Conditions
Acute Coronary Syndrome
Registration Number
NCT02500290
Lead Sponsor
Fundación Pública Andaluza Progreso y Salud
Brief Summary

This study aims to describe antiplatelet therapy in ACS in Andalusia and make an assessment of efficacy and safety of hospital use Prasugrel / ticagrelor vs. Clopidogrel and Prasugrel switching to / ticagrelor patients pretreated with clopidogrel.

Detailed Description

The management of acute coronary syndrome has changed in recent years as reflected in the new Clinical Practice Guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology for the management of ACS with or without ST segment elevation, with the development and increased accessibility of the angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention and the arrival of the new antiplatelet (Prasugrel and Ticagrelor).

The ACS encompasses several clinical entities where dual antiplatelet therapy remains the basis of antiplatelet therapy and one of the mainstays of treatment. But the emergence of Prasugrel and Ticagrelor have changed the classical management with aspirin plus clopidogre
