Korean J Intern Med. 2021;36(Suppl 1):S80-S89. Published online February 25, 2021
Background/Aims: Prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and clopidogrel beyond 1 year has been shown to reduce ischemic events at the expense of increased bleeding. However, limited data are available on the clinical significance of platelet reactivity (PR) at 1 year.
Methods: We r..

Clinical impact of routine follow-up coronary angiography after second- or third-generation drug-eluting stent insertion in clinically stable patients
Seonghoon Choi, Hee-Sun Mun, Min-Kyung Kang, Jung Rae Cho, Seong Woo Han, Namho Lee Lee
Korean J Intern Med. 2015;30(1):49-55. Published online December 30, 2014
Background/Aims: In the bare-metal stent era, routine follow-up coronary angiography (RFU CAG) was used to ensure stent patency. With the advent of drug-eluting stents (DESs) with better safety and efficacy profiles, RFU CAG has been performed less often. There are few data on the clinical impact of..
