This week we review a recent surgical paper on the 'off-label' use of the Melody valve for replacement of the AV valve in small infants and children. How effective and safe was this procedure? What factors were associated with the need for reintervention and what sorts of reinterventions were most common? Why was catheter based reintervention rarely employed? What sort of anti-coagulation protocol seems best to protect these valves? Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Nebraska, Dr. Samantha Gilg shares the insights from her work this week. DOI: 10.1007/s00246-024-03538-1

Le alte temperature mettono alla prova il nostro sistema cardiovascolare. Con il caldo, infatti, il cuore è costretto a lavorare di più per mantenere stabile la temperatura corporea, aumentando la frequenza cardiaca e favorendo la vasodilatazione. In questa puntata parliamo di come il caldo può influire sulla salute del cuore, soprattutto nei soggetti fragili o con patologie pregresse, e di cosa possiamo fare dall’idratazione al movimento nelle ore giuste, passando per la gestione dei farmaci per aiutarlo a battere bene anche d’estate. Ne parliamo con Silvia Castelletti, Presidente della Sezione di Cardiologia dello Sport della Società Europea di Prevenzione Cardiovascolare della Società Europea di Cardiologia e Cardiologa presso l'Ambulatorio di Cardiologia dello Sport di Auxologico.

This week we venture back in time to 2023 to review the results of the update of the Single Ventricle Reconstruction trial, specifically SVR III. How are HLHS patients are faring post Norwood at age 12? What is the overall transplant-free survival rate in this group? Are there differences in survival seen at 12 years between BTTT shunt patients and RV-PA conduit shunt patients? How do they compare in exercise capabilities? What about rates of PLE or arrhythmias seen? Are there interventions that may improve outcomes going forward? These are amongst the questions reviewed this week with the first author, Dr. Caren Goldberg who is Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Michigan. DOI: https://doi.org/10.1161/circulationaha.123.065192

No episódio de hoje, os cardiologistas Mateus Prata e Raphael Rossi recebem o Dr. Kelvyn Vital, cardiologista do Dante Pazzanese, para um mergulho profundo em um tema que inquieta quem está no laboratório de hemodinâmica e nos pós-operatórios: o infarto periprocedimento.

This week we speak with Professor Robert Hamilton of the University of Toronto about a recent case-control study in which his team identified a novel auto-antibody targeting a fetal cardiac protein that proved to have excellent sensitivity and specificity for the identification of fetuses that would develop heart block in fetal life in the offspring of women with maternal connective tissue disorders. How did the team in Toronto choose these particular target proteins? How well did this test perform in predicting heart block in pregnancies where there had been a prior pregnancy affected by block? Does this test possibly mean that fewer fetuses of mothers with connective tissue will need surveillance? Dr. Hamilton shares the details of this fascinating study this week. https://doi.org/10.1016/s2665-9913(25)00092-xWe also speak with Drs. David Ezon and Kenan Stern about the upcoming 16th Annual Mount Sinai Imaging Symposium - Conversations in Care: Cardiac Conundrums & 3D Echo Workshop which will be taking place at Mount Sinai on 5/31/25.

How does hand grip strength correlate with CPET measures of exercise abilities in children? How might this inexpensive test help identify patients who might benefit from exercise therapy? Will hand grip strength one day be as ubiquitous as blood pressure in the evaluation of our CHD patients? Dr. Powell shares the answers this week.https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpedcp.2025.200144

Neste episódio especial do DozeCast, William Batah, Victor Bemfica e Fernanda Justo se reúnem para uma conversa além do tradicional sobre um tema que todo cardiologista precisa dominar: as valvopatias reumáticas.Exploramos as nuances que fazem toda a diferença na prática clínica:

Sarcoidose, o camaleão da cardiologia - Parte 2 by Cardiopapers

This week we review a recent editorial commentary by Drs. Belinda Gray, Rachel Lampert and Michael Papadakis on the concept of the personalized emergency action plan for the patient with genetic heart disease who is 'returning to play' in vigorous sports. With newer data demonstrating that risk for SCA or SCD is perhaps not as high as was once thought in this setting of sport, can the development of a personalized emergency action plan further enhance safety beyond simple measures such as medical adherence? Who should be involved in drafting this emergency action plan and how does this feature in the concept of 'shared decision-making'? DOI: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.124.072830

Neste episódio especial, os convidados ilustres Dr. Eduardo Lapa (@afyacardiopapers @eduardolapa) e Dr. Rhanderson Cardoso (@rhandersoncardoso.md), se juntam a Diandro Mota e Victor Bemfica para um bate-papo que vai além da prática assistencial: vamos falar sobre empreendedorismo na medicina.Discutimos aquilo que ninguém ensina na faculdade:

Sarcoidose, o camaleão da cardiologia - Parte 1 by Cardiopapers

Sarcoidose, o camaleão da cardiologia - Parte 1 by Cardiopapers

This week we review a study assessing the impact of bundle branch block (BBB) on exercise tolerance amongst the single ventricle Fontan patient cohort. Why would this be associated with worse outcomes for exercise? How should the cardiologist use this datum of BBB in a single ventricle patient to inform clinical decision making in this patient group? Why is cardiac resynchronization therapy so challenging in this patient group? Dr. Omar Meziab of The University of Arizona shares his deep insights this week. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00246-024-03500-1

In this replay episode from 2023, we return to the world of ACHD when we review a recent German research paper on the prevalence of PTSD symptoms amongst the ACHD patient group. How common is this type of symptom observed in the ACHD patient group? What contributes to the high prevalence (17-20.5%) described in this work? What are the benefits of 'embedding' a mental health care worker in the ACHD clinic/program? What strategies can be employed in pediatric cardiology to potentially mitigate PTSD symptoms in our future ACHD patients? These are amongst the many topics reviewed this week with the former Mount Sinai ACHD program clinical social worker, Ms. Meredith Kalbacker who also comments on this week's work. DOI: 10.1016/j.amjcard.2023.06.087For those interested, the book referenced by Ms. Kalbacker, Healing Hearts and Minds, can be purchased on Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Healing-Hearts-Minds-Holistic-Congenital/dp/0197657281

This week we review a recent work from the team at Seattle Children's Hospital about obstetrical sonography and referral of fetuses with 'suboptimal imaging' for fetal echocardiography. Should all 'suboptimal imaging' cases be referred? How can fetal cardiologists parse out who needs a fetal cardiac scan and when? How does the fetal team in Seattle practically serve a geographic region exceeding 2,000 miles and properly triage the referrals, particularly when 'suboptimal imaging' is the rationale for referral? Associate Professor of Pediatrics at The University of Washington, Dr. Bhawna Arya provides deep insights into her recent work on how to think about fetuses referred for 'suboptimal imaging' as a rationale for fetal consultation. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00246-024-03495-9

This week we review a recent PHTS study on long-term outcomes following heart transplantation. Why do patients develop coronary vasculopathy and how commonly is it seen at long term follow-up? What factors are associated with better or worse long term outcomes? How do 'adverse childhood experiences' result in worse outcomes for patients? Why do young transplant patients have better long-term outcomes and can this be leveraged to improve older patient outcomes? We speak with the first author of this week's work, Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Ohio State and also from Nationwide Children's Hospital, Dr. Emily Hayes. DOI: 10.1111/petr.70042

Esteróides Anabolizantes na Cardiologia by Cardiopapers

This week we review a recent study assessing the rate of hematochezia seen in children following neonatal congenital heart surgery, predominantly for aortic obstruction such as in HLHS. How often is this sign observed in this patient group and what percentage of these patients have actual necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC)? Are there any modifiable risk factors for NEC? How can these data help clinicians separate out those with more benign forms of hematochezia from those with NEC and how might this improve care for this patient group? These are amongst the questions reviewed this week with the work's first author, University of Michigan Assistant Professor of Pediatrics, Dr. Courtney Strohacker. DOI: 10.1007/s00246-024-03485-xFor those interested in pediatric podcasts, please take a look at this list of the 'top 15' pediatric topic podcasts - we are #4 in pediatrics for 2025!https://podcast.feedspot.com/pediatric_podcasts/

This week we review a recent report of 4 patients with serious complications related to either perforation or external compression from the distal tines of the Alterra prestent when used for transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement. We speak with Dr. R. Allen Ligon, interventional cardiologist at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta/Emory University about a recent multicenter report of rare complications seen with this prosthesis. How common are perforations seen with this device and how often are these clinically silent? What should be done for clinically silent prestent perforations? What sort of surveillance of all patients with this device is warranted after successful placement? These are amongst the questions posed to Dr. Ligon and discussed this week. DOI: 10.1016/j.jaccas.2024.102836

This week we review a report from the teams at University College, Dublin and Texas Children's Hospital about a collaborative approach to education in which two centers across the globe participate in a shared fellow learning conference. In this conference which is aimed at fellow education, topics are chosen and discussed with facilitated learning from faculty at both sites. What can be gained for fellows on opposite sides of the Atlantic that cannot be learned from exposure to just their one site? How did this approach help fellows learn about how to deal with uncertainty in decision making? How did this trans-continental learning approach enhance patient and team communication? These are amongst the many questions posed to senior cardiologist and senior author of this week's work, Professor Colin McMahon of University College, Dublin, Ireland.   ·         DOI: 10.1007/s00246-024-03469-x

This week we review a recent review paper on newest innovations and literature on pacing in pediatric patients and learn a bit about such diverse pediatric pacing topics as:Use of the Medtronic Micra device in an off-label manner for epicardial pacing in small infantsNovel, less invasive approaches to placing epicardial leads in small childrenThe role of leadless pacing in the pediatric or CHD patientConduction system pacing in 2025 in the congenital patientThe above are amongst the potpourri of pacing topics that we review with noted congenital electrophysiologist, Dr. Charles Berul of Children's National Hospital in Washington, DC in a co-branded episode with the SADS Foundation. For more information on SADS, please go to their website: SADS.ORG.DOI: 10.1016/j.hrthm.2024.02.011

This week we step back in time 3 years ago to review an important cardiac MRI report on Fontan geometry and hemodynamics as measured by computational fluid dynamic analysis. How do factors like Fontan geometry or 'power loss' relate to quality of life for the Fontan young adult patient? How do these data inform imaging in the operating room during these palliations? We speak with the first author of this work, Associate Professor of Pediatrics at U. Penn, Dr. Laura Mercer-Rosa about this important and intriguing work. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.01.017
