简要总结
Platelets play a major role in thrombus formation and platelet size, measured by Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) correlates with platelet activity. MPV is increased in patients with Myocardial Infarction (MI) and is an independent predictor of adverse events in patients with ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) . Data on MPV in patients with stable angina is limited.
Aspirin and clopidogrel are antiplatelet agents administered routinely to patients undergoing PCI and are required for stent patency. MPV is not known to be affected by low dose Aspirin. Treatment with clopidogrel is thought to reduce MPV in-vitro but the magnitude of this reduction in MPV is unclear, especially in patients with stable angina undergoing PCI. An inverse correlation also exists between MPV and platelet count .
The investigators aim to assess if a change occurs in MPV (∆ MPV) after routine clopidogrel administration in patients with stable angina undergoing PCI.
详细描述
This is a prospective, observational study. The investigators aim to conduct this pilot study to assess if there is a change in MPV (∆ MPV) after routine clopidogrel in patients with stable angina undergoing PCI.
Reduced responsiveness to clopidogrel (otherwise known as clopidogrel resistance) is well documented. Clopidogrel resistance can result in adverse long term effects including stent thrombosis and mortality. Diagnosis of clopidogrel resistance requires special analyzers and reagents . There are potential cost factors involved with the analyzers and reagents used for testing resistance. There are no known clinical or biochemical markers of clopidogrel resistance.
If our pilot study results demonstrate that MPV does change (∆MPV) after clopidogrel, then a prospective trial can be conducted in future to correlate ∆MPV with clopidogrel resistance measured by analyzer tests. This could establish ∆MPV as a potential cheap, effective biochemical marker for clopidogrel resistance.
If the investigators are successful in demonstrating a change in MPV with clopidogrel, our pilot study will facilitate conducting future larger studies to demonstrate correlation between ∆MPV and clopidogrel resistance. This could establish ∆MPV as a potential cheap, effective biochemical marker for clopidogrel resistance with resultant benefit to subjects and the institution.
All clopidogrel naive patients with stable angina symptoms who are electively listed for coronary angiography and PCI at Peter Munk Cardiac Centre (PMCC), Toronto General Hospital (TGH), will be included in this pilot study. This pilot study will be conducted in compliance with the protocol, Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and University Health Network (UHN) policy
