Use of a Point-of-Care Platelet Function Assay for the Prediction of Atherothrombotic Events (ASAN-VERIFY)

January 31, 2011 updated by: CardioVascular Research Foundation, Korea

Use of a Point-of-Care Platelet Function Assay to Improve the Prediction of Atherothrombotic Events After Implantation of Drug-Eluting Stents: ASAN-VerifyNow Registry

  1. To evaluate the role of VerifyNow test as prognostic marker in routine clinical practice using drug-eluting stents.
  2. To determine the add-on-effect of VerifyNow test beyond on conventional risk factors (clinical, lesions, or procedural factors).
  3. To compare the prognostic utility of VerifyNow test with several biomarkers.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

Predictive role of a point-of-care assay (VerifyNow test) has not been well evaluated in large number of patients receiving drug-eluting stents as a routine practice.

In addition, additional predictive effect of a point-of-care assay, as compared to conventional clinical factors or other biomarkers, might be clinically interesting and important.

Study Population

The study population included consecutive patients with de novo coronary artery disease who underwent an initial PCI with drug-eluting stents and had VerifyNow test at the Asan Medical Center (Seoul, Korea)

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Consecutive patients with established coronary artery disease receiving PCI with stent implantation

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Cardiogenic shock
  • Patients using concomitant medication known to affect platelet function other than aspirin (i.e. nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents, dipyramidole, upstream glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors)
  • patients with a known platelet function disorder or a whole blood platelet count of less than 150000/μL.
