Abstract

Vomiting is associated with lower levels of ticagrelor concentration and higher platelet reactivity in the early hours of ST -elevation myocardial infarction. These results support reloading with a ticagrelor loading dose and/or treatment with intra-venous platelet inhibitors when patients vomit. (Am HeartJ 2022;243:39-42.)
