BackgroundCerebral embolic protection devices (CEPD) capture embolic material in an attempt to reduce ischemic brain injury during transcatheter aortic valve replacement. Primary clinical outcome was all‐cause stroke. Secondary clinical outcomes were disabling stroke and all‐cause mortality.

Addressing the serious issue of delayed and missed findings in diagnostic imaging, CINA-iPE is an AI-powered tool that detects incidental pulmonary embolism during routine CT scans. This is particularly relevant in the cancer patient population, where pulmonary embolism is a significant cause of mortality.

Objective Postprocedural ischaemic and bleeding risks after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remain a major concern. Ischaemic events were defined as myocardial infarction, stroke, transient ischaemic attack or peripheral embolism at 1 year.

A fib is a well-established risk factor for ischemic strokes. In patients with nonvalvular A fib, the majority of embolic strokes are caused by thrombi development in the left atrial appendage. Systemic anticoagulation (AC) is effective in reducing stroke risk in patients with A fib. 5,661 underwent percutaneous closure.

This year’s TCT conference saw a deluge of TAVR studies examining everything from the efficacy of valve designs to TAVR’s impact on aortic and tricuspid regurgitation. The TAVR UNLOAD trial also found that there’s not much to gain by performing earlier TAVR in patients with HFrEF and moderate aortic stenosis.
