Episode 146: PREMIUM Two potentially practice changing studies

In episode 146, a PREMIUM podcast, Mike and James talk about some timely studies. Mike discusses some interesting results from a study that looked at the simple intervention of taking antihypertensives at bedtime and we find out that this intervention not only has an impact on blood pressure but also produces a further reduction in cardiovascular events. James then discusses the latest atrial fibrillation study which looked at what happens to cardiovascular events when you compare warfarin to apixaban.
