ECMO - Extracorporeal Membranous Oxygenation
ECMO - Extracorporeal Membranous Oxygenation
Guest: Philip J. Spencer, M.D.
Hosts: Malcolm Bell, M.D.
Extracorporeal Membranous Oxygenation is a mechanical life support used for severe heart, lung or heart and lung failure. Over the last decade it has grown massively in use to help us support our most ill patients to destination therapy or recovery.
Topics Discussed:
Can you describe some of the history of ECMO to explain how we got to present day use?
Please describe some key differences in venoarterial and venovenous ECMO? What makes them different from a technical standpoint and how are they used differently for our patients?
There has been some controversy recently as to the use of ECMO and survival. Can you describe where this controversy is coming from and how we think ECMO can really make a difference in survival for patients?

Lung Transplant
Lung Transplant
Guest: Philip J. Spencer, M.D.
Hosts: Malcom Bell, M.D.
Lung transplant has evolved over the last 4 decades to be come the only “durable” treatment for end stage lung failure and pulmonary hypertension. Long-term survival remains a challenge however is improving with time while the severity of illness we can treat continues to expand
Topics Discussed:
What patients are we currently treating with lung transplantation and how has this changed over time.
What tools have evolved over the last 10-15 years that have increased our ability to expand lung transplantation to older and more severely ill patients?
What areas do you see as a focus for improvement in the next decade in the field of lung transplantation?

All About Comparison ECGs for 12-Leads and Arrhythmias
All About Comparison ECGs for 12-Leads and Arrhythmias
Guest: Ken Grauer, M.D.
Host: Anthony H. Kashou, M.D.
In this episode, we explore the importance of clinically correlated ECGs, including the optimal techniques for ECG comparison, the role of clinical history in this process, and the applications of comparison tracings for cardiac arrhythmias.
Topics Discussed
What can we learn from clinically correlated Comparison of ECGs?
What is the optimal technique for comparing one tracing with another

Advances in Understanding Bicuspid Aortic Valve
Advances in Understanding Bicuspid Aortic Valve
Guest: Hector I. Michelena, M.D.
Hosts: Patricia A. Pellikka, M.D.
The congenital bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart defect, affecting 1% of the population (2% in men and 0.5% women), with men to women ratio of 2:1 to 3:1, and it is characterized by heterogeneity of phenotypic expression and outcomes.
Topics Discussed:
What is bicuspid aortic valve and why is it important?
What is meant by saying that it is a heterogeneous disease?
What is the natural history of the disease?
What are the differences between BAV AS and TAV AS? What about BAV AR and TAV AR?
Are there sex differences in BAV disease?

ICI Myocarditis
ICI Myocarditis
Guest: Joerg Herrmann, M.D.
Hosts: Sharonne Hayes, M.D.
At the end of this recording, the listener will have an understanding of the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and their cardiovascular side effects, which include myocarditis, heart failure, and acute coronary events. Challenges in diagnosis and treatment of these cardiovascular events will be discussed.
Topics Discussed:
What are immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and for which diseases are they used?
What are the most common side effects of ICIs to be aware of, especially cardiovascular side effects for our audience?
How do you diagnose ICI myocarditis? What are the caveats?
How do you treat ICI myocarditis? Can you resume ICI therapy once resolved?
What about other CV side effects with ICI therapy? Easy to recognize, easy to manage?

How Can Genetics Help in the Management of Heart Failure?
How Can Genetics Help in the Management of Heart Failure?
Guest: Naveen L. Pereira, M.D.
Hosts: Paul A. Friedman, M.D.
Cardiomyopathy is an important cause of heart failure and can be inherited or have a genetic basis. Identifying a genetic cause for cardiomyopathy not only provides a molecular diagnosis of the disease but holds significant importance in screening family members enabling early identification of disease, providing prognostic information to the patient and increasingly offers the opportunity for therapy that is genetic based. Understanding the genetics of cardiomyopathy also helps identify new pathophysiologic mechanisms of disease that may help in the development of new therapeutic targets.
Topics Discussed:
Genetic Testing as a tool to determine inherited cardiomyopathy
The yield of genetic testing for cardiomyopathy
What results can be expected after genetic testing is performed?
Can genetics provide new insight into the pathophysiology of disease, specifically cardiomyopathies?

Customer Reviews
Poor Multidisciplinary Recognition
I expected more from the Mayo Clinic. There’s so much emphasis on surgical and pharmaceutical weight loss in this content. These methods will rarely ever have long term benefits without also including dietitians in their care for teaching lifestyle changes.
Could be better
Some of the podcasts had very little actual clinical content. They sounded like more of an advertisement for the Mayo Clinic. I’m several episodes into the ECG series and have yet to hear anything practice changing or informative.
