Group Intervention Description Ticagrelor Ticagrelor Ticagrelor - 180 mg loading dose Clopidogrel Clopidogrel Clopidogrel - 600 mg loading dose
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Inhibition of the P2Y12 Receptor at 2 Hours After Loading Doses of Ticagrelor and Clopidogrel as Measured by P2Y12 Reaction Units (PRU) From VerifyNow™ 2 hours after the loading dose Participants with low (\<150) baseline PRU values were excluded.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Inhibition of the P2Y12 Receptor at 0.5 Hours, End of PCI, and 8 Hours After Loading Doses of Ticagrelor and Clopidogrel as Measured by PRU From VerifyNow™ 0.5 hours, end of PCI, and 8 hours after the loading dose Participants with low (\<150) baseline PRU values were excluded.
