We are deeply saddened to have lost our founding chairman and the father of modern academic cardiology, Dr. Eugene Braunwald, who founded the TIMI Study Group in 1984, and with that vision profoundly shaped the practice of cardiovascular medicine across the world.
The last paragraph of this editorial is the first thing we teach our interventional fellows.
“In general, the benefit from any percutaneous intervention in cardiology is often the greatest with regard to the most acute or life-threatening problem the patient is facing. In contrast, in clinical situations in which the patient’s life is not directly at risk and the symptoms are controllable by medical treatment, conservative management should always be considered to be an equally effective alternative.”

Interesting paper in. In patients with cardiogenic shock after #AMI and cardiac arrest, targeting a higher MAP (80-100) lead to a smaller size infarcts. More work is needed but this could be a practice changing!
