Platelet function testing in clinical diagnostics.
Although the utility of platelet function testing is still under debate, the necessity to inhibit platelets in patients suffering from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease is undoubted and well proven. The wide variety of available platelet function tests often using different methodologies, the apparent lack of standardization, and finally the emerging evidence on the clinical value of p...
متن کاملThe gears keep turning: current progress in platelet function testing.
performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) could represent an important approach in basic platelet research or in clinical diagnosis of platelet function disorders [8]. However, implementation of such methods (TEM and HPLC) in a routine laboratory for clinical hemostaseology or blood banks could be challenging. A novel platelet activation test in unprocessed blood (pac-tUB) based on flow cytometr...
متن کاملPlatelet function testing
Blood platelets contribute to normal haemostasis in two main ways. They adhere to subendothelial microfibrils and collagen in the blood vessel wall, after which they change shape, undergo a specific release reaction, and aggregate with each other to form a primary haemostatic plug. As a consequence of these events, particularly during release and aggregation, procoagulant activities are generat...

See article on pageS 126-35 Platelets play a key role in the development of thrombotic complications in patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). 1 Therefore, compliance with antiplatelet drug therapy, in particular the oral antiplatelet agents aspirin and clopidogrel, represents a pivotal secondary prevention measure in these patie...
متن کاملClinical Utility of Platelet Function Testing Following Non-Cardioembolic Stroke.
OBJECTIVE To verify the usefulness in selection of antiplatelet agent based on the platelet functional assays on the secondary prevention of ischemic stroke. METHODS Platelet functional assays were performed twice for acute ischemic stroke patients at hospitalization and 1 month after. An antiplatelet agent was administered based on the results of initial assay. The alterations of platelet ag...
