Effect of Ticagrelor on Adenosine-Induced Coronary Flow Reserve in Patients With Microvascular Angina

Lead Sponsor:

Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University

Conditions:

Microvascular Angina

Eligibility:

All Genders

18-80 years

Phase:

PHASE4

Brief Summary

This study is undertaken to determine if ticagrelor augments adenosine-induced coronary flow reserve (CFR), ameliorates clinical symptomatology and exercise tolerance in patients with MVA

Detailed Description

Considering the reduced CFR and increased platelet aggregability in patients with MVA, together with the augmented effect on adenosine-mediated coronary blood flow and potent antiplatelet effect of ti...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion
