The Beat With Joel Dunning Ep. 60

This week on The Beat, Editor in Chief Joel Dunning interviews Dr. Robert Cerfolio of NYU Langone Health. They discuss the importance of consistent communication at every touch point before surgery to achieve routine day one discharge after lobectomies anad day three discharge after cardiac surgery. Dr. Cerfolio also emphasizes the importance of overcoming dogma and embracing the mindset that getting patients home is better for them and safer.

Joel then highlights a new CTSNet podcast for residents and trainees, The Atrium hosted by Dr. Alice Copperwheat. In addition, he discusses a cyberattack on London hospitals, the EXPLANT-TAVR registry, the impact of patient-prosthesis mismatch, and a report on cardiac xenotransplantation.

He also features a panel discussion of CABG surgery disasters, aortic hemiarch replacement without hypothermic circulatory arrest, and a redo sternotomy with a Bentall’s operation in Ghana. Before wrapping up, Joel discusses upcoming events in CT surgery.
