Population Pharmacokinetics of Ticagrelor during Veno‐Arterial ECMO in Acute Coronary Syndrome: Model‐Informed Dosing Simulations

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 120, Issue 1, Page 193-202, July 2026.
Although patients with acute coronary syndrome supported by veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA‐ECMO) have a high risk of thrombosis and bleeding, antiplatelet pharmacology in this setting is not well defined. This prospective observational study investigated the population pharmacokinetics of ticagrelor and its active metabolite AR ...

Variability in ACT Response to Standard UFH Bolus During PCI: A Prospective Study on Determinants of Subtherapeutic Anticoagulation

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 7, Page 2293-2303, June 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Unfractionated heparin (UFH) remains the standard anticoagulant during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), with guidelines recommending a target activated clotting time (ACT) of ≥250 s. However, despite receiving a standardized bolus dose, many patients fail to achieve this target.
