Brief summary

This pilot study aims to identify patients at moderate to high risk for peri-procedural (type 4) myocardial infarction or injury after after undergoing an elective coronary intervention (PCI) as measured by high sensitivity troponin T, who might benefit from more potent antiplatelet therapy.
