NCT ID NCT02817789
First seen May 14, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study tested whether a single blood thinner (ticagrelor) is safer than the standard two-drug combination (aspirin plus clopidogrel) after TAVI, a minimally invasive heart valve replacement for aortic stenosis. Researchers enrolled 50 older adults and tracked complications like bleeding, stroke, and kidney injury within 30 days. The goal is to find the best anti-clotting plan to reduce risks after the procedure.
