Researchers at @UPMC_CTSurgery analyzed the @STS_CTsurgery adult #cardiac surgery database to review outcomes of surgery after ATAAD between 2017 & 2021. They found high-volume centers had lower operative mortality than low-volume centers. Read in #JTCVS: https://t.co/j94LtjDveV

Publicy Funded Research and Clinical Relevance Thinking about today’s tweets-the overlap between 2 concepts I tweeted about became apparent. There is precious little evidence to support much of what we do clinically. The NIH funds few studies that directly inform clinical

Outcomes analysis of the STS adult cardiac surgery database shows low-volume centers treating Acute Type A Aortic Dissection patients are associated with higher failure-to-rescue rates 🔗 https://t.co/po5GnHKH0L @HviUpmc @IbrahimSultanMD @AATSJournals #ATAAD #AorticDissection
