Parenteral Antiplatelet Use in the Neurocritical Care Patient Population and Associated Outcomes (SCCM 2026) - Mar 17, 2026 - Pres time: Mar 22, 2026; 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM; Location: Connections Central - RST 06; "There were eight bleeding events in the cangrelor cohort and one bleeding event in the tirofiban cohort with one instance of a new or recurrent stroke seen in each. These agents were used for appropriate indications with doses seen in previous literature. Our safety and efficacy data for the use of cangrelor and tirofiban in the neurocritical care population seems consistent with previous literature; however, larger prospective studies with well-balanced cohorts are needed to draw conclusions on whether either parenteral antiplatelet agent has better safety and efficacy profiles compared to the other."
