A Thread summarizing my recent PGY-2 talk: "Advanced Cardiopulmonary Echocardiography: Managing the Critically Ill Patient with Decompensated Pulmonary Hypertension and RV Failure" (1/5).

Excited to share that I’ll be coming home to Tampa, FL to complete my Cardiology fellowship. Looking forward to this next step in my career. ☀️🌴🫀 @USFCardiology #USF #cardiology #criticalcare #RV #PH @XavierPrida

Talking to independent physicians, it's obvious that the big insurance carriers are doing to them, what their PBMs are doing to independent pharmacies. They deny, underpay, slow pay, clawback, and create administrative mazes, knowing their victims don't have the time or

If you did not notice it: Pericardiocentesis in AMI patients with free wall rupture is not only ineffective, but harmful. In the SHOCK trial, it was associated with 50% mortality...

@DrMiguelIbarra1 Switching to PC-CSVs (aka, "presssure support") solved the problem. If we are strict with the definitions, the obvious in this patient "work shifting" was not a dyssynchrony ("early cycling" is a dyssynchrony)

Systolic reversal of the left hepatic vein: During systole, the ventricle contracts and the tricuspid annulus moves toward the cardiac apex. Blood regurgitates retrograde through the tricuspid valve into the atrium, IVC, and hepatic veins. The result is a retrograde S wave.

Pericardiocenteses are a cornerstone of our training program. Day and night our fellows are performing these life-saving interventions under the careful instruction of @RanLeeMD and @AndrewHigginsMD! There is simply no experience like this. @CleClinicHVTI @venumenon10
