A Randomized Controlled Trial of Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Who Receive Ticagrelor and Fentanyl

Status: Terminated
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Drug
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Phase 4
SUMMARY

During a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), Fentanyl is commonly used for sedation. Ticagrelor is also routinely used as anti-platelet agent during PCI. However, a recent study has demonstrated the decrease in effectiveness of Ticagrelor when administered along with Fentanyl. Hence this study was designed to further assess the interaction between crushed vs non crushed Ticagrelor and Fentanyl given during PCI procedures.
