The Heart of The Matter: Technology In The Future of Cardiology
Sound, rhythm, rate, structure, function – countless features of the heart are measured to keep it healthy for as long as possible. Recently, an army of digital health technologies joined the forces of traditional preventive tools in cardiology to counter stroke, heart attack, heart failure or any other cardiovascular risks. In the future, minuscule sensors, digital twins, and artificial intelligence could strengthen their ranks. Let’s see what the future of cardiology might look like!

Cardiologists ’ Dream Device? – The Withings BPM Core and the Viatom Armfit+ Joint Review
1 in 4 men and 1 in 5 women have hypertension worldwide, the WHO estimates. As for the most common arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation (AFib), it affects some 33.5 million individuals globally; with its prevalence expected to double by 2030. These cardiovascular conditions need regular monitoring so as to prevent severe complications. For instance, hypertension can lead to heart and kidney failure, while AFib can lead to stroke.
For long, monitoring these conditions relied on measurements taken from bulky devices available only in medical facilities; a sphygmomanometer (or blood pressure monitor) for hypertension and an E...

Balloon aortic valvuloplasty – Cardiology Basics
Balloon aortic valvuloplasty – Cardiology Basics
Balloon aortic valvuloplasty is enlargement of a narrowed aortic valve using balloon catheters. It is also known as balloon aortic valvotomy.
Balloon aortic valvuloplasty has significant risks and lesser benefits compared other procedures for symptomatic severe aortic stenosis like surgical valve replacement and transcatheter aortic valve implantation or TAVI. Hence it is often considered as a bridge treatment or palliative treatment.
Three important scenarios in which balloon aortic valvuloplasty or BAV is considered are: Bridge to decision, bridge to planned treatmen...

DM / DNB Cardiology Entrance Mock Test 8
This study found that though it is often associated with coronary artery disease (CAD), it can also occur in those without significant CAD. It was not specifically associated with disease of right coronary artery disease.
This cardioinhibitory response may be a manifestation of the Bezold-Jarisch reflex. Bezold-Jarisch reflex inhibits sympathetic activity (sympathetic withdrawal) and increases parasympathetic activity, resulting in bradycardia, which may be associated with vasodilatation, nausea and hypotension. Bezold-Jarisch has been described in the setting of inferior wall infarction and coronary angiography. Origin...

Trials Of Niacin And Atrial Fibrillation Device Will Headline American College Of Cardiology Program
Two big trials will highlight this year’s American College of Cardiology meeting in March in San Francisco. First is the PREVAIL trial testing Boston Scientific‘s long-anticipated Watchman left atrial appendage closure device for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation. Second is the detailed presentation of the controversial failed HPS2-THRIVE trial of extended-release niacin and laropiprant. Read my complete story on Forbes, along with a list of the late-breakers.
