Even amid the excitement of ACC, our fellows back home continue to excel, with an outstanding talk on echocardiography of the aorta (from the acute aorta to aneurysm surveillance to atheroma) by Dr. Nijat Aliyev @CCFcards@venumenon10@RanLeeMD@ageorge811
#ACC26 kicking off with Wild @WApplefeld kicking off our inaugural critical care cardiology pre conference - packed house with > 200 attendees who came in early for this effort - looking forward to this day! MCS, vent trouble shooting, and reconciling where the guidelines meet real practice in the modern CICU.
It was our distinct pleasure to host @jameshorowitzmd for our annual @CCF_PCCM critical care cardiology education day - outstanding session on the evolution of how we conceptualize, triage, and treat pulmonary embolism with an eye towards where we go next. Great sessions all day long, kudos to the faulty speakers and fellows for making it a success again! @RanLeeMD@NealChaisson
Just what you’d like to catch in action on a Friday evening: a smooth pericardiocentesis. Happy weekend from our star fellow Brett Austin and critical care attending @AndrewHigginsMD! Always learning from the best and it’s a blessing!
@venumenon10@RanLeeMD@CleClinicHVTI
Outstanding primer on the residual role for targeted temperature management in the post arrest setting with @carlosalviar and @AndreaElliottUM - happening now in the simulation size #AHA2025
@CleClinicHVTI Grand Rounds with the distinct privilege of hosting @rallamee - how we can better understand the nuances of placebo and stop fooling ourselves so consistently as we enter the next generation of device trials
Emotional and frank session on burnout, coping with both grief both personal and professional, and how how to be kinder to ourselves and each other - powerful closing hour of #critcarecards25
Day two of #critcarecards25 - caught a few minutes of outstanding session on VT storm featuring @RanLeeMD@LMethvinMD and the inimitable Sylvie Hall among other all stars before running to panel on international CCC education - too many good breakout sessions to pick just one!
Lively arguments on everything from vasoplegia to 3AM phone calls to your surgical colleagues - moderated masterfully as always by @venumenon10#critcarecards25
Every year it feels like the family grows a little bigger - great to see so many CCF critical care cardiology graduates and trainees that we don’t fit on one backdrop anymore! #critcarecards25@CCFcards@emireles_c@venumenon10
One of the enduring highlights of NYU’s annual CCC conference is reuniting old colleagues and seeing them shine - fantastic review of an under appreciated topic (stress ulcer prophylaxis in CICU) by @RaynerHartleyMD#critcarecards25
