π₯ Hot off the press! π₯ New data on the impact of weather conditions on the onset of aortic dissection π§οΈ βοΈ βοΈ πͺοΈ https://lnkd.in/eThY96AX Patient-specific weather exposure 14 days prior to aortic dissection onset β not just regional averages, but real patient individualized data! π‘ Why it matters for clinicians: π Subjective cold exposure, as quantified by apparent temperature and windchill, may potentially be an acute trigger of acute type A aortic dissection. π These findings highlight the importance of "felt" environmental conditions in risk assessment and point towards new avenues for prevention during adverse weather events. #Cardiacsurgery #AorticDissection #ClinicalResearch #PrecisionMedicine #PatientCare π Joseph Kletzer Dr. Antonia van Kampen Sven Peterss Tim Berger Maximilian Kreibich Caroline Radner Zara Dietze Sergey Leontyev Michael Borger Christian Hagl Martin Czerny Prof. Dr. med.
