Using AI fusion tools to crack the code on making lesion localization intuitive. Fellows:Ali Ebrahimi Madhura (Maddie) Myla, MD, FACC 'how do we know where to wire the PVL?' Answer: 'Here you go, wire the red dot where the leak is'

Complex simplification of structural heart with Echo fusion and AI. Within a few years will be Holo lens and 4D with depth perception. Here's a recent example from my lab where the workflow is routine, this is part of what we see on screen during the procedure. #UABStructural

Welcomed the new year at Ascension St. Vincent's with a ECMO Thrombectomy case of a massive PE presenting peri-arrest, lactic 10, maxed out on all pressors. Had to act immediately. Alongside Hassan Alkhawam efficient procedure and incredibly discharged on POD4. Great skills learned with the…

Nice teaching TAVR. Degenerated 23mm CE valve. Predominant AI. Should be an easy case?! Very difficult to cross with valve even after upgrade to Lunderquist. Attempts to deploy valve resulted in exaggerated LV displacement despite pulling valve and pushing wire.

Great lessons from Mustafa Ahmed as he gives a great lecture on functional testing for INOCA. UAB Cardiovascular Disease UAB Cardiovascular Institute UAB Heersink School of Medicine

Mitraclip Tweetorial Pt.2.

Optimizing a perpendicular grasp. Getting off the aorta. I use this advanced steering technique in most Mitraclip cases. A perpendicular grasp allows for even bileaflet insertion without tension and clip canting on release.🧵 1/6 #UABStructural

Basic Mitraclip Steering Tweetorial. Device View. (1/6) for fellows and whoever!

Let's Start with M Knob. After the clip is advanced in to the LA, this is the typical maneuver to steer down to the valve. #UABStructural

Mustafa Ahmed teases out the lifetime decision making processes for pts with #structuralheart dz -it takes a #heartteam approach! One size doesn’t fit all-patients don’t always fit in neat categories. UAB Cardiovascular Disease

An unusual case of a 23 yo patient (non complaint) with severe TR from MVC (due to pap muscle rupture). Repair with neocords x 2, commissuroplasty x 2, band annuloplasty. No TR at the end, Gm-2mm Hg.

I'm always interested at the unique nature of how PE presents. In this case hypoxemia with large oxygen requirement was predominant and persistent despite initial AC therapy. This resolved almost immediately on Thrombus aspiration Mustafa Ahmed Phillip Smith Baran Aksut
