Two placebo-controlled studies with a synergistic outcome both published in JACC by two fabulous fellows from the ORBITA team @rajkumar_chris @FloSimader

Nearly 50% of UK cardiologists are over 50 - do the maths!

Keeping our profession “in the game” in later years is vital for 1) us as professionals 2) our younger colleagues ( otherwise they do the work) 3) our patients who will miss out on all those many years of experience 👇

A 38-year-old black man died at @NHSBartsHealth after a flawed decision to sedate him. Coroner criticises "coping culture" and the trust response including governance failures and poor effort by lawyers #patientsafety

The speakers, moderators, & panelists in my #ICNCCT2024 session today on discordant & challenging situations in CAD. A great group & great discussions with the audience! @escardio @MyASNC @heartrct @IbrahimMSaeed1 @andgiannopmd @bncs_imaging @estelais @alessia_gimelli

[Will Watson @DrWillWatson]

Other people will do imaging will see patients with small left ventricles and wonder about the risk. In this cohort study of patients with AF, a small left ventricle conferred additional risk over patients with normal dimensions. https://t.co/WEmPzxaeyw

We need to get more signatures on this petition to put more pressure on @NHSEngland @AstraZeneca @DaiichiSankyoUK to get round the table & renegotiate. Despite all the tags on social media & publicity in the media they don’t seem to be responding

[Dr Rani Khatib FESC @DrRaniKhatib]

A very stroppy letter from a GP in response to our cardiology recommendation to merely increase the patient's beta blocker dose.
"I feel nothing more than a glorified administrator" the GP wrote.
I am not sure what else we could do.

Excellent talk by my friend @DrRyanPDaly #SCMR2024
Look at this slide.
Only 582 physicians for #whyCMR in the USA!
Only 0.2% cardiologists with #whyCMR expertise.
Striking numbers indicating supply/ demand mismatch.
