🫀 Hidden. Dangerous. Overlooked: Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction
from Dr RR Baliga's "Got Knowledge Doc" Podkast · host MasterMedFacts LLC
🫀 Coronary microvascular dysfunction is no longer a "hidden" diagnosis. The new FLOW-CMD Registry published in The Lancet demonstrates that coronary microvascular dysfunction frequently coexists with obstructive coronary artery disease and significantly increases adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Patients with CMD had: ⚠️ Higher cardiac death ⚠️ More repeat revascularization ⚠️ Increased heart failure hospitalization risk This study reminds us that ischemic heart disease is more than epicardial stenosis alone. Coronary physiology — CFR, IMR, and FFR — may reshape future risk stratification and management. 🎙️ Featured on Dr RR Baliga's Podkast for the Kurious Doc: Where Curiosity Meets Clarity! #Cardiology #CoronaryMicrovascularDysfunction #InterventionalCardiology #HeartFailure #MedicalPodcasts
