📉 Defibrillation testing during S-ICD implant: tradition or necessity? In 4,900+ patients, skipping it didn’t raise mortality or shock failure. #JACC #epICD

This #JACCBTS article describes safety & efficacy of a novel Cryo-RDN catheter system for renal denervation in pigs. This technology may offer a promising alternative to heat-based #RenalDenervation. #CryoEnergy #Hypertension #DrugResistantHypertension

📉 In failed #TAVR valves, echo & invasive gradients align. But after TAV-in-TAV? .🧪 Invasive gradients are consistently lower than both post-procedure & discharge echo gradients.➡️ Are we overestimating gradients with echo?. 📎 #JACCAsia #cvEcho

🏃🥗 Lifestyle matters—but not enough. In PRAGUE-25, #AFib freedom was 2x higher with ablation vs LFM+AADs. The heart wants what the EP lab offers. #JACC #epAblation #Obesity

Lipid management remains key in preventing #ASCVD. While statins are foundational, nonstatin therapies are expanding fast. This expert panel reviews current international recommendations regarding lipid management. #cvLipids #JACCAdvances

🆕 in #JACCINT: The #CAvEAT study finds coronary access (CA) after #TAVR is best with short-frame SAPIEN 3/Ultra (89%). Tall-frame valves like #Evolut Pro/Pro+ had lower success (45%). Valve choice matters for future CA! 📊

31M presented to ED w/ severe, heavy chest pain & concerns for ACS. Substernal chest pain had begun 1hr prior, & initial #ECG revealed STE in inferior leads I, II, & aVF, w/ reciprocal ST-segment depression in anterior leads V1 & V2 #JACCCaseReports

84F with persistent hypoxemia, no PH, found to have R➡️L shunt. CTA showed severe aortic tortuosity compressing RA. 4D flow #MRI confirmed shunt (Qp/Qs 0.61), matching invasive data. #JACCCaseReports #Hypertension #cvImaging

Bipoles w/ 2mm interelectrode distance most effectively match endocardial scar tissue & attenuate NF potentials. These benefits plateau at 2mm, suggesting it may represent optimal distance for delineating postinfarction substrates. Learn more in #JACCCEP:

⏱️ The countdown begins. A #JACC transformation, shaped by science, driven by purpose, and wrapped in something entirely new. In one week, we will reveal a transformation a year in the making. 🔎

Low muscle mass is most strongly assoc w/ mortality. Although neither higher fat mass nor abdominal adiposity showed sig associations, muscle mass remains a more robust predictor across subgroups & through more reliable methods #HeartFailure #JACCHF
