A new scientific statement from the American Heart Association explores the many ways AI and machine learning are being used to improve care for heart patients.

According to the agency, using these devices “may cause serious injuries or death.”

Using CT to perform coronary artery calcium scoring on symptomatic chest pain patients can deliver significant value, according to a new data published in Radiology. 

The newly cleared device is worn on the back of the arm and sends data directly to the user's smartphone. 

New data out of Germany suggest TMVR can offer intermediate-risk patients a safe alternative to surgery.

The new software was also added to the FDA's Tap Pilot program, an honor reserved for “high-quality, safe, effective and innovative medical devices."

Researchers say their new analysis, based on five years of U.S. data, highlights just how important it is to keep post-TAVR PPMI rates to a minimum. 

Ken Rosenfield, MD, of Massachusetts General Hospital, and William Gray, MD, of Lankenau Heart Institute, detailed the long-term impact of a key policy shift.
