👵👴Frail and older adults remain underrepresented in revascularization trials. @HrisKirov presents rationale and design of CAB-AGE I Trial, with frailty as primary outcome after PCI vs CABG. Potential CAB-AGE II will target 5-yr hard clinical endpoints. @ToDoenst @ISCAScoronary

🚀 Largest study on Epic Supra 29 bioprosthesis! Evaluated in 360 patients, including smaller annuli, with great outcomes: low gradients (11.3 mmHg), 1.4% reinterventions, and promising valve-in-valve potential. Stay tuned! #CardiacSurgery #AorticValve
