Video Summary
The conference on adult congenital heart disease featured various insightful presentations. Dr. Chung Cheh-Mao highlighted a study comparing NOAC and Warfarin for stroke prevention in this population. The study, using data from TRINETX, found NOAC significantly reduces all-cause mortality and major bleeding, suggesting a potential preference for NOAC over Warfarin in this group.<br /><br />Another noteworthy presentation by Anushka Desai from Georgetown University emphasized the complications of catheter ablation in adults with congenital heart disease. The study used the National Inpatient Sample Database and observed that these patients face higher in-hospital mortality and incidents of stroke and cardiac arrest post-procedure, underscoring the need for further safety evaluations.<br /><br />Further exploration was provided by Dr. Ihab Lantus, focusing on inducible ventricular tachycardia in tetralogy of Fallot patients prior to pulmonary valve replacement, while Dr. Jeremy Moore discussed the predictive value of conduction velocity for inducible VT in this cohort.<br /><br />Finally, Dr. Frédéric Sacher's study on the role of 3D imaging in VT ablation in congenital heart disease patients suggested that advanced imaging techniques could enhance the pre-procedural planning by identifying potential VT isthmuses effectively. Each presentation underscored significant strides in managing complex congenital heart anomalies in adult patients.
