Gene Therapy

Gene Therapy

Gene therapy is a technique where a gene is inserted into a person’s cells to prevent or treat a serious disease. The added gene may be a healthy version of the gene that is mutated in the patient, or it could be a different gene that inactivates or compensates for the patient’s disease-causing gene. For example, in patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) due to a mutation in the gene for the enzyme adenosine deaminase, a functioning version of the gene can be...

Group Therapy

Group Therapy

Group therapy is a sociocultural approach to psychological treatment, where individuals with shared psychological challenges come together under the guidance of a mental health professional. This therapeutic modality offers unique opportunities for individuals to connect, share, and grow within the context of a supportive group. By fostering mutual understanding and collaboration, group therapy can address a range of psychological concerns effectively, often complementing or surpassing the...

Behavior Therapy

Behavior Therapy

Behavior therapy incorporates diverse techniques rooted in classical conditioning principles to address maladaptive behaviors and anxiety disorders. These methods aim to reduce avoidance behaviors, foster adaptive coping mechanisms, and alter associations between stimuli and responses, making them effective in a wide range of therapeutic contexts.
Exposure therapy is a cornerstone of behavioral treatment for anxiety disorders. It involves systematic exposure to feared stimuli, either in real...

Drug Therapy

Drug Therapy

The advent of drug therapy has profoundly shaped modern mental health care, providing targeted treatments for a range of psychological disorders. Psychotherapeutic drugs, classified into antianxiety, antidepressant, and antipsychotic medications, address symptoms across anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and schizophrenia. While these medications have transformed patient outcomes, they require careful management due to their potential side effects and limitations.

Cognitive Therapy

Cognitive Therapy

Cognitive therapy, pioneered by Aaron T. Beck in the 1960s, is a structured approach to addressing psychological distress by focusing on the influence of thoughts on emotions and behaviors. All cognitive therapies involve the basic assumption that human beings have control over their feelings, and that how individuals feel about something depends on how they think about it. Unlike psychoanalytic methods that delve into unconscious processes or humanistic approaches emphasizing...

Electroconvulsive Therapy

Electroconvulsive Therapy

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), or shock therapy, remains a critical biomedical intervention for severe, treatment-resistant depression. While its origins can be traced back to Hippocrates' observations that malaria-induced convulsions alleviated mental illness, modern ECT has evolved significantly from its earlier, more primitive applications. First introduced in 1938 by Ugo Cerletti and his colleagues, ECT involves inducing controlled seizures using electrical currents. In its early...

Summary

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) patients face stroke risks. Current dual antiplatelet therapy lacks strong evidence, prompting research into anticoagulants like NOACs for better outcomes.

Background:

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) is increasingly used for severe aortic stenosis, especially in high-risk patients.
Cerebral embolism is a significant concern impacting prognosis and quality of life after TAVR.
Current empiric antithrombotic therapy (Dual Antiplatelet Therapy - DAPT) lacks robust evidence regarding optimal choice and duration.

Purpose of the Study:

To review evidence on stroke risk in TAVR patients.
To evaluate the current and future role of antithrombotic therapy after TAVR.
To explore the potential of novel anticoagulants in TAVR patients.

Main Methods:

Review of existing literature on TAVR, stroke risk, and antithrombotic strategies.
Analysis of current guidelines and emerging research on antithrombotic treatments.
Discussion of ongoing clinical trials investigating Non-Vitamin K Oral Anticoagulants (NOACs).

Main Results:

The optimal antithrombotic regimen post-TAVR remains uncertain.
Dual Antiplatelet Therapy (DAPT) is standard but lacks randomized trial support.
Undetected atrial fibrillation is common in TAVR patients, suggesting a role for anticoagulation.

Conclusions:

Further research, including randomized trials, is needed to establish optimal antithrombotic therapy post-TAVR.
Non-Vitamin K Oral Anticoagulants (NOACs) show promise, particularly in patients with atrial fibrillation.
Balancing stroke prevention with bleeding risk is crucial for TAVR patient management.
