Ex-Excela Health cardiologist testifies in malpractice suit – Tribune-Review
Posted: Published on March 17th, 2017
The cardiologist accused of performing unnecessary procedures at Excela Health told a Westmoreland County jury on Wednesday he did nothing wrong and didn't even know about the allegations until just before he resigned in early 2011. Dr. Ehab Morcos testified in his own defense during the eighth day of trial for a malpractice lawsuit filed against him, his former cardiology practice and Excela by a North Huntingdon truck driver who claims he received unneeded stents from Morcos during multiple procedures in late 2008. All are appropriate, all were done for a reason, Morcos testified. Steven Sensenich, 57, contends he received seven stents, mesh tubes implanted in cardiac arteries to improve blood flow, and that five of those devices were not needed. His lawsuit is the first trial of 71 cases pending against Morcos, Westmoreland Cardiology (where he worked as a doctor) and Excela Health (where the procedures were conducted). Sensenich has maintained that Excela allowed Morcos and another doctor at his practice to routinely implant unneeded stents. Morcos vehemently denied those allegations from the witness stand Wednesday while showing jurors videos of the three procedures he performed on Sensenich. Morcos said each stent was implanted to correct arterial blockages that … Continue reading

Beebe cardiology offers fully dissolving heart stent – CapeGazette.com
Posted: Published on March 17th, 2017
The interventional cardiology team at Beebe Healthcare recently became the first on the Delmarva Peninsula to offer patients with coronary artery disease a new treatment option that literally disappears over time. Dr. Ehtasham Qureshi, a board-certified interventional cardiologist, recently performed the first implants at Beebe. The Absorb bioresorbable vascular scaffold is the world's first FDA-approved dissolving stent, signaling a major advance in the treatment of coronary artery disease, which affects 15 million people in the United States and remains a leading cause of death worldwide despite decades of therapeutic advances. While stents are traditionally made of metal, Abbott's Absorb stent is made of a naturally dissolving material, similar to dissolving sutures. Absorb starts to dissolve after implantation in a blocked artery and disappears completely in about three years, after it has done its job of keeping a clogged artery open and promoting healing of the treated artery segment. By contrast, metal stents are permanent implants. "The Absorb bioresorbable scaffold represents a breakthrough in the way we treat blocked arteries," said Qureshi, who completed the procedure via a novel wrist approach. "Patients now have the advantage of stent placement to promote healing, and, at the same time, there will be no … Continue reading

Career Advice From an Outgoing Advanced Interventional Cardiology Fellow – TCTMD
Posted: Published on March 17th, 2017
Its easy to look back and think of all the should-haves, would-haves, and could-haves that might have changed the trajectory of your career. But we all know this isnt healthy behavior. Glancing forward to the next few monthsthe last in a seemingly endless period of my trainingIve been thinking about how I would absolutely not be where I am today without guidance from numerous different mentors and colleagues along the way. As I move forward, here is the short version of what Id want to pass onto medical students and residents interested in a career in cardiology. 1. Its a marathon, not a sprint Although I was told by many over the course of my training to slow down and focus on bigger-picture outcomes, this necessity only seeps in when you are actually living through your years in residency and fellowship. So stay focused and make sure you have a very strong support system of family and friends to get you through. For me, this is my wife, parents, and brother. It is also crucial to work on your emotional intelligence, as there will be days when you will feel like giving up, and what will keep you on the … Continue reading

Cardiology hub – Fiji Times Online – Fiji Times
Posted: Published on March 13th, 2017
A SURGEON who has been performing free surgeries in the country for the past 10 years, says Fiji has the potential to be the main cardiology centre in the Pacific. Cardiologist Dr Albert Ko is from Ascot Hospital in Auckland and performed Fiji's first angioplasty at the Colonial War Memorial Hospital (CWMH) on April 6, 2011. "Since the first angioplasty about six to seven years ago, there hasn't been much development in terms of equipment," he said. "However, the local staff are very good people who have been trained by us. "They are just as good as those in Australia and New Zealand, but these people need a career pathway, they need to know where they're headed towards in terms of salaries, training prospects, upskilling themselves and acquiring the best interest in their jobs." Dr Ko said Fiji had the capability to provide services on a level comparable to Australia and New Zealand, so patients from Pacific Island countries would pay a lower cost to receive treatment in our country. He said he performed a total of 40 surgical procedures with the local medical team at CWM Hospital in one week, showing Fiji had the capability and potential to make … Continue reading
