Increases in PULS Cardiac Test scores after mRNA vaccinations suggest a significantly higher risk of developing acute coronary syndrome, according to findings presented at AHA 2021.
Researchers conducted a direct comparison between unmasked 0/1-hour hs-cTnT protocol and standard practice masked 0/3-hour hs-cTnT protocol to determine late outcomes in suspected ACS.
A uniform unguided de-escalation strategy significantly reduced bleeding events after index percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute myocardial infarction (AMI), according to findings from an open-label, assessor-masked randomized trial published in The Lancet. In the current study, researchers enrolled patients in the Ticagrelor Versus Clopidogrel in Stabilized Patients With AMI (TALOS-AMI) trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02018055),…
Researchers assessed the value of a biomarker model in distinguishing subtypes of myocardial infarction and injury.
The 510(k) clearance allows for modification of the labeling of the previously authorized pharmacogenetics report.
The incidence of stress cardiomyopathy has increased during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The report suggests higher screening rates explains the positive trend.
There was a higher incidence of composite end point for women during 36 months after acute coronary syndrome.
The prognosis for women is now similar to men following an event of premature ACS, despite higher overall rates of rehospitalizations.
