Pregnant Cardiology Trainees Report High Complication Rates, Lack of☢️Safety 🤔many fellows/training centers are so focused on learning proficiency in catheter/PCI techniques ☢️falls by the wayside. RTs can be a bastion of help to follow ALARA protocols tctmd.com/news/pregnant-…

I find this eerily similar to baseball ⚾️ decision making when a manager is using analytics vs “going with their gut” Hey, ChatGPT: Surgery or the Cath Lab?’ Study Shows AI Can Aid Decision-Making tctmd.com/news/hey-chatg…

These subclavian loops (i feel) are more challenging than aberrant Subclavians. More points of contact and torque lost in loops ➰. What’s your threshold for switching access typically? #radialfirst

Rich_cathRT(CI)☢️ RadialFirstBot Low With a high degree of expertise and appropriate kit you can overcome this sort of difficulty But this is at the cost of an increased risk of complications Going to the left arm will usually be a good solution Optimised TFA is always there if issues are bilateral

Rich_cathRT(CI)☢️ RadialFirstBot This is where 75 and 85 cm 7F and 8F sheaths would be so useful; using the 6F intermediate length sheaths solves a lot of this (if you can get to the root)

Happy 13th birthday to my boy. The sarcasm and rebelliousness are in full force. 😁 Celebrating with a beautiful shorthanded goal.

I still hear some say that ultrasound guidance for femoral arterial access isn't necessary & doesn't reduce complications. This CircInterventions meta-analysis suggests otherwise. You need to develop proficiency with U/S to get the best results ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.11…
