ISCHEMIA: Invasive Strategy No Better Than Meds for CV Events

https://www.tctmd.com/news/ischemia-invasive-strategy-no-bet...

I haven't been able to find out what the medical alternative treatment consists of other than changing diet, losing weight, stop smoking, stop drinking, start exercising, taking statins, etc. These are, of course, all good and useful things, but I knew a man who had a quadruple bypass and refused to make any lifestyle changes. Maybe not having a bypass would have focused him on making those changes.
