Abstract

Objective: To study the features of platelet aggregation and the rate of clopidogrel resistance in patients undergone percutaneous coronary intervention. Subject and method: A cross-sectional descriptive study with 171 patients who were successfully stenting and treated with clopidogrel at 103 Military Hospital and 175 Military Hospital from 9/2021 to 12/2022. Platelet aggregation was determined by light transmission aggregometry with specific stimulant agent ADP. Clopidogrel resistance was determined when the maximal platelet aggregation was > 50%. Result: The average age of men
(59.91 ± 11.11) was lower than that of women (68.21 ± 9.3) with p<0.05. The rate of female patients with diabetes (39.53%) was higher than that of men (22.65%) with p<0.05. Platelet aggregation in the smoking patient group was higher than the non-smoking group (51.48 ± 15.07% vs 44.11 ± 15.09%, p<0.05), at the same time in the patient group with NT-proBNP level ≥ 300pg/ml had higher platelet aggregation than the group with NT-proBNP level < 300pg/ml (50.54 ± 15.89% vs. 43.7 ± 14.45%, p<0.05). Platelet aggregation showed a weak positive correlation with BMI (r = 0.24) and total stent length (r = 0.15) with p<0.05. The clopidgrel resistance rate was 43.68%. In the group of patients who smoked or had BMI ≥ 23kg/m2 or had NT-proBNP levels ≥ 300pg/ml, the clopidogrel resistance rate was higher than the other group with p<0.05. Conclusion: Platelet aggregation in the group of patients who smoked or had NT-proBNP levels ≥ 300pg/ml was higher than the other groups, and correlated positively with BMI and the number of stents treated. The clopidogrel resistance rate was 43.68%. In the group of patients who had BMI ≥ 23kg/m2 or smoked or had NT-proBNP levels ≥ 300pg/ml, the rate of clopidogrel resistance was higher than in the other groups with p<0.05.
