Featured Research Articles Article 1: Ivabradine in Patients Undergoing Noncardiac Surgery: a Randomized Controlled Trial. Journal: Circulation PubMed Link: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40884771 Summary: This randomized controlled trial investigated ivabradine, a selective heart rate lowering agent, in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery to prevent myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery. The study found no significant reduction in myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery with ivabradine compared to placebo in patients aged 45 years or older with or at risk of atherosclerotic disease. These findings do not support routine use of ivabradine for prevention of myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery. Full Episode Transcript Today’s date is September 01, 2025.
