Cardiac Complications On the Rise In Pregnant Women
On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…
Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics affecting our health. First up, Doug and Dr. Ken discuss the biggest news stories in the medical world, starting with the good news of a gene-editing technique that could correct a mutation responsible for a certain type of inherited heart disease. This is a significant step forward that could offer a potential targeted correction of genetic faults.
In other heart news, and not good news, there are more heart complications in pregnant women — which could be related to higher rates of obesity, women getting pregnant at an older age, and a steady increase in heart-related health problems during pregnancy.
Moving on, a discussion on the growing preference of marijuana use over alcohol, and whether or not either is OK in what kind of moderation. In the good news department, there’s a new blood test for cancer detection in your head and neck, a successful pig liver transplant, and AI-powered wearable devices could be the future of medicine for Parkinson’s patients to offer better treatment decisions. Moving on, research shows young students who spend excessive time on social media perform worse on tests in subjects like reading, memory and language.
Then, a focus on the antimicrobial resistance with some bacterial infections becoming drug-resistant, turning routine infections into deadly instances.
