Great session on an under utilized test. Sometimes our valvular heart disease patients can benefit - when unsure about dyspnea on exertion: CPET (cardiopulmonary exercise stress testing) @ACCinTouch #ACC26

Wrapping up #CRT2026 talking about “New Pulmonic Valves and IVL in Pulmonary Interventions | An Update” and then joining world class experts in the field such as @hahn_rt & Hans Figulla for panel discussion! Thank you @ronwaksman & until next year’s 30 year anniversary for #CRT!

@SrihariNaiduMD @cardiacpolymath @WMCHealth @nymedcollege @scaielm @SCAI @SuzanneJBaron @SimranSinghMD @seiiwaiEPmd The training and skill set in #ACHD is a topic that @erichorlick is very vocal about. We didn’t get to hear from him at #CRT2026 but looking forward to do so at #SCAI2026 @SCAI

I’ve been so busy I didn’t have a chance to officially welcome @drephrem to our team at @WMCHealth @nymedcollege. I’ve known him about a decade since he was in @scaielm the program we created for early IC superstars. He will be working to build a world class #ACHD program! @SCAI

Congrats for the investigators. This would certainly deserve further investigation and understanding. Can’t understand improved PVL mechanism which rates are quite high. Is this published anywhere?

Late-breaking trial at #CRT2026: Tirzepatide after TAVR substanially reduced HALT and PVL at 12 months. Highlights: • HALT: 8.4% vs 21.6% (RR 0.39, p=0.002) • PVL: 10.7% vs 25.3% • SLT progression: 3.1% vs 11.5% • Lower mean gradient, better EOA • No unexpected safety signal A metabolic therapy entering the structural valve conversation. Next steps: further sensitivity analysis looking at the impact of the degree of weightloss on HALT? Are the results solely due to weight loss, anti-inflammatory or other mechanims? Great work by Dr. Thirugnanam and team! #TAVR #StructuralHeart #GLP1 #CardioX @crt_meeting @ron_waksman @GreggWStone @TheDoctorMack @KarenMKimMD1 @PopmaJeffrey @MReardon19 @SachinGoelMD

Song 90 is another classic romantic song from yesteryear. My cover of “we’ve got tonight” originally by Bob Segar.
