Powered by AI

Overview

In this study, the investigates try to confirm our hypothesis that low dose ticagrelor(60mg) had similar anti-platelets function compared with the standard dose ticagrelor in senior (no less than 75 years old)acute coronary syndrome patients . Totally 40 senior ACS patients will be divided into 2 groups randomly one month after PCI . Group 1 will be treated with ticagrelor 90mg and aspirin 100mg after PCI for 12 months as the standard group; Group 2 will be treated with ticagrelor 60mg plus aspirin 100 mg for 11 months after one month standard DAPT treatment. The platelets function will be tested in VASP and TEG methods 2 months after PCI as the primary endpoints.The clinical events will be observed 12 months after PCI.

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?
