I’ve seen notes from the 80s they were…succinct

@RichardAFerraro I think that the exam skills have diminished w each generation; therefore, we don’t have the teachers who CAN teach it.
Trainees certainly got up earlier and worked longer days in previous generations, so I can’t attribute it to that.

Two observations from a cardiologist who has always believed in the physical exam:
1. Residents and fellows will sometimes look at you as if you’re doing a party trick.
2. Even when I do a focused, cursory exam of a patient, patients tell me that it is the most thorough physical examination that they have had in years.

This work is close to my heart ❤️
I’m grateful to join colleagues from @HFSA & @ASPCardio on the 1st joint scientific statement reframing #FunctionNotFailure care—seeing the whole person, across their entire healthspan --- NOT as fragmented problems in silos.🧘♀️
From “at-risk” to advanced HF—prevention must be woven into every stage!
Grateful to @DrMarthaGulati & 🌟colleagues for sharing this vision.
