PCI, Stents, Clopidogrel and Non‐cardiac Surgery

Abstract

What follows in this discussion is partially abstracted from a wonderful ACCEL interview with Peter Berger by Freek W.A. Verheugt on the subject of stopping antiplatelet therapy prior to non‐cardiac surgery. 1 I suspect what Dr. Berger believes is representative of the opinion of many interventional cardiologists.
