So honored to have the great Harriette Van Spall, MD MPH ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ speak again @ #CharlestonHFpEFConference! Implementation of heart failure management & therapeutics remains a challenge. Ones that improve use and achieve doses of GDMT are most effective. A VICTORY(-HF) coming soon? John P Erwin III MD MBA MACC (#BigPoppy )

Vishal Rao delivers a beautiful talk on the increasingly realized association of fatty liver disease &HFpEF. New terminology and emerging pharmacotherapies, but only IF diagnosed. Clinically important field that is ripe for research. ๐Ÿง #CharlestonHFpEFConference Sheldon Litwin
