Introduction of the antiplatelet agents of new generations and the occurrence of the phenomenon of "aspirin-resistance" triggered the search for better, simpler and more reliable routine diagnostic methods to monitor platelet reactivity. Our objective was to evaluate the usefulness and reliability of two simple methods: platelet function analyzer (PFA-100) and whole blood platelet aggregometry for monitoring of platelet function in 18 healthy blood donors and 35 patients with ischaemic heart disease (IHD) subjected to small doses/75 mg and 150 mg a day) of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin). In 50% of healthy blood donors the intake of 75 mg ASA a day resulted in the prolongation of PFA-100 collagen/epinephrine closure time (CEPI = (relevant to reduced platelet reactivity) of over 150 s, whereas 75% donors responded to 150 mg ASA-. Otherwise, the daily dose of 150 mg ASA resulted in a prolonged CEPI merely in 23% of in IHD patients. At both doses ASA completely inhibited the arachidonic acid-induced whole blood platelet aggregation in all healthy donors and in all but 3 IHD patients. Collagen-induced platelet aggregation was only negligibly affected by either dose of ASA. Our results point that the simultaneous monitoring of the PFA-100 collagen/epinephrine closure time and whole blood platelet aggregometry (Chrono-Log) enables to reliably evaluate the inhibition of platelet function by ASA and discriminate the partial or complete platelet insensitivity to aspirin. The phenomenon of more frequent platelet aspirin-resistance in IHD patients requires to be verified in randomised clinical prospective studies. |
