Summary
During a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), Fentanyl is commonly used for sedation.
Ticagrelor is also routinely used as anti-platelet agent during PCI. However, a recent study
has demonstrated the decrease in effectiveness of Ticagrelor when administered along with
Fentanyl. Hence this study was designed to further assess the interaction between crushed vs
non crushed Ticagrelor and Fentanyl given during PCI procedures.
