This is great news!!! Can we vow to use it to gather great hemodynamics to help our patients and NOT inject contrast with force through it so it can stay on our shelves???? @MortonKern @kerrigjl @duanepinto @SVRaoMD @RajTayalMD
With all the cath lab equipment on back order at least some good news - Langston dual-lumen catheters are back! We all recall the clip of the severed pigtail during power injection. Problem was with the adhesive utilized, and it has since been fixed. #radialfirst
Proud to announce the upcoming publication of the 8th ed of kern’s Handbook. So thankful to all that helped contribute to this edition and to my co-editor @PaulSorajj74157 Expected for release later this year

Can’t remember what @DrAmirKaki said about axillary access as you plan your week with your #HeartTeam?? Check out the @SCAI POINT OF CARE app and you will have the document at your fingertips!! @RajTayalMD @georgedangas @SVRaoMD @Babar_Basir


Understanding hemodynamics = better care of our patients!! Bravo Nils! @MortonKern @DavCox61 @Herms2James @PopmaJeffrey
#TCTAP2023 #AorticStenosis Dr Nils Johnson at #TCTAP SAVI-AoS trial SAVI: 🟰 FFR for AS: How much does the valve limit peak flow? FFR stenotic valve —————————- FFR normal valve 👉 In the cath lab = procedure like FFR #GorlinFormula #DeltaPoverQ
As much as the Handbook is a way of being a resource, it is also serves to make sure those with the knowledge to pass on are given the opportunity! You are now the resource and we are proud that you and our other authors made our most recent edition the best it can be!!
Life is so funny. Used to read the IC handbook often as a practical resource & reminder before cases. Grateful @AlejandroLemor & I got to be a part of the 5th edition. Thanks @mjlimmd @psorajja @MortonKern I got my copy today!!!
