Always cool to see your co-intern @JLmaigrotMD featured! .Such a neat topic, and a great approach! Instead of arguing about which is better, focus on mastering a toolkit to provide the best options for each patient you take care of.

Superstar applicant. Not surprised he is making a good impression on the ct surg community on aways. Someone to look for on the interview trail this fall!.
Did you know we offer a sub-internship program for medical students to gain exposure to CT surgery? Current sub-i Ben Hauser is looking forward to quality mentorship, expanding clinical experience, developing procedural skills, and learning as much as possible from the CT team.

This offers some really interesting insight into one mechanism of PGD. Transcriptomic and multi-omic clues may lead us to a better understanding of the pathophysiology of PGD. We have so much to learn! The future of organ preservation is bright! #transplant #Heart #omics.
This study reveals #SherpaPak temperature-controlled heart preservation maintains metabolic homeostasis & modulates gene expression to potentially reduce primary graft dysfunction for better #transplant outcomes. #OrganPreservation @UTSWHear, @GauravSharmaPhD, @matthias_peltz.

Mentorship is so important. Identifying good mentors can be tough, but this post does an excellent job highlighting the value it adds to students’ education. While it can come from a formal opportunity, sometimes luck and serendipity can produce amazing mentorships too.
“He gave me a real roadmap—no fluff, just truth.” Read how one medical student, @jadelharake, gained direct and honest direction from his mentor in CT surgery. Read more: #CTsurgery #CTcareers

Interesting data here. Brings up a lot of questions as well about how changes in allocation can improve survival. Important to consider how devices shuffle transplant candidates, and how we can ensure optimal utilization of organs in the world of different preservation tools.
New paper in #JACCHF by Drs. @StrattonTolmie, @WF_Parker, et al discusses the net survival benefit of the 2018 #HeartTx allocation system. One definitive success: improved allocation to higher acuity pts vs prior system. More work to be done!. 🔗 @UChicago

So excited to see what kind of innovation comes out of these novel LVAD designs! The future of durable heart failure therapy is bright!.
A major randomized trial is underway to compare an investigational LVAD with the only LVAD currently on the U.S. market for treatment of advanced heart failure:

Not shocked at all to see @dan_lehane1 winning awards already!.
It was an honor to rub shoulders with some of the greats of vascular surgery and represent @urvascularsurg at the University Club in NYC. Thank you, Dr. Ascher for the opportunity to present and @mstonermd & PGY-3 Josh Geiger for your support!

Choosing anticoagulation in ECMO is challenging, but in the setting of LV venting devices, patients may face additional risk of thrombosis. We need to work to improve our anticoagulation strategies for these patients to maximize the safety of MCS and minimize bleeding risk.

I can’t say a big enough thank you to @igor_igorgosev @kwood_md and @KazuHisamoto for all your mentorship, support, and guidance. I could never have done it alone. It takes a village, and I’ve been lucky to have such great guidance along the way to keep me on track!.
