Thousands of medical students and recent medical graduates from abroad attempt to secure research or related job positions in the United States every year. Most attempts are unsuccessful, and unfortunately the odds become tougher every year as applicants are more in quantity and

Congratulations Team!!

2025 US guidelines for the management of ACS (STEMI and NSTE-ACS) just released. Insertion of a microaxial flow pump (Impella) to prevent death in in cardiogenic shock has received a class IIa LOE B-R recommendation. IABP and VA-ECMO are class III for rourine use.

The eagerly awaited 2025 ACC/AHA ACS guidelines were released yesterday! Congrats to Sunil V. Rao Michelle O'Donoghue and all the co-authors 1/ Here are some of my takeways

Differential diagnosis of Himalayan “P” waves 1: Ebstein’s 2: Tricuspid stenosis/pulm stenosis 3: Restrictive cardiomyopathy 4: COPD, Cor Pulmonale 5: Tricuspid atresia 6: complete heart block (Cannon waves)

Takeaways from #ACC2025. Late breaking trials - take home points American College of Cardiology   1. WARRIOR Trial : Intensive medical therapy did not significantly impact the rate of serious cardiovascular events at five years in women with suspected ischemia with nonobstructive coronary arteries

Answer: marked increase in RA pressure. Note high velocity, broad A wave as well as lower velocity, not late peaking systolic reversal.

Happy to see HV Doppler from Edgar Argulian . Diastolic flow reversal indicates high RA pressure. Interesting though it happens with expiration. Etiology of high RA pressure? Helpful to see medial e'. See HV Doppler of various etiologies from my Feb 2020 tweet below. Abdul Jamil Tajik
