Match results for 2024, reported today, suggest again that interest in AHFTC is low. Of n=73 programs participating in the match n=30 were filled and n=43 went unfilled (59% of programs unmatched). Of n=129 available positions, n=73 filled and n=56 (43%) unfilled. #NRMP
So great to get to spend time with the Shushoks and my good friend Andrew , wonderful to hear about all the great things happening at RC so proud to be a maroon for life! @fshushok, @KimBlair7@RoanokeCollege
So important for us as a HF community to recognize the disparities that exist in delivery of AHF therapies. Out now our multi center study shows real world racial and sex disparities in those referred to AHF programs. Women need to be referred more.
Important disparities exist in our at risk patient population, AHF therapies save lives and improve quality of life. Excited to have our work supporting these findings soon. Our community has work to do to improve access. @shwinner@ajaysmd@dranulala
@CircHF@TomCascinoMD@UM_IHPI@umichCVC Important work that highlights sobering disparities in the receipt of life-saving AHF therapies. More data supporting these findings will be published soon. @JaredHerr4

@EPWoodsShop Thanks @EPWoodsShop results highlight need for successful collaboration with EP as we have been able to do with your group 👍. Collaboration on patients with EP is essential, they referred with the ⬇️ frequency despite being in a unique position to identify AHF pts. @netta_doc
@LiviuKlein@ajaysmd@dranulala@JCardFail@shwinner 2/ Results are interesting, uptake and acceptance will be variable. EHR triggers are good within your own system, however we found 51% of referrals came from outside the programs system. Aligning those providers is more going to be more complex and a big gap in access.
@LiviuKlein@ajaysmd@dranulala@JCardFail@shwinner 1/ We are implementing similar care pathway for HF integrating guidelines and triggers for referral. Agree @ajaysmd that in community based systems it is not possible to mandate referral for many reasons. Our database is also able to provide a ‘report card’ of GDMT.
Pts w/advanced #HF referred too late ⏳
❓Who refers?
#HF docs most, #EP least often
❓Barriers?
👉🏽too sick
👉🏽psychosocial reasons
Systematic multicenter data enables identification of challenges @JCardFail@shwinner@JaredHerr4@ajaysmd
