Brief Summary

Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) require platelet inhibition after treatment. P2Y12 receptor blockage is a well-known, proved method of urgent and effective blockade of the platelet activation, and is applied to the current practice protocol. Ticagrelor is a well-performing P2Y12 receptor blocking agent which is used in these patients. In the same matter, it is essential to prescribe the exact dosage to optimize efficacy within the safety limits. However current studies are based on Western countries, whereas there has been no Ticagrelor patient registry in East-Asia. Thus it is reasonable to study the use of Ticagrelor in a large registry of Korean ACS patients. The BK registry is a Prospective, Open-label, Multi-center, Real world, Registry, with prospective registration of patients receiving the medication, Ticagrelor. All subjects are to be followed up for 18 months after diagnosis and treatment for ACS. The purpose of this study is to observe and register clinical data including Major Adverse Cardiovascular Endpoints and any total bleeding occurrence in Korean ACS patients treated with Ticagrelor during 18 month follow-up. Also, the purpose includes to determine compliance of Ticagrelor during post-approval commercial use and to determine prescription pattern of Ticagrelor during post-approval commercial use.

Conditions

Acute Coronary Syndrome

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Number of participants with 'Major Adverse Cardiovascular endpoints'

  'Major Adverse Cardiovascular endpoints' assessment will be recorded as number of participants with 'Major Adverse Cardiovascular endpoints'. This measure is a composite outcome, which includes cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, stent thrombosis.

  18 months

• Number of participants with Bleeding events

  Bleeding event assessment will be recorded as number of participants with Bleeding events. Assessment will be done by the investigator(s) at each routine out-patient follow-up period. Bleeding events will be analyzed according to the 'PLATO bleeding criteria'.

  18 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Compliance of Brilinta

  12 months

• Duration of prescribed Brilinta

  12 months

• Dosage of prescribed Brilinta

  12 months

Interventions

Brilinta DRUG

90mg bid as a treatment for Acute coronary syndrome. Dose and Duration can be adjusted by the primary physician.

Eligibility Criteria

• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Child (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample
