In-hospital antithrombotic therapy and outcomes of elderly patients on warfarin undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: Insights from the WAR-STENT registry.

ABSTRACT: In the patients on warfarin undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention included in the prospective, multicentre, observational WAR-STENT registry, age ≥75 years was associated with a significant increase in in-hospital major bleeding, length of hospitalization, and use of bare-metal stents, with no differences in the peri-procedural management and antithrombotic therapy.
