Introduction

Dr. Trish Muganthan is a pediatrician who works as a neonatal and pediatric transport consultant in the Yorkshire and Humber regions of the United Kingdom. She helps run a multidisciplinary team of experts who travel from a home base, help stabilize a sick child and then bring that child back to the base for definitive care. We spend most of the conversation exploring the problem sets that Trish and her team are routinely working with. Along the way we dig into things like the interplay between local knowledge and elite expertise,. How bi-directional learning makes for effective smash teams, and the key role that kindness plays in elite-level medical resuscitation.
