Therapeutic inertia in antiplatelet therapy in patients with a cardiovascular event attended in an emergency department.

CONCLUSIONS: The magnitude of TI in antiplatelet therapy in patients who had already suffered a cardiovascular event was very high. TI was associated with being a woman, having a high cultural level, and not being diagnosed with hypertension or dyslipidemia. More studies are needed to corroborate these results to take the appropriate measures to reduce TI. PMID: 29690773 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
