Khurram Nasir, MD offers a Grand Rounds discussion of cardiovascular risk assessment and management and the “power of zero,” in risk assessment (a novel and at times controversial concept for which he was a co-creator) that holds that patients with no evidence of coronary artery calcification need not receive pharmacotherapy or repeated imaging studies. Includes a Q&A with Harvey Waxman, MD, Chief, Cardiology Division, Penn Presbyterian Medical Center.
