Here is our Top Blog Post for today, brought to you by MedReader:
- (Brief) Reaction to Article “Percutaneous Coronary Intervention vs. Coronary Bypass Grafting for Severe Coronary Artery Disease”
“Percutaneous Coronary Intervention versus Coronary-Artery Bypass Grafting for Severe Coronary Artery Disease” by Patrick W. Serruys, M.D., et. al. (New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), March 5, 2009)
I was drawn tonight to the above NEJM article by an article posted on the New York Times (NYT) website, “Heart Stents Found as Effective as Bypass for Many Patients” by Roni Caryn Rabin. This NEJM article has yet to be published in print but was published in advance online.
My first two reactions to the study (and there were many others but these I feel are the most important):” Go to blog and finish reading the highlighted points regarding this study to entirely grasp the doctor’s reaction to this perspective in medicine.
