Shaping the Next Chapter: EAPCI Vision 2026-2028
At #ESCCongress our SoMe Ambassadors met with the new EAPCI Board to capture their vision for the mandate ahead. Core mission of the new mandate: education, mutual support and strengthening a dynamic community

A home for all interventional cardiologists 🏠

Key takeaways from the interview with President Prof Fabien Praz: 

🌍 A welcoming Home, fostering an inclusive and supportive environment where every interventional cardiologist belongs
🎓 Driven by education, empowering our young, growing our association through the continuous development of the #EducationalPathway and of interactive opportunities like #EAPCIJournalClubs
🔬 Reflecting on a fantastic #ESCCongress, highlighted by packed hands-on training sessions and practice-changing trial data
 Watch the full interview to see where we are heading next and mark your calendars as we look forward to #EAPCI27! 👇

In this subanalysis of the SUMMIT study, conducted during our 2023 Everest expedition, we found a progressive increase in ventricular ectopic activity with increasing altitude. #JACCAdvances authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti…

Platelet counts may serve as a reliable marker for predicting subclinical leaflet thrombosis after TAVI: a normal platelet count at any time between TAVI and hospital discharge may effectively exclude the presence of subclinical leaflet thrombosis. doi.org/10.1093/ehjvshd/xwag…

Bicuspid anatomy can pose a significant challenge for TAVI: the combination of a substantial AVC calcium burden and a prominent raphe may define a particularly high risk phenotype. #JACCImaging authors.elsevier.com/a/1mo9j…

In this RCT in TAVI patients, treatment with colchicine was associated with a lower risk of new-onset rhythm disturbances and subclinical leaflet thrombosis compared with placebo. The inflammatory response to TAVI may represent a novel therapeutic target. rdcu.be/eQ5oO

In this analysis of >1,000 TAVI patients, we demonstrate that underexpansion of balloon-expandable transcatheter aortic valves, as assessed by fluoroscopy, is associated with an increased risk of hemodynamic valve deterioration at mid-term follow-up. authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti…
