In this episode of To The Root, Robyn Spangler takes a deep dive into Spironolactone—one of the most commonly prescribed medications for hormonal acne. Originally developed to treat high blood pressure, this medication has gained popularity for its ability to reduce androgen-driven acne.

She also discusses key considerations such as potential rebound breakouts, the role of potassium balance, and what its effectiveness (or lack thereof) can reveal about your underlying skin health. Whether you're currently using Spironolactone, considering it, or looking for long-term solutions, this episode provides essential insights to help you make informed decisions about your skincare journey.Tune in now to gain clarity on Spironolactone's role in acne treatment and explore holistic strategies for lasting skin health!Highlights: Understanding Androgen-Driven Acne: How Spironolactone suppresses androgens and its impact on sebum production.Rebound Effects & Discontinuation: Why acne may return after stopping the medication and how to prevent it.The Role of Potassium: How Spironolactone affects potassium levels and why proper mineral balance is crucial.Assessing Your Acne Type: What it means if Spironolactone worked for you—or didn't—and how that can guide your root cause approach.Long-Term Considerations: Why addressing underlying factors like insulin resistance, stress, and hormonal imbalances is key to sustainable skin health.Connect with Robyn:Instagram: @nutritionbyrobyn Website: https://www.theclearskinlab.com

SECOND THING: Amy's giving facial fitness a go as she takes a break from Botox (because she fears muscle atrophy!!) and she's just working out her face from videos on YouTube. Below are a few that she likes so far. As for Botox, she shares some tips on how to avoid muscle atrophy if you're still getting injections (which she likely will do again one day herself!) 10-Minute Exclusive Face Fitness Practice 5 min massage for changing your face! 10 Minute Face Yoga To Do Each Evening To Lift And Firm The Skin THIRD THING: Amy opens up about her personal decision to stop taking Adderall for ADHD and Spironolactone for her face. Medications like Adderall and Spironolactone have their place and can be highly effective, but it’s essential to evaluate their role in your life continually. FOURTH THING: Amy shares a quote that fits the theme of today's episode. "Shedding is necessary. Letting go of what no longer serves us creates space for growth, for new things to flourish." -Unknown HOST: Amy Brown // RadioAmy.com // @RadioAmySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

JACC Associate Editor Michelle M. Kittleson, MD, PhD, FACC, interviews author Mikhail Kosiborod, MD, FACC about his REALIZE-K study published in JACC and presented at AHA. In participants with HFrEF and hyperkalemia, SZC led to large improvements in the percentage of participants with normokalemia while on optimal spironolactone dose, and reduced risk of hyperkalemia and down-titration/discontinuation of spironolactone. More participants had HF events with SZC than placebo; this difference was limited to those with very high NTproBNP levels.

Send us a message with this link, we would love to hear from you. Standard message rates may apply. In this episode of Your Checkup, we dive into simple, effective ways to start managing acne at home. From understanding the importance of cleansing routines to selecting the right over-the-counter treatments, we'll guide you through the basics of skincare that can make a big difference. Tune in to learn how to tackle common triggers like excess oil, clogged pores, and inflammation, while also debunking popular acne myths that could be holding you back from clearer skin. Whether you're dealing with breakouts or want to prevent them, this episode is your starting point! Please find out detailed show notes below Acne BasicsAcne is the most common skin disorder in North America, affecting 85% of teenagers.Pimples form when skin cells block a hair follicle. This is made worse by oil (sebum) production and bacteria on the skin.Acne SeverityAcne can range from mild to moderate to severe.At-home treatments can usually handle mild acne. Moderate and severe acne usually require prescription medications from a primary care doctor or dermatologist.Acne Treatment LayersHygiene: Wash your face no more than two times a day with a gentle, non-soap cleanser and warm water. Don't use washcloths or loofahs.Moisturization: Use a non-comedogenic moisturizer, especially if other treatments dry out your skin.Sun Protection: Protect your skin from the sun with sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) or protective clothing. Too much sun can worsen acne and age your skin.Over-the-Counter Treatments for Mild AcneTopical Retinoids: Adapalene 0.1% gel is the only topical retinoid available over the counter in the US.Apply a thin layer to the entire affected area (don't spot treat) once a day, usually at night. Start every other night to reduce irritation, working up to every night over a few weeks.Use a pea-sized amount for the entire face and make sure your skin is dry.Don't use with benzoyl peroxide.Benzoyl Peroxide: Comes in cleansers, gels, lotions, creams, pads, masks, and washes. Concentrations range from 2.5% to 10%.Apply once a day.Benzoyl peroxide can bleach fabric and hair.Salicylic Acid: A good alternative if your skin can't tolerate topical retinoids.These treatments may take up to 12 weeks to work.Combination TherapyUsing benzoyl peroxide in the morning and a retinoid at night can be effective.Sometimes topical clindamycin is used with benzoyl peroxide.Treatment for Moderate to Severe AcneFor severe or widespread acne, or acne that's causing scarring, doctors will start systemic therapy right away, instead of waiting to see if topical treatments work.Doxycycline is an antibiotic that reduces inflammation and fights bacteria.Spironolactone is a medication that can help regulate hormones.IsotretinoinImportant NotesDon't pick or squeeze pimples: This can worsen acne and may cause swelling and scarring.Be patient: It can take several weeks for treatments to show results.Talk to a doctor: If you have concerns about your acne or at-home treatments aren't working,Support the showProduction and Content: Edward Delesky, MD & Nicole Aruffo, RNArtwork: Olivia Pawlowski
Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Renne: hi dr. cabral! after many years of stubborn acne and not seeing the results from my functional efforts, i reached a point where i was willing to try spironolactone for reducing androgen production. after only 8 days on 50mg, i developed intense right side flank/kidney pain that was also associated with heart flutters. i stopped the meds and everything subsided after 3 or so days. could my low potassium have caused this? any thoughts? Angie: Thank you for making functional medicine more accessible and affordable to all! I have a few questions…. How do I know what podcast episode to listen to for the answers? I did the two week detox and I still don't feel well. I didn't lose any weight, I was hungry the whole time, my stomach still feels bloated and I am still gassy. What now? Also can you tell me what you think of Truvani's products by the food babe? Lorie: My right eye waters off and on all day long. Especially in the cold, or when air blows on me. It is not dry eye or a problem with my tear duct being blocked. Is there anything I can do for it? The eye doctors have not been able to help me. This has been going on for at least 15 years. Thank you Mia: I have been dealing with gut issues for a while and recently developed Mast cell activation syndrome. Could the root cause of MCAS be the gut issues? And, could dealing with that could resolve the MCAS?I keep hearing MCAS is progressive and not curable (and mine is progressively getting worse every few months) and am very scared because the symptoms of MCAS are quite terrible. Is there any suggested testing or tips to dealing with it? Terri: Hi Dr. Cabral~ Thank you for having the best podcast ANYWHERE and for being so generous with your time and knowledge. I am a 61-year-old woman and have normal, although probably not optimal, thyroid levels. I recently shot up rather suddenly into the 6+ TSH range with really no explanation that I can think of from a dietary or environmental exposure standpoint. My question is… I had a few recent incidences of ingesting an NAC supplement with an inadequate amount of water and the burning in my throat was excruciating and lasted about 15-20 minutes each time. Is it possible that this could have damaged my thyroid and if so, is it reparable? Thanks so much for taking my question!

Real Life Pharmacology - Pharmacology Education for Health Care Professionals
On this episode of the Real Life Pharmacology Podcast, I cover 5 more medications of the top 200. Fenofibrate is a medication used primarily to reduce triglycerides. This medication differs from statins which tend to focus on LDL management. Doxazosin is an alpha-blocker. The primary indications of doxazosin are hypertension and BPH. Naproxen is an NSAID. Of all the NSAIDs, naproxen is one of the lower-risk agents with regard to cardiovascular risk. Spironolactone is an aldosterone antagonist and also classified as a potassium sparing diuretic. Memantine is an NMDA antagonist that is indicated for the management of Alzheimer's dementia.

Today, we're exposing truths, debunking myths, and sharing personal stories from our own encounters with acne medications. We unpack the allure and limitations of isotretinoin, a medication once hailed as a 'miracle drug,' detailing its wide range of potential side effects, from dryness to birth defects. Through personal clinical experiences, we discuss the gravity of choices around medication, reminding you that while isotretinoin can target acne causes like excess oil and inflammation, it may not address the root problem.Switching gears, we also explore the multifaceted impact of birth control pills and highlight the importance of understanding bodily responses to hormonal changes. From gut health to mental well-being, we paint a holistic picture of the consequences of birth control and the concept of estrogen dominance, proving that education is pivotal!In this episode, we discuss:Birth Control and Acne MedicationsImportance of Medical SupervisionPersonal Experiences with Birth ControlEstrogen Dominance and CandidaRegulating Detoxification ProcessesTransitioning off Birth ControlAre you ready to embark on a journey of informed health choices?

In today's episode, I, your host Ashlene, am excited to share the inspiring story of Olivia, a woman I had the privilege of working with last year. Olivia's journey highlights the transformative power of relinquishing the struggle to control her health and instead embracing a path of healing. Her experience resonates with many women who grapple with hormonal imbalances, experiencing a sense of chaos and frustration in their health journeys. Olivia's insights provide a fresh perspective on addressing the root cause of PCOS-related hormonal imbalances, offering valuable lessons for anyone navigating similar challenges.Olivia's Struggles:Olivia, 31 years old, grappled with a myriad of symptoms including acne, irregular periods, and mood swings, which greatly impacted her self-esteem and confidence. Despite trying various treatments such as Accutane and Spironolactone, Olivia found herself in a relentless battle against her symptoms, feeling disconnected from her body and trapped in a cycle of despair. Through her healing journey, Olivia began to see her body in a new light and embrace a new mindset toward creating the health she wanted.My hope in this episode is that Olivia's journey reminds you of the importance of approaching health with patience, understanding, and a willingness to listen to the body's signals. Through Olivia's experience, I encourage you to reflect on your mindset towards your health and explore new ways of nurturing your body towards harmony and well-being.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause hereThe full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at:https://nourishedtohealthy.com/95Let's continue the conversation on Instagram!

Jamie McGuire joins me on this episode to challenge mainstream beauty and health standards! I so admire how outspoken and well-rounded Jamie is when it comes to not just skin health, but overall well-being. We chat about her journey to how she got to where she is now as an integrative skin AND gut health coach (and why I think those two things should always go hand-in-hand). We discuss why the sun might not be as scary/damaging for us as we've been told, how seed oils can make you burn faster, what the deal is with all those awful acne-targeted medications like Accutane and Spironolactone, is Tretinoin actually a holy grail, should we be washing our faces in the morning, and are lasers in or out?!

Welcome to the Hot Topics podcast from NB Medical with Dr Neal Tucker. The highlight of this episode is our interview with Prof Miriam Santer, lead author of recent research in the BMJ exploring the effectiveness of spironolactone for acne in women. Does it work? Is it a treatment for general practice? And if so, is it safe, what monitoring is required, and where does it fit with current acne pathways?In the news, we think about the current issues around physician associates in general practice. In research we have two papers on diabetes: first, in the Lancet, is a new once-weekly insulin injection as effective as a daily treatment for type 1 diabetes; and second, in JAMA, is the additional tirzepatide better than prandial insulin in addition to glargine for managing type 2 diabetes?

Here to join us in conversation about it are two of the authors, who are also endocrinologists at RMA of New York, Dr. Atoosa Ghofranian and Dr. Kimberley Thornton. Tune in now to hear more about Spironolactone and its uses, where their research question stemmed from including the story behind the interest in this project, highlights from the study's findings, and more.
Real Life Pharmacology - Pharmacology Education for Health Care Professionals
On this episode, I discuss spironolactone pharmacology, adverse effects, drug interactions and much more. Spironolactone has numerous indications including hypertension, CHF, ascites, and acne. I break them all down in this podcast episode. Hyperkalemia is a major concern with spironolactone. Patients with baseline levels at 5 or above should generally avoid this medication. Gynecomastia is one of the most commonly tested adverse effects of spironolactone. Be sure you don't miss this one on your board and pharmacology exams!
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that can benefit greatly from diet and lifestyle therapies. In this episode Cody leads us in a discussion about the best diet for PCOS, which should be part of a your treatment approach to this complex condition.Often, once diagnosed with PCOS the initial treatment options include hormonal birth control, Metformin, and perhaps Spironolactone. While all of these can be beneficial for some women, they aren't often enough in the management of PCOS symptoms. Tune into today's episode to learn how powerful nutrition and lifestyle strategies can be some of the most effective "medicine" for you.Did you learn something new today?

If you have PCOS or have struggled with acne, you have likely heard your doctor mention Spironolactone. While this medication is intended for hypertension, edema, and heart failure, it is a common pharmaceutical prescribed for PCOS. On today's Friday Chats episode, I'll cover why it's used for PCOS, the potential side effects, and more specifics on requirements for being diagnosed with PCOS. I'm here to empower you to better understand how to make daily decisions that can heal your PCOS naturally! --- Fullscript Supplement Dispensary
If you've been following the show for a while, you may have noticed that we talk a lot about acne, and this is no accident. Adult acne is becoming increasingly more common, and with that, prescriptions for medications designed to treat acne are also on the rise. It's no surprise that more and more people are turning to medications, like antibiotics, Accutane, and Spironolactone as a solution to clear their skin. In fact, according to the American Osteopathic College of Dermatology, over 2 million people have taken Accutane to date. While these treatments have become commonplace in acne management, they aren't the magic overnight solution they're often made out to be... and in my opinion, should be considered carefully if your doctor has recommended them for you. So in today's episode, we will uncover the truth behind these acne medications, including how they work, why they are a temporary bandaid, and some important side effects you will definitely want to consider.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog. BioBalance Health® pellets are very safe and not painful to have inserted. They are also the easiest form of hormone replacement a woman can have because the dose is adapted every 4 months and our patients only have to think about their hormones three times a year. BioBalance Pellet therapy is associated with fewer side effects than any other hormone replacement, and we have a 95% success rate for resolving the symptoms of menopause and testosterone loss. Women's lives are drastically impaired at menopause. BioBalance, and T pellets improve their quality of life to the level of quality they had before they were 40. Dosage and pellet side effects are specific to the individual and it may take us a few pellet insertions and blood tests to get the ideal result. Finding your perfect fit is like having a custom suit made: hormone balance requires patience and several fittings, before we determine your maintenance dose, which will direct your dose of E/T for follow up pellet insertions. We give a handout to each patient when she checks out after her first pellet insertion. We ask patients to follow the instructions given to them verbally and in writing in our office. Risks of pellet insertion procedure, risk of taking estradiol and risk of taking testosterone are rare, but patients are given this handout, so they know what to expect. These same risks are on their consent that they read and sign before they even come to the office the first time. Here are the most important instructions for immediate care of the insertion site: · Take the pressure dressing off in 3 HOURS · Take the steri-strip off in 3 DAYS · Don't traumatize your incisional area · If you are allergic to tape please tell us · For three days don't submerge in water—hot tubs, bathtubs, the lake, a stream, or the ocean. · For three days don't exercise · Don't take oral or IV steroids if it is not life-threatening Please tell us if you are on steroids or take blood thinners so we can alter our treatment plan. The risks of the pellet insertion procedure include: · Infection · Bleeding, · Bruising · Allergic reactions · Swelling · Pain · Reaction to the lidocaine with epinephrine :shakiness and anxiety, lasts a short period of time, and is not permanent. Tell us if you have this side effect, and we will use lidocaine without epinephrine the next insertion. · Keloid scarring As is usual for medicine , individual patients have a higher risk based on their medical history. Patients who are at higher risk for complications secondary to the pellet insertion procedure in patients who are: · Diabetic · Have an autoimmune disease · Take steroids · Have a clotting/bleeding disorder · Keloid former · If you have many allergies · If you have orthopedic implants that require antibiotics at the dentist, then you should tell us so we can give you antibiotics. Risks of taking testosterone pellets with BioBalance Health® in the first few weeks or months and are transient. These side effects usually resolve on their own without treatment. The transient risks of testosterone treatment include: · Over the top sex drive=Hypersexuality · Vaginal itching from increased blood flow—it is not an infection · Facial hair and acne (Prevented with Spironolactone preventive treatment) · Weight gain from muscle mass and sometimes from conversion of testosterone into estrone which is a genetic risk. · Increased muscle mass that is confused with weight gain. · Lowered voice is only a problem when you are a singer. Generally, those who think they have a lowered voice really have reflux and it has nothing to do with testosterone pellets. · Clitoral enlargement—this is a reaction to a new testosterone exposure, and generally will go away in the following few months. · Thinning of hair at the temples and crown (Prevented with Spironolactone preventive treatment) Women can take testosterone without estrogen before menopause, and after menopause if requested, however the symptoms of menopause will not be completely resolved with testosterone only pellets. The risks of estradiol pellets are higher for patients with a uterus, than those women who have had a hysterectomy. Those women with a uterus have the following risks: • Uterine bleeding, growth of fibroids: Estradiol of any kind - pellets, pills, patches etc. - can stimulate the uterus to bleed. This can come from a thick lining, adenomyosis (spongy uterus), or fibroids. Prescribing progesterone, optimally sub-lingual progesterone or BLA progesterone from Belmar pharmacy, taken 1-2 times a day, counteracts this. Other treatments are surgical and offered by your Gyn. Your doctor will evaluate you for treatments: uterine wall ablation (80% effective), or a Mirena IUD. Sometimes bleeding will necessitate the choice between a hysterectomy and contin Risks of estradiol pellets for women with and without a uterus: · Vaginal discharge: Estradiol increases the moisture in your vagina. This is a gift to some and a curse to others. This wetness is not an infection, but a normal response of the vagina to estradiol. It needs no treatment, but if it bothers you, then the choice might be that you might have to stop getting estradiol of any kind, or just put up with the wetness, or decrease the estradiol dose with the next insertion. · Bloating: This is sometimes caused by too high a dose of estradiol for a particular person, or the conversion of estradiol into estrone, which causes water weight gain. Some women need progesterone to balance the estradiol, to treat bloating. Others require a diuretic, or a low carb diet, thyroid medication, DIM supplementation or more exercise. Most of the time this symptom will resolve itself in a few weeks after it starts, as the body balances itself out. Bloating has many non-hormonal causes as well. · Anxiety/Depression: Most women's anxiety decreases as estradiol levels rise, but others feel irritable, and for this occurs only in a small subset of the population. For those patients we add progesterone SL (Sublingual tablets) to their regimen, and they improve. Think about whether you stopped your antidepressant when you started pellets. This is a premature move and can cause women to emotionally crash. Please continue your anti-anxiety medications, or your anti-depressants until 4-6 months has passed, and have the prescribing doctor help you wean off. · Breast tenderness: This symptom is usually from a hormone called estrone, and not estradiol, but breasts that have not been exposed to estradiol for years sometimes hurt as they “wake-up”. This is generally limited to a month during the first pellet cycle. The product DIM can alleviate this symptom. Remember that stimulation of the breast can also cause them to swell and hurt! In rare patients, progesterone can cause breast tenderness. · Weight Gain: Weight gain occurs for many reasons especially over the Holidays. Other times water weight gain can come from Estradiol. This water weight is self-limited and sometimes requires progesterone balancing, a diuretic, or thyroid replacement, increase of protein and decrease of carbohydrates and alcohol. • Migraine headaches: Estradiol in high levels that increase and decrease drastically destabilize the neurotransmitters and can instigate a migraine headache. Pellets increase very slowly, and decrease very slowly, so either your headache is a tension headache and not a migraine, or has a trigger other than estradiol, such as stress, weather change, or food allergies. Migraines generally improve on Estradiol and Testosterone pellets.

Show notes - Cardio-Obstetrics and Heart Failure Case 1 Synopsis: A woman in her earlier 30s, G1P1, with a history significant for peripartum cardiomyopathy presents to clinic for pre-conception counseling. Her prior pregnancy was in her late 20s with an uneventful pre-natal course and a spontaneous vaginal delivery at 37w2d. Two weeks after delivery, she experienced symptoms of heart failure and was found to have a new diagnosis of HFrEF. At that time TTE showed LVEF 30-35%, LVIDd 5.1cm (top normal size), diffuse hypokinesis. At that time, she was diuresed and discharged on metoprolol succinate 25mg po daily and furosemide 20mg po daily. She had one follow up visit 6 months postpartum and the furosemide was discontinued. Today in your office, she has NYHA Class I symptoms with no signs of symptoms of congestion. She walks daily and does vigorous exercise 1-2 times per week, while remaining on metoprolol. Repeat TTE with LVEF 45-50% and similar LV size. She would like to have another child and was referred to you for counseling. Case 1 Rounding Pearls: Dr. Walsh discussed extensively the importance of full GDMT in this patient who was initially undertreated with only a beta blocker. If patients are breastfeeding, clinicians should consider the addition of ACE-Inhibitor and Spironolactone. Otherwise, if not breastfeeding, they should receive maximally tolerated doses of full GDMT. For more details on medical therapy for Heart Failure during pregnancy and after, refer to this previous CardioNerds Episode with Dr. Julie Damp. Patients with peripartum cardiomyopathy are at highest risk of worsening LV systolic function when they have persistent LV systolic dysfunction from their initial diagnosis. In this circumstance, shared decision making is paramount. These patients should receive counseling on contraception and risk of pregnancy on worsening LV function, death, & fetal demise. In addition, counseling includes discussing with patients limited options in some states for complete, comprehensive reproductive care, including pregnancy termination. If patients with prior peripartum cardiomyopathy do become pregnant, a team-based approach including cardiologists, maternal fetal medicine, and obstetrics (amongst other team members) is essential to determine care & delivery timing/method. These patients should also be examined for signs of decompensation throughout the pregnancy, including rales, S3 or a reported history of PND.

Heart Failure (HF)- Can occur without congestion or fluid retention - Characterized by fatigue, fluid retention, SOB, PND, orthopnea - We should consider the same urgency for heart failure as patients with CAD and CA. Heart Failure Preserved/Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFpEF/HFrEF)- HFpEF is a Preserved Ejcetion Fraction over about 50% - HFpEF - congestive phenotype more of a fluid retention - an exercise intolerant phenotupe where the patient becomes intolerant of exercise induced dyspnea. - Pulm HTN phenotype - Increased pressure in the heart that gets transmitted to the lungs - HRrEF is Reduced EF is usually below 40% Medications- 4 classes of medications (MRAs, BB, SGLT2, ARNIs) - Treatment with mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) has been demonstrated to improve clinical outcomes in patients with HFrEF with mild to severe symptoms and also in patients with left ventricular dysfunciton after myocardial infarction. - SGLT2 inhibitors reduced the risk of cardiovascular death and hospitalizations for heart failure in a broad range of patients with heart failure, supporting their role as a foundational therapy for heart failure, irrespective of ejection fraction or care setting. - ARNI (angiotensin receptor/neprilysin inhibitor) medication is a newer treatment for heart failure. The combination of sacubitril and valsartan has helped people live longer and have a better quality of life. - Comprehensive EF therapy involves BB, ARNI, MRAs, angiotensin receptor/neprilysin inhibitors. Spironolactone, SGLT2 inhibitors. Treatment- Traditional therapy usually involves a BB and ACE inhibitor. - Currently we should be looking at comprehensive therapy when it comes to HF treatment. - STOP USING LISINOPRIL.- SGLT2 inhibitors contraindicated ketoacidosis, amputation UTI, weight loss - (SGLT2 inhibitors) DAPA-HF trial showed that dapagliflozin was superior to placebo at preventing cardiovascular deaths and heart failure events among patients with heart failure. (Source: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1911303#article_citing_articles ) - Catheterization - a vast majority of HF patients will need a right heart catheterization. - Cardiac pulmonary pressure monitoring Cardio MEMS - same day outpatient surgery which helps with medication adjustments and hospitalization in half. Works regardless of EF. - CardioVere laser spectroscopy which uses different wavelengths to detect light characteristics to determine the level of edema/fluid present wihin someone's tissues. Currently in development. - Casana is a toilet seat with certain sensors that detect and monitor impedance that check levels between different tissues, monitors HR and weight. - Cardiac contractility modulation causing electrical stumulation during a particular contraction of the myocyets it will augment potential (like a pacemeaker). -CORCHINCH - HF trial catheter based device that cinches up the heart, thereby making it smaller. It works more efficiently. (Source: Clinical Evaluation of the AccuCinch® Ventricular Restoration System in Patients Who Present With Symptomatic Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFrEF): The CORCINCH-HF Study) Novel Treatments- Atrial shunting procedure is investigational trials. Potentially impactful in exercise capacity and pressures but stay tuned as the verdict is not out. HfPEF exercise induced intolerance may be the best candidate. - SVC trial feasibility trial more durable effects of cardiac output. Stay tuned. - LVAD for advanced therapies. Sometimes a bridge for candidacy as well as recovery. - Biventricular pacing has shown promise. *Heart failure is a problematic clinical disease entity with significant morbidity and mortality often leading to comprehensive medical management. It is often beneficial to enlist the help of our heart failure colleagues for these complicated patients.
