Mashup Score: 1Cardiology Assessment of Patients Undergoing Evaluation for Orthotopic Liver Transplantation - 2 year(s) ago
Orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) is a viable treatment option for end-stage liver disease. Significant perioperative stress is placed on the cardiovascular system because of hemodynamic changes and the length of the operation. Diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease before OLT are imperative to ensure favorable outcomes. Considerable variability exists among practitioners caring…

Mashup Score: 0Incidence of Mortality and Complications in High-Risk Pulmonary Embolism: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis - 2 year(s) ago
The relationship between the early hemodynamic consequences of acute pulmonary embolism (PE) and short-term morbidity and mortality has long been recognized. The mortality incidence and other complications after high-risk (massive) PE, the most severe category of the disease, are summarized in this meta-analysis.

Mashup Score: 0Calling All Fellows and Program Directors: We Need Novel Solutions to Reinvent Interventional Fellowship - 2 year(s) ago
Fellowship training in interventional cardiology represents the last step of a long and arduous educational journey that begins 15 or more years from the start of undergraduate studies. The last stages of training in many fields are often a final consolidation of knowledge or perhaps a clinical research experience wherein trainees feel that they have already surpassed the steep portions of a…

@hahn_rt @ACCinTouch @JACCJournals @SCAI @AHAScience @adnanalkhouli @ColumbiaCardio @HeartValveCntr This is a great document & tremendous effort. As the field expands & technology evolves, it’s difficult for trainees to acquire competencies in all of them within one year though. Here’s @MyJSCAI editorial by @ajaykirtane @MartyBLeon https://t.co/gPIIxvyBlw

There remain nonbelievers in advanced therapy for pulmonary embolism (PE). We the believers yell at them from podiums and from electronic medical records: “right ventricular (RV) to left ventricular (LV) ratio ≥0.9 is an independent predictive factor for in-hospital mortality!”1 or “PE-related mortality at 3 months is 17% if RV/LV ratio is >1.5!”2 Sometimes, they yell back “we have treated these…
