As some have identified, this valve was in-folded. We successfully retrieved the valve and put in a new one. I want to expand on this issue a bit. 🧵
Would you release this 34 mm Evolut? Why or why not? @GuiAttizzaniMD @djc795 @akcmahi

Great review from the @SRValveCenter discussing the issues around valve crossing in bioprosthetic valve failure. Must read. I think if struggling too much or unsure, go transeptal! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3816… @alaide_chief @MMontorfanoOSR @PedroMDMSc

Watch out! 🕵🏻‍♂️ This is what could happen if you take the wrong wire pathway ❌ (see video below) Read our review of ViV TAVR crossing issues ➡️ sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #CardioTwitter #tavi

We helped in reporting incidence, predictors, and clinical impact of device-related complications when implanting 406 #Impella. The most frequent complications were hemolysis (12%), access-site bleeding (9.6%), and limb ischemia (8.3%). 🔗 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3438… #CardioTwitter

We used #Impella as a rescue strategy in the rare setting of balloon aortic valvuloplasty complicated by acute aortic regurgitation. Venting the LV helped to achieve hemodynamic stabilization as a bridge to treatment. 🔗 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3483… #CardioTwitter #FOAMcc

This is Louis. He works in the Arrhythmology unit of our Hospital. Two years ago, during the first #COVID19 wave, he was admitted to our ICU. Today he wants to thank all the doctors, nurses and physiotherapists and says "look how beautiful and in good shape I am now".
