Eagle’s Eye View: Can BP Control Trajectories Lead to Better CV Outcomes?
In this week’s Eagle's Eye View, Dr. Eagle examines early surgery for asymptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis. He then reviews evidence linking blood pressure trajectories and rapid control to significantly improved outcomes. Finally, he compares percutaneous coronary intervention with medical therapy for chronic total occlusion in patients with chronic coronary disease.
