Among adolescents, complaints regarding fatigue are relatively common and it’s been assumed to be associated with the hormonal changes of puberty, the various social conflicts common in adolescence and a variety of educational expectations. At times, fatigue becomes chronic and may be accompanied by other physical symptoms including mood disorders, headaches, musculoskeletal pains, and various GI symptoms. When chronic fatigue in adolescence has been investigated, no single causal factor has been found and its likely to be multi-factorial. The topic for this podcast is “Chronic Fatigue in Adolescents” and we’ll discuss this with our guest Philip R. Fischer, M.D., a pediatrician from the Department of Pediatrics at the Mayo Clinic.

As primary care providers, we are charged with ensuring our patients are healthy. According to the World Health Organization, “health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” However, sometimes our patients will not inform us of what problems or difficulties that they may be facing in their lives, which makes it difficult to help in these situations. As result, we must screen or ask patients specific questions in attempts to make sure they are okay. One such example that we may screen for in these instances is intimate partner violence. This condition has many presentations and can affect anyone. Intimate partner violence or domestic violence is reported to be a serious, preventable, public health concern as it affects more than 32 million Americans. Tune in to this episode to learn more about what intimate partner violence looks like, the psychology behind intimate partner violence perpetrators, how we should be screening for this, and what we can do to help our patients in these situations.

If we see older patients, we commonly see Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementias in our practice. At times, the presenting symptoms can be quite subtle and it’s not uncommon for the diagnosis to take several years to establish. Very often, any early symptoms which are noticed are attributed to the aging process. Although we don’t have very effective options for treating dementia, it’s still important to diagnose the condition as early as possible. In this podcast, we’ll be discussing “Assessing the Older Patient with New Cognitive Symptoms.” We’ll review the usefulness of a mental status exam, recommended lab tests, whether a brain imaging study is indicated and more with our guest, Ericka E. Tung, M.D., M.P.H., an internist, and geriatrician from the Division of Community Internal Medicine at the Mayo Clinic.
