Today’s video is on the subject of stroke and in particular cryptogenic strokes. It is therefore crucial to identify the cause of stroke and treat the underlying cause wherever possible. Strokes are characterised by death of brain cells as a result of disruption of blood supply to those cells.

A new joint guideline from the American Heart Association (AHA), the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and nine other medical societies reports early diagnosis and treatment of peripheral artery disease is essential to improve outcomes and reduce amputation risk, heart attack, stroke and death for people with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD).

Hypertension Hypertension, or high blood pressure , is often referred to as the “silent killer” because it typically shows no symptoms until it leads to more severe health issues. Regular blood pressure checks and lifestyle modifications, such as a heart-healthy diet and exercise, are essential for managing this risk.

February 2024 FDA Approvals: Innovations in Cardiovascular Interventions XACT Carotid Stent System (Approved: 02/07/2024) This approval expands the indications to be used during a Transcarotid Artery Revascularization (TCAR) procedure to prevent future strokes. The label includes a “black box” warning for CV risk due to blood clots.

Researchers found no significant difference between groups in terms of a composite of death, disabling stroke or rehospitalization for heart failure—which occurred in 9.4% of patients who received the Evolut valve and 10.6% of those receiving the SAPIEN valve. This composite valve function endpoint occurred in 9.4%

Three coronary arteries supply blood to the heart. When one of these arteries becomes completely blocked by a blood clot, it results in a heart attack, also known as MI (Myocardial infarction). Medical and Surgical Treatment in a Heart Attack An MI occurs when a blood clot entirely obstructs a blood artery in the heart.

In a cohort of >3,000 people from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), sleeping <6 hours each night predicted a higher prevalence of stroke, heart attack, and chronic heart failure. There is a considerable temporal variation in blood pressure, blood clotting, and endothelial function.

Previous research indicates the rate ofischemic(clot-caused) stroke among adults 18-49 years old is increasing and propelled by a corresponding rise incryptogenicstrokes (strokes of unknown cause) in adults without traditional risk factors, including high blood pressure, smoking, obesity, high cholesterol andType 2 diabetes.
