Did you tell your doctor, "Thank you" or state to the medical staff, "Bless you" after your colonoscopy procedure? The patients' heartfelt gratitude was abundant at the Free Colonoscopy Day this past Saturday. HCB2 teamed up with Colon & Rectal Specialists, Ltd., Access Now of the Richmond Academy of Medicine Services, and the area free clinics to offer 15 colonoscopies to our community members. The preliminary results show: * 14:15 patients showed for their appointment. * 100% of the patients had completed their bowel prep perfectly. * 50% of the patients had polyps removed. 50% is almost 4x above the average. * Two patients had more than six polyps removed! Needless to say, lives were saved on Saturday. Why? The Free Colonoscopy Day service was offered due to partnerships and partnerships make a broader, deeper impact. HCB2 is blessed to have these partners. Sending the entire planning committee and medical team a high five, fist bump, and butt slap. Well done, kids! #colorectalcancer #screeningsaveslives #partnershipsmatter #HCB2

We are excited to unveil a second set of new data presented at this year’s American Heart Association Scientific Sessions, showing that Cadence’s remote patient monitoring solution yielded meaningful improvements in vitals and adherence to life-saving medications and guidelines amongst patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). In a study of 215 patients with HFpEF, results showed a 12x increase in patients on all four pillars of guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT), a treatment that saves and improves the quality of lives for patients with heart failure. Dr. Marat Fudim, an advanced heart failure specialist and cardiologist at the Duke University Medical Center and senior author on Cadence’s AHA abstract, shared: “This data demonstrates how RPM can help clinicians titrate and achieve high doses of life-saving GDMT in an effective and timely manner. Cadence’s team of multi-disciplinary heart failure clinicians are leveraging RPM and GDMT protocols to support HFpEF patients achieve better cardiovascular outcomes and quality of life.” Read the full results and abstract here: https://lnkd.in/e8Jcqs7k #aha23

CMS Star Ratings Unreliable for Surgical Quality? — Higher ratings tied to better surgical outcomes, but variability was high even within star groups Higher CMS hospital star ratings generally were associated with better surgical outcomes, but there was wide variability within each star-rating group, suggesting its utility for assessing surgical quality may be limited, according to a cohort study. https://lnkd.in/eazCpbkQ

Pat Furlong, founding president and CEO of Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy, is presenting on a collaborative publication with Dyne about the importance of patient engagement in clinical trial design at Parent Project aps this weekend.
