Latest haul of hard organised clots from a PESI class V patient with severe RV dysfunction nearing intubation. Immediate satisfaction - 100% high flow weaned to 30% post procedure, 1L nasal prongs day after. Inari, now part of Stryker #flowtriever #pulmonaryembolism #clotwarrior

Congratulations to Dr Chan Meei Wah, cardiologist from Serdang Heart Centre Malaysia, for completing one year echocardiography fellowship with distinction at NUHCS. Our echo lab are lucky enough to have you as part of the team, all the best to your future endeavors in Malaysia 😀

Trans-national tutorial over the South China Sea. Dr Lim Yinghao from NUHCS, Singapore gave an amazing tutorials on cardiac hemodynamics to Dr in Sarawak, Serdang and the Philippines! Teaching without boundaries! Thanks Dr Joshua for organizing.

Our first #Mitral #TEER #Pascal prior CABG patient, severe DMR, large prolapse P2-P1, flail segment P2/P1 junction. No residual MR with one #PascalACE. Echo POD 1 showed trivial MR, MG of 1mmHg.

In this paper, Orly Leiva, MD, Sripal Bangalore et al. reported that early catheter-based therapy (≤1 day) in intermediate-/high-risk PE significantly reduces 90-day mortality, readmissions, bleeding, and length of stay vs delayed therapy. lnkd.in/dxQwZ7d9 #PE #CBT #CDT

#ClotWarriors rejoice! Hey it works for us! Mechanical #thrombectomy better than🩸thinning alone for intermediate risk #PulmonaryEmbolism in our cohort🇸🇬! 📍improved PASP, RV/LV ratio, TAPSE, TAPSE/PASP, ICU stay, total hospital days, 30D mortality thrombosisresearch.com/article/S0049-…

In another study published in #JACCINT, the timing of noncardiac surgery after #TAVR was not associated with increased perioperative risk, suggesting that surgical delays based solely on interval from TAVR may be unnecessary. jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.… #vhdAS #cvSurg

This comprehensive review by Goel et al. explores the principles, procedural details, and outcomes of techniques including BASILICA, ShortCut, UNICORN, and newer methods like CATHEDRAL and Splitter. Each approach is discussed in the context of anatomical challenges, device

A new echocardiographic algorithm provides accurate classification of left ventricular filling pressure, reducing indeterminate cases, particularly in patients with preserved ejection fraction. Sherif F Nagueh ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.11…
