Left Atrial Appendage Closure vs Direct Anticoagulants at Long Term

Left Atrial Appendage Closure vs Direct Anticoagulants at Long Term

The PRAGUE-17 has shown that left atrial appendage closure is not inferior to direct anticoagulants at long term to prevent major cardiovascular, neurological, or bleeding events. Moreover, procedures not related to prosthesis implantation saw significant reduction. The PRAGUE-17 was a randomized non-inferiority study comparing left atrial appendage closure (Watchman or Amulet) with direct anticoagulants (95%

This work aims to find differences in the risk of dementia between patients treated with traditional choice warfarin vs. different direct anticoagulants. Between 2014 and 2017, this study enrolled 72,846 patients >40 years with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation who
