Why the study?
Does acute myocardial infarction alter systemic blood coagulation and platelet activation at microvascular injury sites compared to stable coronary artery disease?
Does acute myocardial infarction alter systemic blood coagulation and platelet activation at microvascular injury sites compared to stable coronary artery disease?
Acute myocardial infarction induces systemic activation of blood coagulation that significantly modifies coagulant reactions at peripheral microvascular injury sites compared to stable CAD.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May indicate systemic hypercoagulability in AMI; hypothesis-generating for microvascular coagulation targets, should not yet change practice.
Undas et al. (2008) studied this question.
