The Pulse — November 2024

Happy Fall to All! We had a successful meeting during the Single Ventricle Investigators Meeting in Denver this month, and it was great to see so many of you in person! Many new junior faculty and leaders of all experience levels have joined ACTION, and we are excited to continue our progress in the VAD, Heart Failure, Muscular Dystrophy, and Fontan spaces. We are grateful for the engagement and collaboration from all stakeholders that continue to excel our research, quality improvement, education, and advocacy efforts.

Happy New Year! We hope you enjoyed the Holiday Season and are energized for a new year! We wrapped 2023 with the launch of several exciting projects, such as the HeartMate 3^TM Discharge Bundle and Heart Healthy Video Series, we continued access to the Berlin Heart Active Driver under the extended trial, and we published new ACTION research. Looking ahead this year we have been meeting individually with all ACTION sites to ensure successful engagement in ACTION and highlight membership benefits for each center. We are excited to expand quality improvement, education, research, and best practice initiatives across the network, as well as engage with Global centers and increase advocacy efforts in the pediatric heart failure space. Reach out with any new ideas for the year ahead. Thank you for your continued efforts!
