Have yet to comb through the manuscripts but I suspect I will be changing how I counsel patients. Agree with @JordanBloomMD: reop vs anticoagulants is one thing, dying sooner is a whole different matter

@Prasannasimha @rbarbosa91 That’s exactly why I spoke up. Not even all cardiac centers have this Gundry-type retrograde cardioplegia catheter. So the principal remains the same as for access for massive resuscitation: widest, shortest tube you can put into a venous structure

@MichaelMwachu @CtacSurg @Mark_PetersonMD @nyulangone @OuzounianMD @IHamamsy See you soon Mike!

@RakanINazer Agree 💯. For non-repairable aortic valve disease in the under 50, I try to steer them away from tissue prosthetic towards either mechanical or Ross depending on the case

@servicerotties So very sorry to learn of this. My thoughts are with you 🙏

It was standard practice for many peripheral arterial cases when I rotated through their service and I learned how to do it as well

@TechLiandr Are they doing anything about it? I had the last three years worth of notes with a lot of important info disappear 😫

@StephaneLeung Nice work Steph! Is that a CTAG? 10 cm long?

@BobbyYanagawa @UnityHealthTO @SmithNephewPLC @UofTCVsurgery @UofTSurgery @smithnephew Any info about how this is different/same as a Prevena, which is also a negative pressure wound dressing?

@HElgharablyMD @CleClinicHVTI Another great technical manuscript and video! Any plans to do something similar for the current CCF approach for MVR in severe MAC?

@TomJumboGrumbo 😔

@J_Landau @farkomd Including reaccess through the Viabahn?

Proof that it’s not always benign

RT @AATSHQ: Look at interim registry 5-year follow-up results for patients with low-dose warfarin with a novel mechanical #aortic valve for…

I won’t be doing an ED thoracotomy any time soon but nice figure demonstrating the exposure you get with different thoracic incisions

@HElgharablyMD @CleClinicHVTI Another great tutorial & video Haytham! Keep them coming 😉

@MarcPPelletier @HarringtonHVI @CWRUSOM @YaleCardiacSurg @YaleSurgery Congratulations @MarcPPelletier ! Yale is lucky to have you!
