This session will touch of current practice for treatment options for those at high risk of CVD. We will explore previous trial data looking at extending DAPT therapy and explore new options – predominantly data for rivaroxaban 2.5mg twice daily (in the COMPASS trial) and from ticagrelor 60mg twice daily (from the PEGASUS trial). Finally we will explore options on how these strategies could be implemented at a local level. Advanced level – knowledge of ACS and current treatment strategies required |
