Today, @SecKennedy announced reforms to strengthen one of the institutions charged with preventive care across America with eight new members of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force. "America faces a chronic disease crisis that medicine cannot solve through treatment alone. We must put prevention at the center of American health care..." - HHS Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr. 🇺🇸

My friend @venkmurthy was appointed today to the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force. In the @nytimes article getting into the decision, they link to a piece he wrote earlier this year for @iwfeatures (in replies):

🫀🔬 "Seeing is believing"… but by how much? 9 RCTs of CAC/CTA-guided prevention: Showing patients their plaque nudges statin/antiplatelet use up ~10 pp and trims LDL only by fractions of an mmol/L Modest moves And so far, no ⬇️ in hard CV events in RCTs 👀➡️🤷

So it starts! What are we going to do tonight Brain?

Wild case!
Transfer center call: Patient presented with E. coli bacteremia and was found to have a ureteral stent extending from her bladder through the IVC directly into her Right Atrium. What would you do?

We need to be cautious. I am not advocating imaging for screening Not am I advocating treating all miniscule plaque as the same Has to be tailored for the patient Primary prevention benefits are often very small, but in some rare cases large
