Summary
This study tests whether a risk score (OPT-CAD) can safely guide when to switch from two blood thinners to just one after a heart attack and stent placement. About 3,490 adults with acute coronary syndrome will be assigned to stop one blood thinner at either 1 or 3 months based on their risk level. The goal is to reduce bleeding while still preventing clots, heart attacks, and strokes.
