@drmomani @MarleneGMD @AnandPrasadMD @AdesolaAdenegan Sweet technique to snare the pigtail

@OsamahBasilMD @JulietaMadridMD I spelled their name in my reply 😏

[Vicken Zeitjian, MD, FACC @VZeitjian]

@JSmithEchoes21 Wow looks like a ginormous inferolateral aneurysm. From prior MI, sarcoid?

[Vicken Zeitjian, MD, FACC @VZeitjian]

@DrSaririan Yeah out of the 3 limb leads putting 2 of those on legs really brings up a large question mark 😅

[Vicken Zeitjian, MD, FACC @VZeitjian]

@RonPaul Nothing new here. You have to have all primary prevention vaccines ie influenza, MMR, hep B, etc in order to get listed and receive a transplant. Covid is part of that list since immunosuppression puts them at higher risk. I don’t know why people are surprised

@amritzyh Metformin —> diarrhea lol

[Vicken Zeitjian, MD, FACC @VZeitjian]

@rajivasr @ecgrhythms @UlhasDr Agree with @DrSaririan. Other ddx could be LGL accessory pathway since there is short PR but no delta waves. Could get pseudoinfarct pattern with accessory pathway

@drmomani @UTHealthSA @FawadVirk1 @elias_ghazwan @UTHealthSAValve @AkhtarAminMD We are lucky to have you. Well deserved

[Vicken Zeitjian, MD, FACC @VZeitjian]

@DavidLBrownMD So discouraging seeing this when trying to practice evidence based medicine but keeping the patient satisfied at the same time

[Vicken Zeitjian, MD, FACC @VZeitjian]

@DrSaririan My goodness, syncope, heart failure, chest pain, all of the above? This must be a record 😵

[Vicken Zeitjian, MD, FACC @VZeitjian]

@kavita_says “Safer” yes but don’t think it could be answered as a yes/no. Risk of getting one of the strands of Covid will still be there. Hopefully mild disease if it occurs

[Vicken Zeitjian, MD, FACC @VZeitjian]

@drmomani Haha mitraclip cake, amazing!
