Comparing anticoagulation therapy alone versus anticoagulation plus single antiplatelet drug therapy after transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with an indication for anticoagulation: a systematic review and meta-analysis

ConclusionIn patients with an indication for chronic anticoagulation, post-TAVI antithrombotic therapy with OAC alone compared to OAC plus SAPT may be not significantly different in reducing all-cause mortality and ischemic stroke, but has an important benefit in a significantly lower risk of all bleeding and major and/life-threatening bleeding events.
