Postpartum Cardiovascular Care; 'Low Risk' Chest Pain in the ER; Heart Failure Risk Detection & CV Outcomes with Implantable Devices
03/06/2026 | 9min
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at recent research found in ACC's new expert decision pathway for postpartum cardiovascular care. He then offers insights from the ACC Chest Pain - MI Registry examining 'low risk' chest pain and its evaluation in the emergency departments. Next, a discussion of how negative patient outcomes were associated with late pericardial effusion post-left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) device implantation. Finally, Dr. Eagle summarizes the ALLEVIATE-HF trial that explored heart failure (HF) risk detection with an insertable cardiac monitor paired with a centrally coordinated nurse-led diuretic intervention.

Maintaining Weight Loss with Tirzepatide; the new Dyslipidemia Guidelines; Sacubitril/Valsartan & HFpEF & Functional MR; Digitoxin & Heart Failure
27/05/2026 | 9min
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle examines recent research into maintaining weight loss with tirzepatide. He then offers insights into the new dyslipidemia guidelines, including addressing reproductive and hormone risk factors in cardiovascular risk assessment. Next, Dr. Eagle looks at the use of sacubitril/valsartan to improve exercise tolerance in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFpEF) and functional mitral regurgitation (MR). Finally, Dr. Eagle summarizes a new study on the use of digitoxin and digoxin in patients with heart failure.

HCM, NT-proBNP and HCM Risk Evaluation; Arrhythmic Burden in Cardiac Amyloidosis Obesity and Heart Failure; Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS)
20/05/2026 | 8min
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 | 9min
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 | 8min
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.
