Why the number of cases of #HeartAttack have increased significantly ?

A man died of #CardiacArrest during a Haldi ceremony at Kalapathar area.

A police constable Vishal (24) died, allegedly due to a #cardiac arrest during a workout at a gym in Bowenpally area.

#Hyderabad twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

A 19 yr old Muthyam died, reportedly of #CardiacArrest, collapsed while he was dancing in a wedding reception at Pardi K village in Kubeer mandal of #Nirmal dist.
He was shifted to the hospital where the doctor declared him brought dead.

#HeartAttack #heartattack2023
#Telangana

Another #HeartAttack,
A 38 yr old Shyam collapsed while playing badminton, in #Hyderabad.
In visuals people take turns to check if he is breathing, If life-saving #CPR had been administered early, he would have probably been alive.
Need awareness on CPR for all.

Empagliflozin is now my go-to SGLT2i for pts with #diabetes and #CKD or #CHF, over cana or dapa or ertu.

Why?

A: EMPA-KIDNEY: nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
and EMPEROR-Reduced and EMPEROR-Preserved
1/

EMPA-KIDNEY is unique because it enrolled GFR 20-45 *without* proteinuria whereas others (DAPA CKD, CANVAS) enrolled pts with CKD+proteinuria, though DAPA-CKD conducted a subgroup analysis for UACR < and > 1000

The primary outcome was a composite of progression of #kidney disease (defined as #ESRD, a sustained decrease in eGFR to <10, a sustained decrease in eGFR of ≥40% from baseline, or death
from #renal causes) or death from #cardiovascular causes

🧵 #LivingLongCovid

Some maybe already know me probably% and maybe my story.

I am a #HealthCareWorker and since before and at the beginning of #COVID19 I have worked in the #ICU saving lives and learning about #IntensiveCare

I've had #COVID19 3 times so far this pandemic.

I developed #LongCovid from my 2nd contagion that was serious at the time, I required hospitalization in #ICU and oxygen therapy.
Since Dec 2020 I have lived with #LongCovid since then and when I understood the Multi-organic gravity of #LongCovid

I SURVIVED!
And I still do it daily.

A few days ago I had a 2nd #InfarctionSilent a year ago I had a multiorgan failure accompanied by #infarctionSilente

We know that #COVID19 can cause #myocarditis and that is possibly the case, I don't know yet.

I tell you now.

How #sleep loss may make physical #exercise more challenging for the #heart:

#RegulatoryCapture

Prior to intro. of user fees in 1994, #HealthCanada was solely funded by tax dollars - therefore accountable to the public. By 2018, approx. 50% of #HealthCanada’s budget came from #Pharma. Quietly announced in Oct 2017 was intention to increase to 90%.

On May 27, 2021, Dr. Patrick Phillips was asked if the data in Canada's adverse event system can be trusted. He replied "absolutely not" & suggested #VAERS may be more reliable. However, "HHS’s own studies indicate that VAERS may be understating vaccine injuries by OVER 99%."

#YesCCT : Clinical reporting & understanding finance by @docjuanb at #SCCT2021 . There are reimbursement challenges . #Cardiac CT is in the wrong Ambulatory Payment Classification (APC). Bill also must be supported by clinical symptom & diagnostic ICD10 codes. Not a “rule out”.

Reimbursement tracks with the CPT used so use the right CPT code and make sure language in report supports that code. All CTA assumes 3D, thus need to mention 3D in report. Have your reporting align with @Heart_SCCT guidelines. @docjuanb at #SCCT2021

Unfortunately #cardiacCT often lumped into CT not cardiac. Hospitals should update cost charges to accurately reflect true cost of work, align w/ other cardiac testing. With costs underreported, CMS bases APC & reimbursement on these historically lower costs @docjuanb #SCCT2021

1/13 Really interesting read Rory. Thx for sharing. I agree, its v difficult to remain clear headed when theres so much data & it can all be interpreted in different ways. Prof. @AndrewEwing11 is unhappy with #Sweden's strategy and has been openly critical - he's entitled to that

https://twitter.com/ohanloncmr/status/1320789726052405251

2/13 I think that data is being represented in a way that suits the narrative.I added extra columns:"since Aug 7" & "since Sept 7".I used Oct 14 as end point (date of publication).I also highlighted Netherlands in red as it was best performing in the table and good for comparison

3/13 In Sweden from Aug to Oct there was a 3% increase in cumulative deaths per 100k and from Sept to Oct there was a 1% increase. Meanwhile, Netherlands (best of the worst) had 8% & 6% increases in cumulative deaths per 100k respectively.

Heart disease is recognized as the leading cause of morbidity & mortality in patients with muscular dystrophy

This study prospectively followed 117 people (median age, 42 (interquartile range [IQR], 26-50) years; 49 [41.9%] women) with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, type 1 myotonic dystrophy, or facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy.

This is a MUST SEE video on the #Coronavirus in Italy. The #ICU intensivist explains the epidemic and treatment- Report From The Front Lines @JAMA_current - YouTube #Covid_19 #COVIDー19 #COVID

This is a good summary but somewhat inconsistent to what we have been hearing on #twitter about #italy. The question about triaging those sick and above 60 yo was NOT answered directly. He said the goal was for everyone to get an ICU bed but was that successful? 1/

@CHeartsTrees @J_HarrisPT @BruceyMd @ProfJohnBuckley @lisacotie @DrAndrewPipe

The @HeartInstitute houses 1 of the largest #cardiac #rehabilitation programs in 🇨🇦. Even with our resources and infrastructure, we cannot accommodate cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) to measure VO2peak for each and every patient before their 1st cardiac rehab class.

Even if we had sufficient personnel, training, equipment and resources, are expensive CPETs for the purpose of determining VO2peak and subsequent exercise prescription necessary?

Team finds persistent pathogen Bartonella in a high proportion of #tumor tissue + nearby spleen/#cardiac tissue of dogs with HSA - a #cancer that arises from cells lining blood vessels☝️but did NOT find the pathogen in whole blood from the same dogs: journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

2/ Conclude 👉 “This work adds more evidence to the connection between #infection and cancer risk, and demonstrates that molecular testing of whole blood samples does not rule out the tissue presence of this pathogen [Bartonella]”: sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/…

3/ To be extra clear: this is an example of how the blood is often NOT a “sewer of the body” where #pathogens tied to chronic #disease can be found 👉 Rather pathogens in tissue, or in the CNS/brain, or even inside immune cells often require testing beyond blood to be identified
