Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Medication adherence3 months

A measure of Pharmacy days covered for DAPT medication. The patients after recieving a Drug Eluting Stent need to adhere to Dual Antiplatlet Therapy (DAPT) to prevent restenosis of the stent. PDC is a calculation of the DAPT which is Aspirin and an ADP receptor antagonist. As aspirin is over the counter, the pharmacy does not have a record of purchase so the PDC was calculated for the ADP receptor antagonis.
