About this trial
The use of clopidogrel as part of DAPT will be associated with lower bleeding rates compared to ticagrelor in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia requiring Percutaneous intervention (PCI )with Drug Eluting Stent (DES) or Bare Metal Stint(BMS).

At least one dose of DAPT post-PCI with aspirin and either clopidogrel or ticagrelor
Disqualifiers
Death within 48 hours post-PCI
DAPT prior to cardiac catheterization
