Did you know humpback whale heart rates drop as low as 2-5 bpm druing deep dives? And that their QRS duration is about 180-200 ms? #ESCCongress not only educated us on the latest guidelines and research - exciting extravaganzas taught us so much more! #SaveTheWhales @pacificwhalewatchassociation.com

Our @fau.de study on NSTEMI symptoms at #DGK2025JT 👉 1/5 present w/o chest discomfort, esp. women, pts w/ diabetes, no FHx of CAD, anemia & AFib 👉 pts w/o chest discomfort experience worse in-hospital outcomes, partially mediated by delayed invasive management 🔗 doi.org/10.1007/s00392-025-02628-1

Absence of chest discomfort in type 1 NSTEMI patients: predictors and impact on outcome - Clinical Research in Cardiology

Background The absence of chest discomfort has been hypothesized to delay treatment and consequently result in worse outcomes in patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Methods ...

Our study on disparities in NSTEMI symptoms at #ESCCongress2024 👉 women, elderly, diabetics and non-smokers more likely to present w/o chest discomfort ➡️ more vulnerable for delayed diagnosis & treatment @UniFAU @GaedeLuise @monique_trobs @M_Marwan_ @Steph_Achenbach

Implications of #echofirst RWMA in NSTEMI at #DGK2024JT 👉 If present, RWMA match culprit lesion territory in ~75% 👉 RWMA associated with worse clinical manifestation and more in-hospital complications @UniFAU @M_Marwan_ @monique_trobs @GaedeLuise @Steph_Achenbach

Preliminary results of HEARTBEAT-Pilot trial at #DGK2024JT 👉 smartphone microphones noninferior to digital stethoscopes for detection of severe AS 👉 potential screening tool for asymptomatic severe AS in the future

The 35th #TCT2023 conference in San Francisco 🌉 has ended. It has been a great and informative conference! @crfheart @TCTConference

Will DCB be the future treatment for ACS? More trials needed, but according to DCB-ACS presented at #TCT2023 physiological results after 9 months seem similar. Read more at https://tinyurl.com/ym43e7bt (in German). @GaedeLuise @UniFAU @Herzmedizin_de @DGK_org @crfheart @TCTConference
