AngioVAC for left-sided intracardiac masses shows good effectiveness. Careful case selection, timely workup, and optimal embolic protection strategy are necessary. @PedroMDMSc @ShimamuraMD @DrMarvinEng @AhmadJabri8 @g_giustinoMD @vonBardelebenRS @engelpedro @Tiberio_Frisoli

Transcatheter vacuum-assisted extraction of left heart and aortic arch masses showed promising early effectiveness in this multicentre registry.
The observed rate of adverse events suggests the need for careful patient selection and improved procedural safety. wG

Our expert position paper published today @JACCJournals, provides procedural strategies to achieve index #TAVI optimisation, & discusses the significance of the #TAVR CODE framework (coaxiality, orientation, depth, and expansion).

Indebted to our co-authors, for their time and expeocument.

Management Approach for Recurrent MR after TEER. with case examples, treatment algorithm, an overview of treatment modalities, and a proposed goal-directed staging. A framework for further work to build upon, such as index case selection on TEER vs TMVR, device retrieval and nd the lifetime management of MR. This is the work of over 100 interventionists, surgeons and imagers from 6 continents. (Too many to tag here. Full authors list is on Sciencedirect and will be indexed on pubmed.)

Radiation exposure remains a critical concern for female interventional cardiologists. SCAI invites female ICs and fellows within 5 years of training to participate in the WONDER (Women Exposed to Occupational Doses of Radiation) study.

Participants receive surface and rs that provide real-time, on-demand radiation dose data, along with the opportunity to contribute to meaningful research shaping future practice.

Clinical Experience With a Novel Percutaneous LV Assist Device in High-Risk PCI: Primary Results From the SUPPORT I Study: @CircIntv

🥸Does lower profile mean less vascular complications ???

😱 Summary

👇👇👇

A novel low-profile (10F) percutaneous LV support device with up to 5.5 L/min demonstrates favorable performance and device-related safety in an early high-risk PCI feasibility study. The SUPPORT I Study. @azeemlatib @Kandzari ahajrnls.org/3QVIyzX

You've seen the apex on echo a thousand times. You've never seen it like this.

Exclusive to the #JACC Amara Yad image series, the LV apex’s spiral vortex of muscle fibers converging on a point so thin that light shines right through.

New QI Tip: Rethinking NPO before cath lab procedures—evidence shows liberalizing oral intake is safe, improves patient satisfaction, and doesn’t increase aspiration or procedural risk. It may also reduce delays and improve lab efficiency.
