Analysis of 1078 pts in #STRONG_HF:
📍Rapid #GDMT uptitration (~80% dose by day 90) is safe, feasible & ⬇️#HF readmissions/mortality in pts w/wo #AFib
📍#AFib shouldn’t be a barrier, all #HF pts deserve optimal care #GDMTworks

Thread for those new to BlueSky. First of all, welcome. It feels like a safer space, doesn’t it? But also perhaps a bit disorienting initially? Here’s some tips for getting your bearings.

This is very interesting - we're currently reviewing our inpatient referral pathways precisely because 60-70 referrals/day in a busy teaching hospital is not manageable by 2 junior doctors.
