Conclusions and Clinical Implications • In patients with moderate and high risk ACS undergoing PCI • Replacing upstream heparin with bivalirudin in pts treated with GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors provides similar clinical and angiographic outcomes • Replacing heparin and GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors with bivalirudin alone (with provisional IIb/IIIa inhibitor use in <10% of pts) results in similar rates of ischemia with reduced hemorrhagic complications, thereby improving overall event-free survival
