  • Moving the Needle: Clinical Strategies focusing on Controlling LDL-C

    Moving the Needle: Clinical Strategies focusing on Controlling LDL-C
    2025/06/23
    In this episode of CardiaCast, Drs. Erin Michos and Joseph Saseen discuss the underuse of lipid-lowering therapies in patients with cardiovascular risk, despite strong evidence and updated guidelines. They highlight the role of bempedoic acid as a non-statin option, especially for statin-intolerant patients. The conversation emphasizes team-based care, shared decision-making, and strategies to navigate insurance barriers to improve LDL-C management. This podcast is part of Bempedoic Acid: New Evidence Transforming the LDL-C Treatment Landscape grant initiative. Educational grant support is provided by Esperion.

  • SCAI 2025 Think Tank Session Highlights: Radiation Protection and Team Well-Being

    SCAI 2025 Think Tank Session Highlights: Radiation Protection and Team Well-Being
    2025/06/20
    In this episode Drs. Poonam Velagapudi, Saraschandra Vallabhajosyula, and James Hermiller explore the critical topic of occupational safety in the cath lab. While healthcare providers focus on treating patients, their work environment can put their own health at risk—particularly long-term impact of wearing heavy lead protection. Drawing from discussions at the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions (SCAI) 2025 Think Tank Sessions, the episode highlights data on lead-free and reduced-lead solutions aimed at preventing back pain and injury among cardiac catheterization operators.

  • Conversations in Heart Failure “Extrapolate with Caution: A STEMI Shock Reality Check”

    Conversations in Heart Failure “Extrapolate with Caution: A STEMI Shock Reality Check”
    2025/06/06
    In this episode, Drs. Jenna Skowronski, Francesco Castagna and Saraschandra Vallabhajosyula unpack how assumptions drawn from ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) data may be leading us astray in broader shock management—and what that means for patient outcomes, clinical decision-making, and future research. Why do we keep applying STEMI solutions to non-STEMI problems? Are we oversimplifying cardiogenic shock? And what does the real-world data actually tell us? Join us for a candid, fast-paced conversation that challenges dogma, calls for nuance, and might just change the way you approach shock. Related References: Møller JE, Engstrøm T, Jensen LO, et al.
