Value of NT-proBNP in risk stratification and treatment optimization in T2D patients
To present the Heart Failure Roche ESC 2021 tutorial, Dr M Vaduganathan and Dr A Genis share results from the latest innovative research. In this recording of the tutorial session, listen to them as they elaborate on how NT-proBNP can be used to identify patients with type 2 diabetes at high risk of developing heart failure and the benefits of allocating cardioprotective treatments to these patients.

The underappreciated value of PMI-screening
In this replay of Roche ESC Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) Tutorial from ESC 2021, Dr. C Puelacher and Dr. D Gualandro talk about PMI and MINS and how to detect and differentiate both patients undergoing non cardiac surgery. They also present insights on the evidence and guidelines that exist for both PMI and MINS algorithms and how physicians can implement them in daily practice.
