Historically, the research literature overwhelmingly emphasized the future hemorrhagic risk associated with CMBs, potentially leading to unnecessary withholding of treatments proven effective at preventing thrombosis, such as anticoagulants in patients with atrial fibrillation who happened to have some microbleeds.

Databases were searched for relevant articles published before 10 November 2023. Similarly, all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, stent thrombosis, and acute renal insufficiency did not show significant differences between two groups. However, deciding the timing of revascularization for non-IRA in cases of MVD is uncertain.

The prospect of uncoupling the management of thrombosis from the bleeding risk inadvertently associated with current therapy inspired the development of agents directed towards this step in the coagulation process.

In the early years of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), studies indicated a heightened risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), involving outcomes such as death, Q-wave myocardial infarction (MI), stent thrombosis, and repeat revascularization.

It is to be noted if the obstruction is due to pannus , risk of thrombosis is almost nil and safety of prosthetic balloon valvuloplasty is almost ensured.(Of Generally, overestimation risk of bleeding viz a viz with life threatening thrombosis is quiet common especially in patients with prosthetic valve. I believe, in the above case.

Abstract: As the pathogenesis of arterial thrombosis often includes platelet adhesion and aggregation, antiplatelet agents are commonly used to prevent thromboembolic events.

Primary endpoint of systematic review and meta-analysis is the NACE (Net Adverse Cardiac Events) and secondary are MACE (Major Adverse Cardiac Events), mortality, bleedings, myocardial infarction and stent thrombosis. Subgroup analyses included studies using only ticagrelor-based regimens and three-months duration of DAPT.

The angiogram showed an open artery with 95% stenosis and thrombosis and it was stented. I would expect TIMI-3 flow (normal flow, no persistent ischemia) with a culprit in the RCA (or possibly Circumflex). I would expect that a stent would be placed. Quiz : What percent of full blown STEMI have an open artery with normal flow at angiogram?

Coronary thrombosis or embolism can result in MINOCA, either with or without a hypercoagulable state. The ways to tell for certain include intravascular ultrasound (to look for extra-luminal plaque with rupture) or "optical coherence tomography," something I am entirely unfamiliar with. A list of conditions that can cause this is below.
