Time to consider a trial of temporary RVADs in #HF patients high-risk for RVF going for #LVAD implant. Is this the right tool or should we be thinking about AI of RV function on ECHO or dare I say RVF risk score? Jeff Teuteberg @manreetkanwar Rebecca Cogswell Susan Joseph MD

Congratulations Shashank a special opportunity for a distinguished physician scientist with a bright future ahead! I’m sure there were so many pearls of wisdom shared. A true presidential privilege.

This initial study with apixaban demonstrates feasibility of using this medication in #LVAD patients. We look forward to working with the #MCS community on a phase 3, multicenter RCT to demonstrate safety and efficacy of this treatment.
