Real-world heart procedure blood thinner patterns under the microscope
NCT ID NCT05193019
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tracks how doctors in Spain use injectable blood thinners (cangrelor or GPIs) during heart procedures like stent placement. It includes 717 patients and will look at short-term outcomes like death, heart attack, stroke, and bleeding within 48 hours. The goal is to understand current practice and safety in real-world settings.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Parenteral antiplatelet agents (cangrelor or glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help doctors choose the best blood thinner for heart procedures, potentially reducing complications.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to other countries or populations.
