Summary: | ACC/AHA guidelines support the use of the P2Y12 inhibitors clopidogrel, prasugrel, or ticagrelor in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Little is known about trends in P2Y12 inhibitor selection over time.
Multicenter, longitudinal analysis of patients and hospitals in the National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) Chest Pain – MI Registry from the third quarter of 2013 to the first quarter of 2017.
A total of 362,354 AMI patients treated at 801 hospitals were included in our analysis. Ticagrelor use increased over time, from 6.1% in 2013 to 33.7% in 2017, with corresponding reductions in the use of clopidogrel and prasugrel (p |
