HCM, NT-proBNP and HCM Risk Evaluation; Arrhythmic Burden in Cardiac Amyloidosis Obesity and Heart Failure; Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS)
View Transcript
Episode Description
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).
