No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether continuous clopidogrel dose adjustment targeted after platelet function testing improves outcomes during 12 months of follow-up in acute coronary syndrome patients treated with coronary artery stenting and with determined high platelet reactivity on clopidogrel.

Conditions

  • Acute Coronary Syndrome

Interventions

DRUG

Clopidogrel dose adjustment

Patients in the interventional arm will receive clopidogrel dose adjustment to maintain optimal platelet reactivity determined by Multiplate function analyzer (19-46U). They will undergo platelet function testing on day 1,2,3,7,30 and month 2,3,6,9 and 12. On first two measurements patients will receive up to 2 additional clopidogrel loading doses (600 mg) and put on 150 mg and 75 mg a day if platelet reactivity \>18U and \<18U, respectively. Maintenance dose will be determined on following measurements - increased by 75 mg if \>46U; not changed if 19-46U; decreased by 75 mg if \<19U. Minimal dose - 75 mg; maximal dose 300 mg (for patients \>70 years 150 mg)
