Unveiling the Hidden Risk: Ticagrelor-Induced Bradyarrhythmias and Conduction Complications in ACS Patients—Case Series
Ticagrelor-induced bradyarrhythmias, although rare, represent an important and reversible adverse effect that clinicians should be aware of, particularly during the early post-ACS phase. Prompt recognition and drug withdrawal may prevent severe outcomes and avoid unnecessary interventions such as pacemaker implantation. Further studies are warranted to identify patient-specific risk factors predisposing to ticagrelor-related conduction disturbances.
