Impressive data... although the indication for p wire assessment according to all the data should ideally be in the range 30-90%.... not just 40-70%?
FFR use has slowly increased & was associated w/ significantly lower 1yr mortality, say authors of VA CART analysis: 17,989 patients at 66 sites @wfearonmd @JACCJournals sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Agree this fascinating.... haven’t ever done this for scad myself. Strategy is to leave alone if possible but get in there if ongoing ischaemia and/or reduced flow. This is definitely an option I would consider for image-proven intramural haematoma

Agree... it is genuinely possible that one persons perception of an interaction was that it was sexist whilst the other just thought it was unsatisfactory without knowing why... or worse, not notice anything at all!? Increased awareness for everyone will be key

Only 10 % of CVA pts require mechanical thrombectomy so effective triaging necessary. In Spain done via a CT scan in the ambulance ! In the Uk we have delays getting STEMI pts to hospital! In Barcelona for #ESCheartandstroke @ShrillaB @CaraCarahendry @NickCurzen @nolanjimradial
