Joanna Rock (Catalano)

March of Dimes SWFL Representing CardioOB for @leehealthheart ! #goredforwomen #acccardioOB @shantellebart88

Great presentation from cardioOB trailblazer @SabhaBhatti Say yes to echo! #ACCCardioOB

@MKaldas When in the area of the upper vein, slowly pull the probe in and out until you see the flash of red in the area you expect. It's tricky and everyone's anatomy is different. Slow deliberate movements and attempting to see it every time is the best strategy; Practice makes perfect!

@joannarockdo What is your approach to get such a clear image of the left lower pulmonary vein ?

Another pulmonary vein finding, this time elevated velocities! 115cm/s in the left lower PVein consistent with stenosis. This person had history of AFib ablation in the past and the TEE was routine before their second ablation. It is important to hunt for all 4! 🫀#cardiotwitter

We know low dose aspirin can prevent pre-eclampsia... Interesting conversation about universal aspirin in pregnant women from a public health standpoint. #ACCCardioOB

I took a hiatus but am now back! Starting off with this VSD. Heard a loud murmur for a routine pre-op clearance, "no known cardiac history". #echofirst #womenincardiology #Cardiology #CardioTwitter

@PaulNWilliamz @PennStHershey You AND @aliachisty are there?! 🤯🤯

The OG Alfieri stitch, precursor to mitraclip. First time ever seeing a patient with one and I got to do the TEE. Characteristic owls eyes we also see with mitraclip 🤓🫀🦉 #echofirst #accfit #cardiotwitter @SabhaBhatti

@AZviman Hahaha you mean the school I didn't graduate from?... Yup

A good case of LVOTO from SAM of the MV. My first time seeing a case this severe #echofirst #cardiotwitter

A still from the video

Great pictures

A nice gesture from our noninvasive schedulers 🥰 happy doctor day!

@AZviman @ASE360 It's interesting because in fellowship we usually did TG first if we were doing our own moderate sedation. Now at MMC every TEE has anesthesia support and the fellows are telling me I'm the only one 🤷🏻‍♀️

I'm just curious. Who starts their TEE in the stomach? I understand they're the most uncomfortable for the patient so to try to do them when the patients most sedated (i.e. the beginning). But no one does this? Why not? #echofirst @ASE360

Very mild posterior tricuspid valve leaflet impingement by pacemaker lead. Very satisfying and happy to say @morristownheart fellow acquired! #echofirst #accfit

@ppsengupta1 @RWJUH @RWJUHheadRN @RWJMS @RutgersRWJcards @RWJBarnabas @amypmurtha Way to go! He was so helpful as a fellow! 🥳

Culture of change—inclusiveness, diversity and respect in workplace—starts with kindness and appreciation—congratulations Neerav Kumar for being the employee of month @RWJUH Noninvasive Lab (Cardiology!) Together we celebrate our values to bring ‘patients and institution’ first!

@AZviman @david_furfaro @PulmPEEPs @KMonty_MD Yas that big girl is taking charge! Love to see it

@SabhaBhatti @AJamilTajik @nicvd_karachi 😱 a gradient of 80 is compatible with life??

40 yo F with HCM with NYHA class 11 symp, SAM, MR, gradient incr with valsalva from 60->80 . OSH had asked to decrease fluid intake n placed on diuretic 😳 That's the first thing we changed @AJamilTajik @nicvd_karachi

@Gabby_Brauner27 I changed mine! It was important to me to have a cohesive family name for my children. Everyone can have an opinion but only you are living your life

Respectfully, it’s not a discussion. I’m just sharing my decision and my experiences. To each their own 😊
