Hendrianus The: Intravenous Cangrelor in Hemodynamically Unstable Patients Undergoing PCI
Hendrianus The, Interventional & Structural Cardiology Fellow at Heart and Brain Hospital, Chung-Ang University Medical Center, shared on LinkedIn about a recent article he and his colleagues co-authored, adding:
“I would like to share our recently published meta-analysis evaluating intravenous cangrelor in hemodynamically unstable patients undergoing PCI.
We found that IV cangrelor was associated with reduced mortality, with the most pronounced benefit observed in patients with cardiogenic shock, along with improved coronary flow.
These findings support its role as a valuable alternative when oral P2Y12 inhibitor administration is not feasible, pending confirmation in large-scale randomized trials.”
