Transcatheter Interventions Online 2023 – Keynote & Debate

The Keynote & Debate session, part of Transcatheter Interventions Online 2023 commences with an enlightening keynote lecture by Dr Roxana Mehran (Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, US) which highlights the importance of tailoring cardiac interventions to specific genders. Following the keynote, Dr Holger Thiele (Leipzig Heart Center in Leipzig, DE), presents a thought-provoking debate on the topic, 'Can We Walk Away From Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After PCI in CCS and ACS?'. This debate sets the base for a sparked discussion around the optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with stable coronary syndrome and acute coronary syndrome.
