Scott Kinlay։ Cancer and Adverse Outcomes Over 5 Years After Coronary Stenting and Optimal DAPT Duration

Scott Kinlay, Chief of Cardiology at VA Boston Healthcare System and Associate Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article he and his colleagues co-authored, adding:

”Just published: Ramael Ohiomoba and Edwin Mandieka’s paper examines the relationship of cancer to adverse outcomes over 5 years after coronary stenting, as well as the optimal duration DAPT.

Key findings were that cancer patients have higher rates of myocardial infarction and major bleeding after PCI compared to non-cancer patients. The analysis also supports a similar duration of DAPT after PCI in cancer patients as non-cancer patients.”
