This piece focuses upon the Hypotension Predictive Index (HPI) technology. We look at the validation process of HPI, addressing criticisms and clarifying its predictive ability for hemodynamic instability. How important is it to understand the underlying causes of instability rather than solely relying on blood pressure readings? What is the role of HPI in early detection and proactive management? The discussion also touches on the limitations of traditional mean arterial pressure (MAP) monitoring and the need for a holistic approach to hemodynamic assessment. Presented by Desiree Chappell, TopMedTalk's co-editor in Chief, speaking with Monty Mythen, Senior Vice President Medical Affairs, Edwards Lifesciences, Critical Care, Emeritus Professor of Anaesthesia and Critical Care, University College London, Thomas Sheeran, Senior Director Medical Affairs, Edwards Lifesciences, and Simon Davies, Consultant Anaesthetist at York Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. The paper 'Comparison of Differences in Cohort (Forward) and Case Control (Backward) Methodological Approaches for Validation of the Hypotension Prediction Index' is here: https://pubs.asahq.org/anesthesiology/article/doi/10.1097/ALN.0000000000004989/139987/Comparison-of-Differences-in-Cohort-Forward-and?searchresult=1 Here's the link to the Physiology Lab section of last year's ASA symposium on YouTube: https://youtu.be/yfl1VMMgIRs?si=YxGfOs-pdlIVVGt1 Here are publications relating HPI to hemodynamic instability at a microcirculation level: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33755645/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36335548/

TR, where the heart's valve does not close properly causing blood backflow, can now be treated with this device, which also received CE Mark approval in Europe and is produced by Edwards Lifesciences. Afami-Cel for Synovial Sarcoma The FDA is prioritizing the review of afamitresgene autoleucel (afami-cel) for advanced synovial sarcoma, based on positive results from the SPEARHEAD-1 trial showing a 39% response rate and increased survival rates. Afami-cel targets MAGE-A4 in synovial sarcoma, a rare soft tissue sarcoma, offering a new treatment option for this aggressive disease. It's manufactured by Adaptimmune Therapeutics with a decision expected by August 4, 2024.  Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation Boston Scientific's FARAPULSE PFA System has been FDA approved for treating intermittent atrial fibrillation, offering a non-thermal, tissue-selective ablation alternative with proven safety and efficacy. The approval was based on the ADVENT study and real-world data, highlighting shorter ablation times and no severe side effects. Boston Scientific plans an immediate U.S. launch. Shorter Turnaround Time for Axi-cel The FDA approved a manufacturing process change for axi-cel (Yescarta), reducing delivery time from 16 to 14 days, which is a CD19-directed CAR T-cell therapy for certain lymphomas. This change, granted to Kite, a Gilead Sciences subsidiary, aims to improve treatment accessibility by offering faster delivery of this personalized therapy. AI Algorithm for Cervical Cancer Screening Hologic's Genius™ Digital Diagnostics System with the Genius™ Cervical AI algorithm has been FDA approved, introducing the first digital cytology platform integrating AI for cervical cancer screening. This system digitizes traditional Pap test slides, applying AI to enhance detection of pre-cancerous and cancerous cells, improving sensitivity and enabling remote case review. It will be available in the U.S. in early 2024. Trastuzumab Deruxtecan for Solid Tumors The FDA granted priority review to trastuzumab deruxtecan for treating unresectable or metastatic HER2-positive solid tumors, potentially marking it as the first HER2-directed, tumor-agnostic therapy. Based on the DESTINY-PanTumor02 study, showing promising survival outcomes, a decision is expected in the second quarter of 2024. The drug is developed by AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo.
