    First-in-human TELLTALE-BASILICA @StFrancis_LI! TELLTALE is the first and only dedicated system for transcatheter electrosurgical leaflet modification. Life is so much easier with dedicated devices - BASILICA took only a few minutes and the patient did great! Details at #crt2023

    Patients are avoiding hospital and sitting on their heart attacks. I think this accounts for the late complications we are all seeing.

    Have a patient dying from acute #aorticregurgitation ? TABERNACL might help. Connecting a valvuloplasty balloon to a IABP console can function as a counter-pulsation valve. Contact authors for help or report your experience ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI… @CircIntv @TheBethesdaLabs

    Just got my assignments for #CRT2022. Step-by-step BASILICA, LAMPOON, a new coronary obstruction prediction algorithm and HOCM SESAME! This is going to be fun.

    LAMPOON enabled #TMVR despite the risk for #LVOT obstruction. There were no long-term complications assoc w/ LAMPOON. The selection of inoperable pts limited assessment of long-term survival following TMVR bit.ly/4h6fH4H #JACCINT @TheBethesdaLabs @CathElectroSurg

    My colleagues @OKhaliqueMD @djc795 tease out the fine points in my new CT-based TAVR-induced coronary obstruction prediction model in this week’s journal club. Bottom line - stop using coronary height and sinus width in isolation. Use cusp height:coronary height and VTC&Ca vol.
