In patients with coronary artery disease, dual antiplatelet therapy (acetylsalicylic acid and a P2Y12-receptor antagonist) is a commonly used method because of its excellent antithrombotic effect. In particular, in patients with acute myocardial infarction, who receive coronary angiography as an emergency, the dual antiplatelet is used immediately before the test to prevent and test further clot formation, regardless of whether or not the patient had previously taken dual antiplatelet. Ticagrelor, a direct-acting and reversible ADP receptor antagonist, was introduced in Denmark in 2013 and is now the most commonly used ADP receptor antagonist in the treatment of ACS. Compared to its predecessor clopidogrel, the pharmacokinetic profil of ticagrelor is more predictable, demonstrating a faster onset of action and a more consistent platelet inhibition. However, because of the excellent antithrombotic effect and increased bleeding potential, it is recommended that major bleeding, such as OPCAB or CABG surgery, be expected with a high probability, and in case of fatal surgery, the drug should be discontinued for 5 days. Most patients who receive emergency coronary heart surgery after undergoing coronary angiography as an emergency due to an acute myocardial infarction, it take approximately 24-48 hours to undergo surgery after examination. In fact, there have been reports of large-scale cross-country studies that do not increase bleeding risk compared to 5 days until 3 days after ticagrelor is stopped. Therefore, this study aimed to retrospectively analyze the bleeding tendency by analyzing the records of patients using clopidogrel or ticagrelor in preoperative coronary angiography for patients undergoing emergency CABG surgery from 2016 to September 2019.
The study is to further exploring the optimal switching strategy by evaluating the pharmacodynamic responses as well as adverse events in patients with complexity of coronary artery disease managed by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). All participants will be divided into three groups and recieving ticagrelor 90mg plus aspirin 100mg at 12 hours after the last dose of clopidogrel; recieving ticagrelor 90mg plus aspirin 100mg at 24 hours after the last dose of clopidogrel; recieving ticagrelor 180mg plus aspirin 100mg at 24 hours after the last dose of clopidogrel.
Of the patients diagnosed with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who underwent reperfusion therapy and have thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) 3 flow, about 40% have flow alterations in the coronary microcirculation, which leads to worse remodeling of the left ventricle with a consequent increase in the mortality of this population. Clopidogrel is the only known antiplatelet medication that brings benefits to the coronary microcirculation. Ticagrelor is significantly superior to clopidogrel in terms of decreasing mortality. The main objective of this study is to compare the effect of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel on the coronary microcirculation by the Myocardial Perfusion Score Index (MPSI) obtained using Microbubble Contrasted Echocardiography (MCE) in patients who have STEMI and treated with thrombolysis.
This study will examine the impact of the peripheral opioid antagonist methylnaltrexone on the onset of effect of ticagrelor in morphine treated patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Half of the participants will receive methylnaltrexone, while the other half will receive placebo.
