This was an interesting study looking at if coronary CTA in people 50-64 years old improved the prediction of primary cardiac events. They did find a mild improvement in the prediction of primary cardiac events in people who had previously been determined to be low risk for cardiac events based on risk factors and coronary artery calcium score. ideally if the radiation exposure from cardiac CTA could be minimized more people would likely benefit from getting CTAs. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2841255?guestAccessKey=192796b1-de03-4be7-b1e1-9d15b0aaeb77&utm_medium=email&utm_source=postup_jn&utm_campaign=article_alert-jamanetwork&utm_content=weekly_highlights-cardiology-tfl_&utm_term=111325 image

This was an interesting study looked at if putting automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in private homes is effective and cost effective. They found it was effective in saving lives but not cost effective. The average cost of an AED can range between $1500-$2500 and it could last anywhere from 5 to 15 years. Given the increased availability of AEDs for the general public to buy we should have cardiology guideline recommendations for patients who may be recommended to own AEDs if they are able to afford it. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullarticle/2840571?guestAccessKey=7801f3e3-d5fb-4513-b2a2-17be8e6507a2&utm_medium=email&utm_source=postup_jn&utm_campaign=article_alert-jamanetwork&utm_content=weekly_highlights-cardiology-tfl_&utm_term=110125 image
