Gut feeling ...🧐

[Kimberly Atianzar MD FACC FASE @KimAtianzar]

Asked to do Cath on unstable angina pt who was waiting all day....coronaries fine...Gut feeling said “do an LV gram”😳. CMR set up today @mirvatalasnag @cardioPCImom @GBaqueroMD @atunuguntla1 @onco_cardiology @NadeenFaza

[CTO_complication @CTOcomplication]

Good case for discussion

[Shariq Shamim @ShariqShamimMD]

Hardest STEMI ever. #RadialFirst wire won’t go ostially. 5-6 other guides same issue, switched same femoral, nothing would engage, finally WRT guide fit (lifetime first use), Blue in then no balloons would go including sapphire and takeru 😫! Would you rotablate during STEMI?

[CTO_complication @CTOcomplication]

Interesting case. thanks

[Dr. Krzysztof Pujdak @KPujdak]

Yesterday's surprise. Pat had a PCI 4 months ago in other institution. Now presenting with NSTEMI and angina. What can you see and how would you handle it? @PCRonline #RadialFirst @AGIKinterv @BotPci

Interesting #PCI video with a "what about". 🙄

Shocking a shocking LM! Good job #IVL. #cardiotwitter #Intervention #complexPCI #Cardiology

A big congratulations to the legend who helped introduce #ShockwaveIVL to the world with @DrJMHill doing our first coronary live case in Europe at #ACI2018...wishing you all the best Keith

This is correct and happening everywhere. people with #COVIDー19 phobia delays or do not come for medical help. Must be encouraged to seek immediate help when chest pain is the symptom. #Cardiology #cardiotwitter #STEMI

Very interesting article. #Covid_19 vs 1918 #flu pandemic. #NHS #doctor @GPrimarycaredoc

[Luai Tabaza @Tabaza]

Does this sound familiar? In 1918 the "Spanish flu" Pandemic hit the world amid WWI. The global losses caused by the pandemic far exceeded those of the war. The economy froze, meetings were banned and the healthcare system was overwhelmed. #Pandemic Newspaper scrapbook from 1918

Yes. People are afraid of going to hospital in #COVID19 era. late or not attending #STEMI are getting more. #Cardiology #cardiotwitter

[Omid Kiamanesh, MD, FRCPC @OKiamanesh]

STEMI rates are 'down' 70% in Milan because patients fear hospitals. Other groups using lytics over PCI for STEMI. These are some of the many downstream effects of COVID-19.

Great efforts for a #PCI case with #Impella and #shockwave #IVL in presence of a poor LV function. #cardiotwitter . well done 👍 @rzakir12

Cases nearly at standstill due to covid 19.. but today did a single access impella facilitated with shockwave in pt with nstemi, refractory CHF, LVEF 20% with severe calcified multiveseel disease with poor hemodynamics @MacAnsari @DrAmirKaki @ProtectedPCI @matheenkhuddus
