@ashleighlowther Clinically relevant rib fracture and pneumothorax are well seen on chest X-ray. And the exam can be done without moving the patient.

@pocusmeded This is the relevant image. Add that to the chest X-ray and you have what you need. hocus pocus

@DanielleMullis0 @Mitrovalvology @StanfordCTSurg Maybe some sort of T fastener would make for fewer knots. https://t.co/oRdRgcPGSR

@DanielleMullis0 @Mitrovalvology @StanfordCTSurg Such a cool view. Thanks

@criticaresnips @Mitrovalvology Assuming elevated pressure, would a shunt from the left atrial appendage to the left upper pulmonary vein utilize pulmonary vein distensibility—and simultaneously spare the left atrium?

@adithm13 Nice images. Why would the LV gram cause the thrombus to embolize? Is embolization more common with pvc? Does lv gram cause pvc?

@jskimMD This step interests me. Was it difficult to get the PV snare disengaged? Looks trivial in the fluoro scene, but I’m wondering if it has the potential to be more tricky?

@DrAidanShaw @IR_Doctor @keithppereira @IRDocFuji @Roger_Tomihama @KyleCooperMD @AustinChiangMD Is it similar to D-STAT ?

Interesting thread. Made me think of things from a different perspective.

I’ve been thinking a lot about a space that’s underserved in digital health: caregiver support. My thoughts below 🧵

@MichaelaHerber8 I think if you place the valve in the femoral vein, you must ablate the GSV.
I suppose if you put the valve in the EIV or CFV you wouldn’t necessarily need to ablate GSV.

Maybe we should use shockwave like device @ShockwaveIVL for prep prior to balloon valvulopasty. Seems like it might be a more controlled approach to regaining valve pliability/function.

Seems it would be quite a level up on balloon valvuloplasty.

[Contact @startrekmedtech]

Could shockwave like device be used to restore pliability/function to sclerotic aortic and mitral valves? 🤔

[Aaysha Cader @aayshacader]

Our first case of @ShockwaveIVL 🎈at @CardiacIbrahim performed today by my mentor @drsaidurrahman2 - grateful for the opportunity to scrub in post-night call for the experience

@eytanraz @SiemensHealth Thinking more of the contrast bolus delivery rather than the c arm spin time. Maybe direct rather than fast? Anyway. Great images!

#dialysis #nephrology while we await the UCSF bio kidney (which is off the charts amazing) maybe we could improve hemodialysis?

[Contact @startrekmedtech]

Hemodialysis. I think initially the complexity of the machine dictated the access requirements. But maybe now we can rethink the machine to optimize for access site longevity? 🤔
