ATLANTA, GA (May 20, 2022) – Results from early clinical evaluation of the Alleviant System to treat heart failure patients with preserved and reduced ejection fraction (HFpEF and HFrEF) was presented ...

Results from early clinical evaluation of the Alleviant System to treat heart failure patients with preserved and reduced ejection fraction (HFpEF and HFrEF) was presented today as late-breaking ...

Lipomas can occur in the heart, including in the visceral and parietal pericardium. Parietal pericardial lipomas are often clinically mistaken for pericardial cysts. Multiple myocardial lipomas have ...

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) can arise from a range of genetic and physiological triggers, but the common denominator—elevated left atrial (LA) pressure—has spawned a host of ...

FDA advisors on Wednesday will deliberate on whether shunt therapy still has a narrow path forward in heart failure after a disappointing pivotal trial. In its premarket approval application for the ...
