The key is good vessel preparation which will invariably involve a cutting balloon

Excited to join friends at #CPC2026 tomorrow and meet my 🥕🥕nemesis @DrMarthaGulati
I'll be talking about PCI aswell as lipid management in secondary prevention
I successfully defended my PhD Thesis at Keele university.
It was a long journey full of great achievements...started as ACF and continued as a PhD fellow
A huge thank you to my supervisors @mmamas1973 and @drrashid05 who guided me along the way
@Tesslagra Ferdinand was the most important and inspirational teacher and mentor in my career
My time as a fellow at the OLVG hospital was a key and pivotal moment in my career
Ferdinand and his colleagues changed the course of IC and patients benefited enormously from their work

No money for vital staff or infrastructureaccording to our politicians, but plenty of money to help private health care companies exploit the NHS

Congratulations to @divaka_perera & the team …. Important message to interventionists who have allowed non evidence based intuition to influence their choice of impella in high risk pci!? It does not improve patient outcomes
