Antithrombotic therapy in patients with complex percutaneous coronary intervention
Review published in Interv Cardiol Clin (2024)
Abstract
Managing antithrombotic therapy in patients undergoing complex and high-risk in indicated patients, including those treated with complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or presenting with cardiogenic shock (CS), is challenging. This review highlights the critical role of antithrombotic therapy, during and after PCI, to optimize the efficacy while minimizing risks. Unfractionated heparin remains the mainstay anticoagulant for complex PCI and CS, with bivalirudin as a potential safer alternative. Cangrelor offers consistent antiplatelet effects, especially when timely absorption of oral agents is uncertain.

Zusammenfassung
Review of antithrombotic therapy options for complex PCI patients including bivalirudin (leech-derived).
Warum dies für die Hirudotherapie relevant ist
This review examines antithrombotic therapy management during and after complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and in cardiogenic shock, noting that unfractionated heparin remains the mainstay anticoagulant while bivalirudin is discussed as a potentially safer alternative. The abstract does not mention leeches, hirudin, the leech secretome, or any leech-derived intervention. No defensible connection to hirudotherapy or ASH's domain exists based on this abstract alone; the focus is entirely on pharmacological antithrombotic strategies in interventional cardiology, and any link would require external knowledge not present in the source text.
