GE HealthCare and Medis Medical Imaging Announce Collaboration Focused on Non-Invasive Coronary Assessments to Help Advance Precision Care in Treatment of Coronary Artery Disease

DAIC

Within the complex umbrella of cardiovascular disease, CAD is a type of heart disease that develops when the coronary arteries narrow and the heart cannot deliver enough oxygen-rich blood to the heart. In the assessment of coronary artery disease, QFR represents a significant advancement in how efficiently it can provide critical insights.

Tissue characterisation and primary percutaneous coronary intervention guidance using intravascular ultrasound: rationale and design of the SPECTRUM study

Open Heart

Introduction Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) improves clinical outcome in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) but dedicated prospective studies assessing the safety and efficacy of IVUS guidance during primary PCI are lacking. Other endpoints include clinical and procedural outcomes along with post-PCI IVUS findings.

Cardiac dysfunction in survivors of sepsis: a scoping review

Open Heart

Studies examining cardiovascular outcomes or symptoms following an episode of sepsis in adults were included. Only 39% (11/28) of articles reported objective measures of cardiovascular function and only one article related cardiovascular function to functional impairment via patient-reported outcome measures.
