Welcome to the Ostial Stenting With Guide Extension Catheter Tip Technique: a novel approach enabling precise ostial and bifurcation stenting using a guide extension catheter https://t.co/Alfop7WzBQ @ccijournal
Here's a case describing a novel technique (the double-DCB technique) for the treatment of recurrent in-stent restenosis by applying 2 different DCBs, thereby avoiding the implantation of another layer of metal in our patients. https://t.co/dXa5lfToF9 #JACCCaseReports#PCI
Sebelum punya anak, gue agak mengerti kenapa Chef Juna berpikir kayak gini. Apalagi gue gawe di konsultan yang deadlinnya seketat karet sempak.
Tapi pas punya anak...
Jangan kan absen demi nemenin anak sakit. Anak gua minta gue teriak "Hidup Jokowi" juga gua bakal lakuin.
Which is your favourite workhorse wire #CardioTwitter
And why is it Sion Blue 💙?
Remarkably versatile , handles majority of everyday lesions
Predictable tactile feedback and excellent trackability
Superb device delivery support
Forgiving , safe tip behavior ; no perf till date across 6k+ PCIs
Especially reliable in tortuous and moderately calcific anatomy
IMO, Japanese wires remain a class apart in terms of feel and engineering.
PS - No financial interest whatsoever for this post , just too much love for this beauty and felt it deserved a mention 🥰

DCB use in de novo PCI is expanding, but optimal guidance remains unclear.
This viewpoint discusses the potential role of intracoronary imaging to guide lesion selection, preparation, and optimisation—highlighting key evidence gaps.

Complete revasc (CR) in pts with non-shock STEMI and multivessel ds. reduces MACE. But is the best timing for non-culprit lsn PCI immediate (during primary PCI) or staged? Our new meta-analysis publ in Circ CV Interv suggests immediate CR may increase mortality, same as in shock.
Virtual head-to-head study of 7 postdilation techniques in provisional LM bifurcation PCI:
• POT-only or P-S-P: suboptimal
• Sequential + simultaneous KBI: best, especially in fibrotic/calcified plaques
• Final POT after KBI: no added benefit
The American Heart Association mourns the passing of the legendary cardiologist Eugene Braunwald, M.D., widely recognized as one of the most influential figures in the history of cardiovascular medicine. Over seven decades, his work reshaped the understanding and treatment of heart disease, leading many to call him the father of modern cardiology.
Braunwald was a lifelong contributor to the American Heart Association, helping advance its research and scientific mission, and was honored with some of the Association’s highest honors for his lasting influence on cardiovascular care and research. His influence extended well beyond his own discoveries, as generations of Association‑supported investigators, clinicians and academic leaders were trained by Braunwald or guided by the clinical trial standards and mentorship models he helped establish.

With deep sorrow, I received the news of Dr. Eugene Braunwald’s passing, one of the greatest figures in world cardiology.
His scientific legacy, clinical vision, and immeasurable contribution to generations of cardiologists will continue to live on in our daily practice and in the history of medicine.
My heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, students, and to the entire cardiology community. May he rest in peace.
This is very important for resource poor settings, RODIN -Cut, with high pressure CB dilatation 4 times can give better IDE. Optimised angioplasty with limited resources is possible. OPTIMAL, IVUS CHIP point one thing, learn from imaging and practice everyday same, you will get equivalent results. https://t.co/ELrujOvcaD

An Real Time IVUS Guided PCI Primer!
Here is a ‘must watch’ video for anyone who uses IVUS regularly.
RTIG ostial PCI is a 🔥 topic and @SarahFairley7 is one of the best in the business.
She is both a skilled operator and a gifted teacher! I could listen to her talk about RTIG - or anything really - for hours! 🤩
