There’s no good data for routine fluid restriction in heart failure and is one of many things that we continue to do for no reason. It never even made sense physiologically when we understand the role of vasopressin and other hormones.

EMPACT-MI trial: Among patients hospitalized for acute myocardial infarction and at risk for heart failure, empagliflozin did not lead to a significantly lower risk of a first heart-failure hospitalization or death from any cause than placebo. nej.md/4cEb6EB #ACC24

The PREVENT trial showed that preventive #PCI of focal non-FFR-positive plaques that are angiographically >50% & have evidence of vulnerability on intravascular imaging along w/ OMT is superior to OMT for clinical outcomes at 2 years. Read more: bit.ly/3xuHWrl #ACC24

RESHAPE-HF trial: Among patients with at least moderate functional mitral regurgitation, transcatheter valve repair led to a lower rate of heart failure events during 24 months and better health status at 12 months than medical therapy alone. nej.md/477rpaC #ESCardio

Abelacimab versus Rivaroxaban in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: NEJM 🥸Summary 👇👇👇

A patient in ICU. CW Doppler interrogation is performed across the mitral valve in 4-chamber view. What are the waves labeled A-E and what are the hemodynamic implications?

Celebrating our incredible graduating fellows at Houston Methodist Cardiovascular Fellowships! Grateful and honored to receive the Rising Star Award 🙏Huge thanks to the amazing faculty and co-fellows who welcomed me into the family. Excited for year 2! Ju Kim Nadeen N.

📢New Algorithm for Estimating LV Filling Pressure by Echo: 🔴increase in the number of patients in whom LV filling pressure can be estimated 🟢only 2 cases of indeterminate LV filling pressure and the majority had a definitive LV filling pattern ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…

🫀NEW GUIDELINE🫀 Read our newest #ASEGuideline, "Recommendations for the Evaluation of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function by Echocardiography and for Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction Diagnosis!" bit.ly/3Gyh2n4

Congratulations to authors Sherif F Nagueh Jae K. Oh Allan L. Klein Bonita Anderson Kavita Sharma on leading a great effort providing a practical algorithmic approach to diastology and filling pressures!
