Nice cannulation strategy helpful to avoid aortic hematomas during #TANRP

UCH ECMO RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP . . . See screenshot for more details. Reach out to @AVR_MVR and @MichaelTCainMD if interested.

Nice take on the recent expansion of the donor pool for all organs

Josh and his family have overcome a lot to get to where he is today. Here is his story: gofund.me/cbc9bdd5

A Contemporary Analysis of DCD Transplantation in the US! Out now in @amjtransplant 1st Cost Comparison of NRP vs Ex-Situ NMP! "By conservative estimates, we found that approximately 31 donor allografts could be procured using DCD-NRP for the cost equivalent of one allograft procured via DCD-SRR with ex-situ NMP." Here's what we talk about and why this sets the standards for future studies in this space.

A fascinating look at the finances of procurement methods . . .

Awesome international collaboration!

The mom that ran in and saved her kids after being handcuffed in Uvalde finally spoke out.

Amazing. In contrast, Putin would be most afraid of his own soldiers in Ukraine! Dictators always end up being more afraid of their own people than of any supposed enemies, and with good reason. twitter.com/ChristopherJM/…

Very impressive ECMO case series here at Vanderbilt. @MatthewBacchet1 @AshShahMD @VUMCTransplant @VUMC_ECMO

Best way to end a morning run . . .

From our group . . . How we do it “DCD procurement using the NRP technique.” @AshShahMD

Spot on editorial about “The Inconvenient Ventricle” The phrase was coined by Dr Stevenson and as usual she is right. @AVR_MVR @menachem_j From @jaccjournals jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.…

The incredibly gifted @TragicDarling is documenting the entire transplant experience. It’s more than just the post transplant victory lap. Follow her and we’ll all be better for it. @menachem_j @VUMCTransplant

@okusanyamd I’m going to have to figure out how to do this!

Not gonna lie. Being able to see images on mobile Epic is great.

@CDemarest_MDPhD @VUMC_ECMO Never seen so many people excited about lungs 🫁 🫁 🫁

Reason #618171827868 why our ECMO fellowship (done during “lab time” of residency) is the absolute best experience out there. Bar none. CT fellow + ECMO fellow + me (the proud mama) giving my support with a 👍🏼 and some heckling = recipe for success. @VUMC_ECMO

@smccarneyMD @kashishgoelmd @VUMC_ECMO @vumcvalve @VUMChealth Same set up as for my PTE cases without the cooling. I make separate left and right PA incisions and use short periods of low flow. The left side clot burden was much less compared to the right.

@AVR_MVR @kashishgoelmd @VUMC_ECMO @vumcvalve @VUMChealth Great case. So the RPA cast pictured was done open? If so how did you mobilize the distal branches like that?

Nice collaboration with @kashishgoelmd to rescue a sick patient with large clot burden in a patient with #COVID19. Clot in transit, #angiovac, instability requiring #ecmo, then OR. @VUMC_ECMO @vumcvalve @VUMChealth
