Dirk Sibbing, Cardiologist and Angiologist at Lauterbacher Mill Private Clinic and LMU Munich, shared on LinkedIn:
“New data from our RCT hashtag#TROPICAL-ACS in European Heart Journal Acute Cardiovascular Care
DAPT-Deescalation works, also in hashtag#ACS patients with high hashtag#thrombotic risk
Great Teamwork across >30 study sites in Europe, during the trial and in the years thereafter!
Based on TROPICAL-ACS and other pivotal RCTs, DAPT-deescalation has made its way into the guidelines among other DAPT modulation strategies for tailored patient care !”
