Steering Clear of Hospitalization and Managing Heart Failure with CardioMEMS
Dr. Pradip Jamnadas, MDSummary
A new device called the Cardio MEMS is revolutionizing the management of congestive heart failure by allowing early detection of rising pulmonary artery pressures, which can lead to hospital admissions. This small, catheter-delivered device is implanted in the pulmonary artery and monitors pressure changes, providing crucial data that can alert healthcare providers to potential heart failure before symptoms arise. Studies indicate that its use can reduce hospitalization rates by nearly 60%, significantly improving patient outcomes.
The insertion of the Cardio MEMS is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure, typically performed under local anesthesia. Once in place, the device continuously transmits data, enabling physicians to make timely adjustments to treatment plans, including medication changes or lifestyle interventions. This proactive approach aims to prevent acute episodes of heart failure, allowing patients to manage their condition more effectively without the need for frequent hospital visits.
Healthcare providers are encouraged to consider this innovative tool for patients with a history of congestive heart failure, particularly those who have been hospitalized in the past six months. The device is now covered by most insurance plans, making it accessible to a broader range of patients.

In this video I explain how the CardioMEMS device allows for patients to be monitored for pulmonary hypertension remotely. This devices sends data which can show lung pressures rising before congestive heart failure and hospitalization is needed.Subscribe to the Channel!https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOtQHehGWtblMp1gZC8Kq3Q?sub_confirmation=1Sign up for my Heart Health emailshttps://orlandocvi.com/heart-health-updates-yt/My other Videos:Why your Cardiac Examination is Incomplete - https://youtu.be/Rzb5r8FXpRUWhat is a Coronary Calcium Score? - https://youtu.be/NYkW2vxyiocWhat is a CT Angiogram (CTA) of the Heart? - https://youtu.be/uHpN1FQ-HvoWhat is Cardioversion? - https://youtu.be/yb-srtyEOuYWhat is a Leadless Pacemaker? - https://youtu.be/2CYZbeYSvVEWhat is Right Heart Catheterization? - https://youtu.be/2hy05-dM-lMWhat is a Heart Attack? - https://youtu.be/lPzT62_b4KoHeart Attack Treatment - https://youtu.be/N0vFV3wOGPUWhat is a Kraft Test? - https://youtu.be/SxS2AayOHmoWhat is an Echocardiogram? - https://youtu.be/DZ3G8P0L_sMIntroduction to Cardiac Catheterizations - https://youtu.be/k4UyUBGnojUWhat is a Loop Recorder? - https://youtu.be/mXHAuV27bs8External Counterpulsation (ECP) for Chest Pain and Coronary Calcium - https://youtu.be/4wd-3WyvlNQMy Lectures:"The Fat Lies" - https://youtu.be/Yo-IL-LH5FQ"The Bittersweet Truth" - https://youtu.be/6zZBiTfIp4QSocial Links:https://www.facebook.com/orlandocvihttps://www.instagram.com/pradipjamnadasmd/https://www.facebook.com/pradipjamnadasmd/About Dr. Pradip Jamnadas, MD, MBBS, FACC, FSCAI, FCCP, FACPThe founder and Chief Medical Officer of Cardiovascular Interventions, P.A. in Orlando Florida where, since 1990, he has been repeatedly recognized in local publications as a Top Doctor performing thousands of interventional procedures in hospital and out patient settings.

There are way too many other ingredients in bread with refined flour. It's not whole wheat, it's not whole grain. And because the process did so much, they have to re add all the ingredients. Also, they are called vegetable oils, but many are not from vegetables. They are actually extracted from seeds. Whether it's soy oil, cottonseed oil, corn oil, soybean oil, even canola oil. These are all manufactured oils full of omega six. And these must be avoided whenever we cook, we should not use this oil.Uploaded 09-12-21This is the second of a three part series on grocery shopping this holiday season.Watch part 1 here:https://youtu.be/uAJ6-X3ESS4Chapters:0:00 Introduction0:52 Bread2:42 Why refined flour should be avoided3:31 Peanut butter4:17 Potato chips5:31 Polyunsaturated fats6:55 Vegetable seed oils8:05 Cookies10:02 Sugar in drinks10:54 How to keep mitochondria happy 11:23 OutroSubscribe to the Channel to get notified when the next two videos get released!https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOtQHehGWtblMp1gZC8Kq3Q?sub_confirmation=1In my previous lectures I discuss in more detail the topics of diet and fasting:"Fasting for Survival" - https://youtu.be/RuOvn4UqznU"The Fat Lies" - https://youtu.be/Yo-IL-LH5FQ"The Bittersweet Truth" - https://youtu.be/6zZBiTfIp4QMy other Videos:What is a Kraft Test? - https://youtu.be/SxS2AayOHmoWhy your Cardiac Examination is Incomplete- https://youtu.be/Rzb5r8FXpRUTreat High Blood Pressure's Root Cause - https://youtu.be/yaf1swrS1_cWhat is a Coronary Calcium Score? - https://youtu.be/NYkW2vxyiocWhat is a CT Angiogram (CTA) of the Heart? - https://youtu.be/uHpN1FQ-HvoWhat is Cardioversion? - https://youtu.be/yb-srtyEOuYWhat is a Leadless Pacemaker? - https://youtu.be/2CYZbeYSvVEWhat is Right Heart Catheterization? - https://youtu.be/2hy05-dM-lMWhat is a Heart Attack? - https://youtu.be/lPzT62_b4KoHeart Attack Treatment - https://youtu.be/N0vFV3wOGPUWhat is an Echocardiogram? - https://youtu.be/DZ3G8P0L_sMMonitoring Heart Failure with CardioMEMS - https://youtu.be/A35IsJxs6mwIntroduction to Cardiac Catheterizations - https://youtu.be/k4UyUBGnojUWhat is a Loop Recorder? - https://youtu.be/mXHAuV27bs8External Counterpulsation (ECP) for Chest Pain and Coronary Calcium - https://youtu.be/4wd-3WyvlNQSign up for my Heart Health emailshttps://orlandocvi.com/heart-health-updates-yt/Social Links:https://www.facebook.com/orlandocvihttps://www.instagram.com/pradipjamnadasmd/https://www.facebook.com/pradipjamnadasmd/About Dr. Pradip Jamnadas, MD, MBBS, FACC, FSCAI, FCCP, FACPThe founder and Chief Medical Officer of Cardiovascular Interventions, P.A. in Orlando Florida where, since 1990, he has been repeatedly recognized in local publications as a Top Doctor performing thousands of interventional procedures in hospital and out patient settings.
