When Daniel Greco of Lake Grove went into cardiac arrest at an ATM machine in Melville, our Northwell NetworkCare team members immediately started CPR, which restarted his heart – twice.
Last week, Daniel returned to thank the team who gave him a second chance at life. ❤️
Patient from several years ago with new onset heart failure two months after ascending aortic replacement-was told that his new murmur is a flow murmur that is normal after surgery. Aortic valve area was also normal as was AB index. What is the diagnosis?
Presented today at #TCT2023:
Among patients at low surgical risk who underwent TAVR or surgery, there was no apparent difference between groups in the composite end point of death, stroke, or rehospitalization at 5 years.

.@WilliamShiMD et al find a systematic approach to MAC debridement, involving excision of the entire calcium bar & annular reconstruction, can be used in patients undergoing either isolated or combined complex mitral valve surgery. Read more: https://t.co/urbp3sezEA #OpenAccess
My #tavr valve bottom is strange and inappropriate. To deploy or not to deploy? Slow inflation, rapid pace, and strut inappropriateness resolved uneventfully. #betterluckythangood

The best way to avoid SVG failure is to incompletely revascularize and only graft large targets. But that does not help the patient in the short term. Medium/long term SVG failure=part of the game on patients with poor targets-still worth doing for the immediate post op benefit.
