Does measurement of platelet reactivity predict subacute postoperative graft/stent thrombosis in patients undergoing lower extremity revascularization?
Increased platelet reactivity (>70.8% aggregation or <29.2% inhibition) is predictive of subacute postoperative graft/stent thrombosis following lower extremity revascularization.
8% platelet aggregation and/or 70.8% platelet aggregation and <29.2% platelet inhibition, consideration of an alternative or augmented antithrombotic regimen for high-risk patients may decrease the risk of postoperative thrombotic events.
