Deepak Bhatt, MD, detailed several recent clinical trials that could reshape the way clinicians manage acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients.

A catheter sheath detached during use and was left in the patient’s body. It was successfully removed, but the FDA said it is now evaluating the potential risk to others going forward. There is no official recall at this time.

Coronary artery disease is both underdiagnosed and undertreated in women, and they often receive less guideline-recommended care than men. Why do these disparities persist? And what can today’s healthcare providers do to bring about change?

Deepak Bhatt, MD, believes bentracimab could be a game-changer if it gains approval. "I think it's the sort of drug that every emergency room and ICU would have to stock," he said. "A cardiac care unit would have to stock a couple of doses, as would every cath lab."

Richard Kovacs, MD, detailed some the most important late-breaking cardiology pharmacology trials presented at ACC.25.

Researchers focused on data from nearly 78,000 adults with cardiometabolic disorders, sharing their findings at ACC.25 in Chicago.

Researchers still think patients should receive an injectable version of semaglutide when possible, but new data out of ACC.25 confirm that an oral formulation of the drug is associated with significant benefits.
