🚨 New paper out in @rheumjnl! We examined TAVR outcomes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and aortic stenosis 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/rheuma… #Rheumatology #TAVR #AorticStenosis #CardioTwitter #MedTwitter

#CTO #PCI in cardiogenic shock, shall we even do it? Our study led by @MohamedDomaa and @AdhamGR97 in the @CJCJournals investigated the long-term outcomes of patients who already had a diagnosis of cardiogenic shock and underwent CTO PCI in the same hospitalization. While the in-hospital mortality is around 27% (which is way lower than the 40-50% cited mortality of cardiogenic shock), the long-term survival was even more impressive, with a 5-year survival of 60%. We stipulate that the reason CTO PCI was performed was either that further revascularization was needed (e.g., inability to wean from mechanical circulatory support) or that the culprit of shock was NSTEMI with multiple CTOs (18% of our cohort) Any other reason you would do CTO PCI in shock? onlinecjc.ca/article/S0828-…

My sincerest gratitude to all the co-authors for their efforts on this manuscript where we highlight how LAAO can be a significant alternative especially in patients susceptible to GI bleed. Shoutout Dr.@AGoldsweig for his continuous support and efforts !

Please check out our most recent @pace_journal publication on the risk of recurrent GI bleeding in AF patients undergoing LAAO.🫀🩸 @DrDeese99 @MohamedDomaa #AtrialFibrillation #LAAO #EPeeps #CardioTwitter
