Abstract:

Various platelet function tests are currently used to identify responsiveness to antiplatelet therapy. 176 ACS patients were enrolled and Linear regression and Kappa consistency analysis showed there was a significant but moderate correlation between platelet inhibition rate and a significant but fair agreement between high clopidogrel on-treatment platelet reactivity tested by light transmission aggregometry and thrombelastography.
