ABSTRACT CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms impact the antiplatelet effect of clopidogrel and associate with ischemic and bleeding risk in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This study aimed to evaluate the association of CYP2C19 and platelet reactivity (PR) with these risks, in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients undergoing PCI ...

Transcatheter devices for left atrial appendage occlusion
Atrial fibrillation (AF) patients are at inherent risk for thromboembolic stroke. Since the left atrial appendage (LAA) is known to be the primary site for thrombus formation in nonvalvular AF, its exclusion may offer an attractive alternative to long ...

Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion and Its Role in Stroke Prevention
Atrial fibrillation is a frequent cardiac arrhythmia and is associated with an increased risk of cardioembolic stroke. The left atrial appendage is a finger-like extension originating from the main body of the left atrium and the main location of ...
