Why the study?
Do changes in platelet membrane glycoproteins predict subacute stent thrombosis in patients undergoing coronary stenting?
Do changes in platelet membrane glycoproteins predict subacute stent thrombosis in patients undergoing coronary stenting?
Changes in platelet membrane glycoproteins, specifically enhanced GPIIb-IIIa before stenting and P-selectin after stenting, are of prognostic value in predicting subacute stent thrombosis.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May flag high stent thrombosis risk before placement; leaves open whether platelet testing should guide therapy.
Gawaz et al. (1997) studied this question.
