The Beat With Joel Dunning Ep. 76: Working With Hospital Colleagues and Teams

This week on The Beat, CTSNet Editor-in-Chief Joel Dunning explores the value of working together. He discusses the importance of working not only with others in your own specialty but with teams outside your comfort zone. He also shares examples of these situations and explains how you can learn from them.  

Joel also reviews recent JANS articles on the impact of incomplete revascularization on long-term survival based on revascularization strategy, impact of residual entry tears in the descending aorta after type A dissection, aortic valve replacement versus conservative treatment in asymptomatic severe aortic stenosis, and potassium supplementation and prevention of atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery.  

In addition, Joel explores aortic valve reimplantation in a Marfan syndrome patient, aortic root replacement with a Bio-Bentall, and Cox maze III procedure and complex mitral valve repair of a calcified annulus. Before closing, he shares upcoming events in CT surgery.
