How a CardioScore Test Can Detect Heart Disease Before Symptoms Start
<p>Cathy Jacobson thought she was healthy. She exercised, felt fine and had no idea dangerous plaque was building inside her arteries. But after a coronary calcium scan, often called a CardioScore test, doctors discovered severe heart disease eventually led to quadruple bypass surgery. Cathy shares the emotional moment she learned she needed open heart surgery, while cardio-thoracic surgeon Dr. Greg Muehlebach, from The University of Kansas Health System, explains how coronary calcium scoring helps detect hidden heart disease before a heart attack happens. The conversation also explores elevated Lp(a), family history risks, who should consider getting screened. He explains why this quick test is becoming a powerful tool in preventative heart care. This is a real-world look at how early detection can save lives.</p>

Angina Chest Pain: New Device May Help Improve Blood Flow to the Heart
<p>Anne Weishaar lived with daily chest pain for years after undergoing triple bypass heart surgery. The pain was caused by angina, a condition often linked to reduced blood flow to the heart and coronary artery disease. At times, the pain spread into her arms, shoulders and neck, forcing her to rely on nitroglycerin tablets just to get through the day. In this episode of All Things Heart, Anne shares what it was like to live with chronic angina and why she decided to take part in a clinical trial at The University of Kansas Health System. Her doctors explain what angina is, why it is not the same as a heart attack, and how a small hourglass-shaped device called a coronary sinus reducer may help improve blood flow to areas of the heart. They also discuss who may qualify for the clinical trial, how the device is implanted, possible risks and what this new approach could mean for patients still searching for relief. This is a hopeful look at innovation in heart care and a new option for people living with ongoing chest pain.</p>

Hidden Heart Defect Found During Routine Checkup: Per Christensen's Story
<p>A routine physical led to a life-changing discovery for 40-year-old Per Christensen. After years of other health challenges and countless medical tests, a nurse practitioner heard a faint heart murmur that no one had noticed before. Further testing at The University of Kansas Health System revealed Per had been living with a congenital heart defect called a bicuspid aortic valve. In this episode of All Things Heart, Per shares his journey from diagnosis to open heart surgery, including the Ross procedure performed by cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Todd Crawford. Dr. Crawford explains what a bicuspid aortic valve is, how it can go undetected into adulthood, and why the Ross procedure was the right option. The conversation also covers heart murmurs, preventive care, valve replacement, cardiac rehab, recovery after heart surgery, and why keeping a routine physical can make a life-changing difference.</p>
