The results of the OPTIMA-AF study have been published by the OCVC (Osaka CardioVascular Conference) in today's issue of The Lancet. This study provides significant insights into the reduction of antithrombotic therapy in patients diagnosed with chronic coronary artery disease and atrial fibrillation. https://t.co/ZVuhmTSdGt

OPTIMA-AF published: In AF patients undergoing PCI, 1 month of DOAC + P2Y12 inhibitor followed by DOAC alone was non-inferior to 12 months for death/thromboembolism (5.4% vs 4.3%; HR 1.25) and halved major/CRNM bleeding (4.5% vs 8.8%; HR 0.50, p=0.004). Therefore, shorter may be safer without compromising efficacy. However, efficacy findings should be interpreted with caution in light of the lower-than-anticipated event rates and fixed absolute non-inferiority margin. https://t.co/EpiCGxUmjk

Thank you for the opportunity to be involved in this analysis!🙇♂️
We hope these findings help refine patient selection for adjunctive LVA ablation.🙂
