Does not support prehospital ticagrelor for pre-PCI reperfusion in STEMI; leaves open effects on clinical outcomes.
Does prehospital ticagrelor improve pre-PCI coronary reperfusion in patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction?
Prehospital administration of ticagrelor in STEMI patients does not improve pre-PCI coronary reperfusion despite being safe.
A 2014 study studied this question. Prehospital ticagrelor was safe but did not improve pre-PCI coronary reperfusion in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
