Can heart transplant recipients experience vasovagal syncope??
This came up during my time in the CCU, here's a short 🧵 investigating this question. Special thanks to @AHajduczok of @TJHeartFellows.

It is because we need to have a high-quality conversation, in very challenging cases.
In my opinion, there must be 2 phases of conversations.
