Management of Left Ventricular Thrombus

[...]this study is not a prospective, randomized trial, thus limiting the generalizability of the data. [...]although reporting echocardiogram data adds validity to the study, the sensitivity of transthoracic echocardiogram for LVT is as low as 29%.1 Medication compliance and time within therapeutic international normalized ratio range are not available in this study, which may affect medication efficacy. [...]the reported study was underpowered to compare different DOACs with each other. Because of the incidence and heterogeneity of LVT, such a trial will prove challenging and costly.
