Wow. Even in an open label trial, PCI in the “perfect” patient (amenable anatomy + viability) did not result in QOL improvements at one year over simple tablets.

REVIVED continues to shock the cardiology community

Don't delay initiation of Heart Failure therapy, prescribe as many as possible, as early as possible. Benefits are seen within days / weeks. Think about the risks of omitting HF therapy!

Great presentation from Lisa Anderson. Elevated NT-ProBNP levels are associated with increased mortality before an echocardiogram is performed calling for an immediate action even before the LVEF is assessed
