Listen "Anticoagulation Alone vs Anticoagulation Plus Aspirin or DAPT Following Watchman FLX Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion"
Episode Synopsis
In the September 3, 2024, issue of JACC, Dr. Samuel Reinhart and team find that using direct oral anticoagulants alone is associated with fewer adverse events compared to combining them with aspirin after left atrial appendage occlusion. Their large-scale study suggests this streamlined approach might be optimal, though further randomized trials are needed to address limitations and refine long-term antithrombotic strategies.
