• New clinical care models.
• The role of geriatric palliative care for older adults in the hospital.
• Using point-of-care ultrasound for the initial management of shock.
• Canine-assisted therapy for people hospitalized and awaiting heart transplantation.
• Risk factors for a type of early heart attack called premature myocardial infarction.
