What is the Polypill?
Dr. Valentin Fuster discusses the Polypill. The Polypill is being developed in response to an important reality surrounding cardiovascular disease. There are three important drugs that can help prevent heart disease (statins, ACE inhibitors, and aspirin). These drugs are not taken for two major reasons. First, the drugs are simply too expensive for much of the world, including countries as developed as Russia. And secondly, in developed nations where the drugs are affordable patients too often fail to comply - after three years 70% of patients do not take the medications as prescribed.

Worried Sick? There Might Be Some Truth There
A recent report by health provider BUPA has found that people's worries are damaging their health by causing sleepless nights, loss of sex drive, and erratic eating habits. The 2007 Worry Report demonstrates that almost one in five people constantly worry about numerous things, and more than half feel they worry more now than five years ago. Half of the people surveyed this year, which is 6% more than in 2006, claimed they were more worried about their health and their family's health than about other concerning issues such as climate change or terrorist attacks. The survey finds that almost three quarters of people worry, but around 19% admit to worrying all the time or about a number of things. ( Read more about Worried Sick?

What is Peripheral Arterial Disease?
Dr. Sattesh Babu of Vascular Associates of Westchester discusses Peripheral Arterial Disease, who is at risk, why it is important to be screened and current treatments. Pad is essentially a blockage of the arteries in the lower extremities. That is what we mean by peripheral arteries -- leg arteries blocked by hardening of the arteries, buildup of cholesterol, plaque and calcium. This in part is a process of aging, but certainly also brought on by smoking. Diabetes is another risk factor, as is hypertension. ( Read more about What is Peripheral Arterial Disease?)

New research released by the CDC shows, among women, no significant increase in obesity was observed between 1999 and 2004…roughly a third of females remain obese ( Read more about Women, Obesity Rates, and the Fountain of Youth)

Stent Danger
There’s new evidence the latest generation of coronary stents--those that are coated with drugs--may in fact be associated with an increased risk of blood clots in the heart arteries they’re designed to keep open. Coronary stents have been an incredible advance in cardiology. The latest type, those that are coated with drugs, help keep the arteries clear by preventing scar tissue from developing. But now comes new worries over a delayed side effect: a blockage of these stents by clot formation. It has doctors wondering how to best address the problem. ( Read more about Stent Danger)

You'd think if you go to an accredited hospital, you would get a uniformly high standard of care, especially when it comes to heart failure treatment, one of the most common reasons for hospital admission. Further, this quality of care should extend from the time of admission to a careful hospital discharge summary. ( Read more about Heart Failure Care)
