Abstract Cardio-oncology is a rapidly growing field of cardiovascular (CV) medicine that has resulted from the continuously increasing clinical demand for specialized CV evaluation, prevention and management of patients suffering or surviving from malignant diseases.
Getty Images milla1cf Wed, 06/19/2024 - 20:54 June 19, 2024 — Modern therapies have extended the lives of many cancer patients; however, survivors often live with chronic health conditions, including cardiovascular disease. The new study was motivated by a need to fill that gap, Rao said. They found that exposure to PM2.5,
The findings – published this week in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology — could fuel advocacy for a paradigm shift in clinical heart health guidelines to address cardiovascular risk factors at an earlier age in childhood cancer survivors. “We Wendy Bottinor, MD.
This is the first case series to shed light on the application of cangrelor in cancer patients needing to pause dual antiplatelet therapy for a range of medical interventions, marking it as a pioneering effort in this domain.
Artificial intelligence is poised to transform cardio-oncology by enabling personalized care for patients with cancer, who are at a heightened risk of cardiovascular disease due to both the disease and its treatments.
The event is offered as an interdisciplinary and interspecialty course to provide clinicians and researchers with the tools needed to improve the cardiovascular (CV) health of cancer patients in everyday practice. Cardio-Oncology Educational Training: What Do I Need to Learn? How to Structure?:
The annual Global Cardio-Oncology Summit was held in September, bringing together healthcare professionals in the context of cardiovascular disease and cancer.
It is well understood that cancer therapies including chemotherapy, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and radiation can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with cancer. Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging, Ahead of Print.
Furthermore, it discusses how preclinical models have contributed to the provocative concept of heart failure being potentially tumorigenic and how the discovery of drugs with both anticancer and cardioprotective actions has revealed a common mechanistic basis for heart failure and cancer.
The Heart Failure Society of America has released a scientific statement outlining its insights on the link between heart failure and cancer, the two leading causes of mortality and morbidity in the U.S. The statement was published Oct. 15 in the Journal of Cardiac Failure.
Background Cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction due to trastuzumab has been well-known for many years, and echocardiographic surveillance is recommended every 3 months in patients undergoing trastuzumab treatment, irrespective of the baseline cardiotoxicity risk. Results Twelve (10.9%) patients had asymptomatic CTRCD.
The number of patients at the intersection of cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is increasing, reflecting ageing global populations, rising burden of shared cardiometabolic risk factors, and improved cancer survival. Many cancer treatments carry a risk of cardiotoxicity.
Cardio-oncology is a new field of interest in cardiology focusing on the detection and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, such as arrhythmias, myocarditis, and heart failure, as side-effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Here, we report a patient with new-onset AVRT/AVNRT and lung cancer who underwent chemotherapy.
Objective Adjuvant chemotherapy with trastuzumab improves the postoperative life expectancy of women with early-stage breast cancer. Women with breast cancer who underwent initial surgery were included. Although trastuzumab is reportedly cardiotoxic, quantification based on real-world evidence is lacking.
