We are in a “golden-era”of GDMT for pts w/ HFrEF, what barriers do we face in 25’ in implementation? Should strategies be dynamic by race/age/SE background? Our editorial in Journal of Cardiac Failure by University of Chicago Cardiology Fellowship Mary Acosta Manreet Kanwar explores this❓ 📎 onlinejcf.com/article/S1071-…

New tech alert! A wearable sensor (CardioTag) + advanced ML model estimates Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure, key for heart failure, non-invasively. Tested against invasive measures, it showed strong correlation, opening doors for remote HF management sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

As we go into the next cycle of fellowship application grateful for the support from AST leadership to get this team together. This is a great summary of our deep dive on how we can get more excitement around the field of solid organ transplantation. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Ever wondered what determines the hemodynamic impact of tricuspid regurgitation? What is the impact of RegVol/RegFr on RA V waves and on stroke volume? What the impact of RA compliance on RA V waves? Can we safely use indirect Fick in tricuspid regurgitation? Circ: Heart Failure 🧵👇

Very well done study! Adds a lot to understanding of TR through multi modalities. Read this thread, and, more importantly, the paper is very informative. Congrats Sergio Caravita, Claudia Baratto, & team!

Gp 1 PH with high HFpEF probability have less clinical improvement with traditional PH therapy, compared to gp 1 PH + low HFpEF prob. Do we need more intensive PH therapy, sotatercept or HFpEF therapies for these pts? Many unknowns that need RCTs. publications.ersnet.org/content/erj/ea…

🚨New analysis of ICM vs NICM in HF-CS using CCC-TN registry. ICM associated with: ⬆️comorbidities, pre-admission cardiac arrests ⬆️ RRT, ventilation ⬇️ transplant, similar LVAD rates ⬆️ Mortality 💡Etiology matters—even with similar MCS & inotropes 🔗 bit.ly/4enuQgU
