Expiratory Flow Limitation, or EFL, is closely associated with hyperinflation and air trapping, particularly patients with COPD. Poor expiratory flow can also impact a patient's ability to clear their own secretions. In this study of COPD patients, almost all saw improvement in their EFL scores when treated with IPV therapy.

Nephrologist Ladan Golestaneh's research reveals the challenges in managing chronic kidney disease. Patients often resort to dialysis due to limited access to medical care, leading to early dialysis initiation. Golestaneh advocates for incentivizing health systems to prioritize pre-dialysis care, aiming to postpone the need for dialysis and improve patient outcomes.</div><div class="read-more"><a href="" class="more-link">Continue reading</a>https://lnkd.in/geyuVnND

Introducing the CorVista System’s new PH Add-On, a breakthrough for patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). Did you know, on average, there’s a two-year delay in diagnosing PH, leading to worsened outcomes? This delay is especially concerning for women, who may experience subtle symptoms. With the CorVista System’s PH Add-On, we’re aiming to reduce barriers by delivering a point-of-care test to aid in the diagnosis of PH, thereby enabling earlier detection and patient care. #pulmonaryhypertension #cardiovasculardisease #medicaldevices
