Conclusions In patients with ACS who undergo invasive management, the presence of renal insufficiency is associated with higher rates of composite ischemia and mortality at 1 year Bivalirudin monotherapy improved early clinical outcomes compared to UFH/Enox + GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors by reducing 30-day major bleeding, and resulted in similar rates of one year composite ischemia and mortality In patients with ACS who undergo invasive management, the presence of renal insufficiency is associated with higher rates of composite ischemia and mortality at 1 year Bivalirudin monotherapy improved early clinical outcomes compared to UFH/Enox + GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors by reducing 30-day major bleeding, and resulted in similar rates of one year composite ischemia and mortality
