Teaching cardiology better than any cardiologist we've seen in med school... thank you for making this available to train doctors and healthcare workers around the world! This channel is a gift to humanity!

[@areufkingkiddingme]

Real life and models are very different

[@tewodrosxwubet]

for sure

[@reginaestrada2772]

couldn’t agree more 💯

[@manofreedom]

I'm a very busy family medicine doctor with 28 years of ER and urgent care as well as hospitalist service experience and I have to say these Ninja Nerd videos are the BEST teaching videos I have seen. Lot's of deep dive detail that I wish I would have had in medical school, but the internet was just getting up and started in the early 90's when I was in training and residency. This would have been fantastic to have "back in the day." GREAT stuff here.

[@ricknimusiima6571]

“Son of a Gun” is the best online lecturer. Great stuff Nija nerd 👏

[@lucamirea135]

In the name of all the romanian medical students i would like to thank you. We have our residency exam in two weeks and this topic is a very big one in our bibliography and a very troublesome one, may I add. This will come in real handy. Thank you!

[@screaminR6]

I'm trying to comment on all the videos I watch as I'm going through PA school. This man is an amazing instructor and gifted speaker.

[@sallieukamara5156]

On behalf of the entire medical students in Sierra Leone, we want to thank you for all you have done for us…Thank you Prof Ninja Nerd ❤

[@sportingene]

Are there many bengali people in your country??just curious

[@rubenruiz6250]

I had heart failure with a LVEF below 40%. With Entresto and after a year on it and then discontinuing it, my LVEF was 65%. I've been without the drug for more than a year now and my heart is still perfect. In other words, I've been cured of heart failure thanks to Entresto!

[@hillarywilkins7395]

Entresto has improved my EF from 25% -45% in 6 months and i have been wondering if I will need to keep taking the med if EF returns to normal range - my cardiologist says that’s close enough to normal but I’m hoping fr further improvements at the 12 month marker as the study results showed. Good to know what’s possible thanks👍👍👍

[@mr.ssj3847]

bro, mad respect and props. seriously your videos are great, well researched and I can tell you have spent a lot of time gathering all this info together. from the bottom of my heart. thank you fam!

[@elyastesfamichael6527]

You are really Ninja bro, you make the difficult easy😉.

[@yachiapatel]

This dude have taught me not only medicine but also, what commitment actually means. Huge and massive respect buddy for your time and commendable efforts.🙌 Can't imagine how you gather all the information from various literatures and put them altogether within just a week that too in a 3-hour video ✌ Tons of love and appreciation to you and your team 🙌❤ please keep doing 🌠

[@ednatrepanier]

You are the best lecturer ever! You are very smart nerd ninja! I adore your ability to share your enormous knowledge!!!

I AM HABTAMU TEKALIGN FROM ETHIOPIA I AM CLINICAL PHARMACY STUDENT SINCE FIRST YEAR I AM USING YOUR TUTORIAL VIDEO ITS SO SUPPORTIVE NOW I AM ONE OF TOP SCORER THANK YOU BIG BRO NINJA

[@Melaniexb1]

From someone who found Dr Ninja looking for just this subject, your other video on this topic helped me know that my husband was on the correct drugs for his possible class 2 of heart failure. (He had a quintuple bi -pass just just 3 1/2 years before.) Which then lead to the three scheduled tests US of abdomen, CT, and an Echo! All waiting to take place, to help find the cause of his now (some 70 lbs )of Water weight gain in 4 weeks time!

you, your team, your spouse, your dog, your mailman and your mama....IS THE MAN. Thank You for helping out the little guy !!!!!

[@demetrikasher1237]

Awesome video, I have heart failure and like to review what my meds are doing for me every now and then haha. Losartan, Carvedilol, Warfarin, spironolactone, and a few others in the past. Thanks everyone in the medical field!

[@hiratariq3293]

I am a pharmacy graduate and bro u are good enough hats off to you

[@MH-yr6bp]

I am not even a physian but in another medical field and enjoy the courses.

[@karenmoore2972]

This guy does such an AMAZING job of explaining these concepts!! I hope he continues to teach bc many are not able to explain complex mechanisms this well, making it easy to hold our attention in my opinion!! His pace of speaking is just perfect!, easy to keep up with & definitely not dull & boring!! Thank you!!

[@searching_4_truth.]

I have had this forever, it will or can cause a person to faint which it’s happened to me. No no drugs in my system. That bad thing is the cops put me in hand cuffs , which of course they didn’t find anything and had to let me go. The worse for me was my name was in the newspaper people automatically assumed that I was on drugs,so of course that’s all people think of you when nothing I did was wrong. This embarrassed me and caused my depression and made my anxiety worse. Don’t let this happen to you. I did get tested on my heart and I’ve always had very low blood/pressure, arterierial wouldn’t open and caused my blood to pool . I have always had thickening of my heart wall( a sort of orcardiomyopathy ).

[@alexistremblay3604]

hey, I'm not a medical student or anything but I love genuinely learning about how the body functions, thank you so much for making this knowledge available for free, actually would cost thousands of dollars of books to learn this stuff otherwise. actual chad

[@robynneRN]

I never knew medicine could be this interesting!! BRAVO!

[@ednatrepanier]

You are the best person ever who can discuss anything you’re asked to do. You have a unique way of explaining everything so we can understand. Pls keep doing your education videos. Plenty of medical staffs are benefiting out of them like me. I love you!!!

[@amandavitaglian5859]

so impressed by the depth of your knowledge and how well you are able to explain it. You're a tru master of your craft.

[@user-jg1cu2qv5p]

This as a phenomenal lecture. I listened to some of your stuff during nursing school and am now studying for PCCN and wow, so helpful. Thank you!

[@hansbeukers7725]

I am a 74 year old male with a pacemaker and use anti hypertension drugs. I did not want to use metaprolol because I am still a racing cyclist and I want a high cardiac output for that reason. You told that metaprolol initially lowers the heartrate (and therfore the Cardiac output) but after some time it even increases the cardiac output. That is nice to hear and I wished I knew that earlier. Thank you! Today I use Perindopril, Nifedipine, Xarelto and Jardiance and I feel fine.

[@ngoziemozie9779]

You just dymystified heart failure with low EF. Thank you so very much for this presentation

[@tl4340]

1:04:15 Actually, the 2022 AHA/ACC Guideline on heart failure now suggests that ARNi are now first-line RASi in HFrEF, *ahead* of ACEIs and ARBs. ARNi first, then ACEI if ARNi can't be tolerated (or afforded), then ARB if ACEI can't be tolerated (e.g., angioedema, bradykinin cough). This recommendation is different than what you say in here regarding order of priority. Nitpicking aside, this is a *fabulous* teaching video.

[@Vamparina413]

Ah yes coz that was what I was given which is the Entresto when I was diagnosed with CHF last year with reduced EF.

[@JodyLeeSchroeder]

literally was asked to do this by my professor today - let''s go ! Cant wait for this video :) Love you ninja nerds

Thank you so much for sharing in more in-depth information on these drugs. I am HFrEF

[@SuperLittleTyke]

I'm male, 78 (almost) and I was diagnosed with heart failure 4 months ago with an ejection fraction of 25% to 35%. I'm now taking a cocktail of drugs: Entresto, Apixaban, Rosuvastatin, Furosemide, Bisoprolol, Eplerenone, Dapagliflozin and Aspirin. 11 years ago I had a triple CABG and made a full recovery. Three months after the operation I had a follow-up with a cardiologist and had an echocardiogram. The result of that, however, was an EF of 60%, no noticeable valve disease and the heart was pronounced good. In the intervening years I lost a lot of weight by counting calories and I modified my diet considerably with grains, wholemeal bread, lots of fish, including oily fish. What I want to know is how the EF can sink from 60% to as low as 25% in 11 years.

[@annjelasantiago8057]

[@carpe996]

You may be in residency or fellowship training now as I have noticed the decreased number of recent videos BUT I PRAY MY FRIEND that you are working toward a specialty where you will be able to teach at least a large percentage of the time in a medical school, and a medical school that will allow you to continue this work with these videos and on your website because YOU HAVE A SPECIAL GIFT and are helping so many health care professionals and others be better practitioners and better people. YOU HAVE HELPED RESTORE MY LOVE FOR MEDICINE WHICH I HAD GOTTEN AWAY FROM. GOD BLESS YOU MY FRIEND. I know you would be a phenomenonal researcher and clinical practitionerand I PRAY ( selfishly I readily admit 😂) THAT YOU LEAN TOWARD TEACHING ( along w some clinical care to keep you FRESH, of course )

Amazing video Zack! You have an amazing talent to teach! You make all these concepts so easy to understand!

[@CarolReidCA]

I'm watching again. The signals from the heart to the medulla obligata is by the IXth (9th) cranial nerve, or the glossopharangeal nerve. The Xth (10th) is the vagus never. I had to look it up to be sure, as it had been a while, but hopefully, that's helpful for someone. The carotid sinus baroreceptors are innervated by the carotid sinus nerve branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve. Their stimulation results in heart rate reduction mediated by the vagus nerve. Thanks for your lectures!

Aldosterone antagonists arent an add-on therapy, its a GDMT which means all HFref patients should take this medication with an acei or an arb because it reduces heart fibrosis and hypertrophy

Another video on your channel explaining CHF was so clear, informative & helpful - so, thank you..Got anything on APS, Auroimmunity diseases? If one wants to empty a room of medical folks just ask questions about APS , lol (and yes, sometimes that is desirable). Can be difficult to get & understand enough information to make decisions regarding one's health- very frustrating.

In Australia we've added SGLT2 inhibitors like dapagliflozin to our first line therapy along with the beta blockers and ARNI + valsartan. It's unknown why but seems to be cardioprotective and improve outcomes, likely due to the diuretic effect.

[@em8066]

We also learned about the role of SGLT2-i in my PA program in the US. Seems especially useful given the frequent comorbidity of HF and DM.

[@prithvirajdhonde2430]

In NHS too we add DAPA 10 along with others

[@CarolReidCA]

I just found you. You're an excellent instructor/professor. I'm having to take this in a bit at a time, but excellent teaching, excellent content, and to the point. I hope and pray that you are teaching as many students as possible, as we need tons of clones of you who can learn, and then they can teach others as well, and so on. You have a great voice, you cover the subject matter in an organized manner, you are clear, you have drawings and printing that is great and readable. Can you do a video on Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency MZ phenotype, and treatments for lung, liver and eye inflammation, drugs to avoid (such as Tamiflu, NSAIDS, Tylenol, etc.), risks for heart, lung, liver, kidneys, brain, retinas (especially in children), etc.? It seems MZs are more at risk for both lung and liver problems, as well as other problems that have very little research, it seems. This would be greatly appreciated, both from a personal and professional standpoint. Thanks for at least considering this. I agree that Ivabrdine is a strange bird... Wouldn't the ion transfer create a delay in and/or prolongation of ST waves? And all that entails? (Early repolarization, aneurysms, pancreatitis, etc.)??? I'm asking, as it seems that could be a problem, and without other meds, a possible increase in stroke risks??? I can see why they'd need to ideally be maxed on a beta blocker when using Ivabradine. And a
