One of the most devastating ways sepsis affects heart failure is having people prescribe “goal directed medical therapy” instead of guideline directed medical therapy” & i can’t get over it.

Always so relieved when my patient’s CRTD is referred to as “in situ” in progress notes. You never know when you’re gonna walk in and the device is ex situ and a bloody mess on the floor.

What we can say about IABP is that it does not reduce mortality from shock following AMI. If you haven’t realized that different cardiogenic shock etiologies are different (including response to therapies) then you need to start rounding in the CCU

Do I have this right? - ABIM requires yearly fees from physicians who are already cert to “maintain certification” - no evidence that MOC helps pt care - ABIM will report you as “not certified” if you don’t pay - hospitals require certification Idk kinda sounds like extortion

With a quarter million views and 6 likes (some of which are from @ABIM employees) this takes the award for the most emotionally tone deaf tweet I have ever seen. Physicians are citing #MOC as a major contributor to burnout, & you have the audacity to promote doing MOC while on

Last week was momentous for Piedmont as we enrolled the first patient in the southeast US in the NIH supported PIVATAL trial. #AblateVT during LVAD implant. The collaboration/partnership between CT surgery, EP and HF at Piedmont Heart Institute remains unrivaled! #epeeps
