Love seeing strong clinical evidence supporting HF NP/PA/PharmDs getting patients not seen by HF Physicians on GDMT! #GDMTWorks

Alright #MedTwitter, here's some 🔥 data on optimizing #GDMT for #heartfailure and highlight the recent work of @AferditaMD and @laurapco Want a solution to #GDMT gaps? Read on about our GDMT Clinic manuscript currently in press at #JACC-HF. jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.…🧵

It's a good sign when back to back years the resident research project I'm precepting is bolstered with compelling background literature during data collection 😂 Looking forward to when I have the research acumen to bring some of these ideas to the multicenter stage

Sad to hear, praying for all involved locally and hopeful there are safeguards in place to mitigate the potential shortages

🚨 Baxter Healthcare was significantly impacted by #Helene & there will be significant shortages of IV fluids. #TwitteRx

For all cardiologists… have you heard of DIGITAL TWINS? Do you believe in Digital Twins? I suspect their role will be a lot more prominent in the future for precision medicine 💊 - this article @escardio #EHJ worth a read! academic.oup.com/eurheartj/adva… #cardiac #prevention

Substantial drop-off in GDMT use prior to hospital discharge, half without clear contraindication. Among community-based hospitals, <50% patients discharged on triple/quadruple therapy. #GDMTWorks but only if patients take them 💊 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

GDMT use for HF remains unacceptably low in a community-based cohort and is often discontinued prior to discharge. Urgently need care strategies to improve GDMT use across clinical settings. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @JACCJournals



Aim Higher #GDMTWorks

It’s #WhatsNewWednesday! New registry data suggest that most patients hospitalized with new onset HFrEF are eligible for quadruple GDMT-but fewer than 1 in 6 get it at discharge. Let's aim higher🎯 jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.…

The OCEANIC-AF randomized trial of the factor XIa inhibitor asundexian was stopped early owing to a higher incidence of stroke or systemic embolism than with apixaban therapy among patients with atrial fibrillation. Full trial results: nej.md/473TRdc #ESCardio

Legitimately practice changing: the #TIGHTK multicenter open label RCT found that in post-op cardiac surgery patients, repleting potassium to 3.6 mEq/L was non-inferior 4.5 mEq/L but saved substantial RN ⏱️ time & 💰 money ($111 per pt). jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

Whenever I have a patient visit centered around GLP1 initiation or titration, I almost always get some type of compliment regarding my physique or questions regarding my diet/exercise. Those small dopamine boosts help make my day and motivate my continued fitness journey 💪🏾


Biggest gym/physique compliment, one of my patients said I looked like an Olympian and asked if I worked out to which she replied "I could tell" 😭😍💪🏽
