Pearls of Wisdom from Chetan Shenoy
-NICM-not a Dx- CMR helps
- Reversible causes discovered at transplant from explanted heart that-CMR could have helped.
-ALL NICM should get CMR early in their diagnosis -even if they have to travel to access it.

LVAD recovery happens if we try for it and median survival free of VAD/OHT is 10 years. Great results from the VAD Wean registry presented by Snehal Patel. Adding 10 years to life might be the goal for BTT strategy. More work to be done Stavros George Drakos Manreet Kanwar

Lack of Cardiac response for AL treatment has median survival of 30 months- Medial survival post cardiac transplant for AL patients is 10 years. Why are we not considering OHT in these patients? Mazen Hanna Ashrith Guha Barry Trachtenberg #THT2024

Great case presentation by Varshni Nandakumar on a complex image guided biopsy of a heterotopic heart transplant. Impressive for being a second year med student Texas A&M University and present complex concepts. Future of HF field is bright. #THT2024

Simply put by Sharmila Dorbala “Best way to diagnose Amyloid is to suspect it” Mouaz Al-Mallah, M.D MSc Dipan J. Shah, MD Barry Trachtenberg #BZNamyloid24

It has been an inspiring journey to partner with the Naifeh family who channeled their loss into this energy of a mission to fight against Amyloidosis. A fulfilling day of education to the more than 200 attendees. Endorsed by HFSA

The debate is on - BMT or no BMT for AL Amyloidosis. #BZNamyloid2024
