Between my two kids, I may have a TAVR team!!!

Our case report re-creating the original antegrade transeptal approach to TAVR using an AV rail with long 26 French sheath to protect the septum and mitral valve. Might be a viable alternative access in selected patients.

Most important thing you need to know as a #CardioThoracic surgeon, by decade 1995: how to do a SAVR 2020: how to do SAVR, how to do TAVR, how to choose 2035: how to take out a TAVR and replace with SAVR (These years are *rough estimates) @tomcnguyen @ekgpdx @EricKirker

@DrDoddamani That is a beautiful sketch!!!

At a home visit, a man with severe COPD had eyes filled with pride and tears - - sharing his daughter’s “million dots” sketch called Women of the World. She was not so lucky and succumbed to asthma. You learn so much about your patients and their communities by doing home visits

just been asked to debate embolic protection in TAVR next week "Should be used in select cases" (Vs "use in all cases") want to use a series of tweets as my slides so appealing to the #tavr crew for your strongest arguments supporting my case Will try to use as many as poss
