Fantastic review from Ryan J Tedford MD and Brian Houston MD on RV failure in NEJM (nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…). It's a major frontier to solve. Honored to work with Ryan, Brian, Paul Hassoun, Steven Hsu, Imran Aslam, Vivek Jani & Ilton Salazar Johns Hopkins Cardiology to help sort this out

Congratulations to colleagues Carson Keck, Marat Fudim, MD MHS, Sheldon Litwin and #BarryBorlaug for completing this intriguing look at differing hemodynamic patterns between obese and non-obese patients during treatment for ADHF. onlinejcf.com/article/S1071-… Summary figure:

A 1943 study concluded that “weakness of the right side of the heart…seems less important” in the dynamics of #HeartFailure. A similar conclusion was drawn from the success of the Fontan procedure in patients with congenital heart disease. 1/13

authors.elsevier.com/a/1gpic2d9GHwH… 🚨🔥📜🖊️JACC Journals publishing our work on incorporating critical care training into advanced HF fellowship. We present a framework for implementation of this novel pathway. HUGE opportunity to partner w/ crit care and expand CICU workforce!👩‍⚕️🧑‍⚕️🏥🌟

To say it was a privilege to host Harriette Van Spall, MD MPH for MUSC Cardiology grand rounds would be the understatement of 2023! So many critical messages delivered: burden of HF and inequities, #GDMT implementation, & redefining eligibility criteria/clinical trial design. Simply amazing!

One of my favorite things I get to do is interact with research at the abstract/poster level at scientific sessions where everyone is passionate about the topic, getting ideas and inspiration from colleagues. #CharlestonHFpEFConference will provide that in abundance! Can't wait!

Why are we living in a HeartMate II World? Provocative perspective by Brian Houston MD Amy G. Fiedler, MD Jason N.

Thanks Ryan J Tedford MD ! I'll be interested to hear the community's thoughts. Hoping the piece provokes conversation around how we can best offer this life-sustaining therapy to patients in need.

An absolute honor to have you B. Hadley Wilson MD ! An absolutely fantastic future-looking talk about a new frontier in cardiovascular medicine.
