Great to do first TEER case today with @BashirAlaour and @MahmoudiMichael at Southampton Spire hospital. Imaging: Paul Diprose and GA: Andy Curry. Great result. Good to now offer this service to Spire patients. Thanks to Thelma and great @spirehealthcare team & @EdwardsLifesci

I've been trying with the BMA research team to produce one graph to rule them all. Real terms pay with inflation indexed on the same graph. Look at the CPI dotted line, our pay, the average public sector worker, worker & our comparators. It's not pretty! ONS & NHS digital

#BCISACI @NickCurzen with a superb breakdown of the data underlying complete revascularisation in stemi.

Nick combines opinion with scientific endeavour- pleased to be part of his PICNIC trial

I have come to the inescapable conclusion that most people commenting on rescues like this haven’t got the first clue what they’re talking about.

“Bill them for the rescue” is by far the most common. Here are three reasons why this comment is idiotic.

@ncurzen Astonishing. They really were very tough….. imagine doing that with a hangover 😳

[curzen @ncurzen]

This is amazing!

Does anyone know of any companies that supply UK who still make OTW balloons? We are struggling to find a supplier. Although we no longer need for coronary work they are invaluable for ASA- the only reason we want them. Any recommendations welcome. 🙏

@wesstreeting Maybe ask/listen to doctors first @wesstreeting ?

Also need to make NHS Managers as accountable as doctors please??

This is, without a doubt, the best commercial I've seen in years... 🥰

Finally!!!
I always believed contrast-induced nephropathy is just an urban myth

[Dr Tony Goldstone @goldstone_tony]

This covers
- 1995/2015, 2008-2015 (with/without McCloud) & 2015 only
- hospital doctors or GPs
- added years
- can add actual PSS when (if!) you receive it
- help plan CURRENT 25/26 year (when you can do something about it)

PPCI 2025 @PPCImeeting underway in Leeds with a thought-provoking keynote lecture by @ncurzen. Thanks to all sponsors and @MillbrookMed to make this happen - looking forward to the rest of the talks @krishnaraj82 @SameerKurmani @DamienCollison @LabsLtht

[Jim Nolan @nolanjimradial]

This is a big problem in the NHS

[Yuri Pride @yuripridemd]

One more sigh of relief for on-call ICs

[No Farmers, No Food @NoFarmsNoFoods]

Good advice.

[curzen @ncurzen]

Fully trained interventional cardiologists @BCIS_uk have been offering to train to help deliver mechanical thrombectomy for stroke here for 5 years now (following precedent set in many other countries) but are thwarted by protectionism & politics. 😳. Let’s put Patients first?!

[Benoy Shah MD @dr_benoy_n_shah]

Those of us that desperately wanted change...

That really wanted a change in direction of the RCP...

That wanted greater respect & consideration towards our doctors in training...

Will be bitterly disappointed this evening

[Dan O'Hara @skeuomorphology]

I'm reading the BMA doctors' testimonies about physician and anaesthesia associates.

Horror story after horror story.

Here's just one of them.

[Dr Asif Qasim MA PhD FRCP @DrAsifQasim]

One week to go in the RCP election - we have an opportunity to revitalise the College

If elected I am committed to leading with integrity to restore the voice of the physicians, and resolving the RCP's financial and property issues.

It really is time for change - Vote Asif Qasim

Let's make our College something we can be proud of!

Your endorsement sends a powerful message to your FRCP colleagues - please encourage them to vote before 14th April.

[curzen @ncurzen]

The recurrence rates for symptomatic AF surely demand a rethink about the application of ablation to this population? Isn’t it time to find out who is likely to benefit & who isn’t? Do the patients with recurrence get advised to have it again?
