand Rounds for January 25, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY, BY REQUEST, WE WILL TACKLE A TOUGH SUBJECT, “POST TRAUMATIC STRESS SYNDROME.” ALIAS “SHELLSHOCK,” “BATTLE FATIGUE.”  

7% OF CIVILIAN MALES AND 9.7%OF CIVILIAN FEMALES SUFFER FROM THIS  CONDITION—THIS RISES TO 10% OF MILITARY IN WW II AND 830,000 IN VIETNAM CONFLICT—ABOUT 1 IN 7.  WHAT’S GOING ON?  HOW CAN WE DIFFERENTIATE FROM THOSE ACTUALLY SUFFERING AND THOSE LOOKING FOR GAIN?  IS THERE A TREATMENT THAT WORKS OR ARE WE CHASING RAINBOWS?  TUNE IN AND ADD YOUR KNOWLEDGE

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL DISCUSS: “HOW TO PROJECT INTELLIGENCE” or “how to get the most attention when you teach and not make a fool of yourself (hint: wear glasses)…Should you put your hands in your pockets or wave them around like a flag? 

MARCO Grand Rounds for January 11, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY WE WILL HAVE A TREAT….IN 1994, DR. BOB CURRIER, PROF. OF NEUROLOGY AT THE UNIV. OF MISSISSIPPI MEDICAL SCHOOL WROTE A PAPER, “A Two-and-a-Half Color Rainbow,” which was printed in the “Archives of Neurology, Nov. 1994, Vol. 51.”   He autographed it with the inscription, “To Warren Brown with thanks & best wishes, Bob Currier.”  

Bob left us about 13 years ago but he left a most favorable remembrance.  (In fact, it was he who lassoed me into siding with him giving the every-other week talks on Grand Rounds, “Warren, you have an ideal location on the West Coast of Florida, you simply head your antenna NW and you  cover the entire country whereas they have a heck of a time hearing me in Mississippi and in Michigan.”   It was all true and you have been stuck with me ever since.  

Well, anyway, the talk will be on “Red-Green Deficiency” of which Bob was one of the 8% of Caucasian males who suffered from it.  In fact, his radio history relates back to this defect, eliminating him from flight training in WW II to radioman and gunner on a B-17 in Italy.  If everyone behaves, I will attempt to find Bob’s talk on Grand Rounds which was taped about 1998 and play it, if you wish, this Sunday.  

Bob was Marco’s “Walter Cronkite.”  Sunday will be his remembrance day.

MARCO Grand Rounds for January 4, 2015

From Warren KD4GUA:

This Sunday we will continue the discussion on “chronobiology.”  Recently we have found the body has not one Circadian  clock but many—are we regressing into Chinese Yin and Yang?  Did the Chinese in 500 BC discover what we have discovered now in the 21st Century?  For dessert we will throw in “Jet Lag,” is it more prone flying to Europe or in returning and what effect has the jet stream on the jet set.
