Where Do Potent P2Y12 Inhibitors Fit Into Current Practice? - Balancing Risk Post-PCI
This broadcast series 'Where Do Potent P2Y12 Inhibitors Fit Into Current Practice?' will reappraise potent P2Y12 inhibitors, as evidence accumulates to support their broader use. At this juncture, there is still some uncertainty around patient selection, initiation and long-term management.
The third broadcast in this series, focused on Balancing Risk Post-PCI. In this on-demand version of the live broadcast, Radcliffe Medical Education brings together a global faculty of experts in the field to look at current guidance, the landmark data, gaps in evidence and seeks to provide practical guidance.
Prof Roxana Mehran (Mount Sinai Hospital, New York, US) chairs the proceedings, and is joined by Prof Dominick Angiolillo (University of Florida College of Medicine-Jacksonville, US), Prof Marco Valgimigli (Instituto Cardiocentro Ticino, Lugano, CH) and Prof Pascal Vranckx (University of Hasselt, BE) for a series of insightful presentations and discussions.
