A US-based cardiology podcast created in 2019 by Dr Amit Goyal and Dr Daniel Ambinder. It provides in-depth discussions of clinical cardiology topics, current guidelines, and expert interviews to enhance cardiology education and patient care.
The key lesson is to stop treating palliative care as the final chapter of heart failure. Recurrent admissions, worsening renal function, escalating diuretics or shock should trigger earlier serious illness conversations, better choice awareness around LVAD or supportive care, and clearer hospice handover.
LVAD troubleshooting starts with physiology, not pump numbers alone. A new low-flow alarm with rising vasopressor need or high central venous pressure should trigger rapid assessment for right ventricular failure or tamponade, while blood pressure, rhythm, filling and echo often explain controller changes.
