@DRBAHLER @WMCCardsFellows @DrSubratDas @ShazliKhanMD @MahmoudSamyMD @TanyaSh112 @YerazKhachatoo1 @WMCHealth Congratulations! As a former fellow of Dr. Dutta I can tell you it is an incredible honor and I’m sure well deserved.

@ParijatSen11 I agree. Systems based may not miss details but the overall picture seems to get fragmented.
I personally use a one liner summary
X admitted with septic shock secondary to pneumonia followed by a systems based breakdown. Same format in note and presentation in rounds.

I hesitate to reply on Twitter where nuance goes to die, but, a few points on this thread by JM et al focusing in on Watchman as that's an area I feel comfortable with the data and history. Let's start with a few stipulations:

[Hasan Khan @mhasan87]

@ZaidAbdelsattar @georgetolisjr That's an over simplification of the problem. There a lots of IMGs for instance who have tons of publications to improve their chances of matching into a competitive specialty but little interest in becoming a physician scientist.

@edward_traver @BradSpellberg Constantine only decreed the Roman week to consist of 7 days. 7 day weeks go back to pre-Babylonian days.

@JulietaMadridMD Some of us just don't go home for years.

@hagmonk @nickmmark This is how you'd answer in medical school when you had no idea.

@AaronGoodman33 Listening and communicating is an essential but not the sole requirement to be a good doctor. You still need to know things.

@schmidt_doc Cleared for endoscopy

@ann87057515 @WAAMBMEDIC Clearly you haven't seen the efficiency of medical practice in India

[Hasan Khan @mhasan87]

@ahmsolmd @djc795 @drjhatch Sounds like a very efficient system.

[Hasan Khan @mhasan87]

@ahmsolmd @djc795 @drjhatch I would counter that it's probably not the best plan to hold the patient on the table for as long as it takes for an IC to drop everything they are doing and come there.

@Almanfi_Cardio How do you decide who is at very high risk of disabling stroke?

@YashAgrawalMD @mmamas1973 @drrahulpsharma @SVRaoMD @GreggWStone @RealKushAgrawal @DrAmirKaki @agtruesdell @LAzzaliniMD @NeilGheewalaMD I would've answered this but you didn't tag me 😄

Did you know that the on-screen tragedy of the Bollywood queens Madhubala, Meena Kumari and Mala Sinha that tugged at the emotion of Indians through the 40’s and 50’s is strangely connected to a relatively obscure sport of the time, Cycling? A thread. 1/13

@Umair2017 @BCMHeart @ozlembilen2 @aayshacader @Hragy @NephroP @ZainAsadEP @Pooh_Velagapudi @UjjwalRastogiMD @AKUGlobal @SanChris999 Isn't it just better to think in terms of SV/CO/CI?LVEF is often misunderstood and misused by non-cardiologists and LVOT EF, while catchy, is introducing another imperfect measurement instead of focusing on more education on traditional hemodynamic parameters.

[Hasan Khan @mhasan87]

@ShivaniM_KC Not sure what's more controversial. Ranking dosa so low or calling it a flat bread?
