Name Time Method A composit event of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, repeat revascularization of the target lesion, and unexpected amputation of the target limb between TAP group and DAP A group (aspirin & clopidogrel)
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Major adverse event between TAP group and DAP B group(Major adverse event is defined as a composite event of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, repeat revascularization of the target lesion, and unexpected amputation of the target limb between TAP group and DAP B group (aspirin & cilostazol));Adverse limb event among the 3 patient groups(Adverse limb event is defined as a composite event of repeat revascularization of the target lesions and unexpected amputation of the target limb);Bleeding complications among the patient groups(Major bleeding event based on TIMI criteria)
