  • Beta-Blocker vs. Calcium-Channel Blocker in HCM
    Mar 11 2026
    In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the differential effect of bisoprolol versus verapamil in nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) treatment. He then explores lower heart failure (HF) hospitalization risk in patients with type 2 diabetes, comparing GLP-1RAs to DPP-4 inhibitors and similar outcomes with SGLT-2 inhibitors. Dr. Eagle then examines the use of shared decision-making and decision aids in percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO). Finally, the iModern trial, which compares immediate percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) guided by instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) and deferred PCI guided by cardiac stress magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with STEMI and multivessel disease, is discussed.  Subscribe to Eagle's Eye View
