  • Good!

    Great place for cardiology news. This podcast does feel, at times, “anti-innovation”, and the speaker does have a bias towards or against certain practices and treatments, but overall I appreciate the scepticism and really do applaud the hard work he puts in.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Using the Coronary Artery Calcium Score, Cardiac MRI to Guide Defibrillator Use, Diagnosis and Treatment of POTS, and more
Q: What did the CMR-guided ICD trial find about using MRI scar to guide ICD use?
The trial found no difference in the composite outcome of sudden cardiac death or significant ventricular arrhythmia between ICDs and loop recorders in patients with EF 36-50% and MRI-detected scar, suggesting MRI scar alone should not dictate ICD implantation in this group.
Using the Coronary Artery Calcium Score, Cardiac MRI to Guide Defibrillator Use, Diagnosis and Treatment of POTS, and more
Q: How does adding CAC scoring change risk assessment for ASCVD people at borderline risk?
CAC testing offers incremental, clinically meaningful stratification, particularly for those at borderline risk, by sharply increasing predicted event rates when CAC is high, which can influence preventive decisions such as statin therapy.
Cold and Room-Temperature Platelets in Cardiac Surgery, Arginine Therapy for Sickle Cell Disease Acute Pain Episodes, Medications for Alcohol Use Disorder, and more
Q: In patients with sickle cell pain crisis, does intravenous arginine help shorten the episode?
The START trial did not demonstrate a shorter crisis duration with arginine versus placebo, indicating the intervention may not be effective for this outcome, though further work and objective markers may be needed.
Cold and Room-Temperature Platelets in Cardiac Surgery, Arginine Therapy for Sickle Cell Disease Acute Pain Episodes, Medications for Alcohol Use Disorder, and more
Q: In cardiac surgery, does the temperature of platelet storage matter?
The discussion outlines a phase 3 trial showing cold-stored platelets are non-inferior to room-temperature platelets for controlling bleeding, with potential practical benefits like reduced waste and easier logistics, though some safety and workflow questions remain.
Trends in Patient Portal Messaging, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Chronic Pain, End-of-Life Care for People Who Are Incarcerated, and more
Q: Does the self-directed CBT-CP trial suggest a viable alternative to clinician-delivered therapy?
Yes, the self-directed CBT-CP with weekly remote coaching showed less pain interference and similar improvements in function and sleep at 4 and 12 months, supporting it as a first-line option in many settings.
