Happy to share our #ThePeoplesVentricle review out today in @NEJM . We hope this is approachable and useful for all physicians, not just RV experts. Very appreciative of the collaboration with @Brian_Houston12 & #EvanBrittain . @MUSC_Cardiology @MUSChealth

Right Ventricular Failure | NEJM

The authors discuss the mechanisms, clinical presentation, and evaluation of right ventricular failure, as well as its management.

Do you love hemodynamics & RHCs? @ShengFuMD @chakri0012 & I do too! BUT, hemodynamic evaluation of donor hearts may not be helpful. Abnormal hemos, particularly high filling pressures, did not correlate w/ post-transplant outcomes in our UNOS analysis.
