@krandiash Are you using this in any healthcare systems yet? Such as patient facing communication for scheduling or rescheduling appointments, straightforward advice or guidance. Exciting news. Congrats to you and team

Important 🧵 and commentary about critical analyses of AI studies in echo #echofirst #cvimaging

[David Ouyang, MD @David_Ouyang]

Tremendous work by @us2_ai and I'm a huge fan of their software and the space (AI automation of echo), but there are a few challenges with this type of analysis I want to point out and emphasize for the critical appraisal of AI (as well as reading papers in this space).

Chris Appleton and I have a sad news to share with the entire #Echo @ASE360 community.Liv Hatle, the legend, pioneer, and mentor to ALL of us passed away on 6/23. When we saw her a mo. ago, she was talking about her new book and calcific MS. Let us celebrate her amazing career!

[Tiffany Chen @tiffchenMD]

Excellent overview of the @ASE360 guidelines on #iecho training by @EGarciaSayan at #ASE2023 - important step in formalizing the training pathway in the growing multidisciplinary niche in #SHDimaging , as procedures ⬆️ in complexity

Fantastic work led by @rvparikh on the impact of heart failure #telemonitoring and healthcare utilization across an integrated healthcare delivery system out in @JCardFail!

Tips and tricks for trans septal puncture guidance by @renujain19 at #ASE2023. Know the anatomy and where you want to go, targeted TSP for specific device & anatomy. Know basic 2D views & 3D MPR. Know the technology. Know when to modify / adaptability. Know what can go wrong!

@Ron_Witteles @StanfordMedRes @StanfordDeptMed @HeartBobH @StanfordChiefs Congratulations and welcome to the new interns! Was recently reminded of my own end of intern year celebration trip with co-interns and now lifelong friends and colleagues. I'll try to think less of how old this transition every year has started to make me feel... 🙂🙃

[Dr. Purvi Parwani @purviparwani]

Excited to be participating in this women in echo session with @ErinMichos @RBP0612 and Dr. Jones! -Organized and chaired by @iamritu

Join us to discuss “Tips and Tricks: How to work in unfavorable environments”

Over a decade, research abstracts/papers in residency applications have increased 2-3x!!

No one wins in this kind of "arms race" 👎👎👎

Average applicant abstract/papers by specialty:
Neurosurg: 24
Derm: 19
Rad Onc: 18

Haha! Yay for promoting #POCUS in pop media, but boo for inaccurate depictions of imaging results... maybe this show needs an additional MD consultant to get the correct details, right @prajdev @ericilu ?

[Michael I. Prats @PratsEM]

Delighted to see #POCUS being used to assess for foreign body in Netflix series Manifest….

there is just one thing a little off with the ultrasound image 🤣

Since the start of a new academic year is just around the corner (👋new interns starting when I'm on call next week), here's a handy intro to IABPs in the ICU. #backtobasics #CardioTwitter

[Rachel Goodman @goodmra1]

1/28
You are the resident on CICU. A patient arrives with an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP). What is it? How does it work? How do you troubleshoot?

It's ⏰ for a @CardioNerds tweetorial!
AKA things I've gotten wrong on rounds so you don't have to.

First up: the basics

[American College of Cardiology @ACCinTouch]

A retrospective analysis from the #NCDR #LAAORegistry showed preprocedure imaging is used infrequently prior to Watchman implantation & patients who underwent preprocedural anatomic assessment of LAA had slightly better device & procedural success rates. https://t.co/Kbu5GJnAtp

Sneak 🫣 of my talk on issues in the field of multimodality #echofirst #iecho #yesCCT #whyCMR next week at #ASE2023 @ASE360. Modality silos are outdated and there is only the patient - choosing the best test for every question is the key!

[Omar Khalique @OKhaliqueMD]

Our Advanced #iecho #echofirst trainee for 2024-25 decided to do 2 years with us starting with #whyCMR #yesCCT so we have 1 slot open for fellowship. Train in advanced echo and #iecho in the busiest structural heart program in NYC + metro. I will be at #ASE2023 in case there are

🧵1/ With patient permission. This is one of our I6 PGY2s (right) doing a mitral repair, a superb PA (left) is assist and an attending is 2nd assist. A resident anesthesiologist is at bedside.

Many patients wonder how residents participate in their care.
One asked this week:
