Continuous-flow ventricular assist devices (CF-VADs) are used increasingly in pediatric end-stage heart failure patients. Read this Original Article on long-term kidney outcomes implicated in the evolution of CKD w/prolonged CF-VAD support. https://t.co/cSOMBXOCnL

Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) therapies in children w/ medically refractory cardiac failure have increased over the past 2 decades. Read this Educational Review of current MCS technologies, approaches to their selection, distinctive features & more. https://t.co/xT8h1HK68R

Our most recent work out as early access in JASN @aidrovomd @BCMPedsRenal @sjmswartz Preserved Cerebral Oxygenation with Worsening Global Myocardial Strain during Pediatric Chronic Hemodialysis

So proud of our team! @aidrovomd @AkcanArikan @sjmswartz

In pediatric patients on hemodialysis, myocardial strain worsens during dialysis despite an unchanged ejection fraction, and is associated with blood volume change. This study shows that cerebral oxygenation appears to be preserved during hemodialysis https://t.co/eUbK1kqvG0

So proud of our graduating fellows Dr.Yonique Petgrave, Dr. Joseph Alge and Dr.Alexandra Idrovo #bcmhouston @PetgraveYonique @algejl @aidrovomd PS: Picture was taken Pre-COVID!!!
