Background The rapidly changing landscape of percutaneous coronary intervention provides a unique model for examining disparities over time. Previous studies have not examined socioeconomic inequalities in the current era drug eluting stents ( DES ). Methods and Results We analyzed 835 070 hospitalizations acute syndrome ACS ) from Healthcare Cost Utilization Project across all insurance types 2008 to 2011, whether quality care outcomes patients with differed by income (based on zip code...
Background Patients with a myocardial bridge ( MB ) and no significant obstructive coronary artery disease CAD may experience angina presumably from ischemia, but noninvasive assessment has been limited the underlying mechanism poorly understood. This study seeks to correlate novel exercise echocardiography EE finding for s invasive structural hemodynamic measurements. Methods Results Eighteen patients an pattern of focal end‐systolic early‐diastolic buckling in septum apical sparing were...
Background Female sex is an independent predictor of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Older data suggest undertreatment anticoagulation among women compared men. However, it unknown if novel therapies and updated guidelines have impacted differences AF treatment outcomes. Methods Results We performed a retrospective cohort study 2.3 million men new diagnosis CHA 2 DS ‐VASc ≥2 from Marketscan US commercial claims 2008 to 2015 determine whether remain undertreated this...
The optimal preoperative cardiac evaluation strategy for patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD) undergoing transplantation remains unknown. Patients are frequently referred catheterization, but the effects of coronary artery (CAD) on posttransplant mortality also We sought to determine contribution CAD and multivessel in particular mortality. performed a retrospective study ESLD catheterization before transplant surgery between August 1, 2004 2007 outcomes after transplantation. Among...
Despite the increase in number of female physicians across most specialties within cardiology, <10% clinical cardiac electrophysiology (EP) fellows are women. This study sought to determine factors that influence fellows-in-training (FITs) pursue EP as a career choice and whether this differs by gender. The authors conducted an online multiple-choice survey through American College Cardiology assess decision FITs United States Canada cardiovascular subspecialties. A total 933 (30.5%)...
