Eagle's Eye View: Your Weekly CV Update From ACC.org

In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at data from the STS/ACC TVT Registry on off-label transcatheter valve interventions that demonstrate reduced residual tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and improved quality of life. He then explores the REVNOVATE-COMPLEX-PCI study that investigates the benefits of intravascular imaging guidance for five years. Finally, Dr. Eagle summarizes the ACC/AHA's newly released clinical guidelines for managing dyslipidemia.

In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the differential effect of bisoprolol versus verapamil in nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) treatment. He then explores lower heart failure (HF) hospitalization risk in patients with type 2 diabetes, comparing GLP-1RAs to DPP-4 inhibitors and similar outcomes with SGLT-2 inhibitors. Dr. Eagle then examines the use of shared decision-making and decision aids in percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO).  Finally, the iModern trial, which compares immediate percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) guided by instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) and deferred PCI guided by cardiac stress magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with STEMI and multivessel disease, is discussed.

In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at increased one-year mortality in younger patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). He then explores the PREDIMED trial which found that adherence to the Mediterranean diet plus moderate wine intake was associated with reduced cardiovascular risk and mortality. Finally, Dr. Eagle examines 20-year outcomes for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in patients with drug-refractory paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AFib).

In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at findings from the Evolut Low Risk trial in which self-expanding transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) versus surgery at six years in low-risk patients with aortic stenosis (AS) is considered. He then explores the TUXEDO-2 Trial evaluating ticagrelor versus prasugrel in percutaneous coronary intervention patients with diabetes and multivessel coronary disease (MVD). Finally, Dr. Eagle examines the first-ever release of the AHA/ACC guideline for treatment and management of acute pulmonary embolism (PE) in adults.

In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the ORBITA-2 trial and how percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may lead to greater symptom relief in older adults. He then explores the EQUAL trial that investigated how Apple smartwatch monitoring improves atrial fibrillation (AFib) detection. Finally, Dr. Eagle examines revelations from the EMPEROR-Preserved trial regarding interaction between SGLT2 inhibitors and baseline magnesium levels in treating patients who have either heart failure (HF) or HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
