The smallest heart pump in the world and first small bore MCS has arrived! Proud of the St John clinical research team for successfully performing the first in man. Congratulations to all the investigators and engineers that are advancing the science. Small bore and giant leap!

It's not covered in mainstream news because Maryam is Palestinian.
Ms Rachel on Instagram 3 year old Maryam saw her mom burn to death by Israel “Why isn't this covered in mainstream news? She keeps saying "| want my mom" & "My body hurts.”

If settlers believe God promised them this land, why do they burn and uproot its olive trees? Those who belong to the land take care of the land.

@DrAmirKaki in debate of the century MCS for HRPCI - chip bcis3 recruited amongst the highest risk population for PCI in the literature - not reflecting population in real world, many were transferred back to non- pci hospitals on same day. 17 of 21 centres were new users of impella, no procedure support planning, in hospital mortality highest reported in Literature, could this relate to premature withdrawal of support- half met shock criteria ?

This was HEARTBREAKING Dr. Tanya Haj-Hassan, who volunteered in Gaza, exposed Israel: "I held a lifeless child in my arms. There was no equipment to save him. This is not a war; it is a massacre of the innocent." nitter.gq/SpotGlobals/status/206…

Do contemporary sites with the capabilities of MCS escalation have better outcomes than pts included in NCSI (Impella capable hospitals using a CS protocol w/ or w/o escalation capabilities and dedicated CICUs) ? Data from CERAMICS presented at @SCAI!

Apple has removed Lebanese village names in Southern Lebanon. As Israel invades, they are already setting the state to justify occupation. I’ve never seen something like this.

Israel killed this little Palestinian girl in Gaza today. They shot her while she was sitting in class inside a tent in Beit Lahia. She was only 9 years old. No headlines. No outrage. No condemnation. Not a peep from the “international community.”

Israel killed Taleen and Yasmeen in Beirut, Lebanon. Not combatants. Not a threat. Two Lebanese students. No headlines. No outrage. No condemnations. No calls for sanctions.

Israel killed Nour today in Beirut, Lebanon. She was not a fighter. Not a threat. She was a Lebanese engineer — and Israel wiped her life away in an instant with bombs.

Justo hoy, Netanyahu lanza su ataque más duro contra el Líbano desde que empezó la ofensiva. Su desprecio por la vida y el derecho internacional es intolerable. Toca hablar claro: - Líbano debe formar parte del alto al fuego. - La comunidad internacional debe condenar esta nueva violación del derecho internacional. - La Unión Europea debe suspender su Acuerdo de Asociación con Israel. - Y no debe haber impunidad ante estos actos criminales.
