My challenge to everyone attending #ACC24: You are investing a lot of time/money to be there - find a way to get a 10x return on that investment. How? See 🧵below for a few ideas.

Presented today at #ACC24: In the DanGer Shock trial involving patients with STEMI and cardiogenic shock, mortality at 6 months was lower with mechanical circulatory support with a microaxial flow pump than with standard care alone. Full trial results: nej.md/3xyXU3t

ULTIMATE DAPT trial showed in pts with ACS treated with PCI, ticagrelor monotherapy btw 1 and 12 months decreased clinically-relevant and major bleeding, had similar protection from MACCE vs DAPT (ticagrelor + aspirin).

Fascinating session making a case for restructuring the guidelines for High Risk PE based on evolving catheter based options and mechanical support. Systemic thrombolysis study enrolled 8 patients -> class 1b recommendation. ……Wild. #ACC2024

Exhilarating start to #ACC2024! American College of Cardiology Brookdale University Hospital IM Residency Program

Takeaways from #ACC2024. Late breaking trials - take home points American College of Cardiology 1. RELIEVE-HF Trial: In patients with HFrEF and HFpEF, Interatrial Shunt did not show any significant difference in the primary effectiveness endpoint, a composite of all-cause mortality, LVAD/heart
