Episodes
  • Rhythm Control & Tricuspid Valve Regurgitation; Benefits of Blood Pressure Control on Cardiovascular Disease; Switching DOAC Therapy in AFIB Patients with Stroke; Pulsed Field Ablation & Persistent AFib
    May 13 2026

    In this week's View, Dr. Eagle examines the role of rhythm control in improving moderate-to-severe and severe secondary tricuspid valve regurgitation. He then explores evidence showing that blood pressure reduction can deliver comparable cardiovascular benefits for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Another study reviewed in this episode assesses the outcomes of continuing versus switching direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who experience breakthrough stroke. Finally, Dr. Eagle summarizes the AVANTE-GUARD trial, which evaluates pulsed field ablation as a first-line treatment for patients with persistent AFib.

  • Pulsed Field Ablation and PAS; TRIDENT & Antihypertensive Polypharmacy; NOBLE and PCI vs. CABG
    May 6 2026

    In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the NOBLE trial evaluating whether percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is best for patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease (CAD). He then explores a report highlighting nanosecond pulsed field ablation (nsPFA) and its safety and efficacy at one year for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Finally, Dr. Eagle presents a summary of the TRIDENT trial, which compares a triple‑pill antihypertensive strategy with conventional therapy and finds a positive impact on hypertension management and stroke risk following intracerebral hemorrhage.

  • Benefits of Endovascular Therapy for Post-Thrombotic Syndrome; Sex Hormones & CV Risk; Asundexian & Stroke Risk; Cardiorespiratory Fitness & Longer Lifespans
    Apr 29 2026
    In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at endovascular therapy for post-thrombotic syndrome and how it reduces severity and improves quality of life. He then explores current evidence and strategies to address sex hormone-associated thrombotic and cardiovascular risk. Next, Dr. Eagle examines the OCEANIC-STROKE trial which studied asundexian and its potential to lower recurrent stroke risk in patients with noncardioembolic stroke or transient ischemic attack. Finally, Dr. Eagle asks the question, is high cardiorespiratory fitness associated with longer lifespan and lower multimorbidity? Subscribe to Eagle's Eye View
