Overview

The DAPT score is a clinical prediction score assessing ischemic and bleeding risks at 12 to 30 months following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to inform the duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). The score was derived from the DAPT study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT00977938) and initially validated in the PROTECT trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT00476957).

DAPT Score

The DAPT score is a simplified clinical prediction score designed to assess the benefit-risk tradeoff between ischemia reduction (myocardial infarction or stent thrombosis) and bleeding increase (moderate or severe hemorrhage) associated with continued thienopyridine plus aspirin versus aspirin alone at 12 to 30 months after PCI based on 11,648 patients enrolled in the DAPT study (derivation cohort) and 8,136 patients enrolled in the PROTECT trial (validation cohort).[1] The DAPT score has been externally validated in several subsequent studies.[2][3][4][5][6]

Interpretation

  • Score ≥2 (high score): benefit-risk favoring prolonged DAPT over aspirin alone
  • Greater ischemic reduction (2.7% for prolonged DAPT vs 5.7% for aspirin alone; difference, −3.0% [95% CI, −4.1% to −2.0%]; NNT=34)
  • Smaller bleeding increase (1.8% for prolonged DAPT vs 1.4% for aspirin alone; difference, 0.4% [95% CI, −0.3% to 1.0%])
  • Score <2 (low score): benefit-risk favoring aspirin alone over prolonged DAPT
  • Smaller ischemic reduction (1.7% for prolonged DAPT vs 2.3% for aspirin alone; difference, −0.7% [95% CI, −1.4% to 0.1%])
  • Greater bleeding increase (3.0% for prolonged DAPT vs 1.4% for aspirin alone; difference, 1.5% [95% CI, 0.8% to 2.3%]; NNH=64)
