Direct Oral Anticoagulants Versus Vitamin K Antagonists After Mitral Valve Transcatheter Edge‐to‐Edge Repair in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: A Single‐Center Observational Study by Jan‐Hendrik Schipper, Anne‐Sophie Sommer, Richard Julius Nies, Clemens Metze, Max Maria Meertens, Jonas Wörmann, Sebastian Dittrich, Jan‐Hendrik van den Bruck, Arian Sultan, Jakob Lüker, Daniel Steven, Christopher Hohmann, Roman Pfister, Stephan Baldus, Ingo Eitel, Christian Frerker, Tobias Schmidt

“…Background Mitral valve transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has emerged as a viable therapy option in patients with severe mitral regurgitation and high surgical risk. Although atrial fibrillation is common among patients undergoing M‐TEER, the optimal anticoagulatory treatment after the intervention is unknown. …”
