Cardiogenic shock → low CO & end-organ hypoperfusion. LV failure is common, but don’t miss other causes: valvular disease, mechanical MI complications, or RV failure. A systematic approach + bedside echo can rapidly guide diagnosis and escalation.🫀 🔗 bit.ly/4uPBSTs

Left Ventricular Unloading in High-Risk Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: @NEJM 🥸 Does ventricular unloading among patients with severely impaired left ventricular function undergoing complex PCI reduced MACE events at 12 months? 😱 Let's summarize CHIP-BCIS3? 👇👇👇👇

An important trial to consider when reducing pill burden and medication side effects, & a very nice addition to include QoL! Hope to see QoL assessed in more large trials to come 💊✨ #ACC26

Enjoying dinner in NOLA with my coresidents. I am going to miss these people next year. Here is to many #ACC meetings together to come 😭🫶

Always grateful for the support of my research mentor @abubaker9696 and the opportunity to advocate for women’s CV health. Thank you to everyone who stopped by! #WIC #choosecardiology @ACCinTouch @ACCmediacenter

🚨 New research being presented at #ACC26 by @AlexMillhuffDO shows an alarming trend: deaths linked to high blood pressure in women aged 25-44 have increased more than 4x since 1999. Experts warn risks in young women may be overlooked. #Hypertension bit.ly/4uFC9bi

In families w/ hereditary #ATTR, cascade screening ID’d 2 carriers/proband—but 1/3 of at-risk relatives went untested. A call to strengthen family genetic screening. Via @dr_pavia @JACCJournals 🧬 ow.ly/hbT050XLBbB #KSACC #Cardiology #JACCCardioOnc

I wish that med students had to rotate for a day with bedside nurses... lab orders that trickle in over hours, sliding scale insulin for non-diabetic patients, unnecessarily frequent vitals. We know so little of what the clicks of buttons mean for nurses or how hard they work.

Holiday season in the hospital 🫀🎄

Incredibly honored and humbled to continue my medical training at @KUCVM for cardiology fellowship!🫀🌻 #MatchDay #cardiologyfellowship #fellowshipmatch2025
