The trajectory for those with cardiovascular disease has changed drastically in the past few decades. Cardiologists Michael Koren and Seth Baum discuss the amazing 60% drop in cardiovascular mortality since the 1980's and the worrying rebound in heart-related mortality starting around 2012. They dissect various influences for both of these trends, including changes in diet, a widespread drop in medical compliance, and wavering public opinion on heart medicines like statins.
Dr. Koren and Dr. Baum then dive into some potential ways to tackle the worrying recent trend, including education and new medicines which may be easier and more effective. They explain how clinical trials are the gold standard for how scientists and researchers gather data about medicine and heart care
