Dyspnea After Pulmonary Embolism: Optimal Medical Therapy in Peripheral Vascular Disease
Guest: Stan Henkin, M.D.
Host: Malcolm R. Bell, M.D.
Historically, majority of clinical and research focus has been on acute management of pulmonary embolism (PE). However, long-standing functional impairment after PE is common, occurring in up to 50% of individuals with history of PE. This is termed post-PE syndrome – an underrecognized, underdiagnosed, and undertreated entity. In this podcast, experts discuss epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of post-PE syndrome.
Topics Discussed:
- What is Post-PE syndrome? How common is it?
- What is your suggested work-up of patient who presents with dyspnea after PE?
- When should a patient be referred to a tertiary/expert center?

An AI-ECG Algorithm for Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction
Guest: Jae Oh, M.D.
Host: Anthony H. Kashou, M.D.
Diastolic function assessment is crucial in diagnosing, managing, and predicting outcomes in various cardiac conditions. It provides insight into heart health, particularly in diagnosing heart failure. Shortness of breath, a common patient complaint, often indicates elevated diastolic filling pressure if linked to a cardiac condition. Echocardiography is the primary method for assessing diastolic function, but it is operator-dependent and not always available. In contrast, ECGs are standardized and widely accessible. Although subtle changes in ECGs are not easily detectable by the human eye, artificial intelligence can identify specific conditions reflected in the ECG. By training an AI model with labeled ECGs based on diastolic function determined through echocardiography, researchers achieved high accuracy in detecting diastolic dysfunction. AI-enhanced ECGs can significantly impact the identification of both asymptomatic and symptomatic cardiac conditions, potentially streamlining diagnostic strategies and reducing costs. Future developments may enable patients to monitor their heart health using simple wearable devices, enhancing the management of heart failure and other conditions.
Topics Discussed:
- Your special clinical academic interest is echocardiography. Why are you interested in ECG AI in diastolic function?
- What is diastolic function and why is it important to assess diastolic function in clinical practice?
- Why did you decide to create AI-ECG for diastolic function assessment?
- What did you find and how do you envision AI ECG for diastolic function be used in clinical practice?

Novel Mitral Therapies
Guest: Arman Arghami, M.D., M.P.H.
Guest: Mayra Guerrero, M.D.
Host: Kyle Klarich, M.D.
And the end of this podcast, the listener should understand how to identify new minimally invasive procedures to treat patients with mitral valve disease, delineate the difference between minimally invasive surgery versus percutaneous transcatheter interventions for mitral valve disease, and recognize when to refer patients for mitral valve interventions.
Topics Discussed:
- What are the minimally invasive intervention options to treat patient with mitral valve disease?
- Which are the patients who benefit from less invasive procedures?
- How and when to refer a patient for mitral valve intervention?
- If a patient had prior mitral valve surgery (repair or replacement) and has recurrent mitral valve disease, is redo mitral surgery always needed? Or can a patient with prior surgery be treated with a transcatheter mitral valve repair or replacement, avoiding the need for repeat surgery?

Myocarditis - Presentation and Recent Advances
Guest: Drew Rosenbaum, M.D.
Host: Sharonne Hayes, M.D.
Through this podcast, listeners should understand how myocarditis manifests, both in the hospitalized patients as well as in clinical practice in order to facilitate recognition of the disease to initiate the appropriate work and achieve a diagnosis. The treatment strategies depend highly on the underlying condition. Although current strategies for treatment are evolving, a conceptual framework for which patients may benefit from anti-inflammatory therapies and which may not is critical to appropriate select therapies for patients affected by myocarditis.
Topics Discussed:
- What is the spectrum of manifestations of myocarditis?
- How do you diagnose myocarditis?
- How is myocarditis treated and what is on the horizon for myocarditis?
