Brief Summary

Clopidogrel (Plavix), a platelet ADP receptor antagonist, has become the standard of care to prevent thrombosis in interventional cardiology and is increasingly being used in unstable angina and NSTEMI. An increasing number of patients are referred to emergent or urgent CABG, and several studies, as well as our own experience, have shown that preoperative administration of irreversible platelets inhibitors increase the risk of bleeding complications following CABG.
