.
In 1953, Swedish cardiologist Inge Edler and physicist Carl Hellmuth Hertz recorded the first echocardiogram — the first ultrasound‑based moving recording of the heart — using an industrial ultrasonic reflectoscope, marking the birth of clinical echocardiography.

Decade of Cardiology (1895–1905)

Big inventions

●1895 – X-rays: Roentgen → First non-invasive visualization of the heart.He got Noble Prize in Physics
●1896–1905 – Blood Pressure: Riva-Rocci & Korotkoff → Accurate BP measurement
●1903 – ECG: Willem Einthoven → Recording of cardiac electrical activity.He got noble prize in physiology

Significance:
This decade transformed cardiology into a measurement-based science, marking the birth of modern cardiology.

Harvey (1578–1657), in De Motu Cordis (1628), proved that the heart pumps blood in a continuous loop, overturning centuries of Galen’s ideas. The birth of modern cardiovascular science!

Must read this synopsis of article & think of it to include in our practice

Prophylactic Adenosine in SVG Interventions...
Step 1 ..See Global data
Slow Flow/No flow ..29% in ACS setting & 15 % in Stable settings of SVG intervention

Step 2..Only recommended prophylactic measure is use of EPD ,but know it is costly ,not available every where,need skills

Step 3..Our poulation
N=171 (142 ACS ,29 Stable setting)
we used liberous dose of adenosine(200-400ug ) as bolus just 30 seconds before balloon /stent inflation
Step 4..See results,

Slow flow ...4.8%
No reflow 1.2
Only in pts with base line TIMI flow 3 % ,& 0% in baseline TIMI flow >3%.

2ndly it proved very safe to give no significant brady or hypotention

:
If DAPT is, required during pregnancy due to PCI ,then Clopidogral is Class I to give in addition to aspirin for standard duration.

•Mechanism: Reversible COX-1 inhibitor leading to decrease thromboxane A2 & inhibits platelet aggregation
•Dose: 100 mg twice daily
•Use: Alternative to aspirin in DAPT after drug-eluting stent, esp. in high bleeding risk or aspirin intolerance or Allergy
•Trial: OPTION Trial – non-inferior to aspirin + clopidogrel, with lower bleeding risk
