#PAC 101 (The Catheter)
A cath lab pt just arrived in your ICU with a pulmonary artery catheter (#PAC) in place.
Your bedside nurse (limited #PAC experience) asks you to walk her through the basic PAC lumens and ports 😱
Fortunately for you, you had bookmarked the 🧵 👇🏻

Dual Antiplatelet Therapy De-Escalation in Stabilized Myocardial Infarction With High Ischemic Risk Post Hoc Analysis of the TALOS-AMI Randomized Clinical Trial: @JAMACardio
🥸This is on de-escalation of DAPT in AMI setting.
😱Summary below and happy holidays
The first coronary angioplasty was performed by Andreas Grüntzig on 16 September 1977
A UN resolution in 2022 has declared this day henceforth as the International Day for Interventional Cardiology to raise awareness of CVD & procedures as well as prevention and care. It notes that interventional cardio-angiology improves health, increases life expectancy and improves QoL, and the importance of angioplasty as a life-saving procedure.
Happy #InterventionalCardiology Day 2023!

Así es como hay que entender la obesidad:(1)
“We understand smoking is a problem. Alcoholism is a problem. It seems to be that if you’re overweight, that’s just your fault. We need help in realizing that obesity is an illness too,…”

When I was an intern, I didn't even know what GDMT stood for.
It was challenging for me to keep track of all of the heart failure medications.
There weren't any great resources to help me remember the key medications.
So I made one.
Let's go through them.

Reflexión del dia de hoy: hay que definir a tu audiencia y saber que siempre habrá algo que aportarle a la persona que esté dispuesta a escuchar. Ésto es un músculo y hay que entrenarlo.
aVR is a lead not usually inspected enough because it offers no specific view of the LV, but we can actually get a lot of data from it! Here are some specific conditions in which it can be helpful...
En el marco de nuestra 2° Sesión Estatutaria de este año 2023, escuchamos la opinión del Dr. Fernando Guadalajara, sobre el uso de la Inteligencia Artificial y la Telemedicina en la Cardiología.

The Brain Colouring Book is superb! I’m getting one and gifting a bunch of them to kids and adults I know. No, I don’t get paid to say this(!) @MarionVanhorn is a fellow neuroscientist and simply developed an awesome and fun educational tool. https://t.co/o518RgJLoa
You can’t get the chaos you want by pursuing chaos.
You get it by pursuing discipline.
Because if you want fun stuff to happen in your life you have to create enough stability where fun stuff can safely happen.
If you manage your finances the vacation becomes easier and if you manage your diet and exercise your body will have more freedom. If you train for emergencies then you’ll be capable of experiencing adventures.
Managing your finances or working out isn’t the point.
You’re not here to chase after the next rep and think that’s living.
You’re here to create order so the good chaos and creativity can come out to play.
Don’t turn discipline into a religion, turn it into a wall that protects you and a dragon that you can ride.
