Glens Falls Hospital announced it completed its first Barostim implant surgery this week - a type of advanced therapy for patients with heart failure. Approved by the FDA in 2019, the procedure involves implanting a small device under the skin that sends electrical signals to the body’s baroreceptors. This helps stimulate the nervous system and regulate heart and blood vessel function. Patients have been able to increase their exercise and live with less fatigue after the surgery.

Another has been serving hot dogs at a narrow counter since 1932. A third opens at 5 a.m. and closes at 11 a.m., which makes lunch there basically a rumor.
