Abstract
Based on the current meta-analysis including 17,941 ACS patients undergoing PCI, a short duration of DAPT may be safely considered, with similar rates of recurrent thrombotic complications as compared to the standard 12 months, and similar mortality. A more extended DAPT administration (beyond 1 year) provides benefits in ischemic events, but with an excess in haemorragic complications, with overall neutral effects on mortality.
