Abstract
Objectives This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows: The objective of this review is to evaluate the available evidence in order to identify an optimal de‐escalation strategy in terms of duration and type of therapy for patients with ACS treated with PCI. We will perform a NMA to appraise the safest and most efficacious combination of type and length of DAPT de‐escalation.
