Aortic endoleaks don't have to be a mystery! These occur when blood flows backward into the aneurysm sac, potentially through lumbar or inferior mesenteric arteries, or even the endograft's material. Identifying endoleaks is crucial as they can prompt aneurysm growth or rupture. Dive into our course to master spotting these subtle yet significant signs on ultrasound, safeguarding patient health.

Understanding Cirsoid Aneurysms Cirsoid aneurysms are rare arteriovenous malformations of the scalp, involving abnormal connections between the external carotid artery and scalp veins. They present as pulsatile masses and can cause pain, headaches, or bleeding. Prompt treatment is crucial, often involving endovascular procedures or surgical resection to alleviate symptoms and prevent complications. These aneurysms highlight the complexity of our vascular system and the importance of advanced diagnostic and treatment methods. #VascularHealth #CirsoidAneurysms #MedicalInnovation #Healthcare

Ahead of World Heart Day 2024, Dr Robert Smith, consultant interventional cardiologist at Royal Brompton and Harefield hospitals, discusses innovative minimally invasive procedures to repair tricuspid valve regurgitation. Tricuspid valve regurgitation occurs when the tricuspid valve leaks, causing symptoms such as breathlessness, fatigue, and swelling of the ankles and legs. It’s thought to affect up to 5% of the population aged over 75. "At our hospitals there are two new types of low-risk non-surgical intervention available. The first is transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) where a clip is used to reduce the leak. The second is transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR), a newer procedure where the valve is replaced and the leak is obliterated," Dr Smith explains.

If you are coming in for a cardiac stress test, there’s a lot to know! EKG stress tests will show how well your heart functions under pressure. On a treadmill or bike, you would be connected to an EKG while gradually gaining speed and incline/resistance. Results can show underlying coronary artery disease, arrhythmia, need for medications and more. A nurse practitioner from the U-M Health Frankel Cardiovascular Center shows you what to expect. #cardiology #HeartMonth #stresstest #EKG #GoBlue #stress #hearthealth #hearthealthy

Index case testing and presymptomatic testing are important aspects of cardiogenetic testing. Dr. Michael John Ackerman, cardiologist at the Mayo Clinic, breaks down the two categories and why they are necessary. Check out the full video here: https://lnkd.in/dvAe28M4
