For patients with #HFmrEF and #HFpEF, Tx with MRA was of high value and #SGLT2i was of intermediate value and should be encouraged in implementation efforts. ARNI is of low value at the current cost. If generic, all are of high value. https://t.co/WU5L2ojrvk #JACCHF

No better way to end a busy cath day with the best company!

[Michael Chen @MC98144]

It’s all 😃 when you get to see and work with @pnw_md and @katieptr who we finally have back @harborviewmc @uwashfellows

[Neal Dixit, MD @NealDixit]

What is a cost-effective GDMT strategy for HFmrEF/HFpEF?

We built a model w/ clinical trial data (TOPCAT, PARAGON-HF, EMPEROR/DELIVER) and simulated outcomes w/ regimens of MRA/SGLT2i/ARNi.

Best 💊 combo?
MRA + SGLT2i

ARNi ⬇️ value at current 💵

Treat HF with urgency!

With the growing interest of #TEER in the tricuspid space...what is its utility in radiation valvulopathy & other #cardioonc sequelae in the cancer survivor?
@UWCardiology ❤️fellow @katieptr presents this dramatic case of cardiogenic shock & interesting hemo findings in @CircHF!

Check out our editorial on the importance of bystander CPR for all cases of out of hospital cardiac arrest just published in @JACCJournals ! Led by my incredible co-fellow @cooperbkersey @uwashfellows

We explore tricuspid TEER in this unique case of #cardioonc associated valvulopathy and constriction. The hemodynamics of this case are 🤯. Thankful for the opportunity by my incredible mentor @datsunian

Check out this 🧵👇🏼 on our recent publication in @CircHF !

With the rise in tricuspid #TEER, what is its efficacy in #cardioonc--w/ ☢️valvulopathy + additional ❤️ sequelae?

@uwashfellows @katieptr (@UCLAHealth IM res) brings this fascinating & challenging case managed by @UCLA_IC @MCalfonPressMD to @CircHF

Thrilled to share this poster with @NealDixit on our work evaluating the cost effectiveness of medical therapies in HFpEF at #ACC2023 ! @gcfmd @boback

Beautiful morning running 10K through campus and supporting @UWalum ! #DawgDashCares @ATT

A special Saturday morning hearing boss women cardiologists share their experiences and stories. Truly inspired! #WIC #ACCDiversity #TheFaceofCardiology @ACCinTouch

[Katie Truong, MD @katieptr]

Very excited to be in the inaugural cohort of the ACC Women’s Internal Medicine program! Looking forward to learning from and meeting #WomenInCardiology mentors. Shoutout to my co-residents who are also representing @uclaimchiefs ! @ACCinTouch

Amazing -- the "First Aid" for the CCU. Simple, concise, and easy to reference.

Excellent critical care reference focusing on cardiogenic shock, PA catheters, acute MCS. Led by @Abraham_Jacob as editor.

Thankful to have learned from clinical masterminds like @AndreMansoor and @PeteSullivanPDx during my training. Hypotheses are generated with the history and PE — it’s just knowing what to ask, and where to look. Also, a plug for https://t.co/CjqljhS4nq.

[André Martin Mansoor @AndreMansoor]

1/9
A middle-age man presents with dyspnea on exertion, orthopnea, and weight gain. His BP is 112/40.

This should generate a hypothesis.

And you begin to test your hypothesis by evaluating for specific physical findings. What do you notice in this video?

Unique, multidisciplinary case of PCI in a pt with progressive angina + Glanzmann Thrombasthenia led by star UCLA IM resident @katieptr! To quote @drmortkern, a “zebra with polka dots” we hope folks learn from! @jcurrier17 @marwahshahid

[Katie Truong, MD @katieptr]

Thank you @rushiparikh11 for the opportunity to write up this super interesting case! Great learning opportunity. 🙏🏼 (3/3)

[Katie Truong, MD @katieptr]

Our complex case of a patient with Glanzmann thrombasthenia🩸& high-grade CAD requiring PCI was published in @JACCJournals today!
⁃ Refresher: GT is a Gp IIb/IIIa receptor deficiency resulting in impaired platelet aggregation (1/3) https://t.co/bcVzhAcmuZ

[Katie Truong, MD @katieptr]

Take aways:
➡️ Unclear if the mech of GT alone has adequate antiplatelet activity in setting of PCI
➡️ Antiplatelet agents such as ASA and P2Y12 inhibitors act on platelet activation
➡️ We propose short term DAPT course with mono therapy after PCI in patients with GT (2/3)

[Katie Truong, MD @katieptr]

Grateful for the opportunity to present this interesting case showing the effects of chemoradiation on the heart leading to LBB pacing! ⚡️

The most common complications of radiation include:
🫀 Ischemic heart dz
🫀 Left sided valvular stenosis
🫀 Pericardial dz

[Eric H Yang, MD @datsunian]

Radiation conduction dz is a known #cardioonc ⌛️sequelae.

⚡️properties & pacing strategies are poorly understood & need more 🔎

@UCLAHealth #bruinhearts IM res @katieptr present the EP properties of a chemoradiation survivor —> #LBBB pacing.
