Eagle’s Eye View: Can Exercise SBP Relative to Level of Fitness Be Associated with Increased CV Events?
In this week’s View, Dr. Eagle looks at exercise systolic blood pressure (SBP) during stress testing related to cardiovascular (CV) events. He then explores the novel Navitor transcatheter heart valve (THV) and its safety and effectiveness in younger patients requiring transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Finally, Dr. Eagle examines the value of 18F-FAPI PET/CT imaging and its role in assessing risk in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
