Abstract

This literature review examines the available evidence base and recommendations for the use of basic antiplatelet agents used in clinical practice. Data on the current understanding on the use of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) for primary prevention of cardiovascular events is reviewed. We discuss the step-wise approach to the individual assessment of benefits from the use of ASA in primary prevention, proposed by the Working Group on Thrombosis of the European Society of Cardiology.
