Another great meeting with our gracious hosts Professors De Luccia and Puech at USP. I learn something new from them every time! International collaboration @UCSFvascular
Day 1 of the 5th annual joint UCSF-USP symposium in Sao Paolo!
The 1% egregious actors are tip of the iceberg. The echo chamber ecosystem of KOLs, pseudo-societies and mass marketing meetings is a machine to promote overuse and misuse on a daily basis
Proud to be one of the first institutions designated by the new ACS-SVS Vascular Verification Program vascularspecialistonline.com/vascular-verif…
Sharing ideas and making friendships with a United goal to improve global vascular health❤️@UCSFvascular @UnifeCulture
UCSF-Unife Shared Training in Vascular Surgery: a beautiful meeting for Residents at the Educational Center of the Sant’Anna University Hospital #Ferrara @UCSFvascular @UnifeCulture @UniFerrara @SantAnnaNotizie @MichaelSConteMD
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33674157/. Please keep in mind when trying to interpret single arm data eg from the DVA studies it’s very challenging no control group “no option” CLTI is quite broad eg AFS 60%@ 1 Year
Well done!
Thank you to the Frank J Veith International Society for awarding us 1st prize for our work on a drug-eluting bioresorbable scaffold system for the femoropopliteal artery! #Efemoral @VEITHsymposium
Shown at the AHA presentation but not in the NEJM article. Not parallel, not close. Is what it is.
Vein bypass associated with <half total major reinterventions over time and no diff in MACE- clearly more effective than Endo by ITT
BEST-CLI shows bypass to be superior to endovascular revasc in pts with critical limb ischemia and a saphenous vein available as conduit with respect to primary outcome: MALE and all cause mortality! Also less amputations and reinterventions with bypass! #AHA2022
We are out in the world of evidence 🎉Enjoy the science, cardiovascular peeps!!!! #AHA2022 nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
BEST CLI landmark trial presented today at AHA by Drs Alik Farber and Matt Menard establishes evidence based care for CLTI
