Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: In the present study we aim to compare the adenosine induced coronary dilatation after the loading dose of Ticagrelor (180 mg) versus Prasugrel (60 mg) in patients with ACS (acute coronary syndromes) undergoing PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention).;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): To investigate the enhancement of Adenosine-induced coronary vasodilatation in terms of max-CFR after the loading dose of Ticagrelor (180 mg) either Prasugrel (60 mg) in patients with ACS undergoing PCI, at gradually increasing doses of adenosine.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: About 3 hours after the loading dose | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): To assess if higher plasmatic concentrations of Ticagrelor are related to higher CFR at gradually increasing doses of Adenosine;;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: About 2-4 hours after PCI | — |
