Description:

In this episode, Dr. Valentin Fuster discusses the ASSURE DES trial, which compared aspirin monotherapy to withholding antiplatelet therapy in stable patients with drug-eluting stents undergoing non-cardiac surgery. The trial found no significant difference in major adverse outcomes between the two strategies, though minor bleeding was more common in the aspirin group, leading to a recommendation to continue aspirin therapy for most patients undergoing low-to-intermediate risk surgery, with exceptions for those at high bleeding risk.
