Eagle’s Eye View: Smartwatch Screening Improved AFib Detection
In this week’s View, Dr. Eagle looks at the ORBITA-2 trial and how percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may lead to greater symptom relief in older adults. He then explores the EQUAL trial that investigated how Apple smartwatch monitoring improves atrial fibrillation (AFib) detection. Finally, Dr. Eagle examines revelations from the EMPEROR-Preserved trial regarding interaction between SGLT2 inhibitors and baseline magnesium levels in treating patients who have either heart failure (HF) or HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
