Includes events with onset from randomization up to 7 days after last dose. BARC bleeding was defined according to a score of 3 to 5 as follows: type 3, bleeding with a decrease in the hemoglobin of more than 3 g per deciliter, any transfusion, cardiac tamponade, or intracranial or ocular involvement; type 4, CABG-related bleeding; and type 5, fatal bleeding. Traumatic ICH: 27 (66%) on ticagrelor and 6 (38%) on placebo reported as subdural bleeding by investigators.

Symptomatic bleeding into a critical organ or area included intracranial, intraspinal, intraocular, retroperitoneal, intraarticular or pericardial, or intramuscular with compartment syndrome.

  • In ACS + PCI, at least 12 months of DAPT if no bleeding
  • If post-MI, diabetes, complex stenting/disease, consider longer
  • If Afib + PCI, aspirin in house, but then NOAC + clopidogrel
  • If very high risk due to ACS, complex stenting, consider ticagrelor
  • After 1 year, in general drop the antiplatelet if stable
  • If high bleeding risk post PCI, can abbreviate DAPT at 3 months
  • At that point ticagrelor or clopidogrel monotherapy are options
  • In patients not on DAPT but at high ischemic/low bleeding risk:
  • Consider COMPASS regimen of low-dose aspirin and low-dose riva
