OPTIMAL suggests that using IVUS in unprotected left main PCI may cost you 22 minutes with no clinical benefit. One might think it’s an outlier. Yet, the same day, IVUS-CHIP reports no advantage of IVUS over angiography in complex high-risk PCI. Either we have been fundamentally misinterpreting the evidence so far, or we urgently need to reconcile these data. #ACC26

Our #whyCMR paper in @JACCJournals shows that reperfused STEMI with intramyocardial hemorrhage (IMH) have a much higher risk of MACE than STEMI with MVO but not IMH. IMH=key culprit driving MACE post-MI. @lechner_i @imed_tweets https://t.co/emcs1mvGed
Presented today at #ACC24:
In the DanGer Shock trial involving patients with STEMI and cardiogenic shock, mortality at 6 months was lower with mechanical circulatory support with a microaxial flow pump than with standard care alone. Full trial results: https://t.co/3625asvzu8

This morning on @Sensible__Med the Study of the Week is the ECLS-SHOCK trial.
Gosh does it teach us important lessons. Not only about cardiogenic shock but the importance of randomization

Congrats--again--to @thiele_holger et al

Presented at #ESCCongress:
In this randomized trial, extracorporeal life support did not improve 30-day survival as compared with usual care in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock.

Here’s a video I made breaking down my perspective on what happened to Damar Hamlin on January 2nd, 2023. He has now officially come out and confirmed the diagnosis. Retweet to spread awareness.
#eBRAVE_AF trial: #AFib screening using conventional smartphones more than doubles the detection and treatment rate in older people compared to routine screening.

#REVIVED trial: Percutaneous coronary intervention does not reduce all-cause mortality or #heartfailure hospitalisation in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction and extensive #coronary artery disease.
