An incredible time in Naples, learning from the legends of clinical trials.
Thanks @GianluSava and Heart Failure Association for this opportunity.

🔥New Scientific Statement from #HFA & #HFAI: SGLT2 inhibitors for the prevention & treatment of #HeartFailure

Key recommendations across the HF spectrum:
📍At risk for HF: ⬇️HF events in patients with #T2DM & #CKD, initiate #SGLT2i
📍Post-AMI: ⬇️HFh alone, consider in high-risk patients
📍Symptomatic chronic HF: ⬇️HFh & #CVdeath across LVEF, start early
📍Acute/worsening HF: early benefit on HF events & mild decongestion, initiate inpatient & have 💊 on board before discharge
📍Specific populations (#ATTRCM, #ACHD): observational data suggest safety & potential benefit

@alexsfelixecho Considering the clinical picture, I would suspect infective endocarditis (IE) first. The aortic regurgitant jet may have caused endothelial injury in septum, predisposing to bacterial adhesion/ endocarditis. Nice images, thanks for sharing.

@alex1708ander @ASE360 @iamritu @NMerke One clip is attached only to the anterior leaflet (SLD). Is there a clip attached to IAS?! Almost crossing the transeptal puncture site…

Care involving a #heartfailure specialist during an admission for HF ➡️ increased rates of #GDMT, decreased diuretics, lower in-hospital and long-term mortality, especially in #HFrEF, although across all #LVEF. https://t.co/kPxLXZvrTy

Mitral TEER with 2 Pascal Ace in an octogenarian patient with a large P2 flail and severe mitral regurgitation. #echofirst #echocardiography #TEER

[Antonio Correia @ACechocardio]

@NMerke Excellent! However, if you don’t have 3DTTE, would you rely only on LVEF/SV estimated by 2D echo (Simpson)? I think it adds a degree of imprecision…

[Antonio Correia @ACechocardio]

@alexsfelixecho Nice images. A comprehensive review of amyloidosis echo findings in just a few seconds👏🏻.

@VDelgadoGarcia @IcorCat @EACVIPresident @PhilipsHealth @echo_stepbystep Impressive! 3D echo definitely overcoming the limitations of 2D Pisa
