Dual Antiplatelet Therapy for Coronary and Peripheral Arterial Disease is a complete reference containing updated information on the advantages and disadvantages of dual antiplatelet therapy, its duration, composition and anticipated changes. The basis for DAPT in arterial disease is discussed, allowing readers to understand platelet physiology and its relevance to ischemic events. Data on shorter than usual duration of DAPT, and on extended therapy beyond the recommendation of current guidelines is presented in great detail, summarizing a large body of evidence into concrete, relevant recommendation that is readily adaptable by practicing clinicians.
A clinically relevant and updated compendium of data pertaining to this field is also presented, as well as the anticipated trends and innovations likely to occur in the next 3-5 years.
- Summarizes a large body of evidence into concrete, relevant recommendations that is readily adapted by practicing clinicians

He also grades abstracts presented to the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology. Dr Brener is the author or co-author of over 40 chapters in medical textbooks, related to adjunctive therapy and fibrinolytic agents used in cardiac intervention, therapy for acute myocardial infarction and platelet function. He has published over 350 articles and abstracts in medical journals on topics related to his specialty interests. Dr Brener has been invited to address numerous medical symposia and conferences worldwide on such topics as alternative paradigms of therapy beyond conventional revascularization and anti-platelet therapy for atherosclerosis, among others.
