Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether adding clopidogrel to aspirin after coronary bypass operation (CABG) improves graft patency, in patients that have preoperatively increased platelet activity(hypercoagulable) and therefore greater risk of graft occlusion( thrombosis).

Conditions

  • Graft Patency
  • Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery
  • Hypercoagulability
  • Thrombosis

Interventions

DRUG

Clopidogrel+acetylsalicylic acid

loading dose clopidogrel 300mg on second postoperative day. Thereafter 75mg clopidogrel daily for 3 months Aspirin 75mg daily, started within 24 hours after surgery

DRUG

acetylsalicylic acid

aspirin 75 mg daily, started 6-24 hours after surgery
