Ischemic Preconditioning & Noncardiac Surgery; The Microaxial Flow Pump in STEMI-CS; DOACs After Strokes
In this week’s View, Dr. Eagle looks at whether ischemic preconditioning provides benefit in noncardiac surgery. He then discusses the benefits of the microaxial flow pump in STEMI-cardiogenic shock (CS) patients undergoing hemodynamic monitoring. Finally, Dr. Eagle explores starting direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) early after stroke, and whether it lowers the risk of future strokes and hemorrhage. Subscribe to Eagle’s Eye View

Frailty Status and Mortality Risk in PCI; Delays in Treatment in STEMI; Arterial Events with Genetic-based Vascular Disease
In this week’s View, Dr. Eagle looks at frailty status and increased risk of mortality in patients who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). He then discusses the timely treatment and delays in treatment of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) that are associated with worse outcomes. Finally, Dr. Eagle explores new insights on arterial events associated with heritable thoracic aortic disease and the relative risk in patients with pathogenic variants, as well as the prevalence, characteristics, and clinical outcomes of arterial aneurysms in Loeys-Dietz Syndrome.

Marijuana Use & Endothelial Function; CV & Bleeding With Aspirin v. Clopidogrel; Mental Health for Survivors of SCA and ICD Shock
In this week’s View, Dr. Eagle looks at chronic marijuana smoking and THC-edible use and its impairment of endothelial function. He then discusses the cardiovascular (CV) and bleeding effects of aspirin versus clopidogrel in patients with acute coronary syndromes. Finally, Dr. Eagle explores the importance of addressing mental health symptoms in survivors of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) who experience shocks from an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD).

Carvedilol To Treat HFimpEF; Modifiable Lifestyle Factors & Cardiac Conduction Disease; Amiloride vs. Spironolactone for Resistant Hypertension
In this week’s View, Dr. Eagle looks at the CATHEDRAL-HF Trial and its study of carvedilol’s effectiveness as a monotherapy in heart failure with improved ejection fraction (HFimpEF). He then discusses the use of modifiable lifestyle factors to lower the risk of cardiac conduction disease. Finally, Dr. Eagle explores the use of amiloride versus spironolactone for the treatment of resistant hypertension. Subscribe to Eagle’s Eye View
