Excited for this collaboration and to build on the work @CardioNerds and others (@AnnGageMD @jameshorowitzmd @JasonKatzMD @AndreaElliottUM among many others) have already been doing for years - taking education in cardiac critical care out of its silos! @RanLeeMD @PennyRampersad

Proud to see @rcstarling receive the incredibly well deserved Lifetime Achievement Award from #HFSA. Dr. Starling was one of the main reasons I found my way into Heart Failure and I’m grateful to continue to work with him - congratulations! #HFSA2023

Transitioning from #ACHD to #CCC - #CCCES24 continues - excited for the announcement of Society of Critical Care Cardiology with @JasonKatzMD as inaugural president - critical to organize and collaborate to confront the challenges facing our specialty.

Had a blast running ECMO disaster scenarios all day with @PennyRampersad including this superstar multidisciplinary group with CCC/AHFTC fellow @zilgiovineMD representing #TeamWean and PCCM fellow @AparnaBhatMD for #TeamCrankItUp ! Outstanding course run by Dr. Sudhir Krishnan.

Excited to share our perspective in @JCardFail on Schrodinger’s Shock - an underappreciated challenge in conduction of cardiogenic shock trials - grateful to my co authors @AnnGageMD @seanvandiepen and @JasonKatzMD as well as to @ShashankSinhaMD for mentorship on the piece!

The @CleClinicHVTI symposium on Evolving Concepts in HF Treatment and Recovery - absolutely packed for this agenda. Great to see @AmitGoyalMD on home turf again with @tavrkapadia and @rcstarling heading an all star line up! #HFSA2023 So many familiar faces reuniting too.

Outstanding primer on ECMO by @RanLeeMD - another great noon conference highlighting the importance of patient selection, continuous monitoring, and troubleshooting - increasingly important as use proliferates @venumenon10 @CCFcards @vbluml @carmonarubio #MiriamJacob

Incredibly proud to see @ramontgo presenting OSPREY, the investigator initiated RCT of oral sodium loading he conducted during his fellowship @ CCF. Null hypothesis supported - adds to the growing literature challenging old dogma about inpatient sodium restriction @CCFcards

Proud to see @RanLeeMD holding court on a topic near and dear - TMCS for the failing RV. Great review of the distinct hemodynamic impact of direct (e.g, ProtekDuo) vs indirect (e.g, VA ECMO) RV unloading. Missing @PennyRampersad! #CritCareCards22

It doesn’t feel like a CCU conference until @venumenon10 and @JasonKatzMD take the stage - tackling the always challenging intersection between cardiogenic and septic shock @HoustonShockHSS #HSS23
