🧵How to use #yesCCT data to perform low contrast coronary angiogram 👇

📌Patient below w/ #CKD, unknown graft anatomy. Used prior CT data to perform cor angio + bypass graft angio with minimal dye🪡

🔥Key considerations 👇

1. #RadialFirst >> #SafeFemoral, but if doing femoral, can avoid femoral angio by using ultrasound pre, during & post sheath placement

2. Review CT. Look at native coronaries, including origin (e.g. anterior take off), any ostial disease etc

1. Exact cause unknown
2. Likely triggered by antigen exposure (e.g., mold, insecticides, silica dust)
3. Genetic predisposition plays a role🧬
4. Family history ⬆️ risk

🧵 1/8 🧵2/8 Few general points

🧿Make use of exaggerated respiration (have patient take slow deep breaths in & out)
🧿Avoid holding breath (can induce Valsalva & alter your measurements)
🧿Use a respirometer & multiple pressure transducers
🧿Multiple long recordings (be patient)
🧿Afib or ectopy: pace for regular rhythm
🧿Induction of PVC can be helpful 🙌
