Takes One to Know One! Excellent hack from @jbspadoni to distinguish wire-induced spasm from dissection or geographic miss. 👌🏼😀 The real wonder is not that it works, but why? 👉🏼 The caravel has a hollow core and braided shaft, matching the coronary shape once the wire is removed. 👉🏼 Wire shafts, however, are stiff despite being thinner—thus more likely to induce spasm, even with a soft tip.
Managing tortuosify can be trick: Large guide for support Micro options (small with conform, large will straighten) Caravel without wire to sort pseudo from dissection DCB for the win

🚨 CHIP-BCIS3 randomised 300 patients with LVEF ≤35% undergoing high risk PCI to either micro axial flow pump or standard care ➡️ mAFP did not reduce major adverse clinical outcomes ⚠️ There was an excess of CV death in patients who received PCI with mAFP #ACC26 @BCIS_uk

Not everyone could master MAXROTA. However, anyone can easily boost ROTA effects even further by using the Carving ROTA. This is actually the true potential of ROTA. I hope I can present something on this technique at this year's CCT meeting.

BCIS are spearheading IVI use in Europe. Hopefully SCAAR can give them a match. 2025 results coming in April.
Intravascular imaging in the UK- as part of my live #BCISACI national data talk ➡️34% of all PCIs are undertaken with image guidance in UK with wide variation amongst centres. LMS PCI close to 80% ➡️Even ACS cases close to 30% of cases are imaged. I would argue that we are still not undertaking imaging enough- with little data on whether we are actioning the findings. ➡️imaging doesnt improve outcomes without using information it provides.

Plaque erosion now drives one-third of all acute coronary syndrome cases. Thanks to OCT, we can see the biology in real time and rethink treatment beyond plaque rupture. The era of personalized acute coronary sybdrome care is here. Read more in #EHJ. doi.org/10.1093/eurheartj/eh… #Erosion #Plaque #ACS #OCT #cardiotwitter @ESC_Journals @escardio

At ACI, the learning is world-class, and so is the networking. At this year's meeting there were +300 mentions of networking in the feedback, including: • “Excellent meeting for knowledge update and for networking with colleagues.” • “Good cases. Great networking opportunity.” • “Learning from other UK centres. Expanding my network.” Thoughts echoed by Dr Debar Resoul, incoming BJCA rep: “The networking is built-in – you’ll meet supervisors, collaborators and possibly even future employers in the coffee queue.” Join us at ACI 2026 for the conversations, connections and collaborations that move your practice — and your career — forward.
