Hosts Mitsuaki Sawano, MD, and Nobuhiro Ikemura, MD, welcome Yoshitaka Kimura, MD, PhD, of Leiden University Medical Center, to discuss proactive ablation strategies in patients with repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF). Dr. Kimura presents data from a long-term, single-center study evaluating electroanatomical mapping and preventive ablation of slow-conducting anatomical isthmuses (SCAI) in rTOF patients without prior ventricular tachycardia (VT). The findings show that identifying and successfully ablating SCAI significantly reduced VT incidence, with all VT events occurring in patients where ablation failed. Moreover, this approach reduced the proportion of patients qualifying for ICD implantation from 25–51% under current guidelines to just 11%. Dr. Kimura underscores a paradigm shift in congenital heart disease management—from treating VT reactively to preventing it proactively—highlighting the value of data-driven, tailored care strategies that avoid unnecessary device implantation and better target high-risk individuals.

When Jae's mother faced amputation due to Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI) an advanced stage of Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) in rural Louisiana, she refused to accept it as the only option. Despite being told there were no alternatives, Jae discovered the truth: not all PAD specialists have the skills to treat advanced cases. This episode comes at a crucial time. A May 2025 study from @SCAI reveals Black patients with CLI face a 46% higher chance of amputation and are 10% less likely to see vascular specialists before treatment. CLI is more deadly than breast, colon, and prostate cancer COMBINED—and outcomes worsen dramatically after amputation. Listen as Jae shares how she: • Fought against medical gaslighting • Found help through the @GlobalPADAssociation's Leg Saver Hotline (1-833-PAD-LEGS) • Connected with CLI specialist Dr. Amit Amin who successfully opened her mother's arteries This story could save someone's leg—or life.

This week we review a recent report of a new technique to implant SAPIEN valves for transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement in which 1-3 stents are implanted simultaneously with the SAPIEN valve. What are the potential benefits or disadvantages of this approach and who might be a better candidate for this method? Why is a stent needed outside of the relatively strong SAPIEN prosthesis and how does the team in San Diego choose bare metal vs. covered stents when performing this procedure? We speak with pediatric interventional cardiologist Dr. Jessica Heibel of Pediatrix in San Antonio, Texas about a recent work she co-authored with the team at Rady Children's Hospital in San Diego, California. Dr. Heibel reviews many of the finer points of transcatheter valve implantation this week. DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jscai.2022.100553

Cardiogenic shock is a state of cardiac dysfunction leading to hemodynamic instability and end-organ hypoperfusion. At the bedside, clinicians take various data points – from history to physical exam to labs/imaging and invasive hemodynamics – to make an assessment of the etiology, severity and management of cardiogenic shock. Health systems have developed “Shock Teams” to collectively interpret this data to deliver the optimal care for each patient. In this episode, Dr. Mark Dela Cruz (Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Fellow at University of Chicago), CardioNerds Critical Care Series Co-Chairs Dr. Mark Belkin (Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Fellow at University of Chicago) and Dr. Karan Desai (General Cardiology Fellow at University of Maryland), and CardioNerds Co-Founder Dr. Daniel Ambinder (Structural Fellow at Johns Hopkins Hospital) join Dr. Anu Lala (Director of the AHFT Fellowship, Associate Professor of Medicine and Cardiology at Mount Sinai Hospital and Deputy Editor of the Journal of Cardiac Failure) on a Shock Team Call! Dr. Lala leads us in a discussion of the systematic bedside evaluation of cardiogenic shock, from understanding a patient's physiology and their humanity, to manage their illness and make a rapid but thorough evaluation when on the Shock Call.

Pearls and Quotes - Shock Team Call The classic definition of cardiogenic shock was derived from studies of left ventricular dysfunction in the setting of acute myocardial infarction. With the advent of early primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and trends in cardiovascular disease risk factors, the prevalence of non-ischemic etiologies of cardiogenic shock (e.g., progression/exacerbation of chronic heart failure) has increased significantly.  The diagnosis of cardiogenic shock should be made by integrating key clinical features such as physical exam findings and objective laboratory and imaging data in an iterative fashion. Focused transthoracic echocardiography and invasive hemodynamics are helpful in further characterizing the type of shock and the etiology of cardiogenic shock. Early evaluation of right ventricular function is an important aspect of cardiogenic shock evaluation. Significant RV dysfunction portends poor prognosis, can necessitate more aggressive interventions, and defines the types of mechanical circulatory support necessary.  Classification systems for cardiogenic shock help to further characterize a patient's illness severity. The INTERMACS and SCAI classification systems are particularly designed to allow for early identification of patients who would most benefit from more advanced interventions such as vasoactive medications or mechanical circulatory support.  Shock Team Calls improve mortality for patients in cardiogenic shock. By rapidly bringing together heart failure specialists, interventional cardiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons, and critical care physicians, appropriate interventions and contingencies can be discussed and quickly implemented without adding delays to patient care. Importantly, these calls should attempt to integrate patient goals of care in order to best serve our patients.  Show notes - Shock Team Call 1. What is the classic definition of cardiogenic shock? The classic definition of cardiogenic shock was initially derived from the Shock Trial published in 1999 (1). In this trial, cardiogenic shock was defined as shock due to left ventricular dysfunction occurring in the setting of acute myocardial infar...

They discuss a case of an 18-year-old man with Autism Spectrum Disorder presented with advanced nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy. Due to anxiety, he was unable to tolerate right heart catheterization, and the initial evaluation for advanced heart failure therapies was deferred. With assistance from a multidisciplinary team, catheterization was successful, and he underwent cardiac transplantation. Faculty experts, Dr. Richard Dane Meredith (Cardiovascular Imaging, Mission healthcare), Dr. Julie Niezgoda (Congenital Cardiac Anesthesiologist, CCF), and Dr. Ran Lee (Critical Care Cardiology and Advanced HF/Transplant Cardiologist, CCF) provide the E-CPR for this episode.

Episode Teaching Pearls - Heart Failure with Autism Spectrum Disorder Autism spectrum disorder should not be regarded as a contraindication to organ transplantation.Respect for patient discomfort with procedures, and efforts to mitigate that discomfort, are essential.A multidisciplinary team approach, especially one utilizing allied health support services, is important to provide care to adolescent patients with advanced organ dysfunction, particularly those with developmental disabilities. Notes - Heart Failure with Autism Spectrum Disorder Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability characterized by impairments in social interaction and the presence of restricted, repetitive patterns of behaviors, interests, or activities (2). In 2016 the CDC estimated one in 54 children age 8 had ASD (3). Despite ASD's prevalence, studies of organ transplantation in children and adolescents with developmental disabilities are lacking. Guidelines from the International Society for Heart Lung Transplantation indicate that heart transplantation cannot be recommended in patients suffering from severe cognitive-behavioral disabilities (4). However, the definition of “severe” is not clear, so the assessment of severity of a cognitive impairment, as well as whether the impairment constitutes a contraindication to organ transplantation, falls to healthcare providers on a case-by-case basis.             Cardiac transplantation in a patient with ASD has been documented previously (5). Nonetheless our case represents an important example of advocacy for lifesaving care in patients with developmental disability. Without any one component of the team taking care of our patient, including physicians and allied healthcare providers, he would have died of refractory cardiogenic shock. However, with individualized care and a multidisciplinary combined effort, his providers were able to overcome the obstacles posed by his ASD and deliver indicated interventions.

[Music] At Microsoft Research India, research focused on societal impact is typically a very interdisciplinary exercise that pulls together social scientists, technology experts and designers. But how does one evaluate or validate the actual impact of research in the real world? Today, we talk to Tanuja Ganu who manages the Societal Impact through Cloud and AI (or SCAI) group in MSR India. SCAI focuses on deploying research findings at scale in the real world to validate them, often working with a wide variety of collaborators including academia, social enterprises and startups.

[Music] Sridhar Vedantham: Tanuja, welcome to the podcast. I'm really looking forward to this particular edition of what we do here. Because, I know that you manage SCAI and it's quite an intriguing part of the lab. Now before we get into that, tell us a little bit about yourself. Tanuja Ganu: First of all, thanks Sridhar for having me on the podcast today. And uh, yes, uh, I'm not a full-time researcher, but I'm engineer by training and I have done my Master’s in Computer Science. Over the last decade or so, my work is primarily at the intersection of research and engineering, and it's on the applied research side. So throughout my experience and journey, working at research labs and start up, I'm very much interested in taking a research idea through the entire incubation phase to validate its applicability in real world problem settings. Sridhar Vedantham: So, Tanuja, I know you manage this thing called SCAI within the lab and I think it's a very interesting part of the lab. Talk to us a little bit about that, and especially expand upon what SCAI- the term SCAI- itself stands for, because I myself keep tripping up on it whenever I try to explain it. Tanuja Ganu: Yes, Sridhar. So since the inception of our lab, the lab has been doing very interesting work in the societal impact space. Additionally, with the advances in artificial intelligence and cloud-based technologies in recent years there are increased opportunities to address some of these societal problems through technology and amplify its positive effect. So as the name suggests, SCAI, that is Societal Impact through Cloud and Artificial Intelligence, it is an incubation platform within MSR for us to ideate on such research ideas, work with our collaborators like academia, NGOs, social enterprises, startups, and to test or validate our hypothesis through very well defined real world deployments. Also our location in India allows us to witness and carefully analyze various socio-economic challenges. So the solutions that we ideate are inspired by Indian settings and in many cases equally applicable to different parts of the world. Sridhar Vedantham: Interesting, so it sounds like there's a fair amount of difference between the kind of work that SCAI does and between what the rest of the lab actually does in terms of research. Tanuja Ganu: So at MSR India, where research work is mainly along three different axes, firstly advancing the state of the art in science and technology, second is inspiring the direction for technology advances, and the third important axis is building the technology for driving societal impact. So SCAI is primarily focused on social impact access and many of our projects also do have very strong academic and technological impact. At SCAI, it's an interdisciplinary team of social scientists, computer scientists, software engineers, designers, and program managers from the lab who come together for creating, nurturing and evaluating our research ideas through real world deployments and validations. So that's really the difference in terms of the other type of research that we do at lab and what we do at SCAI. Sridhar Vedantham: So when you decide to take up a project or accept it under the SCAI umbrella, what do you actually look for? Tanuja Ganu: Yeah, we look for a few things for defining a SCAI project. So firstly, it should address a significant real-world problem and should have a potential to scale. The second thing is the problem should offer interesting research challenges for our team. The next thing is whether we have credible partners or collaborators with domain expertise to deploy, evaluate and validate of our research. We also look for how we can define rigorous impact evaluation plan for a project. And lastly, we look for what are the feasible graduation paths for the project within two to three years of time horizon. Sridhar Vedantham: What do you mean by graduation? Tanuja Ganu: So, um, there are different ways in which a particular project can complete its successful execution at SCAI center, and that's what we're really terming it as a graduation. And there could be really different types of graduation path depending upon each type of project. Sridhar Vedantham: OK, let's talk a little bit about some of the projects that you are currently doing under the SCAI umbrella. Because to me from what you've said so far, it sounds like there's probably going to be a fairly wide spread of types of projects, and quite a large variety in the type of things that you're doing there. Tanuja Ganu: So yes, Sridhar, that's very true. We are working on a very diverse set of projects right now. And, um, so to give a flavor of our work, I would discuss about two or three projects briefly. The first project is called HAMS that is Harnessing Automobiles for Safety. We all know that road safety is very critical issue and according to World Bank Report globally there are 1.25 million road traffic deaths every year. In India there is one death every 4 minutes. That happens due to road accidents. So, to understand and address this very critical issue of road safety, HAMS project was initiated by our team at MSR, including Venkat Padmanabhan, Akshay Nambi and Satish Sangameswaran. HAMS provides a low cost solution which is being evaluated for automated driver license testing. HAMS includes a smartphone with its associated sensors like camera, accelerometer, etc that is fitted inside a car. It monitors a driver and the driving environment and using AI and edge intelligence, it provides effective feedback on the safe driving practices. So at present, HAMS has been deployed at regional transport office in Dehradun, India for conducting dozens of driver license tests a day, and the feedback from this deployment is very encouraging, since it provides transparency and objectivity to the overall license testing and evaluation process. The second project is in the domain of natural language processing, called Interactive Neural Machine Translation, which was initiated by Kalika Bali and Monojit Choudhury in our NLP team. So, when we look at this problem, there are 7000 plus spoken languages worldwide, and for many many use cases, we often need to translate content from one language to another. Though there are many commercial machine translation tools available today, those are applicable to a very small subset of languages, say 100, which have sufficiently large digital datasets available to train machine learning models. So to aid human translation process as well as for creating digital data set for many low resource or underserved languages, we combine innovations from deep learning and human computer interactions and bring human in the loop. So when we talk about INMT, the initial translation model is bootstrapped using small data set that is available for these languages. And then INMT provides quick suggestions for human translators while they are performing translations. And over time it also helps in creating larger digital datasets which would help in increasing accuracy of translation for such underserved languages. So in INMT we're currently working with three external collaborators called Pratham Books, Translators Without Borders and CGNet Swara to evaluate and enhance INMT. So just to give few examples, Pratham Books is a nonprofit publisher who would like to translate children story books in as many languages as possible. Translators Without Borders is a nonprofit who is working in the areas of crisis relief, health and education, and they would like to evaluate IN&MT for an Ethiopian language called Tigrinya. Our other collaborator CGNet Swara is working with INMT for collecting Hindi Gondi data set. And just to give you one last flavor of one more project… Sridhar Vedantham: So I'm sorry, sorry to interrupt, but I was curious, how do you actually go around selecting or identifying partners and collaborators for these projects? Tanuja Ganu: So when we started thinking about SCAI projects last year, we had initiated a call for proposals where we invited external partners and collaborators to submit various ideas that they do have and the process that they have in addressing some of the societal impact projects and we Interestingly received a huge pool of applications through this call for proposals we received more than 150 applications through that. And through careful evaluation process, as we discussed earlier, we finally selected a few projects to start under SCAI umbrella. Sridhar Vedantham: OK, so I'm sorry I interrupted. You wanted to…you were speaking about another project. Tanuja Ganu: Yeah, so just to give one more flavor of the project that we are currently doing which is addressing another important issue of air pollution. So air pollution is another major concern worldwide, with an estimated 7 million deaths every year, and when we look in India, it's even more serious problem since 13 out of 20 most polluted cities in the world are in India. So to solve the air pollution problem, it is important to get correct monitoring of pollution levels, their timely and seasonal patterns in more granular manner, that is, from multiple locations inside the city. So apart from sophisticated and expensive air pollution monitoring stations feature already available, there are low-cost air pollution sensors which are being deployed for this purpose. But the local sensors tend to drift or develop fault overtime and the entire monitoring and analytical insights are dependent on reliability and correctness of this IoT data. So taking these things into account, we are now evaluating our research project called Dependable IoT for these low-cost air pollution sensors. Dependable IoT helps in automatically identifying and validating the drift or malfunction in the sensors and notifies for recalibration or replacement. So currently we are working with a few startups in this space to evaluate dependable IoT Technology and as the project name such as this is not only limited to air pollution sensing, but this technology is applicable for many other use cases for IoT sensing- in agriculture, food technology or in healthcare. So I guess this gives you a view on some of the diverse projects that now we are doing and working on at present in SCAI. Sridhar Vedantham: Yeah, so this Dependable IoT thing sounds quite interesting. So correct me if I'm wrong, but essentially, what we're saying is that we're trying to figure out ways in which we can ensure that the data that we're receiving in order to extract information from it and make decisions- we're actually trying to figure out our trying to make sure that the data itself is solid. Tanuja Ganu: Absolutely. That's correct, Sridhar, and it's like monitoring the monitor, right? So while we're doing the IoT monitoring and sensing, we need to make sure that the technology that we're putting in place is being monitored and it's giving us reliable and correct data. Sridhar Vedantham: Great. Now what's also coming across to me throughout this conversation is that given the variety of projects and the variety of collaborators that you're looking at in SCAI- would I be right in saying that the kind of people that you have in SCAI in addition to the researchers, obviously who are your internal collaborators, the people who are part of SCAI, are they a very diverse and varied set of people? Tanuja Ganu: Yes, absolutely true, Sridhar. As we discussed earlier, SCAI’s an interdisciplinary team that consists of social scientists, CS researchers, solid software engineers and designers. And we also have a program called SCAI Fellows where fresh under graduates or the candidates who are already working in the industry can join on the specific SCAI project for a fixed time period and contribute towards the development of SCAI project. So particularly in SCAI, in addition to all these technical or academic skills, we're also looking for people who have passion for societal impact and willingness to do the field work and deployment to scale a research idea. Sridhar Vedantham: OK, and you know, you might at any point of time be working on say, four, five or six projects. Uh, what happens to these projects once they are completed? Tanuja Ganu: Yeah, so I would say each project would have a different graduation plan. So whenever a project is complete from the SCAI perspective, we call it as a graduation plan where we would define how this project would then sustainably grow further internally or externally. And this graduation plan would be different for different projects depending upon the nature of the project. So for some of the projects, the graduation plan could be an independent entity that is spun off to take the journey of the project forward by scaling the initial idea to more people, more geographies, or for more use cases. A very good example of this type of graduation plan is a MSR project called 99 DOTS, where researchers like Bill Thies and others at Microsoft Research started this project to address medical adherence for tuberculosis. Over the years, this work has significantly grown and there is an independent entity spun off called Everwell to take the 99 DOTS journey forward. The other type of graduation plan can be putting up a work and technology in the open source wherein the external social enterprises, NGOs or our collaborators can build on top of it and take the solution forward at larger scale. The example of this is our work on interactive machine translation, where we have open sourced our initial work and various collaborators are now using, validating and building on top of this technology. Sridhar Vedantham: OK, and does the work that you do in SCAI or say the validation that you're looking for from research projects or the validation you're looking at of research projects through SCAI- does that feed back further into the research itself, or does it kind of just stay at SCAI? Tanuja Ganu: So, it has two or I would say it would have multiple pathways, but primarily the first thing is certainly the work that we're doing is validating certain research hypothesis that we do have. So some of the output or outcome of these SCAI projects is feeding back into the research areas and validating or invalidating the hypothesis to say how the technology is helping to solve a particular research problem or not. But also if the intervention is successful, it would be useful for external collaborators internally, externally for them to take up this idea forward and utilize the technology that we have built at SCAI to taking it to larger scale. Sridhar Vedantham: OK, so once again coming back to the fact that the projects that you do are of such different nature, how do you actually even define success metrics for SCAI projects? Tanuja Ganu: Yeah, this is a very interesting question, Sridhar. So, the whole purpose of SCAI, as the name suggests, is about bringing social impact through technology innovations. So there is no one fixed set of metrics that would be applicable for each and every project at SCAI. But our success metrics for these projects are geared towards validating whether technological interventions can support the people and ecosystem and actually help address a specific problem or not. And if it does help solve the problem, then how can we amplify the positive effect using technology? So those are really the metrics that we're defining on each of the project depending upon nature of the project. Sridhar Vedantham: So Tanuja, thank you so much for your time. This has been a great conversation and all the best for going forward in SCAI. Tanuja Ganu: Thank you, Sridhar, for having me here and I really enjoyed discussing these projects and ideas with you. Thank you. [Music Ends]

I’m at the SCAI conference in New Orleans Louisiana this week. It’s the Society for Cardiovascular and Angiography Interventions. Basically, it’s a conference with a heavy focus on unclogging arteries. Why is this important? Cardiovascular disease is the #1 killer in the United States. Peripheral Artery Disease, which targets the peripherals, mainly the legs, impacts more than 50% of people over the age of 60. It used to be that invasive surgical procedures such as bypasses or even amputation were the go-to solutions. But advances in technology are such that now interventional cardiologists, with only a small hole in the body, not larger than a pencil eraser, can reach into the arteries with small devices to unclog blocked arteries and keep the blood flowing. At the forefront of cutting edge technology for cardiology is Dr. Ehtisham Mahmud, Chief of Cardiovascular Medicine for UC San Diego Health System. He is co-director of the SCAI Conference and always has the pulse on what’s new and what’s next. He’s one of the most sought after doctors in this space for new medical technology studies around the world, including the latest laser technology by Ra Medical Systems which uses photomolecular ablation much like is used in LASIK surgery for your eyes, to unclog arteries, and also he’s one of the first to be using robotics in his interventions. His colleague, who plays a critical role in key studies on new technologies at the University joins the second half of the show to share his insights as well. Dr. Mitul Patel is an Associate Clinical Professor of Medicine, Interventional Cardiology, Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, for the UC San Diego Health System. Listen to the show to hear Dr. Mahmud and Dr. Pitel talk about how doctors may be turning into gamers as a joystick is replacing their hands in the operating room, or as Interventional Cardiologists call it, the ‘Cath Lab’. Nearly 800 robotic procedures have been performed across the country. Dr. Mahmud shares late breaking news on the findings of the latest study, which spanned the country. He also discusses how a $3.1 million dollar grant is helping his team to discover new ways to heal tissue damage, caused by oxygen starvation because of lack of blood flow, using regenerative medicine. Plus, if you’re an entrepreneur who wants to innovate in the healthcare space, the doctors share what’s most important to them. Finally, you don’t want to miss their potentially life-saving advice for patients. Dr. Pitel shares the critical questions you should ask your doctor to ensure you are getting the most advanced care available, including new technology and techniques.
