However, the recognition that right ventricular dysfunction is the principle prognostic indicator in the majority of cardiovascular diseases has led to increased interest in achieving a more detailed understanding of the physiology and pathophysiology of the right ventricle and its treatment. Right ventricular function can be affected by numerous mechanisms; one main mechanism is the pressure overload that occurs in pulmonary hypertension, whose most frequent cause in our discipline is, in fact, left heart disease. However, regardless of the etiology of pulmonary hypertension, right ventricular function determines prognosis in affected patients. Correspondingly, many of the therapies employed for left heart failure are also used for right ventricular dysfunction, although firm evidence to support this use is lacking. This article summarizes the pathophysiological basis for the development of right heart failure and reviews current evidence on its treatment when managing congestion is paramount. In addition, the role of neurohormonal modulation is considered and, finally, potential therapeutic strategies currently in development are reviewed.</p><p>Supplement information: this article is part of a supplement entitled “Questions on a new era for heart failure treatment” which is sponsored by Novartis</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34926,"journal":{"name":"Revista Espanola de Cardiologia Suplementos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"56636007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, not all patients have the same risk. Consequently, a number of different thromboembolic riskscores have been developed in recent years (e.g. the CHADS₂, CHA₂DS₂-VASc and ATRIA stroke risk scores). The CHA₂DS₂-VASc score is the one recommended by clinical practice guidelines for optimizing antithrombotic therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation. These same clinical guidelines recommend that both bleeding and thromboembolic risk should be assessed and various risk scores have been proposed for assessing hemorrhagic risk (e.g. the HEMORR₂HAGES, HAS-BLED, ATRIA bleeding risk and ORBIT-AF scores). Currently, however, none has been explicitly recommended in European guidelines. It is vital that the net clinical benefit of antithrombotic therapy is assessed to ensure that the expected advantages of anticoagulation treatment outweigh the harm that could be caused by potential hemorrhages.</p><p>Supplement information: this article is part of a supplement entitled “Treatment of patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: an update”, which is sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34926,"journal":{"name":"Revista Espanola de Cardiologia Suplementos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"56634798","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, if they are to undergo percutaneous coronary intervention, they should receive dual antiplatelet therapy to reduce the incidence of stent thrombosis. Therefore, these patients should be treated with both an oral anticoagulant and an antiplatelet agent. This regimen markedly reduces the risk of thromboembolic events, but is associated with a substantial increase in hemorrhagic complications. Reliable information is available on embolic, hemorrhagic and ischemic risks and on the benefit and potential complications of anticoagulation and antiaggregation in different clinical scenarios. However, percutaneous coronary intervention in these patients raises a number of very specific issues. In addition, the recent publications of studies that have evaluated particular direct oral anticoagulants (i.e. rivaroxaban, dabigatran and apixaban) have provided new information that could significantly alter treatment in these patients. Some of the main topics for debate are whether dual antithrombotic therapy is necessary, whether triple therapy may be preferable, which patients should be treated and for how long, and which antiaggregants should be added. This article highlights the most important evidence-based findings and outlines a number of recommendations, with the aim of identifying the most practical clinical approach in this complex scenario.</p><p>Supplement information: this article is part of a supplement entitled “Treatment of patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: an update”, which is sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34926,"journal":{"name":"Revista Espanola de Cardiologia Suplementos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"56635447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is a growing population that has a complicated prognosis because ischemic and bleeding events can occur over the short, medium and long term. Antithrombotic therapy, without doubt a key consideration in these patients, could have a substantial impact on prognosis. Maintenance therapy with oral anticoagulants is also a priority. Over the last few years, several antithrombotic regimens have been investigated with the principle aim of reducing hemorrhagic events while maintaining efficacy. To this end, studies have focused on: (i) shortening the duration of the dual antiplatelet therapy added to anticoagulation; and (ii) the use of antiplatelet monotherapy, particularly clopidogrel, along with an oral anticoagulant. Recently, the emergence of direct oral anticoagulants has generated great hope and excitement. These new drugs, which have a better safety profile than dicoumarinic anticoagulants, could produce substantial prognostic improvements in this context. The results of three clinical trials of direct oral anticoagulants in these highly complex patients are currently available. Their findings, together with another trial that is now in the follow-up phase, have the potential to substantially modify our usual clinical practice in coming years.</p><p>Supplement information: this article is part of a supplement entitled “Treatment of patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: an update”, which is sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34926,"journal":{"name":"Revista Espanola de Cardiologia Suplementos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"56635242","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This illustrates why we should strengthen medical treatment during the stable clinical phase, which is the scenario for which the greatest amount of solid scientific evidence is available.
