Check out Top 10🔑points from the 🆕ACC/American Heart Association/HFSA Guideline for the Management of #HeartFailure #CardioTwitter #ClinicalGuidelines #ACC22

🧵Key Points👇

#ACC22 LBTs/ Featured Research one liners:

1. VALOR HCM: MAVACAMTEN at 16 weeks in symptomatic HCM decreased the need of SRT

2. Sodium HF: in HF outpatients low-Na diet of 1500 mg/day was not associated with a reduction in CV events but moderate benefit on QoL by KCCQ

💥My top 10 learning points from the #ESCCongress 2021💥

A thread for cardiologists/general physicians

1) There is a treatment for HFpEF!

Grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with UCLA IR MD Anderson Cancer Center and many of the attendings that have guided me through #bruinhearts fellowship. Thanks you. Check out our review on structural cardiac interventions in the #cardioonc population

I don't want to brag but... Fatima Rodriguez has this awesome review article on antithrombotic therapy NEJM with Robert Harrington, just out today! So proud to call her as my colleague and friend =) Also an amazing role model working mom. A rockstar! Eldrin Lewis Stanford CVI StanfordCVFellowship

Always much concern about 'progression' of AS in pregnancy. But a 50% increase in gradients is expected. DVI and estimated AVA remain the same. AJC 2016 #cardiotwitter Cardio-Obstetrics Dan Halpern Candice Silversides ACHA @IntlACHD #ACHD #CHD Yalda Afshar pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27506332/

Check out our review of cardiotoxicity in #immunotherapy ! With the huge growth in ICI & CAR-T therapies, it’s critical for all cardiologists to be aware of these effects for timely dx/tx. Thank you Eric H Yang, MD for the opportunity! Michael Rothberg Patrick Holman, MD #cardioonc

Honored to have the opportunity to write this JACC Focus Seminar on #VitaminD , #Calcium #Supplements and Implications for Cardiovascular Health' for JACC Journals. Thank you to my coauthors Miguel Cainzos-Achirica Amir Heravi Larry Appel for their collaboration🙏jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.…

How often do you check for Primary Aldosteronism (PA)?

Chances are, NOT nearly often enough!

VA study reveals widespread undertesting...can we do better?

#HFpEF pearl of the day: If a patient with HF symptoms and normal LVEF has E/A ratio < 1 and PA systolic pressure > 50 mmHg on echo, it’s more likely PAH, not HFpEF. Low E/A ratio is due to underfilled LV due to pulmonary vascular obstruction in setting of PAH.
