Methods RCT comparing prasugrel versus clopidogrel in patients with acute coronary syndromes.
Data 13,608 patients were randomised (6813/6795, respectively in each treatment group).
Comparisons Onsite assessment (blinded local investigator) versus assessment by an AC blinded to allocated treatment.
Outcomes The outcome selected was myocardial infarction. The study's primary outcome was death from cardiovascular causes, non fatal myocardial infarction, or non fatal stroke.
Notes The study was identified because it was included in a review (Serebruany 2012). Data related to the number of events in each treatment group resulting from onsite‐assessor and AC assessments were extracted from this review.
