lüll Aspirin and clopidogrel resistance: methodological challenges and opportunities Gasparyan AYVasc Health Risk Manag 2010[Mar]; 6 (ä): 109-12Antiplatelet drug resistance is one of the urgent issues in current cardiovascular medicine. Many platelet function tests have been used to define responsiveness of patients with cardiovascular disease to aspirin and clopidogrel. In most studies, cut-off values of platelet function tests for defining responsiveness to antiplatelets were chosen arbitrarily. Different tests provided wide-ranging figures of the prevalence of aspirin and clopidogrel resistance, suggesting poor correlation between currently available platelet function tests. Measurement of platelet size seems to be a promising approach for monitoring antiplatelet drug therapy. This commentary highlights some limitations of studies on aspirin and clopidogrel resistance in patients undergoing coronary interventions.|*Drug Resistance[MESH]|Aspirin/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Blood Platelets/drug effects[MESH]|Cardiovascular Diseases/*drug therapy[MESH]|Clopidogrel[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Platelet Aggregation Inhibitors/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Platelet Function Tests[MESH]|Ticlopidine/*analogs & derivatives/therapeutic use[MESH] |
