Rationale of using Aspirin in CAD
Meadows TA et al Circ Res. 2007;100:1261-1275.
Aspirin inhibits platelets, reduces chance of thrombosis
Atherothrombosis

increasing bleeding risks

Using Aspirin: benefit vs risk
Acute phase of event
Eg MI, stroke
Post event
Eg post MI, PCI, CABG
Evidence of atherosclerosis
Eg +ve CTA, mild CAD, carotid IMT
High risk of CVD
Eg DM, high ASCVD score
Risk of death

ARRIVE study: Conclusions
• With contemporary treatment, actual CV event rate seemed to decrease
• It is difficult to conduct primary prevention trials as patient compliance is fair in long run
• Aspirin seemed can reduce risk of MI if compliance is good, with increased risk of GI bleeding

Acute phase of event
Eg MI, stroke
Post event
Eg post MI, PCI,
CABG
Stable atherosclerosis
High CV risk, DM
Aspirin indicated
Need to discuss with patients benefit and
risk of Aspirin
Benefit: probably reduces chance of MI
Risk: risk of bleeding (particularly GIB)
Aspirin if no C/I or low risk of bleeding (also depends on extent of atherosclerosis)
In the contemporary practice of
alternative treatment Eg Statins, PCSK9
SGLT-2 inh, GLP-1 for DM
Aspirin in prevention of CV event
Practical considerations
