New pub: proud to be a part of this study now published in #EHJ @ESC_Journals led by @JSlivnickMD & @pattypellikka, developing & globally validating an #AI model to differentiate amyloidosis from other LVH using a single #EchoFirst 4ch clip. @ASE360 @EACVIPresident @BidmcCvi
AI screening model accurately differentiates cardiac amyloidosis (CA) from other causes of increased left ventricular wall thickness, which may improve echo CA detection and initiate critical treatment. @DocStrom et al in #EHJ @ESC_Journals bit.ly/4eGs1Ys
New work by Chris Hoeger in our #CardioOnc program @BidmcCvi investigating cardiotoxicity of the commonly used Doxil/Avastin regimen rdcu.be/euyN6 Huge thanks to collaborators @SarjuGanatraMD @DrJESalem and BI team Nathalie Rosas, Reese Pinto, @rkwadhera, Meghan Shea

As a doctor, David knew the risks. As a patient, he struggled to overcome #ResistantHypertension. The BIDMC Complex HTN Clinic w/ @AKrawisz, @EricSecemskyMD & others + #RenalDenervation helped him take control again. bidmc.org/about-bidmc/we…
Modern health care depends on a vast system of digital medical devices for monitoring, treatment, & data management - but cybersecurity compromise in these devices can threaten hospital networks & patient safety. Dr. Dan Kramer et al in @JAMANetwork jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…
Happy to share CSWG's deep dive into IABP use in CS noting differential outcomes with IABP by etiology (MI vs HF) and suggesting acute hemodynamic effects of IABP may differ between these as well @rachkataria @ShashankSinhaMD @JHMontfort10 @manreetkanwar sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

"We are... comfortable with the technology & how patients are responding, as well as identifying pts who are likely to have the greatest impact from (RDN)." @EricSecemskyMD @SmithBIDMC @AKrawisz
Renal Denervation: How We Do It @EricSecemskyMD describes the @BidmcCvi @BIDMC_Medicine Complex Hypertension Program, how to identify appropriate RDN patients, and his approach to the RDN procedure and patient follow-up. hubs.ly/Q03rJwqG0 #cardiotwitter #hypertension
Congratulations! You will be missed!

**Our new study on proteomics in Lamin A/C cardiomyopathy is now out @Circ_Gen ** LMNA DCM is an aggressive form of HF characterized by malignant VT, CHB and ⬆️need for heart transplant. We used proteomics to better understand its biology 👇
Congrats to @BIDMCVascular on receiving the @VascularSVS Dr. Larry Kraiss Quality Award! BIDMC received the award for its commitment to quality vascular care by maintaining a 3-star rating by the SVS's VQI for a minimum of 8 consecutive years. (photo courtesy SVS)

We are thrilled to announce our collaboration with @ACCinTouch to broaden our Renal Denervation Registry to include pts from across the nation, leveraging the #CathPCIRegistry to collect real world data on RDN. @EricSecemskyMD @AKrawisz @rwyeh Learn more: bit.ly/smithaccrdn
Congrats to our @BIDMCVFellows grads! @Omer_Adam2 @laurenbalkan_md Nicolas Isaza @JMKimMD, @ChristinaLalani, Christian Mewaldt, Nicholas Spetko @margot_y, @JRDClarke @gyfjiang Matthew Murphy, Amir Sharon, Aaron Kunamalla, Emad Albayouk, & @WanderleyMauro

In an effort to expand the collection of real-world 📊 on pts undergoing renal denervation (RDN) across 🏥 in the U.S., ACC & @SmithBIDMC are 🤝 on an RDN module that leverages the ACC's #CathPCIRegistry & the Smith Center's RDN Registry. More ➡️ bit.ly/4e8FurF #NCDR
