AP, better triple-check your ABG values— InterQual and Coding Queries are going to nitpick if this was really respiratory failure vs. insufficiency

New in Circulation: #HFC members review the use of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in #heartfailure trials. Butler et al. outline key challenges—tool selection, timing, meaningful change, and stats—that must be addressed for wider PRO adoption in research and care.

🚨Two new JACC Advances papers drop today linking SGLT2 inhibitors ↔ apolipoprotein M (ApoM) across very different settings—ambulatory HFrEF (DEFINE-HF) and acute inflammation (LPS-sepsis & COVID-19). Let’s unpack why this kidney-liver-vascular axis matters. A 🧵 1️⃣/15

Late RV failure after LVAD? Most run the other way. Not Lisa Jennings. 💪 One of the few bold enough to face it head-on — and patients are better for it. #HFSA #HeartFailure
