In symptomatic moderate AS, the stress aortic valve index (SAVI) identifies a high-risk subgroup not captured by conventional metrics and independently predicts the need for valve intervention (HR 5.7).

Sacubitril/Valsartan in patients with HF & deterioration in eGFR to <30 with therapy. Continuation of ARNi was associated with persistent clinical benefit and no incremental risk. @JACCJournals#JACCHF https://t.co/m5BvBm0B4m
Diagnosis of #HFpEF in pts w/ #AFib: HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF scores demonstrated moderate accuracy. (HFA-PEFF AUC 0.633, H2FPEF AUC 0.707). These data suggest invasive hemodynamic diagnosis of HFpEF is the gold standard in this cohort https://t.co/1pyaf38gCu #JACCHF
🔥🔥🔥Value of Invasive Hemodynamics assessment in #LVAD patients: State of Art Review in @JACCJournals#JACCHF by team @FilioBillia
🏷️ ⬆️ burden of HRAEs with #LVAD
🏷️ IHA allow speed optimization & symptom evaluation with tailored Mx
🏷️Echo doesn’t reflect unloading
We are excited to share our work on #RV function in #LVAD patients. Using RV P-V loops, we find occult RV contractile dysfunction in LVAD patients (vs controls), which correlates to the loss of septal contractility from LV unloading.

How do you relate the parameters and hemodynamics of continuous-flow left ventricular assist devices (LVAD)?
Here's a🧵 that seeks to answer this question for trainees on their CHF rotation

Obesity-phenotype HFpEF
🔆 Dual primary endpt. achieved
1. 🔼 health status (KCCQ)
2. 🔽 weight
3. 🚶 🔼 walk distance
4. Reduced NTproBNP
The beginning of a new era of therapies for this phenotype
#MRA initiation during admission is associated with improved outcomes irrespective of EF in patients with acute #HeartFailure
In-hospital MRA therapy linked to ⬇️ risk of mortality, CV death, HF🏥 or renal failure - all independent of LVEF
