US HCPs: Dr. Billy Kim at The Surgical Clinic used #LightningBolt6X 150 via radial access to remove thrombus from the SFA through the popliteal artery, demonstrating the valuable length. Great work! #CAVT

US HCPs: Dr. Michal Nawalany at Lee Health used #LightningBolt6X 150 to reach the tibial artery, remove thrombus and restore flow. Learn more: https://t.co/giwNFO7loV

@MichaelMegalyMD@willsuh76@PCRonline Great Tip!
Abbott reps can’t tell you to do this.
Why? Guidant reps once instructed doctors to manipulate the Ancure device the same way — it led to the device’s recall. No device company or rep from that era ever forgot the lesson.
@unlimited_ls So sad. PE is the number one cause of post-op death from abdominoplasty, aka Tummy Tuck (Although it doesn’t sound like the case here). RIP, Rachel. Prayers to the family.
US HCPs: We recently highlighted results from the STRIDE Study. Hear Principal Investigator Dr. Dan Clair speak on what outcomes will be measured for the ongoing STRIDE II evaluation. #CAVT#ALI

Super cool stuff presented @clotsheadtotoe by @JayMathewsMD on the new Gore Fortegra
Finally a dedicated Caval and Bi Iliac vein deep venous stent. Really promising flow characteristics, flexibility, and radial strength

Ended the week with a great PEN FLASH 3.0 case. Up and over and able to treat the infrapopliteal confluence and the saphenous collaterals. Went PTV and flossed from above (felt like an arterial case!) Treating the inflow may shift the paradigm!
venous disease experts need to be well versed in multiple techniques/devices. Still need better way to treat chronic distal fem/pop disease!
@clotsheadtotoe TIME!! See everyone in Orlando!

When @SIRRFS highlights STORM-PE, it speaks volumes.
This isn’t just industry—it’s @PERTConsortium level one evidence. MT + AC showed superiority over AC alone for intermediate-high risk PE.
The next generation of IR is taking notice.
IR can perform mechanical thrombectomy in order to treat pulmonary embolism (PE). This infographic shows new ground-breaking results from the STORM-PE trial supporting the use of thrombectomy for PE and its superiority over anticoagulation alone.
