So much specialisation and innovation in this amazing centre. Mater ECMO with @Mater_ICU . Access to the suite of advanced heart failure interventions with @joyce_emer and the team. A huge advanced EP service with @john_keaney and colleagues. I’m biased, but it’s phenomenal!

@IRajapreyar @docbhardwaj @YevgeniyBr @RyanTedfordMD @AHajduczok @BiykemB @EugeneStorozyn6 No one size fits all - So many factors to consider such as 1) overall burden of disease (cardiac & extracardiac) 2) EF (still down due to scar / late diagnosis?) 3) tolerability (current & anticipated) of each agent 4) anticipated side effect burden/balance eg fertility wishes

AF is prevalent in our LVAD population - its relationship to early post implant outcomes as shown in this paper raises many interesting questions but perhaps more importantly alleviates some concerns about #LVAD and (early) stroke risk in this group @vbluml
