Assessment of Coagulation and Thrombocyte Function After Termination of Ticagrelor

NCT02297971 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 25

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

When ticagrelor should be discontinued prior to elective surgery is unclear. The risks of bleeding when it is continued peri-operatively have to be weighed against the risk of coronary artery thrombosis when stopped. This study aims to assess coagulation and thrombocyte function every other day in patients who are taking ticagrelor after coronary artery stents and discontinue therapy at the end of one year.
