Key result
Aspirin resistance following CABG was transient, with the number of good responders increasing from 3 of 24 patients on postoperative day 10 to 18 of 24 patients at 1 month.

Early post-CABG platelet testing may overestimate resistance; leaves open whether serial monitoring improves outcomes in larger studies.

Is aspirin resistance transient in patients following coronary artery bypass grafting?
Aspirin resistance observed early after CABG is transient, with the majority of patients achieving good platelet response by 1 month postoperatively.
ski et al. (2005) conducted an observational in Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) (n=24). Aspirin was evaluated on Platelet responsiveness to aspirin (good, incomplete, weak, or nonresponders). Aspirin resistance following CABG was transient, with the number of good responders increasing from 3 of 24 patients on postoperative day 10 to 18 of 24 patients at 1 month.
