Original Source: The ITALIC Study: Is There A LIfe for Drug-eluting Stents (DES) After Discontinuation of Clopidogrel
Background Drug-eluting stents (DES) have been extremely successful in reducing restenosis and the need for repeat revascularization procedures in patients who undergo PCI. The potential increased incidence of late stent thrombosis prompted cardiologists to prolong the use of dual anti-platelet therapy after the one year duration recommended by the recent ESC guidelines. However, while the premise that the cardiologists should put all their patients on dual clopidogrel-a...
