A 🧵on STRONG-HF 💪🏾🫀

⭐️The first randomized trial to show the immense benefits of a comprehensive high-intensity med-titration program with #HF GDMT

❓How did the investigators achieve an 8.1% ARR in HFH/mortality at 6 months❓

Let’s see what we can learn 👇🏾🧵 Image
First let’s take a look at the inclusion and exclusion criteria.

You’ll note:
👉🏾must have SBP > 100, HR >60, K <5.0, GFR > 30
-this eliminates many patients unlikely to tolerate aggressive titration

At baseline still a sick cohort:
-66% NYHA 3 or more
-avg NT-proBNP 7110 Image
Next we see what they aimed for

✌🏽Half doses at discharge

✊🏽Full doses by week 2

And these were high guideline directed target doses e.g.:
-Carvedilol 50 BID
-Spironolactone 50 qd
-Enalapril 20 BID (👀)
-S/V 97/103 BID Image

@JACCJournals
There was consistent benefit from TEER with MitraClip across all risk strata

FMR and HF pts are at ⬆️ risk for ☠️ and recurrent HFH, despite best Med Rx & invasive Tx including MV TEER

Today marks the start of #WHA75!

This week, @WHO, Ministries of Health, civil society, & more will discuss #GlobalHealth priorities.

Missing on agenda? #GlobalSurgery & 🫀 care.

Hence, I'll be sharing key points, papers, & developments in #GlobalCardiacSurgery in 75 tweets 👇 Image
(1/75) To start, what *is* #GlobalCardiacSurgery?

GCS extends far beyond OR, from community-based disease detection & efficient referral networks to timely care, long-term follow-up, robust supply chains & adequate financial risk protection. #WHA75

Read: academic.oup.com/ejcts/article/… Image
(2/75) Why does #GlobalCardiacSurgery matter?

⚠️ Every year, 18 million people die from #CVD

🫀 500 million live with CVD; 100s of millions more to come.

🏥 Up to 1/3 will require #CTSurgery or interventional care in lifetime

1️⃣ Variability in #CAD testing for pts with new-onset heart failure #HF

Prevalence of CAD is 50-60% in HF.

Only 35% of pts underwent CAD testing (21% coronary angiogram) during the 90 days before and after initial HF diagnosis, and 9% underwent revasc.

jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.…
2️⃣ Pts who underwent CAD testing were more likely to be younger, male, and have systolic dysfunction.
Significant social disparities: CAD testing was used less in women and Black pts.
3️⃣ Pts managed by a cardiologist were more likely to undergo CAD testing, compared with those managed by a PCP (57% vs. 16%; aOR 5.12). However, great variations across cardiologists, as well as across US regions.
