Abstract

The TEAM pilot study underscores the importance of adequate platelet inhibition (>90% PI) in high-risk PCI, and demonstrates that attaining >90% PI is possible in most patients by adding a half-bolus of any GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor, with no increase in major/minor bleeding similar periprocedural myocardial necrosis, and 30-day MACE with all 3 GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors.
