Use of direct oral anticoagulants after transcatheter aortic valve replacement

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a well-established procedure which shares common features with percutaneous coronary intervention and surgical aortic valve replacement. Technical and clinical aspects influence the appropriate antithrombotic strategy. Anticoagulation management is a priority in patients with atrial fibrillation and may have a role in preventing bioprosthetic valve thrombosis. In this chapter, we will offer a summary of published studies, current recommendations, and future perspectives on optimal medical therapy after TAVR.
