I prescribed a dog 🐕 for the first time for a widower with a cardiomyopathy who was feeling blue in this time of social distancing. He reported today this is the best he has felt in years💗! 🤔adjunct to medical therapy? @VietHeartPA@DrMarthaGulati#DogsofTwittter@DBelardoMD
That’s a wrap #ACC24! What a meeting!!!! @DougDrachmanMD & @KBerlacher thank you & @ACCinTouch staff & prgrm committee for all your hard work!! Wonderful sharing science, being inspired, & connecting w/friends, colleagues & mentors! ☀️🙏🏽🫀

A10#PreACCChat - so many with ties to ACC…. Dr. Gruentzig stands out - check out these pictures from the lobby of the @ACCinTouch heart house working things out on the kitchen table- his innovation and conviction are inspiring, only matched by the trust of that first patient!
I think @Lross246 session on group visits is VERY APP-centric but should be attended by EVERYONE.
Also, open invitation to all to join us at the PA Forum Sunday 1-4 pm est at the CVT Lounge

A8 #PreACCChat team based care has been made a priority at ACC, so it’s easy to not only rub elbows but be on committees with leaders in their field like @_WayneBatchelor and @AspryKarenMD and meet in person at ACC !
A8 #PreACCChat
ACC is the confluence of sub-specialties in cardiology. I enjoy membership is several sub-specialty organizations and still find that ACC stands as an intentional space where siloes are broken, thoughts are mixed, and advancements can become amplified.
A7 #PreACCChat
The siRNA model of therapeutic delivery is a game changer. We now have Lp(a) studies, and Zilbesiran (Kardia-2), and FDA approved inclisiran.
Will we have a multi-injection of siRNA for Lp(a)/LDL/HTN?
A7 #PreACCChat Ultimate DAPT Trial, imagine if only one month Ticagror treatment compared to the 12 months of DAPT standard of care for so long is positive? 💲 and 🩸 risk ⬇️Also interested in the TACTiC trial- technology assisted nonprescription Rosuvastatin 🤖 outcomes 🤔
A6 #PreACCChat
Focus on scicomm; shared decision making #SDM; hot to break disease, prognosis, treatment, and expectations news with patients, their clinicians (our colleagues), and the community.
