Another phenomenal session hosted by our @cscs_sccc Educational Task Force! We are so lucky in Canada to have faculty who are willing to take time out of their busy schedules to teach us in such a platform.
Thank you @YuanQiu__ @T_servito + Asher for organizing ☺️

Disparities in access to 🫀 surgical care = expressed differently across populations.
📶 access requires efforts at intersection of individuals' multiple identities & traditions.
@MedHums_BMJ, we redefine #GlobalCardiacSurgery w/ intersectionality lens: mh.bmj.com/content/early/202…

In 2020, females account for 47% of applicants to CVSx but only 10% of staff surgeons, 8% of program directors and 6% of division chiefs. Much more work remains to be done @OuzounianMD @najmadoc @jenn_cy_chung @T_servito doi.org/10.1016/j.jtcvs.2021…

"Female applications to 🫀 surgery are ↗️ and nearing parity with male counterparts .. no sex difference in matching rates .. proportion of female cardiac surgeons in 🇨🇦 remains low"

Very proud of this excellent paper led by my mentee @T_servito about such a complex topic #ischemic #mitral #regurgitation #cardiotwitter @BobbyYanagawa @MElbatarny @UofTCVsurgery @uoftmedicine @UnityHealthTO – at Toronto, Ontario
Surgical planning for ischemic mitral regurgitation:
▶️ LV dimensions & volumes
▶️ Wall motion abnormalities & score index
▶️ Leaflet tethering # & pattern
💡 MC viability ideally w/ CMR; strain echo ↗️ used
Excellent overview @T_servito et al in COC: journals.lww.com/co-cardiolo…
