Special shout out to Christine @gvascstudy.bsky.social, who drove from Boston to Philly in the deep freeze and snow to present on #gVasc at SCAD Together and host a booth. She enrolled 11 SCAD patients during the event, complete with sample collection. #SCADheart

SCAD Together patient panel on heart attack from spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD): Robin, SCAD at age 46; Katherine, SCAD at 38; Vonda, SCAD at 56; and Neelima, SCAD at 49. #SCADheart
#HeartMonth Highlight: The @pennmedicine.bsky.social #SCAD Together Event, February 7th in Philadelphia was a day of learning from experts, supporting new friends, and sharing inspiration among patients and family members. THANK YOU Dr. Jenn Lewey and Dr. Monika Sanghavi for including #SCADAlliance!
🎁 Happy Holidays from the gVasc research team 🎁 participating in research can be a meaningful gift for loved ones, future patients, and yourself ❤️

What an incredible day at the MGB SCAD symposium this past October 🎉
Co-hosted by Mass General Brigham Women's Heart Health Program and SCAD Alliance, we brought together 220+ participants from 10 states and 6 countries for a patient-centered symposium focused on SCAD diagnosis and management. 🌎💙
📍gVasc has enrolled 400 SCAD patients across 44 states! This broad representation contributes greatly to the diversity that is needed for studying SCAD ❤️ #SCAD #heartresearch #genetics #scadgenetics @scadalliance.bsky.social @markelindsay.bsky.social @pnatarajanmd.bsky.social

Happy to participate in Pittsburgh SCADaddle 5K for SCAD research. SCAD is the kind of heart attack that mostly affects healthy women >40 without traditional risk factors. Can be associated with peri or postpartum and commonly SCAD patients also suffer migraines @scadalliance.bsky.social
An important #SCAD story for many reasons. Please share with your #MedSky, #NursingSky, #CardioSky colleagues. #SCADheart

“Sen. Bill Cassidy said Friday that Louisiana is undergoing its worst whooping cough outbreak since 1990 and called on Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to promote vaccinations.” This outbreak has already killed two babies. @jackiantonovich.bsky.social

This unusual kind of heart attack, SCAD, stands for Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection but I sometimes call it Surprise! Coronary Artery Dissection because it sure is.
