Rationale and design of SCOPE trial: a prospective, multicentre, open-label, randomised controlled trial to evaluate the overall efficacy and safety of a short-term anticoagulation strategy versus conventional single antiplatelet therapy in patients with severe aortic stenosis without indications for anticoagulation or dual antiplatelet therapy post-transcatheter aortic valve replacement

BMJ Open
Introduction While transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become a well-established standard of care for patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis, the optimal antithrombotic strategy post-TAVR remains a subject of debate, particularly ...
