NEJM — Recent Cardiology Articles- Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis in Intermediate-High–Risk Pulmonary Embolism August 31, 2026Catheter-directed thrombolysis led to a lower risk of death, recurrent pulmonary embolism, or cardiorespiratory decompensation or collapse at 7 days than anticoagulation alone in intermediate-high–risk acute pulmonary embolism.
- Immediate Ambulatory Electrocardiographic Monitoring in Syncope August 31, 2026Among patients with syncope that remained unexplained after evaluation in the ED, immediate initiation of 14-day ECG monitoring did not result in significantly fewer patient-reported syncope episodes at 1 year than standard care.
- Timing of PCI in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic-Valve Implantation August 30, 2026In patients with severe aortic stenosis and coronary artery disease, a strategy of transcatheter aortic-valve implantation before percutaneous coronary intervention was noninferior to PCI before TAVI for major clinical events at 1 year.
- Tricuspid-Valve Intervention in Heart Failure August 30, 2026In patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation and heart failure, transcatheter tricuspid-valve repair plus medical therapy was superior to medical therapy alone in reducing hospitalizations for heart failure and deaths.
- Pulmonary Denervation for Heart Failure–Related Pulmonary Hypertension August 30, 2026In pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease and heart failure, pulmonary-artery denervation reduced clinical worsening and recurrent heart failure events as compared with guideline-directed medical therapy alone.
