Chest X-rays are powerful tools and often overlooked in era of CT imaging. Kerley B lines suggest CHF and or mitral stenosis. Termed by Irish radiologist James Kerley in 1933. And I got to treat one of his family members. #history #medtwitter #CardioTwitter #CXR #CHF #smallworld

NPO after midnight for a heart cath may soon be outdated business. We don't do it for STEMI patients. Study shows no harm and happier patients #radialfirst #PCI #CardioTwitter #Cardiology #catheterization #NPO

I'd also add insulin to the kit. 10u regular. One time I had a hyperglycemic passenger. Hydration was all I had to offer. You can ask other passengers for medications in last ditch efforts. FoodForThought. Be aware. Care for your fellow human beings. Volunteer when they need you

CMS finally states "CAS and CEA are similarly effective in patients with either standard or high surgical risk, and who are symptomatic with carotid artery stenosis ≥ 50% or asymptomatic with stenosis ≥ 70%" There's a place for TCAR, CEA and CAS.

Leadless cath lab suits! #radialfirst
Looks like lead! But it isn’t! Equivalent radiation protection with barium sulfate, bismuth oxide impregnated fabric. Lighter washable why didn’t I know bout this?

A robot can technically do steps of a #TAVR, but to have the ability to critically think, evaluate, predict complications, treat complications, and take long term responsibility is another level. TAVR is an advanced #cardiac procedure for trained doctors, not ARNPs #CardioTwitter
@GHCardiology this is so inappropriate on so many levels. Being a TAVR operator is not just about deploying a valve, but working up the pt for the optimal mx of their AS, managing the patient prior to procedure and dealing with complications. This is not safe for patients particularly given that there are numerous TAVI trained medically qualified operators in UK. You have also taken away training opportunities for medical / surgical trainees. @ncurzen @Ryvetsprog @pomyers @SVRaoMD @GreggWStone @VictorDayan1 @Hragy @mirvatalasnag @tavrkapadia @TAVRBot @TheBJCA @BCIS_uk @TCTMD @ajaykirtane @EAPCIPresident @alaide_chief
