No Reserve? No Problem!
Low baseline Pd/Pa that approximates #FFR (i.e. exhausted vasodilatory reserve) a/w severe CAD. However, prognosis w/ #PCI + #GDMT is similar to those with intact vasodilatory reserve.

Drained this effusion on Thursday, my partner tried to pull drain on Saturday but felt resistance and patient was in a lot of pain. CT scan shows drain to be in pericardial space with no structural issues. Any thoughts on how to get this out#pericardiocentesis @ajaykirtane
@mirvatalasnag@ajaykirtane Thanks Mirvat, this is pre drainage echo, didn't upload the post drainage echo but he has minimal effusion. It was hemorrhagic though
@ajaykirtane Thank you, unfortunately no CT surgery back up onsite, it's 30 minutes away. I can attempt pulling over wire in the lab and if still resistant transfer patient to the surgical center. Have you ever tried tpa?
