Baseline Thrombocytopenia
Conditions
Brief summary
The use of clopidogrel as part of DAPT will be associated with lower bleeding rates compared to ticagrelor in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia requiring Percutaneous intervention (PCI )with Drug Eluting Stent (DES) or Bare Metal Stint(BMS).
Detailed description
Patients with thrombocytopenia are at an increased risk of both bleeding and ischemic events following PCI; however, there is a paucity of data on how to optimally manage these risks. Data indicates that ticagrelor is associated with reduced ischemic outcomes with an accompanying increased risk of bleed in the broader population. This study will assess P2Y12 agent selection in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia to determine if one better balances risks of ischemic and bleeding events following coronary intervention

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of bleeding | 1 year | To evaluate the difference in bleeding rates in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia maintained on DAPT with clopidogrel compared to patients maintained on DAPT with ticagrelor. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of ischemic events | 1 year | number of ischemic events |
| All-cause mortality | 1 year | all-cause mortality in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia maintained on DAPT with clopidogrel compared to patients maintained on DAPT with ticagrelor. |
| Duration of DAPT | 1 year | To evaluate the difference in rate of ischemic events and all-cause mortality in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia maintained on DAPT with clopidogrel compared to patients maintained on DAPT with ticagrelor. |
