ACEI angioedema can hit at any time—skip the adrenaline, think Icatibant.
Takotsubo recovery can trigger DLVOTO; avoid adrenaline and always echo-monitor.
For LVOT gradients, know your jets: MR is rounded, LVOT is dagger-shaped.
IABP can help or hurt in shock—expert echo guidance is key! #Cardiology #MedicalScience #Echocardiography #Takotsubo #ACEi #Angioedema #ICu #MedEd #ClinicalCare #HeartHealth #MedMastodon #HealthTech

@amiserabilist @mike_johansen @hswapnil @Kidney_boy @jordy_bc What I like to point out to people is that lisinopril (my #acei date) has a long half life and is renally cleared. A sick date rule has to be implemented a week in advance lol

Note that the French acronym for CIRA is ACEI. 😉
