Yes!
More than 20% RV apical pacing and I’d want to upgrade to CRT. Similar with frequent PVCs that are amenable to catheter ablation in HF patients.
Nice one, from @drg.bsky.social and @jamesheathers.bsky.social

Yes. There has been work in the UK trying to increase organ donation among black and minority ethnic groups. Cultural touchpoints such as places of worship have been important.

Yes. Although organ sharing networks in the US and Europe mean that donor organs tend to move city.
Five years ago today, most historical UK monthly rainfall observations were not available to scientists.
But the 66,000 pieces of paper containing the data had been scanned.
With covid lockdown approaching we saw an opportunity to transcribe the data.

Huge impact. The waiting list for organ transplants in the city of Recife was reduced to zero in the first year #ISHLT2025

It's #ISHLT2025 Pre-Conference day! More than 490 medical professionals have come together to dive deeper into #CardiogenicShock, #LungTransplantation, #LungFailure, #CTEPH, and #HealthEquity topics with experts from around the world. 💡🌏
It was great. I smile every time I pass the incubator that’s been built on the Cambridge biomedical campus.
Totally agree about importance of clinical examination. But why do you need a stethoscope to detect the most important driver of type 2 cardio-renal syndrome? Examine the neck veins! #JVP
Agree.
All the physiological variables that contribute to shock are continuous. Need to move beyond categorisation.
Thanks buddy. It’s been a big effort to get EVLP up/running. Marius and Jas have done all the heavy lifting. 👏👏👏
Very proud of my colleagues who pushed hard to get the UK’s first clinical programme of EVLP up and running.

Reference four is priceless. I did not know OFCOM published this list.
I was today years old when I found this gem of a web app to explore 2500+ color palettes for R:

This was a fun study leveraging social media to demonstrate the high prevalence in Impella malrotation among cases shared on old Twitter.
If it's malrotated, but it works well, without suction alarms or other problems, do you change it? #cccsky #cardiosky #emimcc

Important question.
We keep SGLT2i going in patients who are supported with inotropes and waiting for an urgent heart transplant. But we tend to stop in those on temporary MCS.
I’ve been looking to diagnose euglycaemic ketoacidosis for ages, but just not seen it yet.
