Welcome to the start of a new year. When the Jewish people celebrate the Passover they say, "Next year in Jerusalem". May this year see the Messiah's second coming. The Old Testament is approximately twice the length of the New Testament; and, for that reason two portions of Scripture are taken from it daily. The plan we follow with the Bible readings comments is designed to complete the reading of the Old Testament once, and the New Testament twice, in the course of 12 months. We begin at the beginning, which is the meaning of "Genesis". It is not a scientific account of our origins - though it is 100% scientifically accurate as it is an infallible and inspired record from our Omnipotent Creator. At times some people are confused as to whether the Genesis account is literal - i.e. real - or a parable.Unquestionably the answer is it is both. Although it is not written to be a scientific textbook; it is 100% accurate scientifically and describes events that did happen. It tells us why we are here; and that God put us on earth for a purpose - "to fill the earth with His glory" (Numbers 14verses21; cp Genesis 1verses26). Genesis 1 describes 6 days of evening/morning duration. The Hebrew day begins at sundown and ends 24 hours later. Days 1-3 show a pattern - light; water; life - a pattern repeated in days 4-6. Chapter 2 tells us that God rested from His creative work on day 7 - the Sabbath. And in the Hebrew text for days 1-6 this pattern is followed - "there was a day, one ... two...right through to six". Genesis 1verses26 tells us that the Almighty's purpose was to fill the earth with people in whom the divine likeness - or character - would be seen cp also Psalm 8verses1-9. The Sabbath is the first day to have a name, which is emblematic of the Sabbath rest of the kingdom age (Hebrews 4verses8-11). Chapter 2 focuses more on the formation of Eve from Adam's side as the first marriage, which typifies Christ and his bride (the ecclesia - Ephesians 5verses22-33). Additional useful information is that the word translated as "creature" AV is consistently the Hebrew word 'nephesh' elsewhere translated throughout the Old Testament as "soul". Once the divine spirit in the form of breath is found within any creature it becomes nephesh chaim, or breath of life, which the LORD Good breathed into Adam in chapter 2verses7. Adam was a whole being and although like his animal counterparts of the dust he was brought to life directly by the Almighty breathing the spirit - or life-giving breath into him. This indicates the LORD God's intention to have a close relationship with His human creatures.

Ingen annan jazzskiva har sålt lika mycket som Kind of Blue. Musik som en viskning i örat från en kärlek, säger saxofonisten Gunnar Lindgren, som spelat låtarna från albumet fler gånger än Miles Davis själv gjort. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Fem låtar, inspelade under två vårdagar 1959 i New York. Musikerna trodde att det var vanlig dag på jobbet, men Miles Davis hade andra planer.När John Coltrane och de andra packat upp sina instrument fick de istället för färdiga låtar några skalor nerklottrade på papper. Miles ville åt något nytt – det spontana skapandet.”Därför blev det så bra”, säger musikern Daniel Bingert, som när han spelade in sin senaste skiva provade samma metod som Miles Davis använde.Men vad hände egentligen när Gunnar Lindgren tidigt 60-tal upptäckte att Miles Davis råkade vara på samma flyg som honom på väg från Göteborg till Stockholm?En P2 dokumentär från 2021 av Anton Karis.

No mês de dezembro a Diana Teixeira, a Maria Rita e o João Pedro estiveram à conversa com o autor Afonso Reis Cabral sobre o mais recente livro do autor: O Último Avô. Quando Augusto Campelo, o mais genial escritor português, queima o manuscrito no qual trabalhou durante anos, deixa para trás um mistério: seria o tão esperado romance sobre a experiência traumática da Guerra Colonial, de que tantas vezes falava, mas à qual nunca dedicou um livro? Subsiste a dúvida: o escritor morre uma semana depois.  Resta por isso ao neto — herdeiro do nome e da memória familiar — a missão de descobrir a verdade e de compreender (ou não) o gesto do avô. Mas essa busca arrasta-o sem querer para um terreno bem mais doloroso, que se prende com a fuga e a morte prematura da mãe, cuja ausência é sublinhada há anos por um quarto trancado na casa do avô. Atravessando a intimidade de três gerações de uma família marcada por perdas, conflitos e paixões, O Último Avô conta a história da relação entre um escritor tirânico e o seu único neto, entre a herança literária e a vida real.

Higher Ed AV PodcastEpisode 337The Long-Awaited Special Guest EpisodeIn this special episode of the Higher Ed AV Podcast, Joe welcomes a long-awaited guest, his wife, Amy, for a candid, hilarious conversation that pulls back the curtain on their life behind the scenes. Together, they reflect on the sacrifices, support, and real-world tradeoffs that shaped Joe's career journey, balancing ambition, family, and the grind of leadership. The episode closes on a powerful note as Amy shares a message about grace and contentment, reminding listeners they don't have to build their lives alone.The conversation opens with pure “Way household” energy, Joe and Amy playfully spar over his signature intro, the pressure of being on video, and what it's like stepping into a space where thousands of listeners feel familiar, even if Amy would rather stay behind the scenes. Joe admits he rarely scripts episodes, but tries this time… only to watch it immediately go off the rails in the best way. It's light, authentic, and sets the tone for an episode that feels more like a front-porch conversation than a formal interview.From there, they move into the real stuff: their blended family, the behind-the-curtain reality of Joe's career trajectory, and the seasons where Amy carried extra weight at home while Joe pursued degrees and chased the next calling. Amy speaks candidly about what that looked like day-to-day with kids, schedules, dinner, the emotional load while Joe acknowledges the cost and names something many leaders forget. Career growth is rarely an individual accomplishment… it's often built on unseen support, shared sacrifice, and a partner willing to hold the rope while you climb.They also take a fun detour through “conference life” as Amy describes being dropped into the pro AV world with trips to Barcelona and Bangkok, rooftop bars, industry personalities, and the moments that made her realize this community is both nerdy and genuinely relational. But her sharpest insight comes as an outsider looking in… Titles don't impress her, character does. That perspective becomes a mirror for Joe's imposter syndrome and constant drive for “more,” and it lands as a timely lesson for leaders: not everyone is chasing the same ladder, and success isn't always promotion, it's alignment with what matters most.By the end, this episode stops being “Joe finally got Amy on the mic” and becomes an enduring a reminder that the best leadership is anchored before it's amplified. The laughs are real, but so is the message… Ambition without connection will always feel hollow, and achievement without gratitude will never feel like enough. Whether you're building a career, a team, or a legacy, the takeaway is simple, don't do it alone. Let faith, community, and the people who truly know you keep you grounded, so the life you're building is one you can actually live.Connect with Joe Way:Web: https://www.josiahway.comLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/josiahwayX (Formerly Twitter): https://www.x.com/josiahwayInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/josiahway

Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. När det talades om forskning i radion de första åren var det i regel forskarna själva som föreläste. Senare hördes de intervjuade – men av mycket hovsamma reportrar som knappast var inställda på att ifrågasätta.Först fram på 60-talet börjar vi känna igen ett journalistiskt arbetssätt i förhållande till forskarna.Vi hör flera historiska exempel med röster som Gösta Knutsson, Bengt Feldreich och Bert Bolin.

Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. ”Den sista kvarten är bland det mäktigaste, mest magnifika man kan tänka sig”, säger en annan i den här dokumentären om vilka intryck som symfonin gjort på olika människor. Det handlar till exempel om Uno som fick vara med om ett oväntat promenadmål en majnatt på Skånegatan i Stockholm – Allan Petterssons gamla lägenhet! Det handlar också om hon som drabbades av symfonin första gången i telefon och om varför det blev tradition att använda sjuan när fritidshemmen på Södermalm i Stockholm firade Halloween. Möt också Gianmattia från Turin som drömmer om att få dirigera sjuan för en italiensk publik, och hör också vad en katt i Våxtorp tyckte om musiken.

Welcome to our daily Bitachon. Today is a special class for Asarah B'Tevet. As we know, today is a fast day—a significant day commemorating the siege laid against Yerushalayim and the eventual destruction of the first Beit HaMikdash. I use the word 'commemoration' loosely, because today isn't just about remembering the past; it's about taking action in the present. It is interesting to note the other readings that coincide with Asarah B'Tevet every year. In Parshat Vayigash , we always read about Yosef and his brothers reuniting. Furthermore, in last week's Haftarah , the prophet Yechezkel received a message from God to perform a miracle: Take one piece of wood and write 'Yehudah' on it. Take another and write 'Yosef.' When you hold them together, they will miraculously fuse into one. When the people ask for the symbolism behind this, tell them that in the future, the house of Yehudah (representing the Davidic line) and the house of Yosef (representing the ten tribes who separated) will finally be reunited when Mashiach comes. Where did this division begin? While the Gemara attributes the destruction of the first Temple to the three cardinal sins—idolatry, immorality, and bloodshed—the fundamental 'rupture' started earlier. After Shlomo HaMelech passed away, his son Rechavam took the throne. However, Yerovam ben Nevat, from the tribe of Ephraim (descended from Yosef), broke away to start a separate kingdom. This split was the true beginning of the downfall of the Jewish people. As the Gemara in Shabbat 56b notes, the people would not have turned to idolatry had it not been for this division; it was Yerovam who introduced the two golden calves to solidify the split. This breakdown happened in Shechem. Rashi points out that Shechem is a place predestined for tragedy: it is where Yosef was sold by his brothers and where the kingdom eventually fractured. This is why Asarah B'Tevet always coincides with these Torah portions. While Tisha B'Av marks the actual destruction and the later sin of sinat chinam (baseless hatred) during the second Temple, Asarah B'Tevet focuses on the beginnings . The siege began today. The first cracks in our foundation appeared today. And those cracks were rooted in a lack of brotherly love. The Yaarot Devash notes a fascinating calculation: the day God decreed that Kayin would be a wanderer for killing his brother, Hevel, was Asarah B'Tevet. This day has been rooted in the theme of exile due to broken brotherhood since the dawn of history—from Kayin and Hevel to Yosef and his brothers. Therefore, Asarah B'Tevet is a time for introspection. Ask yourself: How can I work on my 'brotherly love'? Which family members am I disengaged from? Which relationships can I repair? This fast is not just about abstaining from food; it is about examining our deeds and fixing our connections with one another. Have a tzom kal (an easy fast)."

Tu and Lei close out 2025 with a sweeping, on-the-ground review of the most consequential year yet for China's EV, AV, and mobility ecosystem — and why its ripple effects are now impossible for the rest of the world to ignore.  From CES to Shanghai, Munich, and New York, the hosts reflect on firsthand experiences that defined the year: China's EV export surge, the maturation of robotaxis, the cooling of the domestic price war, and the emergence of clear winners — and vulnerabilities — among Chinese and global automakers.They break down why BYD became a true global volume force, how XPeng, Geely, and Zeekr gained momentum, why NIO's long game is finally paying off, and what the rise of autonomous mobility outside China (Waymo, Baidu, WeRide, Pony.ai) means heading into 2026.The episode also revisits major inflection points: • Chinese EV exports flooding Europe, Latin America, Russia, and the UK • The beginning of an exported price war • Robotaxis moving from pilots to real commercial expansion • Why average vehicle prices topping $50,000 in the U.S. is unsustainable • How geopolitics, tariffs, and supply chains reshaped strategy • Why 2026 could be the year autonomy truly breaks throughCandid, data-driven, and reflective — this episode connects the dots on how 2025 reshaped the global auto industry and sets the stage for what comes next.⸻

1775 fick den tysken juden Aaron Isaac tillåtelse att stanna i Sverige. Här börjar en spännande historia om Sveriges äldsta invandrargrupp med annan religion än kristendomen. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Programledare Åsa Furuhagen samtalar med historiker Carl Henrik Carlsson som skrivit flera böcker om svensk judisk historia och Anneli Rådestad, journalist och chefredaktör för tidskriften Judisk krönika som började ges ut 1932.På många sätt är det en historia om en lyckad integration, samtidigt som antisemitismen i Sverige varit en följeslagare som skapat en utsatthet för många svenska judar genom historien. På Judiska Muséet berättar museichef Erika Hedenström om Judereglementet, en lag som gällde framtill 1838 som slog fast villkor för de judar om ville slå sig ner i Sverige.- Dokumentet berättar om att det inte är självklart med lika rättigheter för alla och att det kräver en kamp för att uppnå medborgerliga rättigheter. Här och på andra håll i världen.Följ också med till Norrköping, en stad med många spår av judiskt liv. Bland annat i den lilla synagogan som uppfördes i mitten av 1800 talet. Daniel Leviathan som skriver en avhandling om svenska synagogor beskriver hur synagogan lånade form och uttryck från dåtidens kyrkor. Bland annat satte man in en stor orgel på en läktare bakom församlingen- precis som i en kyrka. I Norrköping finns också tydliga spår av judiska industrialister som byggde upp sina fabriker runt Motala ström, berättar Kjell Örtorf som skriver en bok om judarnas historia i Norrköping.

Joe Way returns to his “annual Christmas episode” roots with a personal reflection recorded during Christmas week. Using Isaiah 9:6 as the backbone, Joe walks through the four names—Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace—and connects them to a transformational year of health, leadership growth, humility, and a renewed focus on peace (both internal and relational). He also previews what's ahead: a special episode next week, followed by four weeks of ISE prep with guests.What You'll Hear in This EpisodeWhy Joe brought back the classic Christmas episode format: reflection, grounding, and meaning—not “Santa's bag of stuff.”The headline transformation this year: lifestyle change and losing nearly 80 pounds since ISE.A leadership reframe: moving from “my strength” to humility, team, and reliance on something bigger than yourself.The core theme: Isaiah 9:6 as a lens for personal growth and professional leadership in AV.A practical challenge for listeners: where are you seeking peace, and how are you creating it for others?Key Scripture AnchorIsaiah 9:6 (referenced throughout):“For to us a child is born… and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”Segment Breakdown1) Welcome + Christmas Episode ResetJoe explains this is his Christmas-week reflection tradition.He's intentionally letting the episode “come to him” rather than over-scripting it.Quick look ahead: special episode next week + four-week ISE guest series.2) A Transformational YearThe visible milestone: major weight loss since last ISE.The deeper shift: re-centering priorities, stepping back from nonstop tasks, and choosing what's sustainable.3) Wonderful CounselorJoe shares a “coming to Jesus” moment post-ISE: needing change, recognizing willpower alone wouldn't hold.The takeaway: strength isn't always self-generated; it can come from faith, community, and trusted counsel.AV tie-in: your “counselor” can include your people—team, mentors, leaders, support systems—especially in high-demand roles.4) Mighty GodA meditation on power + humility: the Creator arriving as a vulnerable infant.Leadership parallel: real strength can show up through vulnerability, not force.AV tie-in: your work serves a mission bigger than tickets and installs—education changes lives; uptime supports outcomes.5) Everlasting FatherA leadership responsibility theme: consistency, integrity, safety, and support.Joe connects this to a hard year in higher ed (budget pressure, freezes, uncertainty) and the need for a stable foundation.AV tie-in: being the leader (at any level) who creates security—resources, clarity, and space for others to succeed.6) Prince of PeaceJoe frames this as a 2026 focus: peace isn't just “less noise,” it's wholeness and restored unity.He speaks to conflict, tension, reconciliation, and becoming someone who restores rather than escalates.AV tie-in: be the calming presence in the room—compassionate leadership that helps teams move through pressure together.7) Closing Blessing + CommunityJoe wishes listeners a Merry Christmas and a meaningful season for whatever they celebrate.He reinforces the message: peace is personal, and for him it's found in Jesus.Gratitude to the audience + reminder to follow, connect, and join HETMA.Memorable Quotes / Pull-Quotes (for social or episode page)“Peace isn't the absence of noise and tension—it's the presence of wholeness.”“If the strength were based on me, it would fail.”“Our job is bigger than signal flow—what we support changes lives.”Listener TakeawaysIdentify where your “counsel” comes from when things get heavy—and stop trying to white-knuckle it alone.Lead with vulnerability: people follow humans, not flawless job titles.Build a culture of safety and consistency—your team should know you'll show up the same tomorrow.Pursue peace as restoration, not avoidance: be the person who brings unity back into the room.What's Next (Tease)Next week: a “very special” episode Joe thinks you'll enjoy.After that: four weeks of ISE prep with guests and updates on what's happening at ISE.Connect with Joe Way:Web: https://www.josiahway.comLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/josiahwayX (Formerly Twitter): https://www.x.com/josiahwayInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/josiahway

This is the recording from my invited talk on philosophical resources for understanding and managing anger, which was part of my alma mater Lakeland University's Thinkhaus talk series, given up at the Mead Public Library in Sheboygan, WI. The original recording from 2017 was made by a local high school AV club, which unfortunately didn't do a great job with sound, lighting, video, or editing, so I didn't release it at the time, but I've subsequently remastered it to improve all of those. In the talk, I discuss how ideas drawn from Plato, Aristotle, and Epictetus can help us to deal productively with the anger that we inevitably encounter or experience. Specifically, from Plato we learn how to identify the sorts of conflicts that are likely to lead to anger, from Aristotle how to assess our own anger responses, and from Epictetus how to shift our feeling of anger into a different feeling by reminding ourselves of why people do things that we take as wrong or offensive.

Jude tells us that he is the brother of James. In James' letter he says to us that he is the Lord Jesus Christ's brother (actually half-brother - for Mary was their mother see Mark 3verses31-35; and 6verses3). Joseph was the father of James and Jude. Mary was, contrary to orthodox teaching, not a perpetual virgin. After Jesus was born Joseph had a normal marital relationship with Mary (see Matthew 1verses23-25) and had an additional 3 sons and at least 2 unnamed daughters. Unlike his siblings Jesus was conceived by the power of God - the Holy Spirit (Luke 1verses30-35). The letter of Jude deals with the same issues as 2 Peter 2 - the problems created by the false teachers. The letter was written about 65 AD, by which time the departures in teaching from the true faith were multiplying. Jude had set out with the purpose of writing a letter to encourage his readers in their shared faith. But due to the pressing problems created by the errorists Jude was diverted to write about the need to continue in the faith and to strenuously resist the errorists. Verses 3-16 tell us that there will always be opposition from false brethren. Jude cites 5 Scriptural historical examples. These demonstrate God's dealings with the false leaders and, inferentially show the same point as 2 Peter 2 i.e. that Yahweh knows how to preserve and deliver the righteous. The first example was from the time of the wilderness wanderings, when Korah, Dathan and Abiram attempted to usurp the authority of Moses and Aaron. Numbers 16 gives details of that rebellion. The second example is the destruction of Sodom and deliverance of righteous Lot found in Genesis 19. The third example is that of the insatiable covetousness of Balaam, which not only destroyed himself but, also, many Israelites at the border of the Promised Land. These events are outlined in Numbers chapters 22-25. Example 4 related to the Samaritan opposition to the rebuilding of Jerusalem and is outlined in the books of Ezra and Nehemiah. The Samaritans falsely claimed a religious affinity with the God of Israel and they contended with chosen people. The 5th example is that of powerful and blasphemous Lamech in his attempt to eradicate Enoch. Genesis 4 shows us that only 7 generations from Adam wicked and godless men were opposing the way of God. Note in the AV that "ungodly" is used 7 times. Contrast Psalm 1, which in the Hebrew Bible is attributed to Enoch. Read aloud slowly. Pause and ponder. Verses 12-13 are a series of metaphors which expose the uselessness and dangers of all false teachers. The chapter concludes with a call to stand steadfast for the faith. The events overtaking the ecclesias had been prophesied by the Apostles. Scripture was being fulfilled before their eyes. Their part was to continue to faithfully follow their Lord Jesus Christ. So too must we. Any who become defiled by the influence of the false teachers are like a stick in the fire that needs to be swiftly plucked from the fire and extinguished. Let's pause and slowly read aloud and ponder the closing doxology of verses 24-25, "Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy, to the only God, our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen." ESVThanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow

In this episode, the CardioNerds (Dr. Natalie Tapaskar, Dr. Jenna Skowronski, and Dr. Shazli Khan) discuss the process of heart transplantation from the initial donor selection to the time a patient is discharged with Dr. Dave Kaczorowski and Dr. Jason Katz. We dissect a case where we understand criteria for donor selection, the differences between DBD and DCD organ donors, the choice of vasoactive agents in the post-operative period, complications such as cardiac tamponade, and the choice of immunosuppression in the immediate post-operative period. Most importantly, we highlight the importance of multi-disciplinary teams in the care of transplant patients. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds Intern, Dr. Julia Marques Fernandes.

Pearls When thinking about donor selection, you need to consider how much physiologic stress your recipient can tolerate, and this may guide your selection of “higher risk” or “lower risk” donors.   The use of DCD donors has increased the potential donor pool and shortened waitlist times with very similar perioperative outcomes to DBD transplantation.  Post-operative critical care management rests on a fundamental principle to apply as much inotropic/vasoactive therapy as needed to achieve some reasonable physiologic hemostasis, and then getting “the heck out of the way!” There are no standard regimens as practices vary across centers, but rest on providing adequate RV support, maintaining AV synchrony, and early resuscitation.   The RV is fickle and doesn't take a joke too well. RV dysfunction post-transplant is important to watch for, and it can be transient or require aggressive support. Don't miss assessing for cardiac tamponade which can require surgical evacuation- “where there's space, that space can be filled with fluid.”   Induction immunosuppression post-transplant varies across centers, but some considerations for use may include (1) high sensitization of the patient, (2) high risk immunologic donor-recipient matching, and (3) recipient renal dysfunction to provide a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) sparing regimen long term.  Management of heart transplant patients is a multi-disciplinary effort that requires coordination amongst heart failure/transplant cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, anesthesiologists, pathology/immunologists and a slew of ancillary services. Without a dynamic and collaborative team, successful cardiac transplantation could not be possible.  Notes Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Natalie Tapaskar  What are the basic components of donor heart selection? In practicality, it can be a very inexact science, but we use some basic selection criteria such as: (1) size matching (2) ischemic time (3) donor graft function (4) immunologic compatibility (5) age of the potential donor and recipient (6) severity of illness of the recipient (7) regional variation in donor availability When thinking about accepting older donors (>50 years old), we ideally would screen for donor coronary disease and try to keep ischemic times as short as possible. We may accept an older donor for a recipient who is highly sensitized, which leaves a smaller potential donor pool. There is no clear consensus on size matching, but the predicted heart mass is most used. We are generally more comfortable oversizing than under-sizing donor hearts. Serial echocardiography is important in potential donors as initially reduced ejection fractions can improve on repeat testing, and these organs should not be disregarded automatically. For recipients who are more surgically complex, (i.e. multiple prior sternotomies or complex anatomy), it's probably preferable to avoid older donors with some graft dysfunction and favor donors with shorter ischemic times. What is the difference between DBD and DCD? DBD is donation after brain death- these donors meet criteria for brain death. Uniform Determination of Death Act 1980: the death of an individual is The irreversible cessation of circulatory and respiratory functions or The irreversible cessation of all functions of the entire brain, including those of the brain stem DCD is donation after circulatory death- donation of the heart after confirming that circulatory function has irreversibly ceased. Only donors in category 3 of the Maastricht Classification of DCD donors are considered for DCD donations: anticipated circulatory arrest (planned withdrawal of life-support treatment). DCD hearts can be procured via direct procurement or normothermic regional perfusion (NRP). The basic difference is the way the hearts are assessed, either on an external circuit or in the donor body. For the most complex recipient, DCD may not be utilized at some centers due to concern for higher rates of delayed graft function, but this is center specific and data is still evolving. What are some features surgeons consider when procuring the donor heart? Visual assessment of the donor heart is key in DBD or NRP cases. LV function may be hard to assess, but visually the RV can be inspected. Palpation of the coronary arteries is important to assess any calcifications or abnormalities. Ventricular arrhythmias at the time of procurement may be concerning. Key considerations in the procurement process: (1) Ensuring the heart remains decompressed at all times and doesn't become distended (2) adequate cardioplegia delivery (3) aorta is cross-clamped properly all the way across the vessel (4) avoiding injury to adjacent structures during procurement What hemodynamic parameters should we monitor and what vasoactive agents are used peri-heart transplant? There is no consensus regarding vasoactive agent use post-transplant and practice varies across institutions. Some commonly seen regimens may include: (1) AAI pacing around 110 bpm to support RV function and preserve AV synchrony (2) inotropic agents such as epinephrine and dobutamine to support RV function (3) pulmonary vasodilators such as inhaled nitric oxide to optimize RV afterload Early post-transplant patients tend to have low cardiac filling pressures and require preload monitoring and resuscitation initially. Slow weaning of inotropes as the patient shows signs of stable graft function and hemodynamics. RV dysfunction may manifest as elevated central venous pressure with low cardiac index or hypotension with reducing urine output. Optimize inotropic support, volume status, metabolic status (acidosis and hypoxia), afterload (pulmonary hypertension), and assess for cardiac tamponade. Tamponade requires urgent take-back to the operating room to evacuate material. Refractory RV failure requires mechanical circulatory support, with early consideration of VA-ECMO. Isolated RV MCS may be used in the right clinical context. Why do pericardial effusions/cardiac tamponade happen after transplant? They are not uncommon after transplant and can be due to: Inherent size differences between the donor and recipient (i.e. if the donor heart is much smaller than the recipient's original heart) Bleeding from suture lines and anastomoses, pacing wires, and cannulation sites Depending on the hemodynamic stability of the patient and the location of the effusion, these effusions may require urgent return to the OR for drainage/clot evacuation via reopening the sternotomy, mini thoracotomy, and possible pericardial windows. What are the basics of immunosuppression post-transplant? Induction immunosuppression is variably used and is center-specific. Considerations for using induction therapy may include: (1) high sensitization of the patient (2) younger patients or multiparous women with theoretically more robust immune systems (3) crossing of recipient antibodies with donor antigens (3) renal function to provide a CNI sparing regimen long term Some considerations for avoiding induction may include: (1) older age of the recipient (2) underlying comorbid conditions such as infections or frailty of the recipient What are expected activity restrictions post-transplant? Sternal precautions are important to maintain sternal wire integrity. Generally avoiding lifting >10 pounds in the first 4-12 weeks, no driving usually in the first 4 weeks, monitoring for signs and symptoms of wound infections, and optimizing nutrition and physical activity. Cardiac rehabilitation is incredibly important as soon as feasible. References Kharawala A , Nagraj S , Seo J , et al.
