Synergy Between Stent and Drugs to Avoid Ischemic Recurrences After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Summary

The duration of dual antiplatelet treatment (i.e. asprin and clopidogrel) after drug-eluting stent implantation is highly debated. This study will evaluate the value of extending such treatment up to 2 years after the procedure as compared to conventional treatment according to our national health institute guidelines (i.e. minimum 1 month after bare metal stent and 6 months after drug-eluting stent) on the composite endpoint of death, MI or stroke.
