Renal denervation (RDN) reduces blood pressure (BP) in patients with uncontrolled hypertension the absence of antihypertensive medications.
Timely diagnosis and treatment for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) requires a coordinated response from multiple providers. Rapid intervention is key to reducing mortality morbidity. Activation of the cardiac catheterization laboratory may occur through verbal communication also involve secure sharing electrocardiographic images between frontline health care providers interventional cardiologists. To improve this response, we developed quick, easy-to-use, privacy-compliant...

The major limitation of modern primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) is distal embolisation thrombus and microvascular obstruction. Microvascular flow, as measured by myocardial blush grade (MPG), predicts mortality after PPCI. Despite initial enthusiasm, current evidence does not support routine use Intracoronary over intravenous glycoprotein 2b3a inhibitors during PPCI for ST elevation infarction (STEMI) to improve clinical outcomes. Manual thrombectomy (MT) improves MPG...
Introduction: We recently showed patients with CHD associated heterotaxy can exhibit respiratory ciliary dysfunction (CD) similar to that of primary dyskinesia (PCD) - a ciliopathy airway mucociliary clearance defects. Exome sequencing analysis revealed known PCD causing mutation and rare coding variants in genes were enriched CD, suggesting common etiology for motile cilia dysfunction. Further interrogation novel non-PCD have uncovered one patient homozygous the acetyltransferase NAT10 . In...
The effect of thrombus aspiration in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) may differ based on ischemic time. Patients short times have greater viable myocardium and so derive benefit from aspiration. We sought to determine the mortality presenting STEMI total time (duration symptom onset first medical device time) contact TOTAL trial was an international multicenter randomized 10,732 comparing routine plus percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) vs PCI alone undergoing...
