This week, LucidQuest distills nine breakthroughs. Global societies now urge tracking LVEF trajectories—rather than single cut-offs—to redefine heart-failure phenotypes. Sensydia’s pivotal CPS™ trial pursues catheter-free, acoustic pressure mapping. Real-world data show iRhythm’s Zio® boosts arrhythmia detection and halves repeat testing and cardiovascular events. GLP-1 receptor agonists cut atrial-fibrillation episodes independent of weight loss. Children’s Hospital LA pioneers pig-to-infant heart xenotransplants. CATIS-2 warns early blood-pressure reduction post-stroke may harm normotensive patients, while AdventHealth Orlando launches ECMO-assisted CPR for refractory arrest. ALT-SHOCK-2 finds early intra-aortic balloon pumping neutral in HF-related cardiogenic shock. Finally, an AI model mines routine bone scans in seconds, quantifying vascular calcification to predict cardiac risk.
