Podcasts about Heart failure

CardioNerds kicks off its advanced therapies series with Chair of the CardioNerds Heart Failure Council, Dr. Jenna Skowronski, co-chair of the series, Dr. Shazli Khan, and Episode FIT lead, Dr. Jason Feinman. In this first episode, they discuss the process of advanced therapies evaluation with Dr. Michelle Kittleson, Professor of Medicine and Director of Education in Heart Failure and Transplantation at Cedars-Sinai. In this case-based discussion, they cover the signs and symptoms of end-stage heart failure, the initial management strategies, and the diagnostic workup required when considering advanced therapies. Importantly, they discuss the special considerations for pursuing left-ventricular assist device (LVAD) versus heart transplantation as well as the multidisciplinary, team-based approach needed when advanced therapies are indicated.  Notes were drafted by Dr. Shazli Khan.  Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds Intern, Julia Marques Fernandes.

Pearls Guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) is indicated in all heart failure patients and improves survival, but progressive symptoms and intolerance to GDMT can be warning signs of disease progression. The I-NEED-HELP mnemonic is an excellent reference when considering referral for advanced therapies (Figure).   Management of acute decompensation includes diuretics and possible inotropic support. The inotropic agent used should be whichever best suits your specific patient. Milrinone may result in more hypotension, whereas dobutamine may result in more tachycardia. Tachycardic and normotensive patients may do better with milrinone, while hypotensive patients with normal heart rates may do better with dobutamine. Notably, DoReMi found no difference between milrinone and dobutamine for patients with cardiogenic shock.  The initial diagnostic evaluation includes an echocardiogram, right heart catheterization (RHC), and often cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) to objectively assess the status of the heart. Comprehensive labs, imaging and cancer screening are also needed to assess all other organs.   When making the decision to pursue advanced therapies, always ask:   Is the heart sick enough?   Is the rest of the body well enough?   These two questions provide a framework to guide if patients are optimal candidates for transplant versus LVAD.   The advanced therapies evaluation is a team sport! Patients will meet not only with advanced heart failure cardiologists, but also cardiac surgeons, psychiatrists, social workers, nutritionists and pharmacists. All team members are of critical value in the process.   Notes 1.) What are the key features of advanced cardiomyopathy, and when should providers consider referral for advanced therapies?   Advanced cardiomyopathy may present as recurrent hospitalizations for decompensated heart failure, intolerance to GDMT with symptomatic orthostasis and hypotension, and progressive symptoms of heart failure despite medical therapy.   The I-NEED-HELP mnemonic is a helpful tool to identify patients at risk of heart failure and is defined as follows: Need for Inotropic support, New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class IV symptoms, End-Organ Dysfunction, Ejection fraction

In this episode, editor in chief Joseph E. Safdieh, MD, FAAN, highlights articles about how monoclonal antibodies revolutionized neurologic treatment, why pregabalin link to increased heart failure, and a combined therapy that slows progression in primary progressive aphasia.

Type 2 diabetes directly damages your heart's ability to make energy, leaving you more vulnerable to fatigue, swelling, and heart failure Human heart tissue studies show that mitochondria — the power plants of your cells — lose key components in diabetic hearts, forcing the heart to beat with less fuel Fat and sugar metabolism both become inefficient, and backup fuels fail to provide support, leaving your heart stranded without reliable energy sources Structural changes inside the heart, including scar-like collagen buildup and weaker calcium-handling proteins, make each heartbeat less coordinated and less powerful You can take action by cutting linoleic acid (LA) from your diet, choosing the right carbohydrates, limiting environmental toxins, using sunlight strategically, and tracking your insulin resistance with HOMA-IR to protect your heart's energy systems

Focus Issue on Heart Failure and Clinical Trials

In this podcast accompanying the September issue of DTB (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/9), David Phizackerley (DTB Editor) is joined by Syba Sunny (DTB Clinical Editor). David and Syba discuss the editorial that highlights changes to antibiotic susceptibility reports, and in particular, the change to the 'I' classification from 'intermediate' to 'susceptible, increased exposure' (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/9/130). They talk about a DTB Select article that summarises an evidence review of deprescribing interventions in primary care and the importance of collaborative multidisciplinary teams, education and training, and shared-decision making (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/9/131). They finish by discussing the main article that provides an overview of pharmacological management of chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and the four main groups of drugs that form the four pillars of treatment (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/9/133).   Please subscribe to the DTB podcast to get episodes automatically downloaded to your mobile device and computer.

In this episode, Dr. Harlan Krumholz reviews the September 9, 2025 issue of JACC, covering key studies on artificial intelligence in cardiovascular research, the effects of tirzepatide in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and how social, racial, and genetic factors influence heart failure risk. He discusses the growing burden of heart failure in the elderly, the need to disaggregate data in Asian American and Pacific Islander populations, and the role of rare genetic variants in atrial fibrillation outcomes. The episode also features perspectives on clinical trial design, complex case reports, and emphasizes the need for AI submissions to meet high standards of clinical relevance, feasibility, and long-term impact.

On this episode of JHLT: The Podcast, the Digital Media Editors invite first author Ahmet Bilgili, from the University of Florida's Congenital Heart Center, and senior author Eric I. Jeng, MD, from the University of Florida's MCS program. Bilgili and Dr. Jeng discuss their paper, “Optimal pretransplant duration with HeartMate III left ventricular assist device: A contemporary analysis.” The discussion explores: Prior gaps in the literature regarding contemporary HM3 outcomes in relation to transplantation—and the study's potential influence on policy Which length of HM3 support influenced better post-transplant outcomes—and which ages were most influenced How these findings might change standard practice For the latest studies from JHLT, visit www.jhltonline.org/current, or, if you're an ISHLT member, access your Journal membership at www.ishlt.org/jhlt.
