Excellent Tweetorial by Tony Breu describing #SGLT2i effects on ameliorating anemia

Curiously, similar observations w #ARNI sacubitril/vasartan in #PARADIGMHF

Might many effective HF therapies reduce hepcidin & improve systemic iron utilization?

#Amyloidosis : The ‘Unrare’ Rare Disease
🔹 It's not rare
🔹 Simple algorithm to Dx-Evaluate for monoclonal protein, then PYP scan or biopsy
🔹 Effective treatments available
🔹 Great example of understanding pathophysiology ➡️ effective therapies

ICU Hemodynamics Tips - Swan-Ganz catheters:

This will not be a comprehensive thread. Just happened to place a couple of Swan-Ganz (SG) catheters this week, so it is a good time to emphasize few basic points/steps. I have made a mistake (more than once) in each one of them…

One of the most important cardiology papers, updated annually - 2024 American Heart Association Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics Update.
Congrats/thanks to all authors - esp our very own MGH Cardiology Fellows Sarah Urbut!

ICU Hemodynamics:

The weekly reminder of the left ventricular (LV) pressure-volume loop and the concept of ventriculo-arterial coupling:

Highly recommended for all trainees and academicians! An excellent and timely read!

“Maintaining medicine’s commitment to excellence while remedying our failures requires distinguishing unnecessary trainee harms from necessary discomforts.” 💯
