Recent Advances in Cardiac Procedures and Anticoagulation Strategies

In this week’s View, Dr. Eagle examines the effects on patients who have undergone pre-ablation transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) versus those who have not. He then discusses a recent paper investigating the superiority of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) at one year in women with severe aortic stenosis (AS). Finally, Dr. Eagle explores OCEANIC-AF, a study that analyzes the differences in outcomes in patients with and without prior use of oral anti-coagulants (OACs).
