He then offers insights from the ACC Chest Pain - MI Registry examining ‘low risk’ chest pain and its evaluation in the emergency departments. 1780493220000 Articles and Stories /Latest-in-Cardiology/Articles/2026/06/01/01/Cover-Story-Tricuspid-Valve-Intervention For decades, cardiologists have referred to the tricuspid valve as "the forgotten valve." One reason for this neglect is that tricuspid regurgitation (TR) often goes unnoticed, explains Robert O. Bonow, MD, MACC, Distinguished Professor at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, IL. 1780316340000 Articles and Stories /Latest-in-Cardiology/Journal-Scans/2026/05/26/10/02/Rise-in-Deferral In the evaluation of patients with low-risk chest pain, there has been a rise in the deferral of further testing, with lower rates of functional testing and invasive coronary angiography (ICA), and significant variation at the site level in the proportion of patients who underwent further noninvasive testing... 1779801480000 Articles and Stories /Latest-in-Cardiology/Articles/2026/04/24/16/43/Explore-NCDR-Science-Presented-at-HRS-2026 Several abstracts being presented at HRS 2026 in Chicago are using NCDR data. The research explores trends and outcomes related to irrigated radiofrequency catheters for accessory pathway ablation in pediatric patients, ICD procedures in patients with ventricular assist devices, and intracardiac echocardiography... 1777050060000 Articles and Stories /Latest-in-Cardiology/Articles/2026/03/25/21/27/mon-1045am-combo-acc-2026 When compared with angiography-guided PCI, IVUS-guided PCI was found to be not superior in patients with complex coronary arteries according to results from the IVUS-CHIP trial or in patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease (LM-CAD) according to results from the OPTIMAL trial. Both trials were presented in a Late-Breaking Clinical Trial session at ACC.26 in New Orleans. 1774885860000 Articles and Stories /Latest-in-Cardiology/Articles/2026/03/25/21/27/mon-1045am-dkcrush-acc-2026 When using the two-stent double-kissing (DK) crush technique for PCI to treat complex coronary artery bifurcation lesions, IVUS-guided PCI was associated with a greater reduction in target vessel failure compared to angiography-guided PCI, according to the DKCRUSH VIII trial presented during a Late-Breaking Clinical Trial session at ACC.26 in New Orleans and simultaneously published in JACC. 1774885560000 Articles and Stories /Latest-in-Cardiology/Articles/2026/03/25/21/27/sun-830am-allrise-acc-2026 FFRangio, a minimally invasive, artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted, novel method of measuring fractional flow reserve (FFR), performed similarly to traditional wire-based testing in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing assessment for PCI, according to results from the ALL-RISE trial presented during a Late-Breaking Clinical Trial session at ACC.26 in New Orleans and simultaneously published in NEJM. 1774791240000 Articles and Stories /Latest-in-Cardiology/Articles/2026/03/25/21/27/sun-830am-chip-bcis3-acc-2026 Among patients with severe left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and severe coronary heart disease undergoing complex PCI, elective LV unloading with a microaxial flow pump did not reduce the risk of major adverse clinical outcomes and carried a greater risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality... 1774791180000 Articles and Stories /Latest-in-Cardiology/Articles/2026/03/25/21/27/sun-830am-fastIII-acc-2026 Vessel fractional flow reserve (vFFR)-guided revascularization was noninferior to pressure-wire-based fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided revascularization in patients with intermediate coronary lesions, according to results from the FAST III trial presented during a Late-Breaking Clinical Trials session... 1774791180000 Articles and Stories
