Impressive data. although the indication for p wire assessment according to all the data should ideally be in the range 30-90%. not just 40-70%?.
FFR use has slowly increased & was associated w/ significantly lower 1yr mortality, say authors of VA CART analysis: 17,989 patients at 66 sites @wfearonmd @JACCJournals

Agree this fascinating. haven’t ever done this for scad myself. Strategy is to leave alone if possible but get in there if ongoing ischaemia and/or reduced flow. This is definitely an option I would consider for image-proven intramural haematoma.

Agree. it is genuinely possible that one persons perception of an interaction was that it was sexist whilst the other just thought it was unsatisfactory without knowing why. or worse, not notice anything at all!? Increased awareness for everyone will be key.
@DrAsifQasim @BCIS_uk @TheBJCA @NickCurzen @CardiacJoshi @CaraCarahendry @ShrillaB @HasanShazia @DrDerekConnolly @mmamas1973 @nolanjimradial May be useful to educate people the ones who have unconsciously old fashioned ideas may be able to reflect and yes change, education through positive role modelling etc. rather than a pogron on alleged bullies which are represented in both sexes.

BCIS Focus Group on Stroke Thrombectomy to be chaired by Helen Routledge. Let’s see what we can do: if not us, then who?? @MillbrookMed @BCIS_uk.
Only 10 % of CVA pts require mechanical thrombectomy so effective triaging necessary. In Spain done via a CT scan in the ambulance ! In the Uk we have delays getting STEMI pts to hospital! In Barcelona for #ESCheartandstroke @ShrillaB @CaraCarahendry @NickCurzen @nolanjimradial.

BCIS Focus Group on Women in Interventional Cardiology. to be chaired by Cara Hendry & Shrilla Banerjee. Time for action!!.
Terrible data on sexism in U.K. cardiology @BCIS_uk from @TheBJCA 16% female trainees - tertiary centres worse - bullying also endemic. We need to act on this @NickCurzen @CardiacJoshi @CaraCarahendry @ShrillaB @HasanShazia @DrDerekConnolly @mmamas1973 @nolanjimradial #medshr.
