ViV-TAVR vs. Redo-SAVR: A Comparison In our recently published study at @AmJCardio, we found: 1️⃣ Mortality & Stroke Rates: Similar between the two groups 2️⃣ In-Hospital Complications: Lower with ViV-TAV 3️⃣ Hospitalization Duration: Shorter with ViV-TAVR. @CedarsSinaiMed

Pls see our recent article on the importance of #HealthDiplomacy, on the basis of our work in #LosAngeles. Was proud to co-author with @dr_ofir an exceptional Israeli cardiologist. #Medical #innovation is saving lives and Israel is leading the way! jns.org/israel-news/he…

Why not use the £350 million pounds funding a week that was promised for the NHS if the population voted for Brexit (that would be £45 billion since we left EU until now) to fund a fair salary to all staff, investment in NHS services to drive reductions in waiting lists and excess deaths - or were these figures just made up?. The only thing this intransigence achieves is medical staff leaving the UK, and a generation for your party on the opposition benches (from an ex-conservative voter)

The lucky participants received a fascinating glimpse into #innovation and modern #innovative methods in #heart intervention, when #Israeli @dr_ofir and Raj Makkar MD @CedarSinai introduced highlights from their co edited book @MilkenInstitute. #cardiology #SmidtHeartInstitue

Check out the new patent for transporting continuous Diuretics in heart failure patients without the need for intravenous infusion. Kudos to my friend @abu_much and colleague @AimanAbuAmmar doctorsonly.co.il/2023/03/281005/ #innovation Sheba arc Innovation #cardiovascular

🫀 This Saturday, 3/4, visit our booth at ACC to meet @dr_ofir, one of the Editors-in-Chief of "Complex Cases in Structural Heart Intervention"! 🫀 You don't want to miss out on this Author Meet & Greet. #ACC2023 #ACC23

Valve-in-Valve TAVR has no more future coronary events than native TAVR. Check out our study at the best abstract session in #CRT2023 in Washington, DC, and #JACCintervention. Kudos to our team and @abu_much and Ilan Merdler for sharing the session. @CRT_meeting @CedarsSinaiMed

Check out our paper by Alon Shecther and Cedars-Sinai's team on the predictive value of mitral valve hemodynamic parameters in transcatheter edge-to-edge repair. Well done! Kudos to the mentors Robert J. Siegel and Raj Makkar. @CedarsSinaiMed @CedarsSinai #EHJCVI @ESC_Journals

We are happy to perform our first #ShortCut patient at @CedarsSinai interventional team led by Raj Makkar. The new technology ensures coronary patency for ViV-TAVR patients and improves procedure outcomes. Thanks to the proctor team @DvirDanny @SCMDCARDIO at #PiCardia.

We are proud to announce that after two years of tremendous effort and hard work, led by Raj Makkar, our book "Complex Cases in Structural Heart Intervention" has been published. We discussed, illustrated, and guided the most challenging structural procedures ever reported.
