Brief Summary: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of clopidogrel resistance among a selected group of patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention and to observe whether there was any south-Asian Indo-Trinidadian predilection for HPR considering the well-established epidemiologic trends for accelerated CAD within this subgroup
Detailed Description: Clopidogrel a second generation oral thienopyridine remains an integral component of dual antiplatelet therapy DAPT in the management of cardiovascular disease CVD for almost two decades Several studies underscore the importance of high on-treatment platelet reactivity HPR as a prognosticator for cardiovascular events including stent thrombosis This phenomenon is often alluded to as clopidogrel resistance and yet to be clearly defined Generally it reflects the failure to achieve its antiaggregatory effect Clopidogrel response is both complex and multifactorial determined by a multitude of intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms including genetic polymorphisms of the P2Y12 receptor drug-drug interactions and clinical factors such as suboptimal dosing regimens acute coronary syndromes diabetes mellitus and possibly smoking

High pre-treatment platelet reactivity may lead to mitigated clopidogrel-induced antiplatelet effects and are more commonly observed in specific clinical scenarios such as ACS increased body mass index and diabetes mellitus in particular insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus Matetzky et al also surmised that nearly one-quarter of ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome patients would incur stent thrombosis due to this phenomenon

Overall HPR prevalence in various studies is estimated at 5-44 however these are based on largely Caucasian populations and yet to be ascertained in a Caribbean subpopulation Trinidad and Tobago has an ethnically diverse population with approximately one-third South Asian Indo-Trinidadian one-third Caribbean Black Afro-Trinidadian and the remaining one-third mostly interracial and mixed CVD is currently the leading cause of mortality in Trinidad and Tobago accounting for up to 60 of all deaths annually
