Challenges in acute coronary syndrome treatment
Session comprising selected EuroPCR 2024 Abstract submissions
Summary
This session delves into the challenges and emerging insights in the treatment of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). It features presentations and discussions on topics such as sex-based differences in treatment and outcomes in STEMI, the use of ticagrelor de-escalation strategy in CKD patients, the outcomes of aspirin-free prasugrel monotherapy in NSTE-ACS, the role of early CABG with intraoperative hemadsorptions in patients on ticagrelor, and the assessment of drug-eluted balloon PCI and mechanical thrombo-aspiration in STEMI. The session aims to provide attendees with a deeper understanding of the evolving management strategies and considerations for optimizing outcomes in ACS patients.
