BackTable Vascular and Interventional

Going from hours-long open thrombectomies to 30 or 40 minute endovascular cases has made a temporary flow arrest easy to tolerate, says Dr. Khanjan Nagarsheth (@KNagarshethMD).

He and Dr. Shang Loh then work through Dr. Sabeen Dhand's (@SDhandMD) next scenario, an occluded common femoral and iliac segment, and explain when they still prefer a cut down or lysis.

The hardest moment in a liquid case is the one where you still cannot see the embolic.

Dr. Kavi Krishnasamy (@kavikrishVIR) shows Dr. Tyler Sandow (@bayouteazy) and Dr. Gary Siskin (@gsiskin) a roadmap mask that subtracts the field and makes the first drop, and any reflux along the catheter, visible. They discuss where motion defeats it and the dead space arithmetic that tells you when to start looking.

You removed the clot and the pulmonary artery pressure did not move. Does that mean the procedure failed?

Dr. Jay Giri (@jaygirimd) and Dr. Julie Bulman (@juliecbulman) join Dr. Chris Beck (@beckcj) to explain why PA pressure is pulled in several directions, what clinical signals to trust, and how focusing on real patient improvement leads to better outcomes.

These patients get worse before they get better, and everyone touching them needs to know it.

Dr. Ripal Gandhi and Dr. Anahita Dua (@AnahitaDua) join Dr. Chris Beck (@beckcj) on counseling patients and referring physicians after deep venous arterialization. They discuss the pain and swelling that are expected rather than alarming, the drop-off around thirty days, and why the handoff back to the treating team matters as much as the case.
