Adjunctive platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptor inhibition during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) reduces the incidence of periprocedural major adverse cardiovascular events and improves long-term clinical outcomes.1 The specific administration of abciximab has been associated with a long-term (1 to 3 years) survival advantage2,3 that seems to be proportional to the preprocedur...
