Clinical trial data show that although patients should receive “triple” therapy after percutaneous coronary intervention and stenting, its duration should be minimized by switching to a direct oral anticoagulant plus P2Y12 inhibitor. AUGUSTUS study demonstrated that early (approximately 7 days after percutaneous coronary intervention) switching from “triple” antiplatelet therapy to apixaban (in the usual dose for AF) and P2Y12 inhibitor should be the strategy of choice in many patients. This article discusses some of the nuances of managing patients with acute coronary syndrome and AF with a high risk of bleeding and/or high ischemic risk. Choosing apixaban as a first-line remedy for such kind of patients, its favorable efficacy and safety profile, even in case of high hemorrhagic and/or ischemic risk is justified.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Антитромбоцитарная терапия у пациентов с фибрилляцией предсердий (ФП) и острым коронарным синдромом сопряжена с трудностями принятия решений относительно длительности «тройной» терапии, выбора одного из оральных антикоагулянтов и др. Данные клинических исследований свидетельствуют, что, хотя после чрескожного коронарного вмешательства и стентирования пациенты должны получать «тройную» терапию, ее продолжительность нужно максимально сокращать, переходя на прием одного из прямых оральных антикоагулянтов + ингибитора P2Y12. В исследовании AUGUSTUS показано, что ранний (примерно к 7-му дню после чрескожного коронарного вмешательства) переход с «тройной» антитромбоцитарной терапии на прием апиксабана (в обычной для ФП дозе) и ингибитора P2Y12 у многих больных должен быть стратегией выбора. В статье рассмотрены некоторые тонкости ведения пациентов с острым коронарным синдромом и ФП с высоким риском развития кровотечений и/или высоким ишемическом риском. Обоснован выбор апиксабана в качестве препарата первой линии у таких пациентов, его благоприятный профиль эффективности и безопасности даже при высоком геморрагическом и/или ишемическом риске.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>acute coronary syndrome</kwd><kwd>atrial fibrillation</kwd><kwd>percutaneous coronary intervention</kwd><kwd>apixaban</kwd><kwd>oral anticoagulant</kwd><kwd>“triple” antiplatelet therapy</kwd><kwd>direct oral anticoagulants</kwd><kwd>high hemorrhagic risk</kwd><kwd>P2Y12 inhibitors</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>острый коронарный синдром</kwd><kwd>фибрилляция предсердий</kwd><kwd>чрескожное коронарное вмешательство</kwd><kwd>апиксабан</kwd><kwd>оральный антикоагулянт</kwd><kwd>«тройная» антитромбоцитарная терапия</kwd><kwd>прямые оральные антикоагулянты</kwd><kwd>высокий геморрагический риск</kwd><kwd>ингибиторы P2Y12</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Lehto M, Snapinn S, Dickstein K, Swedberg K, Nieminen MS; OPTIMAAL investigators.
