- Pt with a history of an arterial thromboembolic event during the previous year.This includes angina (stable or unstable),myocardial infarction (MI),cerebrovascular accident (CVA),or other relevant history in the opinion of the investigator.Note: A patient with a history of thrombotic events, such as deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, MI or ACV, within the 6 months preceding recruitment may be considered for participation in the clinical trial if they are receiving stable doses of anticoagulant therapy. Similarly, patients being anticoagulated for atrial fibrillation or other conditions can participate if they are receiving a stable dosage of anticoagulant therapy. Clinicians must consider the higher risk of therapy with BVZ among patients with a history of thromboembolic disorders so the decision to allow the patients to participate remains at the discretion of the physician
