MedPage Today's latest cardiology roundup leads with the appointment of two cardiologists to the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force. Ronald Karlsberg, MD, and Venkatesh Murthy, MD, PhD, are among the new members of the influential panel, according to the report.
The same roundup also lists a wrist nerve stimulator for atrial fibrillation and an incident involving a doctor impaled by a tree as additional topics. The excerpt provides no further details on these two items.
Because the source is a roundup, the three items are unrelated. The only substantive detail available is the USPSTF appointment; the other headlines are presented without elaboration in the excerpt.
