Many #VExUS enthusiasts asked for a #tweetorial on image acquisition pearls. Did one b4 but time for an updated one 🧵
#1 Let's start with basics
Color Doppler identifies the flow tells the direction (blue is away & red towards the probe [BART])

Also premature closure is severe AR or Av block. I'm an mode lover Always use it. Always gives useful information.
I'm in my 70s, 40 years using echo. My younger colleagues does not use it, I always teach many times with clinical cases

Pleased to have had the opportunity to write this CJASN editorial @asnpublications on the USE-the-FORCE-for-Acute Kidney Injury trial by our Canadian colleagues.

I'm especially glad to see mainstream #nephrology journals taking interest in multi-organ #POCUS. Even better, I managed to sneak my proprietary hemodynamic circuit illustration into the article!!

High-output heart failure associated with arteriovenous fistula remains an underrecognized, albeit well-described, clinical entity. This is a nice case with illustrative images - doi: 10.1016/j.jaccas.2026.107193. PMID: 41770183

It has been a true pleasure working with you on this paper. You have a unique talent for adding valuable #POCUS expertise to any clinical discussion and translating physiology into practical bedside care. Excited to see where this work leads next. @UFNephrology @UFMedicine

Excited to share our latest review in @TransplantJrnl on hepato-cardio-renal interactions, #POCUS and #transplant implications. Honored to collaborate with Prof. @AmirKazory, a pioneer in this field who coined the term hepato-cardio-renal syndrome.

Glad to see a major transplant journal taking interest in multi-organ POCUS and bedside hemodynamic phenotyping.
Much more research is needed in this area, but meaningful progress will require equally strong efforts in education and training.

An apical 4-chamber view of the heart was then obtained, which showed new focal wall motion abnormalities in the apex of the heart.

Congratulations! 💐💐
A terrific informative editorial and a well-deserved recognition of your leadership in this space. And as a bonus, seeing your signature hemodynamic circuit illustration make its way into CJASN is the perfect finishing touch. Well done! @UFNephrology

Hepatic vein Doppler.
S>D or S<D?
Answer the poll below honestly and then see the image with EKG.

I’ve started a Substack: The Dependent Variable.
X is great for short-form discussion, but it’s not ideal for building a coherent archive.
This will be the home for longer-form writing on cardiovascular physiology, haemodynamics, fluids, shock, ultrasound and critical care reasoning. All in one place, easier to follow and return to.
