The ORBITA-2 Editorial in NEJM, just published, states: "There are now two evidence-based pathways for the management of stable angina: initiation of medical therapy, followed by more intensive therapy and then PCI if the medical therapy fails to relieve symptoms or if the

Three neutral trials were presented today at #ACC24, and we've already noted: · Statistical interactions and positive subgroups. · Simultaneous publications emphasizing "trends". · Significant p-values for secondary outcomes. Certainly, never discard the baby with the

Presented today at #ACC24: In the DanGer Shock trial involving patients with STEMI and cardiogenic shock, mortality at 6 months was lower with mechanical circulatory support with a microaxial flow pump than with standard care alone. Full trial results: nej.md/3xyXU3t

Congratulations to the DanGer shock team! Criticism: - Impella placed before PCI in most cases - >40% RRT in Impella arm ‼️ - also more bleeding & infections - No increase in days alive & out of hospital Holger Thiele Christophe Vandenbriele Susanna Price Ana Viana Tejedor

Good morning #ehra2024 and #ACC2024 Here is my take on the DanGer Shock trial. It's positive. That's good. But let's be careful in applying these results to patients. medscape.com/viewarticle/10…

New ESC Chronic Coronary Syndrome Guidelines just out. For LM stenoses w/ low Syntax Score, both surgery and PCI - as long as full revasc is possible - have Class IA recommendation.

Interesting trial that raises some questions: A). Median time to PCI 5 days - odd for a contemporary NSTEMI population B). Only 49% in the Inv arm got revasc - either no sig CAD or CTOs? C) 5% got POBA I suspect more data and details will be in forthcoming publications.
