CIED LBCTs kicking off with @hisdoc1 talking about LBBAP vs LV lead, retrospective/observational. This seems to be the data we've been waiting for, pending RCT LeftvsLeft RCT. #HRS2023 #2023PaceSetter ✅Inclusion: EF </=35%, pacing modality per operator ✅N=1778, 981 BiV, 797 LBBAP

My first proud accomplishment at BCM Cardiology BCM Cardiology -- a unified and structurally organized EP sub-section: - 8 full-time faculty performing state-of-the-art procedures at 3 hospitals - Research portfolio in excess of $30M - Looking to grow: recruiting physician-scientists

Dr. Kendra Smith's role as Engagement Core in the Left vs. Left study! #LeftvsLeft #PCORI #Caridology #Electrophysiology Like, Retweet, and Follow to keep up with Left vs. Left and help us spread awareness about our cause.… See more

Thrilled to share our latest research on the new molecule implicated in #Afib. We identified that FKBP5 is downregulated in AF pts. Using various FKBP5-deficiency models, we uncovered a correlation between its deficiency, increased NCX1 levels, and arrhythmic Ca release events 🧵

Tune in as Cynthia Chauhan, one of our amazing patient advisory and executive board members, shares with us her role as Patient Advocate with Left vs. Left as well as the importance of the patient voice in clinical studies. #leftvsleft #pcori #cardiology #patientadvocacy

Reduction in all-cause mortality for CSP vs BiVP in meta-analysis of observational studies. doi.org/10.1111/jce.15… Alex Kim, Erica Kim Pugal Vijayaraman Kenneth Ellenbogen Will we observe the same in RCTs? Need to do meta-analysis of multiple RCTs? LeftvsLeft RCT #EPeeps comments?

Left vs. Left is looking for new patients with pacemakers to recruit to the study! View the image below for more information, and click the link to apply if you are interested. bit.ly/LeftvsLeft_PAB… Or, share to get the word out! Every click helps. #cardiology #pacemaker
