PREMIER Registry: Mortality After MI by Thienopyridine Use
Summary: DES v. BMS • DES reduce the risk of restenosis but, due to incomplete endothelialization, there is a small increased risk of late stent thrombosis. • This can be reduced by prolonged dual anti-platelet therapy.
Spertus Circulation 2006 (113): 2803
Considerations: DES v. BMS • Can and will the patient take dual antiplatelet therapy reliably? • Any known bleeding problems that may affect compliance? • Planned surgery? • Risk of restenosis (DM, Renal Failure, small vessels, long lesions)? • CABG?
Considerations: d/c Plavix • Duration of therapy? • Complexity of anatomy (multiple stents, overlapping, bifurcation, LM/prox LAD)? • Caliber of vessels stented? • Type of stent? • Minimize time off Plavix (5 d), resume as soon as possible with loading dose. • Do not stop ASA if possible.

Recommendations: ACC/AHA Scientific Statement - 2007 • Optimal duration of dual anti-platelet therapy – At least on year. Defer elective surgery at least one year. • Consider longer duration of therapy in high risk patients (e.g. off-label uses (>60%). • Stent thrombosis in 29% with early d/c. Mortality from ST: 20-45%. MI in up to 70%.
ACC/AHA Recommendations • Consider doing surgery on ASA/Plavix • Continue aspirin, if possible. • Resume D.A.P.T. as soon as possible after surgery (loading dose). • Do surgery in a facility with available cath lab with PCI capability. • Monitor patient Grines,Circ(2007)115:813-818
