Lo mejor del Congreso 2018 de la American Heart Association / The best of the 2018 American Heart Association Meeting / O melhor do Congresso 2018 da American Heart Association

RESUMEN

Resumen El Congreso de la American Heart Association 2018 tuvo lugar en la ciudad de Chicago, Illinois, del 10 al 12 de noviembre. Contó con múltiples novedades, se presentaron tres nuevas guías de recomendaciones (abordaje de las bradicardias y trastornos de conducción, actividad física, y tal vez la más esperada, la nueva guía de tratamiento de las dislipemias). Al revisar las recomendaciones de 2013, los expertos norteamericanos introdujeron varios cambios, el más importante de los cuales quizá sea disminuir la trascendencia que se le da al cálculo del riesgo a diez años para volver a enfocarse en la meta de las lipoproteínas de baja densidad (LDL), bajo la premisa de que cuanto más bajo, mejor. Realizaremos un breve resumen de algunos de los principales trabajos científicos presentados durante este evento que, sin duda, tendrán una influencia importante en el futuro próximo de la cardiología mundial. - Reduction of Cardiovascular Events With Icosapent Ethyl-Intervention Trial - REDUCE-IT. - Vitamin D Supplements and Prevention of Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease - VITAL. - Angiotensin Receptor-Neprilysin Inhibition in Patients Hospitalized With Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Primary Results of the PIONEER - HF Randomized Controlled Trial. - Pre-hospital Resuscitation Intra-arrest Cooling Effectiveness Survival Study - the PRINCESS Trial.

ABSTRACT

Summary: The American Heart Association 2018 Congress was held in the city of Chicago, Illinois, from November 10 to 12. There were many news, three new recommendations guidelines were presented (approach to bradycardia and driving disorders, physical activity, and perhaps the most anticipated, the new treatment guide for dyslipidemia). In reviewing the 2013 recommendations, US experts introduced several changes, the most important of which may be to reduce the significance of the 10-year risk calculation to refocus on the LDL goal, under the premise of that the lower, the better. We will make a brief summary of some of the main scientific papers presented during this event that will undoubtedly have an important influence in the near future of global cardiology. - Reduction of Cardiovascular Events With Icosapent Ethyl-Intervention Trial - REDUCE-IT. - Vitamin D Supplements and Prevention of Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease - VITAL. - Angiotensin Receptor-Neprilysin Inhibition in Patients Hospitalized With Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Primary Results of the PIONEER-HF Randomized Controlled Trial. - Pre-hospital Resuscitation Intra-arrest Cooling Effectiveness Survival Study - the PRINCESS Trial.

RESUMO

Resumo O Congresso da American Heart Association 2018 foi realizado na cidade de Chicago, Illinois, de 10 a 12 de novembro. Havia muitos novos recursos, três novos guias de recomendações foram apresentados (abordagem para bradicardia e transtornos de direção, atividade física e talvez o mais aguardado, o novo guia de tratamento para dislipidemia). Ao rever as recomendações de 2013, os especialistas norte-americanos introduziram várias mudanças, a mais importante das quais pode ser reduzir a significância do cálculo do risco de 10 anos para reorientar a meta de LDL, sob a premissa de que quanto menor, melhor. Faremos um breve resumo de alguns dos principais trabalhos científicos apresentados durante este evento que, sem dúvida, terão uma influência importante no futuro próximo da cardiologia global. - Reduction of Cardiovascular Events With Icosapent Ethyl-Intervention Trial - REDUCE-IT. - Vitamin D Supplements and Prevention of Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease - VITAL. - Angiotensin Receptor-Neprilysin Inhibition in Patients Hospitalized With Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Primary Results of the PIONEER - HF Randomized Controlled Trial. - Pre-hospital Resuscitation Intra-arrest Cooling Effectiveness Survival Study - the PRINCESS Trial.
