Percutaneous coronary intervention is crucial to the treatment of coronary artery disease. Invasive nature of procedure in conjunction
with the use of antithrombotics means the risk of bleeding that is associated with worse ischemic outcomes and increased short-time
as well as long-time mortality. Optimalization of pharmacotherapy and use of radial artery access reduce bleeding rates and together
with restrictive use of blood transfusions improve patient outcomes.
