Surgery still more common than TMVR among AMI patients, but the gap is shrinking

The study's authors emphasized how important it is for clinicians to work together to determine the best treatment strategy.

With advances and increased experience in the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), same-day discharge (SDD) has become increasingly commonplace, but patient selection is key. Antithrombotic therapy may not be necessary for certain transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) patients, according to a new analysis published in JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions.

TAVR or surgery? Cardiologists say better communication would boost care for patients with structural heart disease

“This survey gives the cardiology community clearer insights into how to enhance the conversations we are already having and align on patient priorities," one specialist said.

Large peridevice leaks after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) are incredibly rare and not associated with a greater risk of adverse outcomes, according to new research published in JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology.[1] Smaller residual links are more common, however, and associated with a risk of thromboembolic and bleeding events.
