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<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/01/29/clopidogrel-monotherapy-beyond-12-months-long-term-analysis-of-the-stopdapt-2/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Health Status Scores after Transcatheter Repair in Patients with Tricuspid Regurgitation: TRILUMINATE Analysis

Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) has been associated with higher mortality and significant limitations to patient quality of life, with considerable rates of hospitalization for cardiac failure (CF). Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) with TriClip has been shown effective to reduce symptoms, with low risk of periprocedural complications.&nbsp; The aim of this study was to assess functional<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/01/17/health-status-scores-after-transcatheter-repair-in-patients-with-tricuspid-regurgitation-triluminate-analysis/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Carotid Stenosis and TAVR

Aortic Stenosis affects over 5% of the population over 65.&nbsp; Even though TAVR has advanced in the treatment of this disease, many patients present carotid aortic stenosis (CAS), which involves additional surgical risk. This risk has not been thoroughly assessed in the context of TAVR.&nbsp; A meta-analysis was carried out including 5 observational studies with<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/01/12/carotid-stenosis-and-tavr/" title="Read more" >...</a>

ACURATE Neo2: One-Year Hemodynamic and Clinical Benefit Results

Both Acurate Neo2 and its predecessor, Acurate Neo, have proven their safety and efficacy in the percutaneous treatment of severe aortic stenosis. The Acurate platform offers a lower gradient and a larger effective orifice area, as well as a low risk of periprocedural complications, according to previous registries.&nbsp; However, the first-generation Acurate device had some<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/01/12/acurate-neo2-one-year-hemodynamic-and-clinical-benefit-results/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Dissection and Re-Entry Technique in Chronic Total Occlusions: Data from the PROGRESS-CTO Registry

The antegrade dissection and re-entry (ADR) technique is considered essential for the management of chronic total occlusions (CTO). It serves as the primary option in some protocols for complex and extensive lesions or as a backup strategy in case of failure with other initial strategies. Dissection techniques include guided methods such as scratch and go,<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/01/08/dissection-and-re-entry-technique-in-chronic-total-occlusions-data-from-the-progress-cto-registry/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Outcomes of the Use of Drug Coated Balloons in the Treatment of De Novo Coronary Lesions

Drug coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty offers a novel strategy for treating coronary artery disease. Studies assessing this strategy have shown clinical outcomes comparable to drug-eluting stents’ (DES) in patients with in-stent restenosis and&nbsp;de novo&nbsp;disease in small vessels. However, evidence for the use of DCB in large coronary vessels is limited. This observational, retrospective study DCB<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2023/12/21/outcomes-of-the-use-of-drug-coated-balloons-in-the-treatment-of-de-novo-coronary-lesions/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Tricuspid Regurgitation: Natural Progression and Prognosis

The prevalence of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is significant; its prognosis is well known, and severe TR stages are associated with higher mortality and hospitalization for cardiac failure (CF). Seeing as valve disease tends to evolve over time, in advanced stages, we usually check on patients at specified intervals for early identification of potential hemodynamic complications<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2023/12/19/tricuspid-regurgitation-natural-progression-and-prognosis/" title="Read more" >...</a>

New Advances in Mitral Regurgitation Devices with Promising Results

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a frequent valvulopathy and when the optimal medical treatment at maximum tolerated doses is not enough, surgery is the first course of action. And even though edge-to-edge repair with clips has seen substantial improvement, it is currently reserved for those at high risk of surgery.&nbsp; However, there is an increasing number<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2023/12/15/new-advances-in-mitral-regurgitation-devices-with-promising-results/" title="Read more" >...</a>
