On this episode of Advances in Care , host Erin Welsh and Dr. Craig Smith, Chair of the Department of Surgery and Surgeon-in-Chief at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia discuss the highlights of Dr. Smith’s 40+ year career as a cardiac surgeon and how the culture of Columbia has been a catalyst for innovation in cardiac care. Dr. Smith describes the excitement of helping to pioneer the institution’s heart transplant program in the 1980s, when it was just one of only three hospitals in the country practicing heart transplantation. Dr. Smith also explains how a unique collaboration with Columbia’s cardiology team led to the first of several groundbreaking trials, called PARTNER (Placement of AoRTic TraNscatheteR Valve), which paved the way for a monumental treatment for aortic stenosis — the most common heart valve disease that is lethal if left untreated. During the trial, Dr. Smith worked closely with Dr. Martin B. Leon, Professor of Medicine at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and Chief Innovation Officer and the Director of the Cardiovascular Data Science Center for the Division of Cardiology. Their findings elevated TAVR, or transcatheter aortic valve replacement, to eventually become the gold-standard for aortic stenosis patients at all levels of illness severity and surgical risk. Today, an experienced team of specialists at Columbia treat TAVR patients with a combination of advancements including advanced replacement valve materials, three-dimensional and ECG imaging, and a personalized approach to cardiac care. Finally, Dr. Smith shares his thoughts on new frontiers of cardiac surgery, like the challenge of repairing the mitral and tricuspid valves, and the promising application of robotic surgery for complex, high-risk operations. He reflects on life after he retires from operating, and shares his observations of how NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia have evolved in the decades since he began his residency.

Por donde quiera que caminemos, sea cual sea el sendero a serpentear, se habla de amor. Esa palabra tan absolutamente grandilocuente que, en ocasiones, nos hace perdernos en nuestro propio bosque, en nuestras propias sensaciones y en las ajenas. Llegado este punto todos sabemos hablar de amor y para cada uno de nosotros el concepto que atesora es la verdad última. O podría serlo.…
Vuelve el podcast sobre poesía y realidad tras unos meses alejado por la pandemia del Covid19. Es un buen momento para buscar esperanza donde parece no haberla...
Se habla mucho de la necesidad de esperar, de buscar el momento propicio para salir en la búsqueda de lo que queremos. Pero, ¿qué se puede hacer mientras la espera cruza por nuestro escenario para quedarse a nuestro lado a mirar por la ventana...?
Brindo contigo por las palabras, por los gestos y por los silencios. Te invito nuevamente a detenerte unos instantes y a dejarte llevar. ¿Vienes? Te espero. ¡Gracias!
Demasiado deprisa. Quizá esa sea la sensación que más angustia me produce hoy en día. No hay tiempo para nada. Y, mucho menos, para uno mismo. Reclamó ese tiempo imprescindible donde podamos escuchar. Y si me permites, te mostraré un poco más de este universo humilde y personal que viene conmigo de la mano. Gracias por tu precioso tiempo.
