30:52 Closing

They discuss how the AI-assisted stethoscope functions and its ability to identify rheumatic heart disease, highlighting the advantages of this technology in low-resource settings and the future potential of the device. Additionally, they explore the device’s capability to diagnose heart failure and the benefits of using this advanced tool over a traditional analog stethoscope. 

Joel also highlights recent JANS articles on blood pressure and heart rate management in patients after repair of type A aortic dissection, long-term outcomes and prognostic factors after chest wall resection and reconstruction, a comparison between robot- and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgeries for anterior mediastinal lesions, and the cost-effectiveness of left ventricular assist device for transplant-ineligible patients. 

In addition, Joel explores an excision of a subvalvular ring with preservation of the aortic valve, a step-by-step VATS approach for intrapericardial left pneumonectomy for a centrally located lung tumor, and a repair of rheumatic mitral stenosis using the SCORE technique. Before closing, Joel highlights upcoming events in CT surgery.
