A Prospective, Single-center Investigation of the Impact of Antithrombotic Drugs and Cerebral Microbleeds on Cerebral Outcomes in Patients with Coronary Artery Stents

Not Applicable
Conditions
Ischemic heart disease treated by percutaneous coronary intervention
Registration Number
JPRN-UMIN000014882
Lead Sponsor
ational Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center, Division of Cardiovascular Medicine
Brief Summary

The prevalence of intracerebral microbleeds (CMBs) was 33% (n=109), with a mean number of CMBs of 2.9+-3.6 (median 2, quartile range 1-3), of which 16 (15%) were multi-CMBs (>4). ICH occurred in 1 of 4 CMBs (1.1%), with no significant difference in ICH prevalence among the 3 groups. CMB was associated with all-cause mortality (non-CMB vs. CMB<5 vs. CMB>4, 3.6% vs. 12.0% vs. 6.3%, P=0.022).
