#180 Beta-Blockers & REDUCE-AMI Trial: Beyond Journal Club Segment with NEJM Group


Listen Later

How much do beta blockers help after a heart attack, even when the heart’s pumping well? In this episode, we revisit the origins of beta blockers in post-MI care, examine how evidence evolved, and explore the REDUCE-AMI trial, which questions whether beta blockers are still needed for all.

Listen to this latest episode of Beyond Journal Club, a collaboration between Core IM and NEJM Group, where we put research into context tracing the arc of evidence, dissecting the clinical question, and exploring what the findings could mean for real-world patient care
