10/10 Breakthrough
Following the first @BiVACOR TAH implant, a donor heart became available and the patient successfully underwent a transplant. This marks a major step forward in evaluating the TAH as a bridge to transplant for severe heart failure. Patient Update: texasheart.org/the-texas-hea…

Trials like this (including TRILUMINATE) will always have a major challenge: the echocardiographer grading the severity of TR will invariably know there is a clip in the tricuspid valve, potentially biasing the interpretation. Any solutions? #CardioTwitter @JACCJournals
#EuroPCR #JACC LBCT SimPub: Short-term outcomes of the real-world bRIGHT study demonstrate that #TTVR using the #TriClip device is safe and effective in treating significant TR in a symptomatic, un-selected cohort at 30 days follow-up. bit.ly/3OjBKZF #TEER #vhdTR #CardioTwitter

Replying to @TexasChildrens
@TexasChildrens @Texas_Heart @GloorLoor 62 years ago today, Dr. Denton A. Cooley performed heart surgery on me at Texas Children's Hospital. I was less than 3 years old. I will always be deeply grateful to Dr. Cooley, whom I last saw in his office on Dec. 11, 2012 (10 years ago).
