🚨🚨NEW TRIAL DESIGN NOW ONLINE
Should revascularisation decisions consider both ischaemia and plaque vulnerability?
The COMBINE-INTERVENE Trial tests an integrated FFR- and OCT-guided PCI strategy in patients with multivessel disease.

My Perclose rep taught me the formal names of the @AbbottCardio Perclose tools - the suture trimmer, and the snared knot pusher. Nice! (Pic off Abbott website)

DCBs For De Novo Disease - Are We Too Late In The US?
I may have spoken too soon! 😂
@SanjogKalra’s eloquent take on why DCBs have taken so long to reach the US market was every bit as thoughtful—and thought-provoking—as @FaroucJaffer’s.
Take a listen to this 1-minute clip!
With these two heavy hitters on the roster, today’s session on Calcium Modulation and DCBs may have won @Dallas_PCI 2026! 😀👏🏼

74/M with hx of PCI developed chest pain 3 hours after a contrast-enhanced CT scan. What does the OCT show & what is the dx?

Just so everyone knows, despite an ongoing war and enormous geopolitical tensions, thousands of Iranian students continue to study in the United States.
So expelling Afghan MBBS students from Pakistan, especially those in 4th and final year who are just months away from completing their degrees, is deeply troubling.
Stop new admissions if policy demands it. But destroying the careers of students who have already invested years of their lives?
Students should not be made casualties of politics.

Delaying heart failure meds = preventable deaths
🔹 Beta-blocker: ↑34-35% all-cause mortality
🔹 ARNI: ↑~25% all-cause mortality
🔹 MRA: ↑24-35% all-cause mortality
🔹 SGLT2i: ↑13% mortality, ↑31% HF hospitalization
delaying GDMT → worse QoL, faster progression

Fractional flow reserve–guided PCI using zotarolimus drug-eluting stents provides significantly better long-term value than CABG for treatment of patients with multivessel CAD, with equivalent clinical outcomes at substantially lower cost sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

In selected patients undergoing high-risk PCI, completely percutaneous VA-ECMO with local anaesthesia was associated with high procedural success, acceptable access-site safety, and limited postprocedural ICU need.
These findings support the feasibility of a less invasive ECMO strategy.

Ultra-high-pressure balloon strategy in complex PCI: @KAlaswadMD shares how the OPN NC (35 atm) can tackle resistant calcium/underexpanded stents, with trial data (eg, VICTORY) supporting stent expansion comparable to IVL in selected cases.

Shock patients who are treated with a temporary mechanical circulatory support device in hospitals that aren't dedicated shock centers may be at higher risk of device-related adverse events, based on a new study. tctmd.com/news/shock-patient…
