@banks_AZ Cake eater!

[Amit N. Vora, MD MPH @anvoramd]

@SVRaoMD Thanks Sunil! Lots of fun working on this with @jfreeMD @tavrkapadia and colleagues!

@SVRaoMD Radial artery still seems fine…

@SVRaoMD Next you are going to say you hate Top Gun and didn’t see Top Gun: Maverick…

@AdamGreenbaumMD @CathElectroSurg @BabaliarosArgos @JCL3MD Regardless of what we call it - hopefully won’t be an issue with next generation platforms. @PradeepYadavMD @mirusmed

#NYValves2024: Could a novel TAVI device with a rhenium frame-more commonly found in implants for spinal surgery- promote improved durability v traditional materials

@PradeepYadavMD details the Mirus Siegel valve (@mirusmed)

@GilbertTangMD @DoctorHaz @AndreasRck2 @KHERA_MD @bapat_savrtavr @didier_tchetche @StevenYakubov @SachinGoelMD I completely agree Gilbert - we used to change wires, use counter-bends, etc but honestly the snare technique is very straightforward and works almost every time.

@SVRaoMD Better to just inject this directly into your veins

[Amit N. Vora, MD MPH @anvoramd]

@GilbertTangMD @CircIntv @DrAnoop_Koshy @ParasuramMD @KHERA_MD @DoctorKini @LucySafi @MountSinaiHeart @MountSinaiNYC @IcahnMountSinai Great study Gilbert- given the risk of PPI with deeper implant (and negative downstream consequences of PPI), important to balance immediate benefit of shallow implant with potential long-term implications. Leaflet mod (w comm alignmnt) key!

@kashishgoelmd @scaielm @SrihariNaiduMD @georgedangas @psorajja @colinbarkerMD @ChetRihal @nidhiguptatweet @crfheart @ACCinTouch It is a phenomenal program - you will love it

[Amit N. Vora, MD MPH @anvoramd]

@UCSFCardiology A huge loss for our program here but a great opportunity to build on the West Coast.

Congratulations Yousif you’ll be missed!!

[Amit N. Vora, MD MPH @anvoramd]

@SVRaoMD Probably came from the same geniuses that thought Rapiscan was a great name…

@MichaelGNanna @camfrazmills @DukeHeartCenter @YaleCardiology @jfreeMD @manesh_patelMD Colleagues - not co-fellows no more!!

Deployed first @EmbolineInc total body embolic protection device as part of the H2H trial in New England today at Yale New Haven Hosp. Excited to move the field forward! @YNHH @YaleCardiology @YaleCardiacSurg @johnkforrest @NoahHaroian @jay_sreenivasan @tnazifMD @AlexandraLansky

@RCdeWinter This has @SVRaoMD written all over it…

[Amit N. Vora, MD MPH @anvoramd]

@SVRaoMD You’re welcome Sunil - for all intensive purposes @mw_sherwood and I are honing in on a list comprised of your pet peeves. Would add Tony Gutierrez but he managed to get himself kicked off Twitter. @marcsamsky @MichaelGNanna

[Amit N. Vora, MD MPH @anvoramd]

@SVRaoMD @ABIMFoundation They got me for almost $1500. And the way I found out was when credentialing office at new institution said website listed I was “not certified in Interventional cardiology” when applying to be an interventional cardiologist. Hopefully something @SCAI can tackle soon.

[Amit N. Vora, MD MPH @anvoramd]

@SachinGoelMD @SamHorrMD @tavrkapadia @djc795 @GilbertTangMD @akcmahi @PedroMDMSc @adnanalkhouli @MCoylewright Given that many institutions are withdrawing their participation in USNWR rankings, have to wonder if/when there will be similar inflection point for these metrics. Misleading data worse than no data don’t you think?

[Amit N. Vora, MD MPH @anvoramd]

@mw_sherwood @SVRaoMD @JAGutierrezMD I will say though that @JAGutierrezMD is the one ordering fake cobras from China and putting them in various places at the Durham VA…

[Amit N. Vora, MD MPH @anvoramd]

Interesting direct-to-consumer marketing by @Abiomed at Boston Logan airport. Though I wonder who the “consumers” are - patients or cardiologists? TCT was a few weeks ago…
