  • CHAMPION-AF: Left Atrial Appendage Closure vs. Anticoagulation For AFib
    Device-based left atrial appendage (LAA) closure was comparable to non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant (NOAC) therapy in reducing the combined rate of death from cardiovascular causes, stroke, or systemic embolism at three years in patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who were candidates for anticoagulation, based on findings from the CHAMPION-AF trial presented at ACC.26 and […]
  • HI-PEITHO: Ultrasound-Facilitated, Catheter-Directed Fibrinolysis For Acute PE
    In patients with acute, intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism (PE), ultrasound-facilitated, catheter-directed fibrinolysis plus anticoagulation led to a lower risk of PE-related death, cardiopulmonary decompensation or collapse, or recurrence of PE compared with anticoagulation alone. These findings from the HI-PEITHO trial were presented at ACC.26 in New Orleans and simultaneously published in NEJM.
  • STEMI-DTU: Left Ventricular Unloading in Anterior STEMI Without Shock
    Compared with immediate PCI alone, the combination of mechanical left ventricular (LV) unloading using a transvalvular micro-axial flow pump (TV-mAFP) plus delayed PCI did not reduce infarct size in patients with anterior STEMI without cardiogenic shock, according to findings from the STEMI-DTU trial presented at ACC.26 and simultaneously published in JACC.
