Abstract
AIMS Patients with heart failure and mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction have limited therapeutic options. The ALT-FLOW Early Feasibility Study evaluated safety, haemodynamics and outcomes for the APTURE transcatheter shunt system, a novel left atrium to coronary sinus shunt in these patients. METHODS AND RESULTS Safety and shunt implantation success was evaluated for all 116 enrolled patients. An analysis population of implanted patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >40% (n = 95) was chosen to assess efficacy via paired comparison between baseline and follow-up haemodynamic (3 and 6 months), and echocardiographic, clinical and functional outcomes (6 months and 1 year). Health status and quality of life outcomes were assessed using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire overall summary score (KCCQ-OSS). The primary safety endpoint, major adverse cardiac, cerebral, and renal events, and reintervention through 30 days, occurred in 3/116 patients (2.6%). All implanted shunts were patent at 1 year. In patients with LVEF >40%, the mean (95% confidence interval) reduction in exercise pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) at 20 W was -5.7 (-8.6, -2.9) mmHg at 6 months (p < 0.001). At baseline, 8% had New York Heart Association class I-II status and improved to 68% at 1 year (p < 0.001). KCCQ-OSS at baseline was 39 (35, 43) and improved at 6 months and 1 year by 25 (20-30) and 27 (22-32) points, respectively (both p < 0.0001). No adverse changes in haemodynamic and echocardiographic indices of right heart function were observed at 1 year. Overall, the reduction in PCWP at 20 W and improvement in KCCQ-OSS in multiple subgroups were consistent with those observed for the entire population. CONCLUSIONS In patients with heart failure and LVEF >40%, the APTURE shunt demonstrated an acceptable safety profile with significant sustained improvements in haemodynamic and patient-centred outcomes, underscoring the need for further evaluation of the APTURE shunt in a randomized trial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The hemodynamic effects of transcatheter left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) remain unclear. OBJECTIVE We sought to assess the effect of LAAO on invasive hemodynamics and their correlation with clinical outcomes. METHODS We recorded mean left atrial pressure (mLAP) before and after device deployment. We assessed the prevalence and predictors of mLAP increase after deployment, the association between significant mLAP increase after deployment and 45-day peridevice leak (PDL), and the association between mLAP increase and heart failure (HF) hospitalization. A significant mLAP increase was defined as one equal to or greater than the mean percentage increase in mLAP after deployment (≥28%). RESULTS We included 302 patients (36.4% female; mean age, 75.8 ± 9.5 years). After deployment, mLAP increased in 48% of patients, 38% of whom experienced significant mLAP increase. Independent predictors of mLAP increase were baseline mLAP ≤14 mm Hg, nonparoxysmal atrial fibrillation, and age per 5 years (odds ratios: 3.66 [95% CI, 2.21-6.05], 1.81 [95% CI, 1.08-3.02], and 0.85 [95% CI, 0.73-0.99], respectively). Significant mLAP increase was an independent predictor of 45-day PDL (odds ratio, 2.55; 95% CI, 1.04-6.26). There was no association between mLAP increase and HF hospitalization. CONCLUSION After deployment, mLAP acutely rises in 48% of patients, although this is not associated with increased HF hospitalizations. PDL is more likely to develop at 45 days in patients with significant increase in mLAP after deployment, although most leaks were small (<5 mm). These findings suggest that mLAP increase after deployment is not associated with major safety concerns. Additional studies are warranted to explore the long-term hemodynamic effects of LAAO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Scarce data exist on the evolution of device-related thrombus (DRT) after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC). OBJECTIVES This study sought to assess the incidence, predictors, and clinical impact of persistent and recurrent DRT in LAAC recipients. METHODS Data were obtained from an international multicenter registry including 237 patients diagnosed with DRT after LAAC. Of these, 214 patients with a subsequent imaging examination after the initial diagnosis of DRT were included. Unfavorable evolution of DRT was defined as either persisting or recurrent DRT. RESULTS DRT resolved in 153 (71.5%) cases and persisted in 61 (28.5%) cases. Larger DRT size (OR per 1-mm increase: 1.08; 95% CI: 1.02-1.15; P = 0.009) and female (OR: 2.44; 95% CI: 1.12-5.26; P = 0.02) were independently associated with persistent DRT. After DRT resolution, 82 (53.6%) of 153 patients had repeated device imaging, with 14 (17.1%) cases diagnosed with recurrent DRT. Overall, 75 (35.0%) patients had unfavorable evolution of DRT, and the sole predictor was average thrombus size at initial diagnosis (OR per 1-mm increase: 1.09; 95% CI: 1.03-1.16; P = 0.003), with an optimal cutoff size of 7 mm (OR: 2.51; 95% CI: 1.39-4.52; P = 0.002). Unfavorable evolution of DRT was associated with a higher rate of thromboembolic events compared with resolved DRT (26.7% vs 15.1%; HR: 2.13; 95% CI: 1.15-3.94; P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS About one-third of DRT events had an unfavorable evolution (either persisting or recurring), with a larger initial thrombus size (particularly >7 mm) portending an increased risk. Unfavorable evolution of DRT was associated with a 2-fold higher risk of thromboembolic events compared with resolved DRT.

Abstract
Focused cardiac ultrasound (FoCUS) is becoming standard practice in a wide spectrum of clinical settings. There is limited data evaluating the real-world use of FoCUS with artificial intelligence (AI). Our objective was to determine the accuracy of FoCUS AI-assisted left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) assessment and compare its accuracy between novice and experienced users. In this prospective, multicentre study, participants requiring a transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) were recruited to have a FoCUS done by a novice or experienced user. The AI-assisted device calculated LVEF at the bedside, which was subsequently compared to TTE. 449 participants were enrolled with 424 studies included in the final analysis. The overall intraclass coefficient was 0.904, and 0.921 in the novice (n = 208) and 0.845 in the experienced (n = 216) cohorts. There was a significant bias of 0.73% towards TTE (p = 0.005) with a level of agreement of 11.2%. Categorical grading of LVEF severity had excellent agreement to TTE (weighted kappa = 0.83). The area under the curve (AUC) was 0.98 for identifying an abnormal LVEF (<50%) with a sensitivity of 92.8%, specificity of 92.3%, negative predictive value (NPV) of 0.97 and a positive predictive value (PPV) of 0.83. In identifying severe dysfunction (<30%) the AUC was 0.99 with a sensitivity of 78.1%, specificity of 98.0%, NPV of 0.98 and PPV of 0.76. Here we report that FoCUS AI-assisted LVEF assessments provide highly reproducible LVEF estimations in comparison to formal TTE. This finding was consistent among senior and novice echocardiographers suggesting applicability in a variety of clinical settings.

Abstract
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a management strategy for symptomatic obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Despite advancements, in-stent restenosis (ISR) still imparts a 1-2% annual rate of repeat revascularization-a focus of ongoing translational research. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) provides high resolution virtual histology of stents. Our study evaluates the use of OCT for virtual histological assessment of stent healing in a rabbit aorta model, enabling complete assessment of intraluminal healing throughout the stent. ISR varies based on intra-stent location, stent length, and stent type in a rabbit model-important considerations for translational experimental design. Atherosclerosis leads to more prominent ISR proliferation independent of stent-related factors. The rabbit stent model mirrors clinical observations, while OCT-based virtual histology demonstrates utility for pre-clinical stent assessment. Pre-clinical models should incorporate clinical and stent factors as feasible to maximize translation to clinical practice.

Abstract
Introduction Patients undergoing coronary stent implantation incur a 2% annual rate of adverse events, largely driven by in-stent restenosis (ISR) due to neointimal (NI) tissue proliferation, a process in which smooth muscle cell (SMC) biology may play a central role. Dipyridamole (DP) is an approved therapeutic agent with data supporting improved vascular patency rates. Pre-clinical data supports that DP may enact its vasculoprotective effects via adenosine receptor-A2B (ADOR-A2B). We sought to evaluate the efficacy of DP to mitigate ISR in a pre-clinical rabbit stent model. Methods & Results 24 New Zealand White Rabbits were divided into two cohorts-non-atherosclerosis and atherosclerosis (n = 12/cohort, 6 male and 6 female). Following stent implantation, rabbits were randomized 1:1 to control or oral dipyridamole therapy for 6 weeks followed by optical coherence tomography (OCT) and histology assessment of NI burden and stent strut healing. Compared to control, DP demonstrated a 16.6% relative reduction in NI volume (14.7 ± 0.8% vs. 12.5 ± 0.4%, p = 0.03) and a 36.2% relative increase in optimally healed stent struts (37.8 ± 2.8% vs. 54.6 ± 2.5%, p < 0.0001). Atherosclerosis demonstrated attenuated effect with no difference in NI burden (15.2 ± 1.0% vs. 16.9 ± 0.8%, p = 0.22) and only a 14.2% relative increase in strut healing (68.3 ± 4.1% vs. 78.7 ± 2.5%, p = 0.02). DP treated rabbits had a 44.6% (p = 0.045) relative reduction in NI SMC content. In vitro assessment of DP and coronary artery SMCs yielded dose-dependent reduction in SMC migration and proliferation. Selective small molecule antagonism of ADOR-A2B abrogated the effects of DP on SMC proliferation. DP modulated SMC phenotypic switching with ADOR-A2B siRNA knockdown supporting its role in the observed effects. Conclusion Dipyridamole reduces NI proliferation and improves stent healing in a preclinical model of stent implantation with conventional antiplatelets. Atherosclerosis attenuates the observed effect. Clinical trials of DP as an adjunctive agent may be warranted to evaluate for clinical efficacy in stent outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Inotropic support is commonly used in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS). High-quality data guiding the use of dobutamine or milrinone among this patient population is limited. We compared the efficacy and safety of these two inotropes among patients with low cardiac output states (LCOS) or CS. DATA SOURCES MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched up to February 1, 2023, using key terms and index headings related to LCOS or CS and inotropes. DATA EXTRACTION Two independent reviewers included studies that compared dobutamine to milrinone on all-cause in-hospital mortality, length of ICU stay, length of hospital stay, and significant arrhythmias in hospitalized patients. DATA SYNTHESIS A total of eleven studies with 21,084 patients were included in the meta-analysis. Only two randomized controlled trials were identified. The primary outcome, all-cause mortality, favored milrinone in observational studies only (odds ratio [OR] 1.19 (95% CI, 1.02-1.39; p = 0.02). In-hospital length of stay (LOS) was reduced with dobutamine in observational studies only (mean difference -1.85 d; 95% CI -3.62 to -0.09; p = 0.04). There was no difference in the prevalence of significant arrhythmias or in ICU LOS. CONCLUSIONS Only limited data exists supporting the use of one inotropic agent over another exists. Dobutamine may be associated with a shorter hospital LOS; however, there is also a potential for increased all-cause mortality. Larger randomized studies sufficiently powered to detect a difference in these outcomes are required to confirm these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation (TPVI) is an effective non-surgical treatment method for patients with right ventricle outflow tract dysfunction. The Medtronic Melody and the Edwards Sapien are the two valves approved for use in TPVI. Since TPVI patients are typically younger, even a modest annual incidence of infective endocarditis (IE) is significant. Several previous studies have shown a growing risk of IE after TPVI. There is uncertainty regarding the overall incidence of IE and differences in the risk of IE between the valves. METHODS A systematic search was conducted in the MEDLINE, EMBASE, PubMed, and Cochrane databases from inception to 1 January 2023 using the search terms 'pulmonary valve implantation', 'TPVI', or 'PPVI'. The primary outcome was the pooled incidence of IE following TPVI in Melody and Sapien valves and the difference in incidence between Sapien and Melody valves. Fixed effect and random effect models were used depending on the valve. Meta-regression with random effects was conducted to test the difference in the incidence of IE between the two valves. RESULTS A total of 22 studies (including 10 Melody valve studies, 8 Sapien valve studies, and 4 studies that included both valves (572 patients that used the Sapien valve and 1395 patients that used the Melody valve)) were used for the final analysis. Zero IE incidence following TPVI was reported by eight studies (66.7%) that utilized Sapien valves compared to two studies (14.3%) that utilized Melody valves. The pooled incidence of IE following TPVI with Sapien valves was 2.1% (95% CI: 0.9% to 5.13%) compared to 8.5% (95% CI: 4.8% to 15.2%) following TPVI with Melody valves. Results of meta-regression indicated that the Sapien valve had a 79.6% (95% CI: 24.2% to 94.4%, p = 0.019; R2 = 34.4) lower risk of IE incidence compared to the Melody valve. CONCLUSIONS The risk of IE following TPVI differs significantly. A prudent valve choice in favor of Sapien valves to lower the risk of post-TPVI endocarditis may be beneficial.

Abstract
Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) can arise from several etiologies, including congenital, acquired, and iatrogenic sources. PVS presents insidiously, leading to significant delays in diagnosis. A high index of suspicion and dedicated noninvasive evaluation are key to diagnosis. Once diagnosed, both noninvasive and invasive evaluation may afford further insights into the relative contribution of PVS to symptoms. Treatment of underlying reversible pathologies coupled with transcatheter balloon angioplasty and stenting for persistent severe stenoses are established approaches. Ongoing refinements in diagnostic modalities, interventional approaches, postintervention monitoring, and medical therapies hold promise to further improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Transradial access (TRA) has rapidly emerged as the preferred vascular access site for coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention. Radial artery occlusion (RAO) remains as an important complication of TRA as it precludes future ipsilateral transradial procedures. While intraprocedural anticoagulation has been studied extensively, the definitive role of postprocedural anticoagulation has not yet been established. METHODS AND ANALYSIS The Rivaroxaban Post-Transradial Access for the Prevention of Radial Artery Occlusion trial is a multicentre, prospective, randomised, open-label, blinded-endpoint design study investigating the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban to reduce the incidence of RAO. Eligible patients will undergo randomisation to receive either rivaroxaban 15 mg once daily for 7 days or to no additional postprocedural anticoagulation. Doppler ultrasound to assess radial artery patency will be performed at 30 days. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study protocol has been approved by the Ottawa Health Science Network Research Ethics Board (approval number 20180319-01H). The study results will be disseminated via conference presentations and peer-reviewed publications. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03630055.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a state of end-organ hypoperfusion related to cardiac dysfunction. Current guidelines recommend consideration of inotrope therapy in patients with CS, however no robust data support their use. The purpose of the CAPITAL DOREMI2 trial is to examine the efficacy and safety of inotrope therapy against placebo in the initial resuscitation of patients with CS. METHODS AND DESIGN This is a multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial comparing single-agent inotrope therapy to placebo in patients with CS. A total of 346 participants with Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions class C or D CS will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to inotrope or placebo therapy, which will be administered over a 12-hour period. After this period, participants will continue open-label therapies at the discretion of the treating team. The primary outcome is a composite of all-cause in-hospital death, and, as measured during the 12-hour intervention period, any of: sustained hypotension or high dose vasopressor requirements, lactate greater than 3.5 mmol/L at 6 hours or thereafter, need for mechanical circulatory support, arrhythmia leading to emergent electrical cardioversion, and resuscitated cardiac arrest. All participants will be followed for the duration of their hospitalization, and secondary outcomes will be assessed at the time of discharge. IMPLICATION This trial will be the first to establish the safety and efficacy of inotrope therapy against placebo in a population of patients with CS and has the potential to alter the standard care provided to this group of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) is associated with both mortality and a significant decline in health status. Inter-atrial shunting is increasingly being investigated as a novel therapeutic option. OBJECTIVES The ALT FLOW Early Feasibility Study was designed to evaluate the safety of the Edwards left atrial to coronary sinus APTURETM Transcatheter Shunt System in patients with symptomatic HF. METHODS 18 centers enrolled patients with symptomatic HF with a pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) >15mmHg at rest or 25mmHg during exercise. RESULTS Between May 2018 and September 2022, 87 patients underwent attempted APTURETM shunt implantation. Mean age was 71 years, and 53% were male. At baseline mean LVEF was 59% with 90% of the patients being NYHA III. Device success was achieved in 78 (90%) of patients with no device occlusions or associated adverse events identified after implantation. The primary safety outcome occurred in only 2 (2.3%) patients at 30 days. At 6 months health status improved: 68% of participants achieved NYHA I-II status, with a 23-point improvement (p<0.0001, 95% CI [17, 29]) in the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire overall summary score. Also at 6 months, 20-watt exercise pulmonary capillary wedge pressure was -7mmHg lower (p<0.0001, 95% CI [-11, -4]) without change in right atrial pressure or other right heart function indices. CONCLUSIONS In this single-arm experience, the APTURETM Transcatheter Shunt System in patients with symptomatic HF was observed to be safe and resulted in reduction in PCWP and clinically meaningful improvements in HF symptoms and quality of life indices.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elevated transmitral gradient post transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair (TEER) has been associated with worse outcomes. Whether an elevated baseline transmitral diastolic mean gradient (MG) ≥5 mmHg is associated with hemodynamic outcomes after TEER is unknown. METHODS A total of 164 consecutive patients undergoing TEER at Mayo Clinic between June 2014 and May 2018 were analyzed in this retrospective study. Baseline demographics, as well as clinical, echocardiographic, and procedural data were obtained. Data on direct left atrial pressure (LAP) before and after TEER were recorded. Logistic regression models were constructed to evaluate the association between preprocedure transmitral diastolic mean gradient (pre-MG) and (1) improvement in LAP following TEER, (2) postprocedure transmitral diastolic mean gradient (post-MG). A decrease in LAP post TEER was considered an improvement in hemodynamic response. Pre-MG was categorized as: ≥5 and <5 mmHg. RESULTS Median age of the cohort was 81.5 years (Q1: 76.3, Q3: 87) and 34% were female. At baseline, median transmitral diastolic MG was 4 mmHg (Q1: 3, Q3: 5) and median LAP was 19 mmHg (Q1:16, Q3: 23.5). In a multivariable model, adjusted for age and sex, patients with pre-MG ≥ 5 mmHg were less likely to see an improvement in LAP post TEER (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 0.22, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.09, 0.55; p = 0.001) and more likely to have elevated post-MG (aOR; 7.08, 95% CI: 2.93, 17.13; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Higher pre-MG (≥5 mmHg) was associated with a lower reduction in LAP and higher residual transmitral gradient following TEER suggesting other potential contributors to increased LAP besides mitral regurgitation as a cause of elevated baseline MG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Functional mitral regurgitation (MR) is an important clinical consideration in patients with heart failure. Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) has emerged as a useful therapeutic tool for patients with chronic heart failure, however the role of TEER in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) and MR has not yet been studied in a randomized trial. The Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair for Inotrope Dependent Cardiogenic Shock (CAPITAL MINOS) trial was therefore designed to determine if TEER improves clinical outcomes in the CS population. METHODS AND DESIGN The CAPITAL MINOS trial is an open-label, multi-center randomized clinical trial comparing TEER to medical therapy in patients with CS and MR. A total of 144 patients with Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) class C or D CS and at least 3+ MR will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to TEER or medical therapy alone. The primary outcome will be a composite of in-hospital all-cause mortality, cardiac transplantation, implantation of durable left ventricular assist device, or discharge on palliative inotropic therapy. Patients will be followed for the duration of their index hospitalization for the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes include 6 month mortality. IMPLICATIONS The CAPITAL MINOS trial will determine whether TEER improves outcomes in patients with CS and MR and will be an important step in optimizing treatment for this high-risk patient population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the real-world implementation of intracoronary assessment (ICA) techniques and evaluate their impact on clinical decisions regarding the management of coronary artery disease (CAD) in contemporary practice. BACKGROUND Coronary angiogram is the gold standard used to diagnose vessel stenosis and guide percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI); however, it is limited by its two-dimensional imaging capabilities. ICA techniques like intravascular ultrasound and optical coherence tomography capture the vessel in three-dimensional images. Comparatively, fractional flow reserve provides information on the physiologic significance of coronary stenosis. Both techniques may improve PCI outcomes if they routinely change physician behavior. METHODS Patients who underwent ICA between August 2015 and March 2020 were included in the study. The primary outcome was the clinical impact of ICA on physician clinical decision making of a stenotic vessel. The secondary outcome was the clinical changes that occurred following ICA. RESULTS A total of 1135 patients were included in the study. Physiologic assessment (PA) and image assessment (IA) were performed in 61.4% and 38.6% respectively. Management plans were changed in 38.1% and 23.9% of patients who received PA and IA. Over half of the management change resulted in physicians deciding to not intervene on the stenotic vessel. One-year outcome of these decisions showed no significant increase in major adverse cardiac events (hazard ratio [HR], 0.68; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.40-1.15; p = 0.15) or unplanned revascularization (HR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.35-1.74; p = 0.55) suggesting reliance on PA/IA data did not increase risk. CONCLUSION Selected ICA alters physician management of CAD in one-third of patients being evaluated for revascularization-typically leading to fewer interventions. All cause death is numerally lower in patients that received a change in management. However, the 1-year outcome of these altered decisions does not appear to be significantly different.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction may occur following transcatheter mitral valve replacement in the setting of mitral annular calcification. METHODS We present a case series whereby preemptive septal radiofrequency ablation (RADIO-TMVR) was used to augment the left ventricular outflow tract for transcatheter mitral valve replacement in 4 patients at risk for left ventricular outflow tract obstruction despite alcohol septal ablation. RESULTS All patients were female, average age of 74.9 (68.8-80.4) years. Baseline ejection fraction was 71% (63%-75%). Mean mitral valve area was 1.28 (range, 1.0-1.59) cm2. Mean mitral valve gradient at rest was 9.5 (range, 7-11) mm Hg. New York Heart Association symptoms were III to IV at baseline. Patients underwent preemptive septal radiofrequency ablation to prevent left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with transcatheter mitral valve replacement a range between 69 and 154 days after alcohol septal ablation. Procedural time was 384 (337-424) minutes with a fluoroscopic time of 31 (14-71) minutes. Radiofrequency ablation time was 132 (100-175) minutes. As anticipated, 3 patients developed complete heart block and underwent pacemaker implantation, whereas 1 had a preexisting pacemaker. One patient developed groin hematoma and heart failure exacerbation. There were no peri-procedural deaths. Preemptive septal radiofrequency ablation to prevent left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with transcatheter mitral valve replacement resulted in septal end-diastolic wall thickness reduction compared with baseline (28.6%, 30.4%, 30.3%, and 11.1%) and following alcohol septal ablation (23.1%, 12%, 8.5%). Valve replacement in the setting of mitral annular calcification was performed in all patients 89 (range, 38-45) days after preemptive septal radiofrequency ablation to prevent left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with transcatheter mitral valve replacement. Two patients had concomitant laceration of the anterior mitral leaflet to further augment the neo-left ventricular outflow tract. Postprocedure, New York Heart Association symptoms improved to class I (3 patients) and class II (1 patient). CONCLUSIONS In at-risk individuals, preemptive septal radiofrequency ablation may be an effective strategy at preventing left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with transcatheter mitral valve replacement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inotropic support is widely used in the management of cardiogenic shock (CS). Existing data on the incidence and significance of arrhythmic events in patients with CS on inotropic support is at high risk of bias. METHODS The DObutamine compaREd to MIlrinone (DOREMI) trial randomized patients to receive dobutamine or milrinone in a double-blind fashion. Patients with and without arrhythmic events (defined as arrhythmias requiring intervention or sustained ventricular arrhythmias) were compared to (1) identify factors associated with their occurrence and (2) examine their association with in-hospital mortality and secondary outcomes. RESULTS Ninety-two patients (47.9%) had arrhythmic events, occurring equally with dobutamine and milrinone (P=0.563). The need for vasopressor support at inotrope initiation and a history of atrial fibrillation were positively associated with arrhythmic events whereas predominant right ventricular dysfunction, previous myocardial infarction, and increasing left ventricular ejection fraction were negatively associated with them. Supraventricular arrhythmic events were not associated with mortality (RR 0.97, 95% CI 0.68-1.40, P=0.879) but were positively associated with resuscitated cardiac arrests and hospital length of stay. Ventricular arrhythmic events were positively associated with mortality (RR 1.66, 95% CI 1.13-2.43; P=0.026) and resuscitated cardiac arrests. Arrhythmic events were most often treated with amiodarone (97%) and electrical cardioversion (27%), which were not associated with mortality. CONCLUSIONS Clinically relevant arrhythmic events occur in approximately half of patients with CS treated with dobutamine or milrinone and are associated with adverse clinical outcomes. Five factors may help identify patients most at risk of arrhythmic events.

Abstract
Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) may arise from a variety of conditions and result in major morbidity and mortality. In some patients, pharmacologic therapy may help, but more often in advanced stages, mechanical treatment must be considered. Transcatheter approaches, both balloon angioplasty (BA) and stent implantation, have been applied. Although both are effective, they continue to be limited by restenosis. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid Embase, Ovid Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Ovid Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Scopus were searched for English-language studies in humans published between January 1, 2010, and August 2, 2021. Two independent reviewers screened for studies in which BA or stenting was performed for PVS with reporting of restenosis outcomes, and data were independently extracted. A systematic review was performed, and overall restenosis rates were reported across all 34 included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed using RevMan version 5.4, assessing rates of restenosis and restenosis requiring reintervention. For restenosis rates, 4 studies treated in those studies with available data reported. For restenosis rates, 4 studies treated a total of 340 patients with 579 pulmonary vein interventions (225 with BA and 354 with stenting, mean follow-up 13-69 months). Restenosis requiring repeat intervention was reported in 3 studies, including 301 patients with 495 pulmonary vein interventions (157 with BA and 338 with stenting). Compared with BA, stenting was associated with both a lower risk for restenosis (risk ratio: 0.36; 95% CI: 0.18-0.73; P = 0.005) and a lower risk for restenosis requiring reintervention (RR: 0.36; 95% CI: 0.15-0.86; P = 0.02). For PVS intervention, restenosis and reintervention rates may be improved by stent implantation compared with BA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on the efficacy of transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) are limited. OBJECTIVES We investigated the characteristics and outcomes of consecutive patients with significant MR and CS who underwent TEER. METHODS The STS/ACC/TVT Registry was assessed from November 22, 2013, to December 31, 2021. CS was defined as [i] CS, [ii] inotrope-use or [iii] mechanical circulatory support prior to TEER. Device success was defined as MR reduction of >1 grade and a final MR grade<2+. The primary outcome was the impact of device success on 1-year mortality or heart failure (HF) re-admissions. Cox proportional hazards model were used to report the risk-adjusted association between device success and 1-year outcomes. RESULTS A total of 3,797 patients met the inclusion criteria. Mean age was 73.0±11.9 and 59.5% were male. Mean STS-score (MV repair) was 14.9±15.3. MR etiology was degenerative (53.4%) and functional (27.5%). Device success was achieved in 3,249(85.6%) patients given successful achievement of [i] final MR grade <2+(88.2%) and [ii] MR reduction >1 absolute grade(91.4%). At one-year after TEER, device success was associated with significantly lower all-cause mortality (34.6% vs.55.5%, adjusted-HR 0.49,95%CI 0.41-0.59,p<0.001), and a composite of mortality or HF admissions (29.6% vs. 45.2%, adjusted HR 0.51,95%CI 0.42-0.62,p<0.001). CONCLUSION Successful MR reduction is achievable in most patients with CS and is associated with significantly lower mortality and HF hospitalization at 1-year. Randomized trials assessing TEER in CS are needed to establish this potential therapeutic approach. CONDENSED ABSTRACT We examined the role of transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) in patients with cardiogenic shock and mitral regurgitation (MR). We identified 3,797 patients with cardiogenic shock who underwent TEER between 2013-2021 in the STS/ACC/TVT registry. Mean age was 73.0±11.9 and 59.5% were males. Mean STS was 14.9±15.3. Device success (defined as MR reduction of >1 grade and a final MR <2+) was achieved in 3,249 patients (85.6%). At one-year, device success was associated with lower all-cause mortality (34.6% vs.55.5%,adjusted-HR 0.49,95%CI 0.41-0.58, p<0.001), and a composite of mortality and HF admissions (29.6% vs. 45.2%, adjusted HR 0.51,95%CI 0.42-0.62, p<0.001).

Abstract
This study shows the existence of PAI-1+ PEVs. Approximately 20% of plasma PAI-1 is composed of PAI-1+ PEVs. Elevated PAI-1+ PEV levels were predictive of 1-year major adverse cardiac events in both the discovery and the validation cohort, with larger effect sizes than other clinical biomarkers. High PAI-1+ PEV levels did not affect thrombogenicity. Increasing doses of PAI-1+ PEVs promoted the proinflammatory VSMC state by enhancing proliferation and migration. Inhibition of the PAI-1:low-density lipoprotein–related receptor-1 pathway dampened the proinflammatory VSMC changes. PAI-1+ PEV is a promising biomarker for major adverse cardiac events, and targeting the PAI-1+ PEV–VSMC interaction may offer a novel target to modulate cardiac events in patients with coronary artery disease.
Patients with established coronary artery disease remain at elevated risk of major adverse cardiac events. The goal of this study was to evaluate the utility of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1–positive platelet-derived extracellular vesicles as a biomarker for major adverse cardiac events and to explore potential underlying mechanisms. Our study suggests these extracellular vesicles as a potential biomarker to identify and a therapeutic target to ameliorate neointimal formation of high-risk patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Atrial fibrillation (AF) remains a highly prevalent arrhythmia with significant burden on morbidity and mortality. The impact of AF in the revascularised population remains incompletely described. Given the high prevalence of AF in the revascularised population, we sought to evaluate the incidence and prognosis in patients with pre-existing and new-onset AF following revascularisation. METHODS We used the University of Ottawa Heart Institute Revascularisation Registry to identify patients who underwent revascularisation between August 2015 and March 2020, who were prospectively followed for an average of one year. We conducted a retrospective cohort study analysing the association between AF and clinical outcomes. The primary outcome of interest was 1-year major adverse cardiac events (MACE) defined as a composite of death, myocardial infarction, unplanned revascularisation and cerebrovascular accidents. Moreover, secondary outcomes include the individual components of MACE and bleeding. RESULTS A total of 6704 patients underwent revascularisation and completed 1-year clinical follow-up. Median time to follow-up was 12.8 (IQR 11.2-15.9) months. One-year MACE occurred in 166 (21.8%) and 683 (11.5%) patients in AF and non-AF groups, respectively (adjusted HR, 1.61; 95% CI 1.29 to 2.01; p<0.0001). AF was independently predictive of 1-year mortality, myocardial infarction, unplanned revascularisation, cerebrovascular accident and bleeding. Within 1 year, 299 (4.5%) episodes of new-onset AF was observed. New-onset AF following revascularisation was also associated with 1-year MACE, mortality, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident and unplanned revascularisation. CONCLUSIONS Preprocedural and new-onset AF following revascularisation remains highly predictive 1-year MACE. AF should be considered in addition to traditional risk factors for adverse outcomes following revascularisation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiogenic shock (CS) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality; however, there are limited randomized data evaluating the association between sex and clinical outcomes in patients with CS. Patients with CS enrolled in the DObutamine compaREd with MIlrinone (DOREMI) trial were evaluated in this post-hoc analysis. METHODS The primary outcome was a composite of all-cause mortality, resuscitated cardiac arrest, cardiac transplant or mechanical circulatory support, non-fatal myocardial infarction, transient ischemic attack or stroke, or initiation of renal replacement therapy. Secondary outcomes included the individual components of the primary outcome. We analyzed the primary and secondary outcomes using unadjusted relative risks and performed adjusted analysis for the primary outcome and all-cause mortality using the covariates mean arterial pressure <70 mmHg at inotrope initiation, age, and acute myocardial infarction CS. RESULTS Among 192 participants in the DOREMI study, 70 patients (36 %) were female. The primary outcome occurred in 38 female patients (54 %) compared to 61 male patients (50 %) [adjusted relative risk (aRR) 1.23; 95 % CI 0.78-1.95, p = 0.97]. When stratified by inotrope, there was no difference in the primary outcome comparing females to males receiving dobutamine (RR 1.14; 95 % CI 0.79-1.65, p = 0.50) nor milrinone (RR 1.03; 95 % CI 0.68-1.57, p = 0.87). There was no difference in all-cause mortality comparing females to males (aRR 1.51; 95 % CI 0.78-2.94, p = 0.88). Additionally, there were no differences in any secondary outcomes between males and females (p > 0.05 for all endpoints). CONCLUSION In patients presenting with CS treated with milrinone or dobutamine, no differences in clinical outcomes were observed between males and females.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on the impact of residual peri-device leak after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) are limited. OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to explore the association of peri-device leak with adverse clinical events. METHODS The National Cardiovascular Data Registry LAAO Registry was queried to identify patients undergoing LAAO between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2019. Patients were classified according to leak size on echocardiography at 45 ± 14 days (0 mm, no leak; >0-5 mm, small leak; and >5 mm, large leak). RESULTS A total of 51,333 patients were included, of whom 37,696 (73.4%) had no leak, 13,258 (25.8%) had small leaks, and 379 (0.7%) had large leaks. The proportion of patients on warfarin at 45 days was higher in the large vs small or no leak cohorts (44.9% vs 34.4% and 32.4%, respectively; P < 0.001). At 6 and 12 months, anticoagulant utilization decreased but remained more frequent in patients with large leaks. Thromboembolic and bleeding events were uncommon in all groups. However, compared with patients with no leak, those with small leaks had slightly higher odds of stroke/transient ischemic attack/systemic embolization (adjusted HR: 1.152; 95% CI: 1.025-1.294), major bleeding (HR: 1.11; 95% CI: 1.029-1.120), and any major adverse events (HR: 1.102; 95% CI: 1.048-1.160). There were no significant differences in adverse events between patients with large leaks and patients with small or no leaks. CONCLUSIONS Small (>0-5 mm) leaks after LAAO were associated with a modestly higher incidence of thromboembolic and bleeding events; large leaks (>5 mm) were not associated with adverse events, although higher proportions of these patients were maintained on anticoagulation. Newer devices with improved seal might mitigate the events associated with residual leaks.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (MTEER) is an established therapeutic approach for mitral regurgitation (MR). Functional mitral regurgitation originating from atrial myopathy (A-FMR) has been described. OBJECTIVES We sought to assess the clinical, echocardiographic and hemodynamic considerations in A-FMR patients undergoing MTEER. METHODS From 2014 to 2020, patients undergoing MTEER for degenerative MR (DMR), functional MR (FMR), and mixed MR were assessed. A-FMR was defined by the presence of MR > moderate in severity; left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50%; and severe left atrial (LA) enlargement in the absence of LV dysfunction, leaflet pathology, or LV tethering. The diagnosis of A-FMR (vs. ventricular-FMR [V-FMR]) was confirmed by three independent echocardiographers. Baseline characteristics, procedural outcomes as well as clinical and echocardiographic follow-up are reported. Device success was defined as final MR grade ≤ moderate; MR reduction ≥1 grade; and final transmitral gradient <5 mmHg. RESULTS 306 patients underwent MTEER, including DMR (62%), FMR (19%), and mixed MR (19%). FMR cases included 37 (63.8%) V-FMR and 21 (36.2%) A-FMR. Tricuspid regurgitation (≥ moderate) was higher in A-FMR (80.1%) compared to V-FMR (54%) and DMR (42%). Device success did not significantly differ between A-FMR and V-FMR (57% vs. 73%, p = 0.34) or DMR (57% vs. 64%, p = 1.0). The A-FMR cohort was less likely to achieve ≥3 grades of MR reduction compared to V-FMR (19% vs. 54%, p = 0.01) and DMR (19% vs. 49.7%, p = 0.01). Patients with V-FMR and DMR demonstrated significant reductions in mean left atrial pressure (LAP) and peak LA V-wave, though A-FMR did not (LAP -0.24 ± 4.9, p = 0.83; peak V-wave -1.76 ± 9.1, p = 0.39). In follow-up, echocardiographic and clinical outcomes were similar. CONCLUSIONS In patients undergoing MTEER, A-FMR represents one-third of FMR cases. A-FMR demonstrates similar procedural success but blunted acute hemodynamic responses compared with DMR and V-FMR following MTEER. Dedicated studies specifically considering A-FMR are needed to discern the optimal therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There is emerging evidence supporting the use of the radial artery (RA) as a preferred secondary conduit for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) as it is associated with higher rates of graft patency at 5 years when compared with saphenous vein grafts (SVG). The modified Allen's test (MAT) is traditionally regarded as the standard of care in the assessment of ulnar artery (UA) patency prior to RA harvesting. Unfortunately, due to high false-positive rates, a substantial number of pre-CABG patients are found to have an abnormal MAT despite normal UA patency, resulting in inappropriate exclusion from RA harvesting. The SVG is generally used in its place when this occurs, resulting in potentially lower rates of long-term graft patency. METHODS AND ANALYSIS The CAPITAL iRADIAL-CABG trial is currently enrolling participants 18 years of age or older undergoing CABG for whom the treating physician is considering the use of an RA conduit. Eligible patients will be randomised in a 1:1 fashion to MAT or smartphone-based photoplethysmography application assessment to assess collateral palmar circulation prior to RA harvesting. The primary outcome of the trial is the use of the RA as a conduit during CABG. The primary safety outcome is postoperative palmar ischaemia as determined by clinical assessment or requirement of vascular intervention. Secondary outcomes include vascular complications, early graft failure, need for rescue percutaneous coronary intervention during the index hospitalisation and a composite cardiovascular outcome of myocardial infarction, stroke and cardiovascular death prior to discharge from hospital. A total of 236 participants are planned to be recruited. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study was approved by the Ottawa Heart Science Network Research Ethics Board (approval number 20180865-01H). The study results will be disseminated via conference presentations and peer-reviewed publications. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03810729.

Abstract
Background Recent studies have shown improved outcomes in cardiogenic shock through protocols directed toward early identification and initiation of mechanical circulatory support. However, objective therapeutic targets—based on clinical and/or laboratory data—to guide real‐time clinical decision making are lacking. Lactate clearance has been suggested as a potential treatment target because of its independent association with mortality. Methods and Results In a post hoc analysis of the DOREMI (Dobutamine Compared to Milrinone in the Treatment of Cardiogenic Shock) trial—a randomized, double‐blind, controlled trial comparing milrinone to dobutamine in the treatment of cardiogenic shock—we used prospectively collected lactate data to evaluate lactate clearance as a surrogate marker for in‐hospital mortality. In total, 82 (57.7%) patients survived to hospital discharge (survivors). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, complete lactate clearance, percentage lactate clearance, and percentage lactate clearance per hour were independently associated with survival beginning as early as 8 hours after enrollment. Complete lactate clearance was the strongest predictor of survival at all time points, with odds ratios ranging between 2.46 (95% CI, 1.09–5.55; P=0.03) at 8 hours to 5.44 (95% CI, 2.14–13.8; P<0.01) at 24 hours. Conclusions Complete lactate clearance is a strong and independent predictor of in‐hospital survival in patients with cardiogenic shock. Together with previously published data, these results further support the validity of lactate clearance as an appropriate surrogate for mortality and as a potential therapeutic target in future cardiogenic shock trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Though infrequent, incomplete left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) may result from residual leaks. Percutaneous closure has been described though data is limited. METHODS We compiled a registry from four centers of patients undergoing percutaneous closure of residual leaks following LAAC via surgical means or with the Watchman device. Leak severity was classified as none (no leak), mild (1-2 mm), moderate (3-4 mm), or severe (≥5 mm). Procedural and clinical success was defined as the elimination of leak or mild residual leak at the conclusion of the procedure or follow-up, respectively. RESULTS Of 72 (age 72.2 ± 9.2 years; 67% male) patients, 53 had undergone prior LAAC using the Watchman device and 19 patients surgical LAAC. Mean CHADS2 -VA2 Sc score was 4.0 ± 1.8. The median leak size was 5 mm, range: 2-13). A total of 13 received Amplatzer Vascular Plug-II, 18 received Amplatzer Duct Occluder-II and 40 patients received coils. One underwent closure using a 21 mm-Watchman. Procedural success was 94%. Zero surgical and nine Watchman patients (13%) had a residual leak at procedural-end (five mild, three moderate, and one severe)-only one patient had no reduction in leak size. Overall leak size reduction was 94%. Two (3%) had intraoperative pericardial effusion. There were no device embolizations, device-related thrombi, or procedural deaths. Clinical success was maintained at 94%. Two had cerebrovascular accidents-at 2 days (transient ischemic attack) and 10 months postprocedure. Two had major bleeding outside the 30-day periprocedural window. CONCLUSION Percutaneous closure of residual leaks following left atrial appendage closure is feasible and associated with good outcomes. The procedural risk appears to be satisfactory.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is performed to relieve symptoms of angina. Identifying patients who will benefit symptomatically after PCI would be clinically advantageous but robust predictors of symptom resolution are ill-defined. METHODS Prospective indexing of baseline angina status, clinical, and procedural characteristics were collected over a 5-year period in a regional revascularization registry. At 1-year follow-up, angina resolution was assessed. We performed a stepwise selection algorithm to identify predictors of persistent angina at 1 year. RESULTS A total of 777 patients were included in the analysis and the median follow-up was 387 days. Mean age of the cohort was 66.6 years, 23.8% were female and 23.3% had baseline Canadian Cardiovascular Society class 3 or 4 angina. Overall, 13.1% had persistent angina. The only predictor of persistent angina was the presence of a residual chronic total occlusion after PCI with odds ratio of 3.06 (95% confidence interval, 1.81-5.17). Residual stenoses 50-69%, 70-89%, and 90-99% were not associated with residual angina after PCI. CONCLUSION Most patients achieved symptom resolution with PCI and optimal medical therapy. A residual chronic total occlusion after PCI was associated with persistent angina. Other degrees of stenoses were not associated with persistent angina.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We sought to evaluate the association between the institutional volume of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) for pulmonary embolism and in-hospital mortality. BACKGROUND CDT is an increasingly utilized therapy in patients with intermediate/high-risk PE. However, data on the relationship between hospital volume and clinical outcomes remain limited. METHODS Patients who underwent CDT between October 1, 2015, and March 31, 2021, were identified in the Vizient Clinical Database. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcome were major complications, length of stay, and cost. Hospitals were dichotomized into <8 and ≥ 8 cases/year following restricted cubic spline analysis. RESULTS A total of 6741 CDT procedures at 171 hospitals were included with a median annual hospital volume of 4.1 cases (IQR = 1.9-8.3). A total of 44 hospitals (25.7%) were classified as high-volume ( ≥ 8 cases/year) and performed 60.9% of all CDT cases. CDT at high-volume centers was associated with lower in-hospital mortality (6.0% vs. 11.3%; p < 0.0001). Stroke and bleeding rates were similar, but pulmonary complications were more frequent at low-volume centers. CDT at high volume centers was associated with a significantly shorter length of stay and lower cost. The association between high CDT volume and in-hospital mortality persisted after adjustment for demographics (odds ratio [OR] = 0.49, [0.41-0.58]), demographics and risk factors (OR = 0.52 [0.44-0.62]), and demographics, risk factors, and troponin elevation (OR = 0.51 [0.40-0.66]). CONCLUSION In a large contemporary cohort of patients undergoing CDT in the United States, low annual institutional volume of CDT was associated with higher in-hospital mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) has emerged as a feasible alternative to redo surgical mitral valve replacement (SMVR) in patients with degenerated mitral prostheses, with limited comparative data. METHODS We compared mid-term outcomes in patients with degenerated mitral valve prostheses treated with TMVR or redo SMVR. The primary endpoint was survival at 5 years of follow-up. RESULTS From 2014 to 2020, 215 patients presented with degenerated mitral valve prostheses. Of whom 86 (40%) were treated with TMVR (75[87%] valve-in-valve and 11[13%] valve-in-ring), while 129 patients (60%) underwent SMVR. The TMVR cohort was older (p < 0.0001), more symptomatic (p = 0.0003) and had more chronic lung disease (p = 0.02), worse renal function (p = 0.02) and higher right ventricular systolic pressures (p < 0.0001). Thirty-day mortality was lower with TMVR versus SMVR (2.4% vs. 10.2%, OR4.69 [95% CI 1.25-30.5], p = 0.04) with probability of mortality at 1, 2, and 5 years being 14.7% versus 17.5%, 24.5% versus 20.7%, and 49.9% versus 34.0%, respectively. Mode of prosthesis degeneration, baseline hemodynamics, and valve selection did not appreciably impact outcomes. CONCLUSIONS TMVR for degenerated mitral prostheses is associated with better early survival compared to SMVR despite a greater burden of comorbidities. In contrast, 5 year survival rates appear more favorable with SMVR, which may reflect the lower baseline risk of this population. Clinical, hemodynamic, and echocardiographic follow-up support the mid-term durability of TMVR for degenerated mitral prostheses. Further dedicated studies, however, are required to optimize outcomes in this challenging patient cohort and to navigate the choice of approach for each individual patient.

Abstract
The optimal length of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains debated. Current guidelines recommend individualized treatment with consideration of risk scores. We sought to evaluate the degree of agreement in treatment recommendations and the ability to predict ischemic and bleeding complications of the PRECISE-DAPT (predicting bleeding complications in patients undergoing stent implantation and subsequent dual antiplatelet therapy) and DAPT scores. Consecutive patients receiving 12 months of DAPT were grouped based on score treatment recommendation at the time of PCI: PRECISE-DAPT prolonged or shortened (PRECISE DAPT <25 vs ≥25) and DAPT prolonged or shortened (DAPT ≥2 vs <2). One-year ischemic and bleeding outcomes were compared for each group. In 451 patients, the PRECISE-DAPT and DAPT score recommendations were concordant in 56.7% of patients (Cohen's kappa for agreement of k = 0.139, 95% confidence interval 0.065 to 0.212). There was no difference in composite major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events between patients with high versus low PRECISE-DAPT or DAPT scores. In patients with a high PRECISE-DAPT score versus a low score, there was an increased incidence of 1-year all-cause mortality (2.13% vs 0%, p = 0.04) and an increase in bleeding (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium ≥3a: 17.0% vs 2.8%; p <0.001; Bleeding Academic Research Consortium 3b/c and 5: 8.5% vs 1.4%; p = 0.001). There were no differences in rates of mortality or bleeding for patients with high versus low DAPT scores. In conclusion, when applied at the baseline, the PRECISE-DAPT and DAPT scores frequently make discordant DAPT duration recommendations. The PRECISE-DAPT, but not the DAPT score, demonstrated associations with all-cause mortality and bleeding in patients prescribed 12 months of DAPT after PCI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To ensure compliance with optimal secondary prevention strategies and document the residual risk of patients following revascularization, we established a postrevascularization clinic for risk-factor optimization at 1 year, with outcomes recorded in a web-based registry. Although coronary revascularization can reduce ischemia, medical treatment of coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the cornerstone of ongoing risk reduction. While standardized referral pathways and protocols for revascularization are prevalent and well studied, post-revascularization care is often less formalized. PATIENTS AND METHODS The University of Ottawa Heart Institute is a tertiary-care center providing coronary revascularization services. From 2015 to 2019, data were prospectively recorded in the CAPITAL revascularization registry, and patient-level procedural, clinical, and outcome data are collected in the year following revascularization. Major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) was defined as death, myocardial infarction, unplanned revascularization, or cerebrovascular accident. Kaplan-Meier curves were generated to evaluate time-to-event data for clinical outcomes by risk-factor management, and comparisons were performed using log-rank tests and reported by hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS A cohort of 4147 patients completed 1-year follow-up after revascularization procedure that included 3462 undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), 589 undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), and 96 undergoing both PCI and CABG. In the year following revascularization (median follow-up 13.3 months-interquartile range [IQR]: 11.9-16.5) 11% of patients experienced MACE, with female patients being disproportionately at risk. Moreover, 47.7% of patients had ≥2 risk factors (diabetes, dyslipidemia, overweight, active smoker) at the time of follow-up, with 45.0% of patients with diabetes failing to achieve target hemoglobin (Hb) A1c, 54.8% of smokers continuing to smoke, and 27.1% of patients failing to achieve guideline-directed lipid targets. CONCLUSION Patients who have undergone revascularization procedures remain at elevated risk for MACE, and inadequately controlled risk factors are prevalent in follow-up. This highlights the need for aggressive secondary prevention strategies and implementation of programs to optimize postrevascularization care.
