Many times the reaction by everyone is “we must do more” - but there are consequences to any intervention. Careful consideration is advised. Great reminder by Dr Kim @ACCinTouch
A lot of chatter re: 'mandated screening echos' for athletes. A topic considered by experts. Please do not endorse this, will not save athlete lives. US guidelines here to reference. @KirkHerbstreit @ProFootballDoc @AlbertBreer @ACCinTouch @American_Heart

Progress on banning physician non-competes in Indiana! @Cardiology @inacc @SrihariNaiduMD @himavidula @drdavemd @sxz110 "'When a physician tries to negotiate a noncompete clause, the answer is take it or leave the state,' he said. https://t.co/sVbtcCoxjL

Dr Anthony DeMaria great presentation on age in CV medicine. Admits he is “chronically challenged” but so what? 70 is new 50! Cognitive testing discriminatory and has no evidence representative of competence. #ACC25 @ACCinTouch

The always inspiring @drtravisbatts speaks at a Federal Cardiology meeting. We have challenges but we are up to the task. Defend our TIRF (spelled correctly) #ACC25 @ACCinTouch

This is why they call it the ENGAGE stage. Drs Andrea Elliott and Ben Keninsberg discuss cardiac arrest 👮 in an entertaining fashion. #ACC25 @ACCinTouch

Great Beckers Conference on ASC and I appreciate the opportunity. While Ortho has been in this site for many years - Cardiology is a growing trend. As always -we can learn from others.
