Simply the Best
I have been an active listener throughout my cardiology fellowship (since episode 1). I love the variety of episodes with guideline summaries, and case reports being my favourite. The information is of the highest quality and delivered in a clear way. Highly recommended for all cardio nerds regardless of your level of training.

It would be MUCH better without the lengthy introductions and strange, seemingly scripted banter that said the content is great. But..we get it. You’re physicians. You’ve done stuff. You *probably* doesn’t need to take up so much time patting each other on the back.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

444. Heart Failure: LVAD Part 2 with Dr. Mark Belkin and Dr. Chris Salerno

Q: How do pump parameters relate to LVAD assessment in the ICU?

Four core parameters are monitored: flow (L/min), speed (RPM), pulsatility index (PI), and pump power (watts); these, along with the pressure gradients, help interpret LVAD performance and guide decisions about volume status, inotropy, and potential device-related issues.

444. Heart Failure: LVAD Part 2 with Dr. Mark Belkin and Dr. Chris Salerno

Q: What are the key components of immediate postoperative management after LVAD implantation?

Protect the right ventricle by using adequate MAC to perfuse the RV, avoid overvolume, optimize metabolic status, manage rhythm, monitor for bleeding and tamponade, and perform rapid neuro checks to detect stroke; an RV protection strategy was developed with an algorithmic approach using inhaled nitric oxide, preload targets, MAP goals, and echo assessments.

443. Pulmonary Embolism: The Modern Approach to Pulmonary Embolism Care with Dr. Kenneth Rosenfield

Q: Why did you create the Pulmonary Embolism Response Team, and what evidence or outcomes have supported the PERT model since its inception?

The team was formed to address variation in care and delays in escalation by bringing together multiple disciplines to rapidly assess and treat PE. Over time, a growing body of data, the establishment of a centralized database, and the development of centers of excellence have supported the PERT model as a way to standardize care and improve outcomes.

443. Pulmonary Embolism: The Modern Approach to Pulmonary Embolism Care with Dr. Kenneth Rosenfield

Q: Could you start by telling our listeners a little bit about your clinical background and how your work led to focus on pulmonary embolism and the development of the PERT model?

Dr. Rosenfield described a long career in vascular medicine where multidisciplinary teams were first built at his institution. A pivotal pregnancy-related case inspired him to assemble a team of diverse specialists to manage PE more effectively, which evolved into the Pulmonary Embolism Response Team (PERT) and ultimately the PERT Consortium to advance care nationwide.

440. Heart Failure: Post-Heart Transplant Management with Dr. Shelly Hall and Dr. MaryJane Farr

Q: How should routine surveillance for heart transplant patients be approached?

It varies from program to program, with protocols typically more intense within the first year.
