Best of ESC Congress 2023
More than 30,000 health professionals from 175 countries attended this year's meeting, 24,000 onsite and 6,000 online. Novel findings were revealed in more than 3,750 abstracts and clinical cases presented by scientists from 86 countries.
Practice-changing research was presented throughout the congress, with major new findings in the Hot Lines. The Hot Line programme kicked off with STEP-HFpEF Next up was NOAH-AFNET 6, which showed that anticoagulants cause bleeding without preventing stroke in patients with atrial high-rate episodes (AHRE), but without electrocardiogram (ECG)-diagnosed atrial fibrillation. Rounding off Hot Line session 1 was COP-AF, a trial in patients undergoing major non-cardiac thoracic surgery, which found that colchicine does not significantly reduce perioperative atrial fibrillation or myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery.
