Researchers have developed a novel blood test that can diagnose a heart attack within minutes. COVID-19 infection may increase the risk of heart attack, stroke and all-cause mortality up to three years post-infection. BridgeBio Pharma announced this week outcomes from the ATTRibute-CM study will be shared at AHA 2024. Bridge Bio Pharma presented results from a post-hoc analysis which demonstrated the efficacy of acoramidis in ATTR-CM. The MATTERHORN trial demonstrates that, for patients with HF and FMR, M-TEER is non-inferior to surgical mitral valve repair. The RESHAPE-HF2 trial offers further insights into the transcatheter management of patients with HFrEF and FMR. The CardioNerds and colleagues from MedStar Health discuss an usual case of cobalt cardiomyopathy. An AI-enabled stethoscope can help physicians identify twice as many cases of heart failure compared to usual obstetric care. People that 'catch up' on their sleep during the weekends have a considerably lower risk of heart disease. The risk of early heart failure following heart transplantation is lower with so-called "heart-in-a-box" storage. Matthew W. Martinez, MD, talks about the new guideline, which recommends CAMZYOS for the treatment of oHCM. People are far more likely to be diagnosed with anxiety, depression, and suicidal behaviors in the first year following CVD. The current national method used to wait-list children for heart transplant fails to consistently rank the sickest patients. Monitoring heart rate and physical activity using a wearable device has clinical value. Researchers developed an at-home questionnaire test that quickly identifies people at high risk of heart attack. Gary Garcia-Molina details the connection between obstructive sleep apnea and CVD and explains how smart beds can help. Heart failure patients who are vaccinated against COVID-19 have a considerably greater likelihood of living longer. Patients with heart failure who practiced yoga demonstrated notably greater improvements in heart structure and function. Children with high blood pressure are more likely to develop serious heart conditions, including stroke and heart attack. According to a study, more patients with AFib are likely to experience heart failure rather than stroke or heart attack.
