NEW! 2025 US guidelines for the management of ACS (STEMI and NSTE-ACS) just released. Intravascular imaging guidance with OCT or IVUS during PCI in ACS is now recommended for left main or complex lesions with a class IA recommendation.

There is an interesting rationale behind studies testing strategies that exclude oral anticoagulation during the first month in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing PCI, such as MATRIX-2 (evaluating single antiplatelet therapy) and WOEST-3 (evaluating DAPT). 1/4

For instance, if MATRIX-2 meets its primary endpoint, we might eventually manage these patients with one month of ticagrelor monotherapy, followed by DOAC monotherapy. That would be a significant simplification, wouldn’t it? We will see if this turns out to be the case. 4/4
