HI-PEITHO key takeaways #ACC26

🫀 Intermediate-risk PE = stable patients with RV strain + positive biomarkers
⚖️ ultrasound-facilitated catheter-directed thrombolysis + AC vs AC alone in this “gray-zone” group
📉 ↓ Early clinical deterioration: 4.0% vs 10.3%
🚑 Benefit driven by ↓ hemodynamic collapse—not mortality
🩸 No ↑ major bleeding or ICH → supports selective early intervention

@olsonplanner Personally, I would put 50-75k to payoff student loans at a guaranteed 7% return, 25-50k invested into a portfolio I expect on average, over decades to make 8-9%+ per year. Stratify the “investment”.

@olsonplanner Agree- I went through a few tax accountants until I landed on someone hi has tons of physician specific tax experience and is outstanding.

@olsonplanner Getting back into to good shape (something I should try to do now but can’t seem to find enough time between work, family etc to do it as well as I’d like to)

@olsonplanner Can you suggest the best way to rebalance and how to know “how balanced” you are for the risk tolerance you want?

[Gilad Jaffe, MD @GiladJaffe]

@olsonplanner Thanks for everything you post. I find it super interesting, useful and really easy to follow.

@ross_prager I’m obviously biased as a pulmonologist, but I personally still find lung auscultation very useful. Cxr or pocus wont help me diagnose a Copd or asthma exacerbation, for example. Acutely, wheezing or absent breath sounds can provide me with some quick useful information.
