What is the Optimal Duration of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Stenting?

open access: yesCardiovascular Innovations and Applications, 2016
The optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) of aspirin and a P2Y12 receptor blocker after stenting is still being debated. The current recommendations for DAPT duration are significantly focused on reducing stent thrombosis; a less frequent ...
