Pharmacology
Increasing risk of ischemic complications
Increasing risk of bleeding complcations
Increasing thrombotic risk usually parallels
increased bleeding risk
Pharmacological strategies to reduce
bleeding during PCI
1. Reduced dose/no heparin
Stable
Increasing risk of bleeding complcations
2. LMW versus unfractionated heparin
3. Newer synthetic anticoaculants ACS
1. Bivalirudin versus heparin/GPI
High Risk
2. Reduced dose GPI ACS/PPCI
Low dose or ‘no’ dose heparin?
Current heparin dosages used in PCI are not based on
randomised data
Current strategies include weight adjusted/ACT adjusted or
fixed dose
Is it safe to use no heparin in selected ‘low risk’ patients?

Reduced dose GPI?
• Early data (EPIC) suggested reduced bleeding but
higher ischaemic complications with bolus abciximab
• EASY PCI (transradial) - clopidogrel loading. no
difference between bolus/infusion of abciximab.
Bleeding rates 0.5% (TRI)
• BRIEF PCI – ~700 patients (stable/ACS).

Conclusions
• Tailored treatment for individual patients to balance
thrombotic/bleeding risk.
• Stepwise approach to antithrombotics with increasing
bleeding risk
• Avoid switching between antithrombins (except UFH
from fondaparinux)
• Pharmacology should be coupled with other bleeding
avoidance strategies (TRI in particular)
