Eagle's Eye View: Your Weekly CV Update From ACC.org

In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the DANISH trial extended follow-up, evaluating which patients benefit most from primary prevention implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation. He then explores the SURMOUNT-4 study on weight reversal post tirzepatide withdrawal. Finally, Dr. Eagle examines two JACC articles that cover disease monitoring: one tracking the progression of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and another assessing cardiovascular risks in patients receiving cancer therapy.     Subscribe to Eagle's Eye View  

In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the use of PREVENT equations to assess cardiovascular (CV) disease risk and the CREST-2 randomized trials that examined stenting versus endarterectomy for asymptomatic carotid disease. He then explores physician burnout and the use of coaching to help treat it.  Finally, Dr. Eagle explores how clearer, "front of package" food labeling in grocery stores can provide consumers with practical, science-based guidance to improve CV health.     Subscribe to Eagle's Eye View    

In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the potential for electrophysiology (EP) ablation in ambulatory care. He then explores several new studies that reveal the rising rates of heart failure and hypertension. Finally, Dr. Eagle discusses a very important new survey from ACC on the need to improve the professional climate and culture for US cardiologists and trainees.   Subscribe to Eagle's Eye View  

In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO).  He then explores lifestyle modifications to treat metabolic syndrome.  Finally, Dr. Eagle examines a recent study which found that beta-blockers failed to reduce death, myocardial infarction (MI) or heart failure (HF) in patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).   Subscribe to Eagle's Eye View  

In this week's View, Dr. Eagle highlights several important studies presented at the recent American Heart Association Scientific Sessions. The OCEAN Trial on antithrombotic and stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib). He then explores VESALIUS-CV, a study on evolocumab versus placebo in patients with atherosclerosis or diabetes and without previous myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke.  Finally, Dr. Eagle discusses the POLY-HF study on the use of a daily polypill that boosts heart function, improves quality of life, and cuts hospitalizations in underserved patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).  Subscribe to Eagle's Eye View
