What is ECG Age Vs. Chronological age, and How to Use it in Your CV Prevention Practice
What is ECG Age Vs. Chronological age, and How to Use it in Your CV Prevention Practice
Guest: Francisco Lopez-Jimenez, M.D., M.S.
Host: Stephen L. Kopecky, M.D.
After listening to this episode of the CV Prevention segment of Mayo Clinic’s podcast “Interviews with the Experts,” listeners will better understand why it is important to differentiate between biological and chronological age. This is something that may help identify increased risk for age-related conditions and factors that may adversely affecting a person’s health. Listeners will become familiar with different ways to measure aging rate or biological age, especially with ECG age. Finally, factors that appear to affect biological age, such as social determinants of health, lack of exercise, excess weight, and stress are discussed.
Topics Discussed:
What is ECG Age?
How did your team come up with the idea?
Why is important to differentiate between biological age and chronological age?

Robotic Cardiac Surgery
Robotic Cardiac Surgery
Guest: Phillip Rowse, M.D.
Guest: Marty Unruh, APRN, C.N.P., D.N.P.
Host: Kyle Klarich, M.D.
In this episode of “Interviews With the Experts,” listeners will hear a discussion on the most important questions patients should ask as they consider whether or not to pursue a robotic-assisted approach for surgical treatment of their valvular heart disease. It is clarified how robotic heart surgery works, including associated risks, benefits, and misconceptions. And finally, there is a discussion on the expected short- and long-term results of robotic heart valve surgery.
Topics Discussed:
What types of procedures can be performed robotically, and how does robotic surgery compare to traditional and other minimally invasive techniques?
Who qualifies for robotic surgery, and is it safe and effective?
What testing is needed beforehand, what is the typical recovery time, and how long is the hospital stay and return-to-work timeline?
Do surgeons perform the procedure or does the robot operate independently?
How many robotic surgeries has Mayo Clinic performed, and what are the benefits compared to open-heart surgery (sternotomy)?

Guest: Nicholas Tan, M.D., M.S.
Host: Anthony H. Kashou, M.D.
In today’s episode of ECG Making Waves, Dr. Anthony Kashou interviews Dr. Nicholas Tan on how to manage anticoagulation in patients with cancer. They discuss the importance of appreciating the challenging balance in managing stroke risk in patients with cancer and atrial fibrillation. After listening to this episode, listeners will understand alternative strategies for stroke prevention in addition to systemic anticoagulation.
Topics Discussed:
What is the relationship between cancer and atrial fibrillation?
Why is stroke prevention challenging in this situation?
What is the role of left atrial appendage closure in cancer patients?

Ceramide Risk Score: How to Incorporate it Into Your CV Prevention Practice
Ceramide Risk Score: How to Incorporate it Into Your CV Prevention Practice
Guest: Vlad Vasile, M.D., Ph.D.
Host: Stephen L. Kopecky, M.D.
Ceramides score is a blood test used to assess the risk of heart attacks and stroke. Most patients evaluated for cardiovascular risk benefit from this test, particularly patients deemed at intermediate risk by other assessments. Score is reported as numbers: the higher the score, the higher the risk. Ceramides score is reproducible and modifiable with lifestyle interventions and medications that lower cholesterol; it also helps with tracking patient progress and motivation.
Topics Discussed:
What is the ceramides score?
How is ceramides score different than hs CRP?
Who benefits from ceramides testing?
