Stephen Bloom, M.D., FASNC, director of nonivasive cardiology (cardiac CT, nuclear cardiology and echocardiography) at Midwest Heart and Vascular Associates, Overland Park, Kansas. He is also a member of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology (ASNC) Board of Directors, explains some of the issues involved and protocols used for cardiac imaging during the COVID-19 pandemic. His discussion includes computed tomography, cardiac ultrasound and nuclear imaging.
Right now, Bloom said it is difficult to test everybody and there is a shortage of masks, gowns and other personal protective equipment (PPE), and the imaging equipment needs to be sanitized each time it is used. He said it is just is not possible to image all the patients who need imaging right now. Hospitals also are trying to limit the number of healthy people people coming into hospitals for routine visits and tests to reduce their potential exposure to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2) and help containment efforts.
"The tests should be done, very simply, if it changes the care of the patient. If it doesn't change the care of the patient, and it can be postponed, it should be postponed," Bloom explained. "I would say 80 percent of our cardiac imaging exams have stopped. It has been very dramatic."

As part of DAIC's continuing Thought Leadership Series, this month Editorial Director Melinda Taschetta-Millane sits down with Philip B. Adamson, MD, MSc, FACC, Chief Medical Officer of CVRx, to talk about health equity — starting at the beginning of clinical trials, and including how medical device manufacturers need a clear roadmap from the get-go to achieve success.
As Chief Medical Officer of CVRx, Dr. Adamson will spearhead efforts to drive awareness and appropriate use of Barostim therapy among clinicians. He will guide comprehensive medical education, outreach and guideline integration initiatives to establish Barostim as the standard of care for patients with heart failure. Dr. Adamson previously was with Abbott Laboratories, where he served as Divisional Vice President and Chief Medical Officer of the Heart Failure division. A renowned expert in heart failure, he has nearly three decades of experience in academia as a professor and as a practicing cardiologist, during which time he authored over 150 manuscripts and book chapters. Dr. Adamson earned his MD with distinction from the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine and MSc in physiology from the University of Oklahoma.
His clinical interests focus on developing more efficient and effective disease management systems for patients with chronic heart failure, specifically focusing on remote monitoring of physiologic signals from implanted devices. He has also served as the principal investigator on the steering committees of several large randomized clinical trials over the past decade.

HIMMS is working to bring empirical knowledge and evidence of value and impact of digital maturity measured by the HIMSS maturity models and the Digital Health Indicator (DHI), which is a blueprint for digital health advancement. The maturity models provide prescriptive frameworks to healthcare organizations to help build their digital health ecosystems. DAIC spoke with Anne Snowdon, RN, PhD, FAAN, professor of strategy entrepreneurship, Odette Business School, University of Windsor, CEO of SCAN Health and Chief Scientific Research Officer, HIMSS Analytics, to find out more about these models, and what the latest scientific research is telling us.

As part of DAIC's continuing Thought Leadership Series, this month Editorial Director Melinda Taschetta-Millane sits down with Philip B. Adamson, MD, MSc, FACC, Chief Medical Officer of CVRx, to talk about health equity — starting at the beginning of clinical trials, and including how medical device manufacturers need a clear roadmap from the get-go to achieve success.
As Chief Medical Officer of CVRx, Dr. Adamson will spearhead efforts to drive awareness and appropriate use of Barostim therapy among clinicians. He will guide comprehensive medical education, outreach and guideline integration initiatives to establish Barostim as the standard of care for patients with heart failure. Dr. Adamson previously was with Abbott Laboratories, where he served as Divisional Vice President and Chief Medical Officer of the Heart Failure division. A renowned expert in heart failure, he has nearly three decades of experience in academia as a professor and as a practicing cardiologist, during which time he authored over 150 manuscripts and book chapters. Dr. Adamson earned his MD with distinction from the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine and MSc in physiology from the University of Oklahoma.
His clinical interests focus on developing more efficient and effective disease management systems for patients with chronic heart failure, specifically focusing on remote monitoring of physiologic signals from implanted devices. He has also served as the principal investigator on the steering committees of several large randomized clinical trials over the past decade.
