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
So many great in depth, funny, and real life connections at #CAPPLive @CardioApp ❤️ cheers to the best @APAC_Cardiology board who helped plan, and friends/colleagues @ParkNicollet speakers 🎉

As President of @APAC_Cardiology and course director of #CAPPLive I am so thankful for the APAC board, FocusMed, and partners who realize the importance of connecting and educating APPs. I am humbled… can’t wait for next year!!
So great to connect with these thought leaders in the new psychology work group! Thanks @ACCinTouch for the opportunity!
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! ☀️🙏🏽🫀
Now, ✈️time to hug my fam!
Another amazing talk by @VietHeartPA - ask him about his feelings on OTC fish oil … if you want to pick a fight 😉
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!
Final Question!
Question 10: If you could have dinner with any pioneer in cardiology, living or deceased, who would it be and what question would you ask them?

@leyadiel @Lross246 @VietHeartPA @APAC_Cardiology
Everyone can learn how to save time and make more money in clinic with group visits! Please introduce yourself and meet the @APAC_Cardiology crew at the PA forum!🎉 @VietHeartPA @Brian_RosePA @AmySimonePA @ACCinTouch #ACCCVT @baileyannRN
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

A9 #PreACCChat more cowbell, I mean GLP-1s! Nuts and bolts for those contemplating starting a cardiometabolic clinic
Question 9: What emerging drug class are you most interested in learning more about from #ACC24?
#PreACCchat #Cardiology
@leyadiel @Lross246 @VietHeartPA @APAC_Cardiology
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.
The availability of these new pathways is truly amazing!
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 🤔
Question 7: What trial from #ACC24 do you think we will be talking about most 5 years from now?
#PreAccChat #Cardiology
@VietHeartPA @Lross246 @leyadiel @APAC_Cardiology
A6 #PreACCChat great list @VietHeartPA, will you attend the mediation session at the lounge Sunday April 7th at 7:30am?
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.
There is a new ACC psychology group, such a privilege to be part of this - CV team lounge 4/6 2:30-3:00 Hearts and Minds unite: learn more about the psychology work group. 4/6 5:00-5:30 Stigma of mental health in cardiology. @dranulala @Andrea_Price317 @RThachilMD @Aheartdoc
Question 6: Are there any conditions or topics you think should be a more prominent focal point at this year's meeting?

A5 looking most forward to the Puppy booth in the exhibitor space #PreACCChat - they should study the BP pre and post visit 🤔 @VietHeartPA . Also connecting with friends that we have only virtually met - such a great reunion!
Question 5: Outside of late-breaking data, what session or sessions are you most looking forward to at this year's meeting?
#PreACCchat #ACC24 #Cardiology
@VietHeartPA @Lross246 @leyadiel
#PreACCChat A3 is there anything SGLT2i can’t do? EMPACT-MI with Empagliflozin🎉 we also need more options for triglyceride treatment so looking forward to BRIDGE-TIMI with Olezarsen @VietHeartPA
Honestly, we are now in an era where GLP1Ra are repeating the successes seen from the SGLT2i across the HF/CKD/Metabolic space!!!
#PreACCChat
#PreACCChat A3 clearly the CLEAR trial, finally another option for high risk patients who cannot get the LDL to goal with positive outcome data!
Question 3: What is one study from ACC.23 that influenced the way you practiced in the last year?
