In this segment, our guest Dr. Brian Berman, Professor of Family Medicine and the founder and director of the University Of Maryland Center for Integrative Medicine talks about the CAM treatments and studies currently in progress at the Shock Trauma Center at the University of Maryland. He and his research team are working with the ICU team to determine if they can make a difference in patient outcomes using markers such as decreased inflammation, pain reduction, lesser need for narcotics and stress reduction. Join host Dr. Bill Rutenberg to learn more about this interesting work.
