#CardioNugget: 🫀📈 🚨 Stress Test Endpoints on ECG ➡️ ST ↓ >1 mm (horizontal or downsloping) @ 80 ms from J-point ➡️ ST ↑ in leads without Q-waves 🔑 Upsloping ST depression = less specific, but horizontal/downsloping = ischemia until proven otherwise. #CardioNuggets #FOAMed #MedEd #CardioTwitter

#CardioNugget: 🔹 AngioVac in Endocarditis A percutaneous, vacuum-assisted aspiration system. Minimally invasive option for high-risk or inoperable patients. Used as an adjunct to antibiotics & surgery. Indications: ✅ Right-sided IE (most common): IVDU w/ TV vegetations, persistent sepsis, recurrent septic PE, device/lead infections. ✅ Select Left-sided IE: mitral vegetations/thrombi (often w/ cerebral embolic protection). ✅ Bridge to surgery or when surgery is contraindicated. 👉 Think of it as a “debulking tool” to stabilize patients and reduce septic emboli risk. #CardioNuggets #Endocarditis #MedEd #CardioTwitter

#CardioNugget: Avoid Amiodarone in TdP! 🌀 Torsades de Pointes is a polymorphic VT triggered by QT prolongation. ⚡️ Amiodarone, a class III antiarrhythmic, further prolongs QT by blocking K⁺ channels → can worsen or trigger more TdP. 🚫 Don’t use Amio in TdP — even though it’s safe in many arrhythmias, it’s contraindicated here. ✅ Instead, treat TdP with: IV magnesium (even if Mg is normal) Correct K⁺ Stop QT-prolonging meds Overdrive pacing / Isoproterenol if bradycardia-induced #MedEd #EPeeps #FellowTips #TdP #QTprolongation #FOAMed #CardioTwitter #CardioNuggets
