NCT00644657
Brief Summary:
This study will explore the effect of clopidogrel on coated-platelets in patients who are given a loading dose before diagnostic catheterization or percutaneous coronary intervention. We hypothesis that clopidogrel will reduce the percentage of platelets that are coated and therefore more hypercoagulable.
Detailed Description:
Platelet activity will be determined by light transmission aggregometry at baseline, after a 300 mg dose of clopidogrel and after the catheterization and/or angioplasty procedure. The change in the percentage of platelets that are coated platelets will be determined.
