What on earth does this mean??? How insulting to just about everyone. Why would you ever say something like this???? @anish_koka @WomenAs1

So proud to have friend and mentor @samirpancholy giving Cardiology GR @UIC_CathLab @uiccom @UICDom “History of Radial Access” @spiritus_bah @mividovich @KhalilIbrahimMD @ElliottMGroves #RadialFirst

70's, DM, ESRD, CVA, frail, prior PCI to prox LAD and OM1, presents with NSTEMI. Angio shows L dominant, short LM with severe disease (abnormal dFR in LAD and LCx). Referred for CABG, turned down at 2 different centers. 2 admissions in a month for syncope/CHF. Referred for PCI

tctmd.com/news/us-cath-l… The most pressing issues that they identify are the increase in late presentation for STEMI and an increase in AS mortality in patients awaiting TAVR...two of the areas where we clearly know our services provide improvement in morbidity and mortality...

71yo at high surgical risk came in w/acute worsening of his known MR and cardiogenic shock. IABP placed, too sick for surgery, referred for clip. LA pressures were impressive. Bileaflet prolapse.

Interesting physiology case. 65yo woman w/very anginal sounding cp comes to my clinic. Low risk, I start beta blocker, max it out. She feels a little better, I start Ca2+ blocker, max it out. She still has angina. So I do a treadmill stress echo. Clear stress induced ant wma.
