Abstract:
AlM: To analyze the prescribing of different antiplatelet drugs and clinical conditions of patients with coronary heart disease in department of Geriatrics. METHODS: This study was a single center and cross-sectional study. Patients with coronary heart disease were recruited when hospitalized in the department of Geriatrics department, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University between December 2021 and June 2022. We investigated and analyzed the clinical conditions of patients including the prescribing of the antiplatelet drugs. RESULTS: A total of 347 coronary heart disease patients with a mean age of (65.2 ± 10.1) years were included. The antiplatelet drug clopidogrel was the most commonly prescribed. Among the different dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), aspirin combined with clopidogrel was the most widely used. With the increasing of the numbers of target coronary lesions, the prescribing rate of clopidogrel increased significantly (P < 0.05). In three groups with different degrees of target coronary lesions, the prescribing rate of aspirin was higher than that of indobufene (P < 0.05). Compared with patients taking aspirin, the patients taking indobufene were older with a higher blood creatinine level, a higher proportion of chronic gastropathy and the higher level of platelet aggregation rates (P < 0.05). CONCLUSlON: Clopidogrel is the most commonly prescribed antiplatelet drugs in patients with coronary heart disease. Aspirin combined with clopidogrel is the most widely used in DAPT. Compared with aspirin, indobufene is more commonly used in elderly patients with the chronic gastritis and a higher serum creatinine level.
