Despite its infrequent use, in this meta-analysis we found the use of ultrasound to guide transradial access improved success rates overall and faciliated access in 3/4 of those where palpation guided access had failed. Should we use it more often? doi.org/10.1016/j.hlc.2024.0……

Which is the optimal coronary artery bypass? Radial artery vs. internal thoracic artery or saphenous vein grafts. Read the 15-year clinical results of RAPCO trials in #EHJ

Radial artery bypass grafts stand the test of time, with lower MACE at 15-years compared to both the SVG and free RITA. Should we be avoiding transradial access in some circumstances in the cath lab to preserve the RA for use as a CABG conduit?

Analysis of 2780 patients comparing Radial Artery (RA) graft #PCI vs Native PCI vs #SVG PCI showed NO difference b/w RA PCI with either native or SVG PCI in 30-day outcomes or 3-year mortality. bit.ly/3JuovlX

In patients with prior CABG, RA graft PCI appears better tolerated then SVG PCI and a viable alternative to native vessel intervention if anatomically suitable. @JACCJournals jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jcin.…

🇦🇺 study demonstrating excellent safety of PCI in stable CAD. Also, prox LAD PCI did not confer a higher risk of MACE. Excellent summary in @thelimbiccardio Congratulations @GarryHamilton6 @JulianYeoh1 @drmatiasyudi @Austin_Health sciencedirect.com/science/ar… – at Manhattan, NY
A large proportion of patients with STEMI present without Pre-hospital notification and have longer ischaemic times. Systems of care tailored to individual health networks must aim to maximise efficiencies both for those with and without PN.

During the first covid-19 lockdown, patients who were having a heart attack delayed medical treatment by more than 6 hours. As we enter a second lockdown, we must remember every minute counts! @DrAnoop_Koshy @GarryHamilton6 @LouiseBurrell3 @DrJRamchand @dralexcmurphy
Research by Austin Health & @unimelb found that in the first lockdown, Victorian patients with severe chest pain were waiting 4 times longer on average to seek medical treatment amid fears of COVID-19 or overburdening the health system. Read in The Age: bit.ly/32E0kMT
