@DrAmirKaki @ShariqShamimMD He had to call twice. Lol. Was a long night.

@VladLakhter @willsuh76 @EricSecemskyMD @EmileMehanna @HadyLichaaMD @ShariqShamimMD @FaroucJaffer @DougDrachmanMD @GParmar_MD @SahilAgrawalMD Someone needs to figure out how much calcium, what shapes, how much angulation predicts this after SI crossing. There must be IVUS clues.

@Allison_Dupont @richardbogle @ProfDFrancis @mmamas1973 @jedicath @Dr_Stig @mirvatalasnag @DrAsifQasim Use Minamo. No issues.

@rwyeh @richardbogle @ProfDFrancis @mmamas1973 @jedicath @Dr_Stig @mirvatalasnag @DrAsifQasim @aspergian1 @jcspratt It's a wire issue (coating). Well known. Use Minamo.

@TheNarulaSeries @JayMathewsMD @ShariqShamimMD @ajaykirtane @bkolskk @raghugollapudi1 @mucox25 @JuliaAnsari1 @Dr_Bitar @DrSheilaSahni If you asking about the 10 mg IC dose....there is no systemic effect. Usual practice. Full dose, closure.

@DavidLBrownMD @SVRaoMD @rwyeh @ajaykirtane @djc795 So you know the results from the 2009 survey? Maybe it was higher then.

[Aaron Grantham @grantham_aaron]

@ShariqShamimMD @DrBillLombardi What you saw during live case.

Unfortunately industry funding for pci studies is drying up as their margins disappear and research costs skyrocket. Meanwhile take care of patients. Get better every day. Look for @DrBillLombardi 's tweets on purposeful practice. Good stuff.

Probably 20-25 teaching programs out of the 176 ACGME accredited PCI programs.

@SVRaoMD @ajaykirtane @J_M_McCabe @RhianEDavies1 @drmeghaprasad @DrBillLombardi @DrDarshanDoshi @RajaHatem @KateKearney4 @SanjogKalra @perc_surgeon That's fine, and the norm. Send your appropriately selected cases to @IzzyO_MD. That is what Duke hired him to do. If you and others do this he will be at 150/yr in a heartbeat.

@mucox25 @DrBillLombardi @ajaykirtane @CAThompson99 Oy vay! RCJH!!!

[Aaron Grantham @grantham_aaron]

Great day with Dr. Taishi Hirai at Mizzou and Dr. Tony Spaedy at Boone Co hospital. Two highly successful CTO/CHIP programs in Columbia Mo pop 120K. "The people that say it can't be done should get out of the way of those doing it" @DrBillLombardi @ajaykirtane @CAThompson99

@SVRaoMD @ajaykirtane @J_M_McCabe @RhianEDavies1 @drmeghaprasad @DrBillLombardi @DrDarshanDoshi @RajaHatem @KateKearney4 @SanjogKalra @perc_surgeon Perhaps the multibillion dollar DCRI would fund it? No one else will. We have asked repeatedly!

@jl35wilsonMD @SVRaoMD @ajaykirtane @RhianEDavies1 @drmeghaprasad @DrBillLombardi @DrDarshanDoshi @RajaHatem @KateKearney4 @SanjogKalra @perc_surgeon Far too few. Thats why there are so many skeptics on this thread. You don't know what you don't know.

@MatthewCertain @SVRaoMD @ajaykirtane @RhianEDavies1 @drmeghaprasad @DrBillLombardi @DrDarshanDoshi @RajaHatem @KateKearney4 @SanjogKalra @perc_surgeon I didn't write it, but can assure you that the authors don't need any more "business" and have dedicated countless hours to teaching others so that patients have equal access to care. #EURO CTO trial. The myocyte doesn't know if the artery is 99 or 100% occluded.
