🫀 The use of a transdermal-ISS for bloodless estimation of cTnI shows the feasibility and may have a role in real-world settings for diagnosing AMI in patients presenting with ACS.
⚠️ Will we be using a transdermal wrist worn sensor to measure Trop in the near future ⁉️ #ACC23
🆘“Nephrology Stopped the Diuretics: Renal Considerations in the Management of Heart Failure” 🫘 🫀 #ACC23#CardioNerds@CardioNerds
Dr. Alison Grazioli discussed the response to diuretics in HF:
What happens after you start loop diuretics?
🔸Net Na loss
🔸Short term Anti-Natruresis: ↗️Na retention
🔸Nephron remodeling
‼️Na loss may be equivalent to Na retention‼️
Patients with decompensated HF will need higher doses of diuretics due to decreased renal blood flow: #ACC23#CardioNerds@CardioNerds
