JUST OUT #JACCINT @JACCJournals ! Our Redo #TAVR concept and planning simplified. Coronary Risk Zone (CRZ) denotes the zone that you MUST measure the valve to coronary/aorta/STJ distance to assess coronary obstruction risk. The minimal distance is what matter most. Great work by @OleDeBacker @bapat_savrtavr @Miho_Fukui_ @SyedZaid to help move this field forward!

#EuroPCR 2025 Major Late-Breaking Trials – One-month dual antiplatelet therapy followed by prasugrel monotherapy at a reduced dose

Results of the 4D-ACS randomised trial show that, at 12-months, NACE occurred in 4.9% of the 1-month #DAPT group and 8.8% of the 12-month DAPT group, meeting criteria for both non-inferiority and superiority. Major bleeding occurred in 0.6% vs 4.6% (HR 0.13; p=0.007) in the 1-month DAPT vs 12-month DAPT group, respectively. Ischaemic outcomes were similar in both groups.
