Episode 22 - Antiplatelet Agents Explored
Because of recently updated recommendations by the American College of Cardiology Foundation and American Heart Association about how to treat patients with cardiovascular disorders with antiplatelet therapy, Michael Weber, MD, discusses his personal recommendations.
Kenneth L. Schaecher, MD, FACP, CPC, briefly explains both the clinical and economic outcomes demonstrated through treatment with these agents, and because a large number of antiplatelet drugs are developing, David Calabrese, RPh, MHP, discusses how newer agents address treatment gaps and have better economic value when compared to older agents.
