Lost yet another colleague who decided they could no longer tolerate practicing in the current medical climate.

Stunning 😳
Median age of attrition from EM practice 45.6 for women and 59 for men
Approx 10 years after residency graduation for women 🤯
We need to fix our specialty to prevent this many women from leaving in their prime

2mm coronary stents should only be used for bailout purposes in limiting dissections. Nobody has refractory angina or prognostic ischemia from a 2mm vessel. #accfit #CardioTwitter

The fee for service/RVU system creates an unhealthy tension between getting paid for your work and doing what's right for the patient.

Has anyone trained a nurse practitioner to assist in the cath lab in a non academic setting? Trying to increase the skill set and job satisfaction of a trusted colleague... but trying to figure this out from a credentialing standpoint

You are a 48 yo cardiologist and have been experiencing typical (CCS 3) anginal symptoms. CTA shows 90% mid LAD, no calcium, no bifurcation disease.
Your doc gives you two options, which do you choose ?

Is anyone attempting catheter based debulking of aggressive left sided IE with embolic protection in pts not candidates for early intervention? We have had a couple of recent bad outcomes in young patients who were not early surgical candidates…

The cdc announced yesterday that stenting is appropriate primary treatment for CFA disease. Much debate about the utility of a 5 day duplex to confirm long term patency,@kmadass @farkomd @IR_Doctor @jmills1955 @HadyLichaaMD
