Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Lifeline: Crisis Management After Minimally Invasive Cardiac Procedures
Q: First of all, what are your worst emergencies that you worry about in these types of cases?
The main concerns are post-operative bleeding (especially port-site bleeding), the possibility of mediastinal or chest-wall hemorrhage, and the need to re-establish access quickly if the heart or major vessels are compromised; these require swift assessment, decision-making about re-entry, and close coordination with nursing and the ICU.
The Lifeline: Crisis Management After Minimally Invasive Cardiac Procedures
Q: So, Dr. Guy, please introduce yourself and say hello to our audience.
I am Sloane Guy, director of minimally invasive and robotic cardiac surgery, with extensive experience in robotic-assisted and endoscopic approaches as well as traditional open surgery, and I'm here to share practical strategies for emergencies in minimally invasive cardiac patients.
The Beat With Joel Dunning Ep. 158: JACC: Case Reports
Q: What kinds of submissions are you seeing and enjoying in JACC Case Reports?
There is a broad spectrum of surgical submissions from around the world, including educational and didactic case reports, complications management, and innovative techniques that provide clear learning messages for readers.
The Beat With Joel Dunning Ep. 158: JACC: Case Reports
Q: As editor-in-chief, tell us about JACC Case Reports and how we can get involved as cardiothoracic surgeons.
JACC Case Reports aims to broaden global readership through case-based learning, offering diverse formats beyond traditional case reports, including How We Did It, Beyond the Guidelines, Flash Debates, and Quality Improvement projects to educate and engage a wide range of clinicians.
The Beat With Joel Dunning Ep. 157: Failed Bioprostheses—The REPEAT Trial
Q: Tell us what Repeat is and why we need this trial?
Repeat is an investigator-initiated international trial comparing redo surgery versus valve-in-valve Tavir for failing bioprostheses, designed to provide clear long-term outcomes to guide decision-making for patients who are eligible for redo surgery or valve-in-valve approaches.
