Interesting #REDUCE_AMI trial results NEJM suggesting that #Beta_blockers do not confer reduction of mortality, hospitalisation or HF events if #LVEF was >50% Mark Petrie British Society for Heart Failure #theFword David Warriner Harriette Van Spall, MD MPH Theresa McDonagh #CardioTwitter doi.org/10.1056/NEJMoa…
#LBBAP #CSP is a great option for all pat w #pacemaker indication but especially for those w #heartfailure and need for pacing. This pacemaker was implanted in a 80 yo pat w dyspnea + vertigo due to AF, HR 30-40, LVEF 40. Skin to skin 40 min CHU de Martinique #Epeeps Weijian Huang John Mandrola, MD
🔑 ACC/AHA/HFSA recommends continuation of HFrEF GDMT despite improvement in LVEF & ESC does not have formal recommendations

🔹What will be ur approach for this #PCI ?
📌Transferred from OSH with this angio. Presented with HF now optimized.
📌82M, significant LMB stenosis, RCA #CTO , LVEF 10-15%, PAD. Turned down for #CABG

Excited to share a review on the use of IV iron in patients with acute and chronic HFrEF. Overall, there was a significant improvement in HRQoL, LVEF, and functional status; as well as a significant reduction in hospitalisation and death.

REDUCE-AMI trial. Long-term beta-blockers may not reduce risk of death post MI, if preserved LVEF ≥50%
Is it too soon to be ‘reductive’ in some pts vs routinely adding beta-blockers for ALL pts post MI? Dr Rani Khatib FESC

Approximately 11% of G+ relatives developed DCM during a median follow-up of 3 years. Older age, an abnormal ECG, lower LVEF, increased LVEDD, motor sarcomeric genetic variants and LGE are associated with a higher risk of developing DCM. JACC Journals

Dr.Patricia Pellikka Jae K. Oh And the strongest evidence that you should be using #echofirst to define LVEF, appropriateness of GDMT, and HF severity.
IE. If there is this much variability in modalities, you should use the modality that was the inclusion criteria for HF trials ... which is mostly #echofirst
