Extraordinary slide from Milton Packer's wonderful lecture 🤯 What a time to be a #HeartFailure specialist... we just need a lot more of us (doctors, nurses and AHPs) to deliver all the therapies at our disposal. #GDMTworks #BSH2021 #BSHAM2021

@PhilDurkin3 The most frustrating situation is the the patient who has likely entered the last year of their life, where the minimum is <1 month, but the estimated is e.g. 14 months...

@TheTilehurstEnd 7/10 for Pereira... seriously, what do you have to do to score 8, 9 or 10? How can Joel have been rated only 2 points higher than MO'M?? The scale runs from 0 to 10. Yet it seems very rare for anyone to be awarded <5 or >8, now matter how terribly or amazingly they play!

@jtsaxon 'Extreme' doesn't work, as the extreme of a scale implies the end of the scale, i.e. there can't be a higher grade. Why not just call it Grades 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5?

This thread will probably go nowhere. But we should at least make a massive effort to stop using words that don’t mean what we think they mean.

@DrDavidWarriner @Heart_BMJ @sumitku3007 Very interesting ECG finding, but what an utterly bizarre way to write up a case. Why would you do blood tests and an echocardiogram before doing an ECG in someone presenting with syncope and a heart rate of 25 bpm? 🤔

Earlier today one of the BBC's leading stories was about patient harm after heart surgery in Newcastle, the focus upon a single surgeon This highlighted text caught my eye Why? Because we've been here before sadly... 1/3

Hate switching to a new set of trust values. I think I have to stop being nurturing and start being compassionate. And switch from being honest to being trustworthy. Something like that, it's not like these are vapid meaningless buzzwords after all.

@ProfDConnelly Strictly speaking you could just call it foramen ovale, given that it must patent for it to still be a foramen. When it closes it becomes the fossa ovalis.

The correct terminology should be "persistent foramen ovale". Patent = open Foramen = hole. Q: When is a hole not a hole? A: When it's not open. (Am I being pedantic?)

@EJSMD @drjohnm We offer all our ILR patients the choice of explant or leaving it in, and a significant majority choose to have it explanted. So it must be of some psychological value to a significant number of patients to know that it has been removed.

@drjohnm LAAO benefit is plausible, just unproven. Loop explant benefit? Neither proven nor plausible. At least LAAO has a theory. Loop explant just has a scar.

“Wild” is one word for it.. Seems a lot like experimenting on a dying, nursing-home resident w/ nobody to advocate for a their dignified death, for the sake of a social media thread. Heart breaking💔

1/ Wild cardiac arrest with #POCUS playing a major role An elderly male was sent from the nursing home in cardiac arrest. Per the prehospital report that we got, the patient was in vfib and refractory to 5 defib attempts. The patient got amio as well as several doses of epi.

The only diuretic that has demonstrated to reduce mortality is... 3% saline? A 🧵 TLDR: it's not about sodium (for once).
