Impact of high on-treatment platelet reactivity after angioplasty in patients with peripheral arterial disease.

Conclusion: In this small exploratory study, HTPR was frequent in PAD patients. Furthermore, the results are suggestive that MALE might be associated with dual HTPR. This leads to the hypothesis that optimized antithrombotic regimens post percutaneous transluminal angioplasty should be tested in clinical trials. PMID: 32252582 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
