No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Subjects with acute coronary syndromes scheduled for cardiac catheterization will be enrolled in this study. Subjects that are to be treated clinically with coronary artery stenting will be randomized to receive a loading dose of clopidogrel versus ticagrelor after diagnostic angiography but prior to stenting. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) will be performed after stenting and the presence of blood clots inside the new stent will be measured and compared between the groups.
