Platelet Agregation in Patients on ECMO

Recruiting
Conditions
Platelet Refractoriness
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: P2Y12 Platelet Aggregation Inhibitor
Registration Number
NCT05542134
Lead Sponsor
University Medical Centre Ljubljana
Brief Summary

An observational study in which investigators will observe platelet inhibition in patients on VA ECMO acorrding to treatment with P2Y12 inhibitor.

Detailed Description

Investigators will perform an observational study in which platelet inhibition in patients on VA ECMO acorrding to treatment with P2Y12 inhibitor will be observed.

Participants will be divided into three groups:

A: patients on V-A ECMO without P2Y12 inhibitors B patients on V-A ECMO with P2Y12 inhibitors with administration of P2Y12 inhibitor at the time of ECMO insertion C: patients on V-A ECMO already recieving P2Y12 inhibitors at the time of ECMO insertion.

Blood samples will be taken prior to and at 2, 4, 12, 22, 48, 72 after ECMO insertion and after removal of an ECMO. VerifyNow System will be used to measure platelet agregation (PRU test).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Verify now P2Y12 platelet inhibition(Time Frame: Hour 24 after VA ECMO removal)

Platelet inhibition measured by VerifyNow as P2Y12 reaction units (PRU). Platelet reactivity reflects P2Y12 inhibitor effect with higher PRU values showing low P2Y12 response and lower values decreased platelet reactivity due to the effect of a P2Y12 inhibitor.
