Another piece in the LBBB cardiomyopathy puzzle.

Thanks to BIOTRONIK US for sponsoring this Saturday direction. We were able to get an LV lead down a great lateral branch. Unfortunately the prognosis is still poor for this patient.

It’s been a privilege to have Brett Atwater as a mentor and look forward to continued collaboration in his exciting new role leading EP at @IHVInews. Congratulations Brett!

Thanks to Derek S Chew for taking the lead on this important project that started as a term paper for CRTP Duke SOM, became a presentation Heart Rhythm Society, and is now a full paper! I learned a lot about cost effectiveness modeling and am glad we could apply it to AF ablation. #EPeeps

Car wouldn’t start, Lyft had almost no gas in the tank and it was cold and raining outside, but I still made it to get my COVID vaccine this am! Very grateful to Durham VA Health Care System for helping me keep my patients and community safe. #DVAMC

Forget vaccine bicep selfies, here’s my vaccine administrator selfie. Grateful to get my shot early, happy to pay it forward. Duke Heart Duke Cardiology Fellows Duke Health
