POLG 101: What Patients, Families, and Clinicians Should Know

POLG is often called a rare disease, but for the families living with it, the impact is life-changing. In this episode of The CortiCare Podcast, Dr. Amy Goldstein and Dr. Mary Kay Koenig discuss how POLG affects the body's ability to produce energy, why symptoms can appear at any age, and what patients, caregivers, and clinicians should know about this complex mitochondrial disorder. At CortiCare, we know how important timely neurological insight can be for patients with rare and complex conditions. Through EEG monitoring and interpretation services, we help providers gather the information needed to support diagnosis, treatment decisions, and ongoing care.

Finding Joy in the Suffering - A Family’s Fight for Seizure Freedom

When you’re in survival mode, asking for help can feel harder than trying to carry everything yourself.

One of Lisa’s biggest takeaways for families walking a similar path: let people in. Allow your community to support you. Accept the meals, the check-ins, the help. You were never meant to carry every piece of the journey by yourself. Want to follow more of Charlie’s journey?

A Family’s Fight for Seizure Freedom

Some stories stay with you long after the conversation ends. In this episode of The CortiCare Podcast, Brad Beauchamp sits down with Ty, Lisa, and Charlie O’Connor to share the reality of navigating a rare genetic epilepsy diagnosis, years of seizures, hospital stays, clinical trials, surgeries, and the constant search for answers. Charlie is one of only a handful of children in the world living with a rare GABRA2 variant. His journey has included more than 30 medications, EEG monitoring, infantile spasms, ketogenic therapy, brain surgery, VNS therapy, and breakthrough moments that gave their family hope again. But this episode is about more than medicine. It is about advocacy. Community. Choosing joy in the middle of uncertainty. And what it means to keep moving forward even when there is no clear roadmap. The conversation also gives an honest look at the role EEG played throughout Charlie’s journey and how timely neurological insight helped shape critical decisions along the way.

Why Purple Day Matters: Turning Awareness Into Action

What happens when a life-changing moment becomes a turning point instead of a setback? In this episode of The CortiCare Podcast, Brigid Baffico shares her powerful journey living with epilepsy, from experiencing her first seizure at 15 to becoming a passionate advocate for awareness and education. After a deeply public moment in high school, Brigid made a choice: stay silent or take control of her story. She chose to speak up. Now, through her work with the Anita Kaufman Foundation, she’s helping break stigmas, educate communities, and empower the next generation with knowledge that can truly save lives. We were proud to attend the 2026 Purple Day Expo, standing alongside this incredible community and continuing the conversation around awareness, access, and better patient outcomes. And of course, Reggie was there too! Reggie was inspired by our R.EEG Ts and conceived by our customer facing team, he serves as a reminder that real expertise should always be on, not just when it’s available. From classroom education to global initiatives like Purple Day, this conversation dives into: • The reality of living with epilepsy • Common misconceptions and how to challenge them • Why awareness is still so critical today • The power of community and advocacy This is more than a story...it’s a reminder that education changes outcomes. 👉 Subscribe to The CortiCare Podcast for more conversations on clinical expertise, innovation, and the future of brain health.

How Clinical Trials Actually Work

Most people think clinical trials are risky, experimental, or a last resort. The reality is, they’re how every major medical breakthrough becomes possible. CortiCare has been a part of the thousands of EEGs associated with clinical trials. In this episode of The CortiCare Podcast, Dr. Katie Coerver breaks down the structure behind clinical trials, from observational studies to interventional research and Phase 1 through Phase 3 testing. This conversation goes beyond definitions. It gets into what patients are actually weighing when they consider participation, why placebo groups are necessary, and how success is measured in diseases, like Alzheimer’s, where slowing progression can be a major win. If you’ve ever wondered how new treatments are developed, tested, and brought to patients, this is the foundation. 👉 Subscribe to The CortiCare Podcast for more conversations on clinical expertise, innovation, and the future of brain health.

When Does a Newborn Need an EEG? NICU vs Outpatient Evaluation Explained

In this episode of The CortiCare Podcast, host Bradley Beauchamp, BS, R. EEG T., CLTM, sits down with Dr. Mitzi Payne, pediatric neurologist and epileptologist, to break down one of the most important distinctions in neonatal neurology: inpatient vs. outpatient EEGs. Bradley and Dr. Payne walk through the differences between babies in the NICU and those who’ve already gone home but return for evaluation. From prematurity and therapeutic hypothermia to common concerns like jerking, twitching, and febrile seizures, Dr. Payne explains what providers look for, how gestational age impacts interpretation, and why timing matters so much in the first 4 weeks. The conversation also covers: • When abnormal movements are seizures and when they’re not • How cooling therapy protects the brain after hypoxic injury • What parents should document before an evaluation • Red flags like infantile spasms that require urgent care If you work in neonatal care, pediatric neurology, or simply want a clearer understanding of how EEG guides early-life decision making, this episode delivers practical insight grounded in real clinical experience. 👉 Subscribe to The CortiCare Podcast for more conversations on clinical expertise, innovation, and the future of brain health.
