JACC - P2Y12 Inhibitor Pretreatment in Non-ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome: The NCDR Chest Pain-MI Registry

JACC Associate Editor Seng Chan You, MD, and author Hiroki Ueyama, MD discuss this study presented at AHA and published in JACC. NCDR study finds a steady decline in P2Y12 inhibitor pretreatment for NSTE-ACS in the US, but significant variability persists among operators, institutions, and regions. This practice was not associated with any benefits but was linked to a longer length of stay among those undergoing CABG, underscoring the importance of maintaining efforts to integrate evidence into clinical practice.
