Efficacy and safety of bivalirudin versus heparin in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Bivalirudin versus heparin in women undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials.

Patients treated with bivalirudin are still at higher risk of stent thrombosis: a comprehensive meta-analysis of randomised clinical trials of bivalirudin and heparin for percutaneous coronary interventions.

TLDR
Bivalirudin-based regimens are more beneficial when compared with heparin and planned GPI use in terms of NACE and major bleedings; this was not observed when compared to hepar in and provisional GPIUse.

Early stent thrombosis with bivalirudin in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. A meta-analysis of randomised clinical trials.

TLDR
In patients undergoing PCI, bivalirudin compared to heparins is associated with a higher risk of early stent thrombosis, which is mainly related to more frequent acute events.

Efficacy and safety of bivalirudin for percutaneous coronary intervention in acute coronary syndromes: a meta-analysis of randomized-controlled trials

TLDR
Compared with heparin, bivalirudin was associated with a similar incidence of ischemic events following PCI for ACS and an association of bivalIRudin with decreased bleeding was not seen with balanced use of GPI.

Critical Appraisal of Bivalirudin versus Heparin for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Trials

TLDR
Bivalirudin may be associated with a reduced hazard of major bleeding; however, this benefit was no longer apparent when compared with a dose of unfractionated heparin ≤ 75 units/kg, and bivalirUDin was not associated with reduction in bleeding.

An updated comprehensive meta-analysis of bivalirudin vs heparin use in primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

Bivalirudin versus Heparin plus Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Inhibitors in Women Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

TLDR
Bivalirudin is associated with a significant reduction in 30-day major bleeding without increased ischemic events compared with heparin plus GPI in female patients undergoing PCI.

Bivalirudin versus heparin in percutaneous coronary intervention-a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials stratified by adjunctive glycoprotein IIb/IIIa strategy.

TLDR
The lower anticoagulant effect of bivalirudin is linked with higher stent thrombosis and a trend towards more MI, however a confounding effect of GPI use in the heparin arm cannot be excluded.

TLDR
In patients with NSTEMI undergoing PCI, abciximab with heparin and bivalirudin provide comparable outcomes at one year, although bivalIRudin reduced the rate of bleeding at 30 days.
