Many colleagues ask at my talks why would any patient use #ECG devices (like Kardia, on the photo) at home. Because such testing can be life-saving, and we want to be the point-of-care!
And then this study comes out - check it out, in open access: https://t.co/bt1yLnCubV
@fmedassociates@EricTopol@CaristoHeart Good luck with the new programme. We found altered risk prediction in a half of patients. Published data: https://t.co/H4W5WOG8c7
and my early thoughts on how FAI changes practice here: https://t.co/m7UOai8R1P
Our amazing Heart Team is undertaking pioneering research to help reduce deaths from heart failure across the globe. Their work includes a new alert system which flags up if a patient needs urgent care. Read how Jersey patients are already benefitting here https://t.co/UOr6r1Re0v
For Jersey peeps, you can do Caristo screening privately but hopefully Gov will introduce for at risk populations - saves money in the long run.
Here's my heart !
Delighted to present some of our work in Jersey using @CaristoHeart to predict CV risk at @BSCImaging. CaRi-Heart changed risk prediction in 1/2 and management in 1/3. Thanks to @jersey_research for funding ✅ 🫀@mitcharj @GovJsyHCS
Tomorrow - Oct 28th - we learn the results of 3 landmark randomised studies in patients with aortic stenosis (AS)
Results of EARLY-TAVR, EVOLVED & TAVR UNLOAD will be unveiled at #TCT2024 in a Joint LBCT Session with #NEJM
These could well be practice-changing studies...
A 🧵
Brilliant achievement for the Jersey Heart Team’s research lab run by @Doceyebrow. Leading the way with #AI and #digitalhealth innovation @TheAllanLab @GovJsyHCS
@mitcharj@Heart_BMJ It’s good that it’s been recognised by Kumar et al. Raises a few questions. We know we aren’t doing enough strength training as a population, but are we incorporating it enough into cardiac rehab, and should we be putting patients awaiting TAVI in whilst waiting for the surgery?
@mitcharj@Heart_BMJ Sarcopenia is lethal. It causes people to lose independence, increases their chance of falling, and begin their downward spiral. IMO should be akin to T2 diabetes. We should be doing our best to get people moving more, especially strength training. The young as well as the old.
@GovJsyHCS @GovJersey So glad to support another Innovation and Improvement in health program targeting the needs of our community, and giving opportunities for our staff. With the Harvard AI program and Aspired trial the Heart Team is becoming the first name on everyone's global heart team sheet!
Great news for Jersey hearts this valentines.
Our cardiology team has been picked for a prestigious pilot scheme.
25IN25 aims to cut heart failure deaths by 25% in 25 years.
Please show them some love!
Delighted to be part of Jersey's Digital Day organised by
@JEPnews and @DigitalJersey. There are so many opportunities for the Island to lead in #digitalhealth innovation. Patient controlled data is the key 🩺💞

@gmcuk I am bereft of words that an institution with one singular purpose worth 100s of millions of pounds is stopped from making a mistake of unfathomable scale because of an online ruckus. This should have been shot down at the very first godforsaken meeting where it was suggested.
