Introduction to the Zentensivist Podcast
Welcome to the Zentensivist podcast!
If you’re not familiar with zentensivism, it’s a holistic approach to the art of caring for the critically ill patient. At its heart, it’s a minimalistic philosophy built on a foundation of clinical mastery and risk tolerance, with the ultimate goal of maximizing humanity in the ICU.
My name is Matt Siuba and I’m a critical care physician. The primary purpose of this podcast is to share audio digests of the content on zentensivist.com (https://zentensivist.com/). However, over time I hope for this to evolve into a more traditional podcast with interviews and more in-depth commentaries. If you like what you find here, please subscribe and follow along!
I’m happy to hear your feedback along the way.
