Delays in diagnosis and treatment for patients with suspected heart failure (HF) in the community can lead to preventable hospitalisations and deaths. A new modelling study by Dr Kieran Docherty and colleagues suggests that early initiation of disease-modifying therapies in select patients at the time of an elevated natriuretic peptide test could significantly reduce these adverse outcomes… View more

A post hoc analysis of the PROMISE trial has found that quantitative coronary plaque measures derived from coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) can independently predict major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in symptomatic patients without a known history of coronary artery disease (CAD).¹ The findings suggest that total plaque burden and noncalcified plaque burden may enhance… View more

An exploratory analysis of the EARLY TAVR trial has found that the benefits of early transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for asymptomatic severe aortic stenosis (AS) are consistent, regardless of baseline left ventricular (LV) health.¹ This suggests that waiting for LV deterioration may not be the optimal strategy for timing intervention.MethodologyThis analysis used data from the EARLY… View more
