When you’re one of the few, 2.2% hits differently As a woman performing TAVR & M-TEER in community practice, this resonates deeply Grateful for our team @DoylestownHlth May these statistics become history for the next generation! doi.org/10.1016/j.jscai.2026… #WIC #StructuralHeart

Negative studies are just as important as ➕. Key to not let our desire for a➕ result change how we interpret results. This leads to ⬆️ costs w/o pt benefit, inappropriate media coverage & pt confusion! #CardioTwitter has huge influence-we have to be responsible #patientoutcomes – at Pennsylvania, USA

Are we changing how we interpret results! or are we ignoring the lack of statistical significance & using numerically better as "evidence" for IV ferric... administration being better?! published in @TheLancet thelancet.com/journals/lance… @IronmanKalra @AHAMeetings

No diff in outcomes w/ immediate VA-ECMO vs early conservative strategy in SCAI D-E CS. Though no diff in complications, 1.40% pts in conservative arm needing ECMO eventually. 2.Only 13/58 pts w/ LV venting w/ IABP/Impella in immediate VA-ECMO group. doi.org/10.1161/CIRCULATIONA… – at Pennsylvania, USA

Tips for successful T-TEER: 1.Coaptation gap is crucial (<8.5mm), 2.Imaging is key (4D ICE—game changer), 3.Respirophasic changes affect coaptation gap, 4.Maneuvers like valsalva, PEEP, chest compressions and reverse trendelenberg may help ⬇️ coaptation gap #TCT2022 #TEER

Tricuspid TEER in symptomatic severe TR patients—consistent symptom improvement, high safety signals, durability likely good, TEE imaging of TV may be a technical limitation (high SLDA rate) and ICE skills may be needed. Most importantly, prospective RCTs are needed #TCT2022

The benefit of 4 clip sizes w/ G4 system—“There can be a patient-clip mismatch where you could pick the wrong clip size—in general 80-90% of the time the first clip choice will be either NTW or XTW depending on leaflet length” #TCT2022 #GaganDSingh #TEER #MitraClip

Knowing strengths and weaknesses of each valve platform is crucial as a TAVR operator—which valve platform is the right one for your patient is dependent on a lot of different factors! #TCT2022 @Medtronic @anvoramd #HemalGada #Boston @crfshj @TCTConference @crfheart
