Summary

Gastrointestinal bleeding is blood loss in the digestive tract, classified as upper or lower. Ischemic heart disease is due to blocked heart arteries. Antiplatelet drugs help prevent heart attacks but increase GI bleeding risk, especially when used together as dual therapy. This study aims to compare the prevalence and risk of gastrointestinal bleeding in ischemic heart disease patients on single versus dual antiplatelet therapy, and to explore strategies for reducing gastrointestinal bleeding in these patients, enhancing treatment safety without compromising cardiovascular protection.
