The optimal antiplatelet strategy after early DAPT discontinuation post-AMIS remains unresolved.
This Viewpoint challenges current practice and underscores the need for head-to-head trials comparing aspirin vs ticagrelor monotherapy to refine post-PCI management ow.ly/tETh50WZRnt #cardiosky

In this large, propensity-matched cohort of TAVI patients, only invasively measured postprocedural aortic gradients—not echocardiography-derived gradients—were independently associated with 30-day, 1- and 2-year mortality.
