Patients with thrombocytopenia are at an increased risk of both bleeding and ischemic events following PCI; however, there is a paucity of data on how to optimally manage these risks. Data indicates that ticagrelor is associated with reduced ischemic outcomes with an accompanying increased risk of bleed in the broader population. This study will assess P2Y12 agent selection in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia to determine if one better balances risks of ischemic and bleeding events following coronary intervention
