NT-proBNP May Hold the Key to Predicting Cardiac Risk Before Noncardiac Surgery
A simple blood test would be easier, cheaper, and more accurate than noninvasive testing, the authors argue.

The results increase “my confidence that this approach has merit,” Lauren Sansing says. More trials are on the way.
The recently approved device simplifies operator manipulations by loading a balloon and filter onto the stent.
Not everyone agrees: one expert says it would be more helpful to consider imaging as a quality measure at the local level.
Fractures and breakages of the helix on the Rotarex system has led to 30 serious injuries, four deaths, and 115 interventions.
TCTMD spoke with Batchelor about how executive orders on DEI and federal funding are impacting the research ecosystem.
More than 50% survived to discharge, which investigators attribute to high rates of bystander-initiated CPR and AED use.
Overall complication rates were similar to those seen with transfemoral access, however, and patients liked it better.

The findings are disappointing, but questions around intervention timing, patient population, and others remain to be explored.
