Ultrashort vs Standard-Duration Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients Undergoing PCI: A Meta-Analysis

Background: The efficacy and safety of ultrashort (≤1-month) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) followed by antiplatelet monotherapy remain uncertain in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients.Objectives: This study sought to compare ultrashort vs standard-duration DAPT in patients with ACS undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials until February… Continue reading Ultrashort vs Standard-Duration Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients Undergoing PCI: A Meta-Analysis

Three vs 12-month #DAPT after implantation of biodegradable-polymer sirolimus-eluting coronary #stent : a randomised clinical trial

Early discontinuation of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) within 3 months after implantation of drug-eluting stents may reduce bleeding risk without increasing ischaemic events. This study aimed to assess whether 3-month DAPT is as safe as the conventional 12-month regimen in patients treated with Firehawk stents, which have demonstrated 99.9% reendothelialisation at 3 months by optical… Continue reading Three vs 12-month #DAPT after implantation of biodegradable-polymer sirolimus-eluting coronary #stent : a randomised clinical trial
