Mobile interventional stroke team travels to patients for providing faster access to surgical treatment

Stroke patients were almost twice as likely to be functionally independent - mobile and able to perform daily tasks - at 90 days post-stroke if they were treated by a specialized mobile stroke team that traveled to them to perform mechanical clot removal, compared to those who were transferred to a thrombectomy stroke center, according to research conducted within the Mount Sinai Health System and published today in Stroke, a journal of the American Stroke Association, a division of the American Heart Association.

Return to play can be managed for athletes with genetic heart diseases, study suggests

Receiving the diagnosis of a genetic heart disease such as long QT syndrome, which can cause sudden cardiac death, has long been a game-ender for young athletes. But a 20-year study at Mayo Clinic following such athletes who were allowed to return to play suggests that the risks can be managed through a shared decision-making process.

A type of echocardiogram may predict COVID-19 patients most at risk of developing atrial fibrillation

Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine have shown that a type of echocardiogram, a common test to evaluate whether a person's heart is pumping properly, may be useful in predicting which patients with COVID-19 are most at risk of developing atrial fibrillation - an irregular heartbeat that can increase a person's risk for heart failure and stroke, among other heart issues.
