Intraprocedural thrombotic events: What's the real cost?

Abstract: Intraprocedural thrombotic events (IPTE) during PCI occur in 4% of patients with NSTEACS and 12% of STEACS. IPTE increases hospital cost by $3,592. With an incidence of 4%, additional therapy to completely prevent IPTE in 100 patients would need to cost $144 to make it cost neutral. Further studies are necessary to determine cost-benefit of therapies to prevent IPTE such as cangrelor or newer P2Y12 inhibitors with more rapid onset.
