  • Tools of the Trade for HCM: Update in Diagnosis and Management Strategies of a Common Cardiomyopathy

    Tools of the Trade for HCM: Update in Diagnosis and Management Strategies of a Common Cardiomyopathy
    2025/01/28
    Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is generally an inherited global heart disease in which only a fraction of those with the condition are clinically diagnosed. The recently published HCM guidelines include major changes focusing on medical therapy, increased emphasis exercise testing, management of sudden death risk, and screening for atrial fibrillation. In this interview, Drs. Matthew Martinez and Himabindu Vidula reinforce the importance of these updates for general cardiologists, which aid in identifying HCM patients early and establishing appropriate management plans.

  • SUMMIT Trial: Tirzepatide for Heart Failure, Preserved Ejection Fraction and Obesity

    SUMMIT Trial: Tirzepatide for Heart Failure, Preserved Ejection Fraction and Obesity
    2025/01/14

    he SUMMIT trial compared the safety and efficacy of tirzepatide among patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and obesity. Results from the trial concluded that treatment of obesity reduces major heart failure events in addition to improving health status and exercise tolerance.

    In this interview, Drs. Alison Bailey and Milton Packer examine the power of tirzepatide expanding beyond weight loss and treating diabetes in addition to reducing heart failure events in patients with obesity-related HFpEF.

  • Geographic Disparities in Access to Cardiologists in the United States

    Geographic Disparities in Access to Cardiologists in the United States
    2025/01/07
    Nearly one-half of US counties have no practicing cardiologists. These counties with limited access to cardiovascular care tend to be more rural and socioeconomically disadvantaged, with a greater burden of cardiovascular disease, highlighting deep geographic disparity in access to cardiovascular care in the US. In this interview, Drs. Bailey and Kim discuss “Geographic Disparities in Access to Cardiologists in the United States.” Related References: Cross SH, Mehra MR, Bhatt DL, et al.
