HCM, NT-proBNP and HCM Risk Evaluation; Arrhythmic Burden in Cardiac Amyloidosis Obesity and Heart Failure; Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS)
20/05/2026 | 8 min
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle reviews evidence supporting the use of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and NT-proBNP in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) risk assessment. He then examines the EXCALIBUR study, which aims to better characterize arrhythmic burden in patients with cardiac amyloidosis. Next, he discusses research identifying obesity as a significant risk factor for heart failure, highlighting key findings and clinical implications. Finally, he summarizes new evidence on the use of ivabradine and propranolol in treating postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS).

Rhythm Control & Tricuspid Valve Regurgitation; Benefits of Blood Pressure Control on Cardiovascular Disease; Switching DOAC Therapy in AFIB Patients with Stroke; Pulsed Field Ablation & Persistent AFib
13/05/2026 | 9 min
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle examines the role of rhythm control in improving moderate-to-severe and severe secondary tricuspid valve regurgitation. He then explores evidence showing that blood pressure reduction can deliver comparable cardiovascular benefits for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Another study reviewed in this episode assesses the outcomes of continuing versus switching direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who experience breakthrough stroke. Finally, Dr. Eagle summarizes the AVANTE-GUARD trial, which evaluates pulsed field ablation as a first-line treatment for patients with persistent AFib.

Pulsed Field Ablation and PAS; TRIDENT & Antihypertensive Polypharmacy; NOBLE and PCI vs. CABG
06/05/2026 | 8 min
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the NOBLE trial evaluating whether percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is best for patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease (CAD). He then explores a report highlighting nanosecond pulsed field ablation (nsPFA) and its safety and efficacy at one year for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Finally, Dr. Eagle presents a summary of the TRIDENT trial, which compares a triple‑pill antihypertensive strategy with conventional therapy and finds a positive impact on hypertension management and stroke risk following intracerebral hemorrhage.

Benefits of Endovascular Therapy for Post-Thrombotic Syndrome; Sex Hormones & CV Risk; Asundexian & Stroke Risk; Cardiorespiratory Fitness & Longer Lifespans
29/04/2026 | 9 min
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at endovascular therapy for post-thrombotic syndrome and how it reduces severity and improves quality of life. He then explores current evidence and strategies to address sex hormone-associated thrombotic and cardiovascular risk. Next, Dr. Eagle examines the OCEANIC-STROKE trial which studied asundexian and its potential to lower recurrent stroke risk in patients with noncardioembolic stroke or transient ischemic attack. Finally, Dr. Eagle asks the question, is high cardiorespiratory fitness associated with longer lifespan and lower multimorbidity?

Early Surgery for AS; Blood Pressure Trajectories; PCI vs Medical Therapy for Chronic Coronary Disease
22/04/2026 | 7 min
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle examines early surgery for asymptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis. He then reviews evidence linking blood pressure trajectories and rapid control to significantly improved outcomes. Finally, he compares percutaneous coronary intervention with medical therapy for chronic total occlusion in patients with chronic coronary disease.
