Acute Myocardial Infarction After TAVI: Retrospective Analysis of >200,000 Implants
Coronary artery disease is common among patients considered for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). With the expansion of the indication for TAVI to a population with lower surgical risk, and therefore younger, there has been a gradual increase in the incidence of coronary events. However, there is limited data on treatment strategy and outcomes in...
Clopidogrel Monotherapy Beyond 12 months: Long Term Analysis of the STOPDAPT-2
Short dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) has shown benefits in patients receiving drug eluting stents (DES), reducing bleeding with no concomitant increase in major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Traditionally, the therapeutic window was limited to monotherapy with P2Y12 inhibitors during the first year and there are few data on short DAPT followed by long term monotherapy...

Predictors of Stroke at 30 Days and 6 Months After TAVR
While the rate of stroke has decreased since the early days of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), it remains non-negligible, reaching up to 1%-3% at 30 days. As TAVR progressively expands to low-risk populations and younger patients, identifying risk factors for patient selection and management in stroke prevention becomes crucial. While researchers have identified predictors...
CAPTIS, a Novel Cerebral Embolic Protection System in TAVR
The incidence of stroke after TAVR ranges between 2 and 5%, depending on the series, which has been associated with higher morbimortality, affecting patient quality of life and their psycho-social environment. Many cerebral embolic protection systems have been developed in response, and even though they have been shown beneficial in many studies, their role in...
Prognostic Impact of SYNTAX and SYNTAX II Scores in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) continues to be a clinically significant condition due to its association with morbidity and mortality after the initial event. Therefore, the prognostic stratification of these patients is of vital importance. One of the tools that have been used for several years for this purpose is the SYNTAX I (SS) and SYNTAX...
