No reflow is worse than original occlusion. IVUS = dissection/thrombus/embolism. Normal IVUS; air, microvascular injury or low TM perfusion pressure. IC 💉 must be selective & after MCS “if needed”. 👇 IC 1 mg adenosine, 1 mg verapamil, 0.5 mg nicardipine & integrillin = resolved

90 yrs F STEMI, radial access challenges = small size, stenosis & tortuosity, coronary wire was used to cross while glide wires will not work. Completed diagnostic but needed femoral for pci. One option to use 35 cm slender sheath. Early shift to femoral can be a wise choice.

Another war crime committed by Israel on my Family in Gaza. Today, my second cousin, Ahmed, was killed along with his very young daughter and his mother in law. They were bombed in their refugee camp. These daily war crimes should come to an end.. #SilenceIsComplicity

Best access for cardiac cath in patients with occluded radial artery is the occluded radial artery. Need to access artery DISTAL to occlusion recanalize & insert 23 cm slender glide sheath. #accfit

Is there coronary guide extender has hydrophilic coating or it’s better for manipulation tortious vessels? @md_SsAhmad @Babar_Basir @DrAmirKaki @evandrofilhobr

“We don’t give them food. We don’t give the Arabs anything, they will have to leave. The world will accept them.” These are the words of Daniella Weiss, the former mayor of the settlement “Kedumim” in the West Bank when interviewed at the “Return to Gaza” conference. The conference is about devising a plan to re-establish Israeli settlements in Gaza on top of recently destroyed Palestinian communities. She affirms that Palestinians will have to leave Gaza because of besiegement, which paves the way for Israel to re-establish its settlements in Gaza.

🇺🇳🇵🇸🇮🇱 UN ACCUSES IDF OF 11 EXECUTIONS WITH FAMILIES IN THE NEXT ROOM “On 19 December 2023, between 2000 and 2300 hours, IDF reportedly surrounded and raided Al Awda building, also known as the “Annan building”, in Al Remal neighborhood, Gaza City, where three related families were sheltering in addition to Annan family. According to witness accounts circulated by media sources and Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, while in control of the building and the civilians sheltering there, the IDF allegedly separated the men from the women and children, and then shot and killed at least 11 of the men, mostly aged in their late 20’s and early 30’s, in front of their family members. The IDF then allegedly ordered the women and children into a room, and either shot at them or threw a grenade into the room, reportedly seriously injuring some of them, including an infant and a child. OHCHR has confirmed the killings at Al Awda building, although the details and circumstances of the killings are still under verification. IDF has not released any information on the incident.” Source: United Nations Human Rights

Comment on a post about Israeli soldiers mocking people of Gaza struggles, loosing home & forced displacement, this person had this cruel comment that is not backed by any evidence. Hate in heart & sickness in mind. Why this hateful speech allowed in twitter. @elonmusk

Today, my mother’s cousin along with 8 of her other cousin’s grandchildren were killed in an Israeli air strike where they were sheltering in Southern Gaza (Rafah). Their whole neighborhood in Rimal, northern Gaza was razed to the ground. War crimes must stop. Ceasefire now.

Can’t believe this could ever happen by human being to babies.
The US State Department acknowledges reports that IDF forced nurses to abandon babies in hospital, starving them, who were later found decomposed when staff were allowed to return. Yet refuses to say it’s a war crime. No words left to describe what’s been done to the Palestinians

If you have difficulty advancing IVUS or moving back & forth, u can do imaging inside guideliner. It should be clear except at tip of catheter. These IVUs images from inside guideliner. #ACCFIT

One technique for engaging difficult Ant take off RCA with poor support. Loop wire in sinus and anchor balloon to deliver guide-liner. Sometimes only feasible way to engage after Medtronic TAVR valve. #aacfit

Bombarded twice in Gaza, 4-year-old Ahmed lost his parents in the first then his legs in the second attack - Reuters. The boy keeps asking for his parents, and he wants to get up and walk, but his parents are dead and his legs have been amputated.
