Wed, 30 Aug 2023 13:13:23 EDT //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/08/230830131323.htm Drug to target form of previously untreatable life-threatening 'bad cholesterol' //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/08/230828105543.htm New research details the first oral drug for the treatment of a type of high cholesterol -- called Lp(a) -- that is a potentially more dangerous version of the so called 'bad' cholesterol, LDL, because it is stickier and may be more likely to cause blockages and blood clots in your arteries. It is estimated that up to 20% of people worldwide have high levels of Lp(a), which is associated with a person's risk of experiencing a heart attack, strokes or other serious cardiac event. Importantly Lp(a) can be present even in younger adults and otherwise healthy people with no other known cardiovascular risks -- and often remains undetected until a cardiac event has occurred. Mon, 28 Aug 2023 10:55:43 EDT //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/08/230828105543.htm Atrial fibrillation and stroke risk //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/08/230828105528.htm Researchers have developed a new way of identifying patients at risk of an irregular heartbeat, known as 'atrial fibrillation'. While not life threatening, the condition increases people's risk of having a transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or stroke by up to five times. A new study reveals four specific factors that can predict which patients will have atrial fibrillation. These include older age, higher diastolic blood pressure and problems with both the coordination and function of the upper left chamber of the heart. The team went on to create an easy tool for doctors to use in practice to identify those at high risk. And they hope that this will help diagnose and treat more patients, reducing their risk of future strokes.

Mon, 07 Aug 2023 15:21:44 EDT //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/08/230807152144.htm A wake-up call for kids' poor heart health //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/08/230807121930.htm Today in the U.S., a child with risk factors for heart disease (high blood pressure, overweight, etc.) can wait close to a year to see a cardiologist because of high demand and limited resources. This is precious time that could be spent managing their conditions to help them avoid having a heart attack or stroke at a young age. A new study from Northwestern University and the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago provides the firstcomprehensive look at the practice of pediatric preventive cardiology in 30 years. It found a high incidence of youth with risk factors for cardiovascular disease but a significant lack of resources and personnel to provide the timely, preventive care they need. Mon, 07 Aug 2023 12:19:30 EDT //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/08/230807121930.htm 心脏康复降低死亡风险after heart surgery, still underutilized //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/07/230719112649.htm People who participate in cardiac rehabilitation have a decreased risk of death years after surgery, with a trend towards better outcomes in patients who attend more sessions, a study finds. Just over half of patients attended a single session of cardiac rehabilitation, and only 12% of those patients completed all 36 sessions. This occurred despite health systems referring patients to the program 94% of the time, suggesting referral alone is not sufficient to ensure participation. Wed, 19 Jul 2023 11:26:49 EDT //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/07/230719112649.htm Report highlights public health impact of serious harms from diagnostic error in US //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/07/230717180010.htm Improving diagnosis in health care is a moral, professional and public health imperative, according to the U.S. National Academy of Medicine. However, little is known about the full scope of harms related to medical misdiagnosis -- current estimates range widely. Using novel methods, a team sought to derive what is believed to be the first rigorous national estimate of permanent disability and death from diagnostic error. Mon, 17 Jul 2023 18:00:10 EDT //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/07/230717180010.htm Home blood pressure monitoring saves lives, cuts costs, and reduces healthcare disparities //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/07/230713142003.htm Expanding home blood pressure monitoring among US adults with hypertension could substantially reduce the burden of cardiovascular disease and save healthcare costs in the long term, according to a new study. The results of the study show that expanding home monitoring has the potential to address pervasive health disparities facing racial and ethnic minorities and rural residents because it would reduce cardiovascular events among US adults.
