A Novel Physical Rehabilitation Intervention for Older Patients with Acute Decompensated Heart Failure: The REHAB-HF Trial Dalane Kitzman, @coconnormd et al #ACC21
Excited for #ACC21. Looking forward to sharing results of REHAB-HF: innovative physical function intervention designed specifically for older, frail pts hospitalized w acute HF regardless of EF. @coconnormd@GoReevesMD@DukeHeartCenter@ACCinTouch https://t.co/XNu4adqcCb
Piecing together the pathophysiological puzzle of #frailty and anemia in #HeartFailure. Shared common mechanisms? Anemia potentiating #frailty? Perhaps a target for mitigating/preventing #frailty in #HeartFailure? Lots to learn.
Important article. Need to establish consensus around the approach to managment in the pre, peri and post operative period to improve on these outcomes. https://t.co/g2EovUlRPv
