Thrombotic vs. Bleeding Events of Interruption of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy within 12 Months among Patients with Stent-Driven High Ischemic Risk Definition following PCI by Hao-Yu Wang, Bo Xu, Chen-Xi Song, Chang-Dong Guan, Li-Hua Xie, Yan-Yan Zhao, Zhong-Xing Cai, Sheng Yuan, Ke-Fei Dou

“…In patients undergoing high-risk PCI, interruption of DAPT in the first 12 months occurred infrequently and was associated with a significantly higher adjusted risk of major adverse cardiovascular events and net adverse clinical events. 2017 ESC stent-driven high ischemic risk criteria may help clinicians to discriminate patient selection in the use of long-term DAPT when the ischemic risk certainly overcomes the bleeding one.…”
