So what, exactly, occurs inside the human heart during a myocardial infarction?

A cardiologist at the University of Chicago Medicine has performed the first cardioneural ablation in U.S. history, using it to “rewire” the heart of a patient suffering from vasovagal syncope.

The FDA has provided new information about the metformin recall first announced in May. 

Cardiology has seen its revenue and utilization take significant hits as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

An inquest into the death of a 24-year-old scaffolder has found that the patient was “failed” by his healthcare providers.

The COVID-19 pandemic hit rural hospitals especially hard—and that’s bad news for patients in areas already associated with poor cardiovascular outcomes.

Reported in 2018 by anesthesiologists at the University of Florida College of Medicine in Gainesville, the case suggested a message to TAVR operators: “Vigilance and a high degree of suspicion” are critical for avoiding the potentially severe hemodynamic consequences of HCM associated with aortic stenosis, the authors asserted (J Med Case Rep 2018;18;12[1]:372).

Until recently, cardiologists’ eyes tended to glaze over at the mention of using 3D printing in their practices. Most believed the costs would be too high for routine use, that the applications and the price tag were better suited to academic applications.
