Antiplatelet therapy in patients after an acute coronary syndrome: Comparison of the Czech and Slovak Republics Results of the ATHRO registry

Original language description

Background The modern treatment of acute coronary syndromes includes early initiation of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and coronary angiography (CAG) followed by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Recently two new potent antiplatelet agents (ticagrelor and prasugrel) were introduced in clinical practice. The aim of this registry was to analyze the treatment strategies in two neighboring countries: Czech (CZ) and Slovak (SK) Republics. Patients and methods A total of 1541 patients was enrolled during one month period in 18 tertiary cardiac centers in CZ (n = 1026) and 6 centers in SK (n = 515). The mean age was 66 ? 12 years (CZ) vs. 63 ? 12 (SK), diabetes mellitus was present in 31.1% (CZ) and 32.6% (SK). Prior revascularization was reported in 21.9% (CZ) vs. 16.1% (SK). Results ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) was the final diagnosis in 51.9% (CZ) vs. 44.9% (SK), non-STEMI in 34.1% vs. 31.
