Reinforces safety of high-dose heparin/aspirin during angioplasty in stable angina; leaves open effects in other populations or regimens.
Does coronary angioplasty with high-dose heparin and aspirin cause early intracoronary hemostatic activation in patients with stable angina?
Intracoronary hemostatic activation does not occur during and immediately following coronary angioplasty when high doses of heparin and aspirin are administered.
