Brief Summary

Platelets play a major role in thrombus formation and platelet size, measured by Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) correlates with platelet activity. MPV is increased in patients with Myocardial Infarction (MI) and is an independent predictor of adverse events in patients with ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) . Data on MPV in patients with stable angina is limited. Aspirin and clopidogrel are antiplatelet agents administered routinely to patients undergoing PCI and are required for stent patency. MPV is not known to be affected by low dose Aspirin. Treatment with clopidogrel is thought to reduce MPV in-vitro but the magnitude of this reduction in MPV is unclear, especially in patients with stable angina undergoing PCI. An inverse correlation also exists between MPV and platelet count . The investigators aim to assess if a change occurs in MPV (∆ MPV) after routine clopidogrel administration in patients with stable angina undergoing PCI.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in MPV (∆MPV) with clopidogrel in stable angina patients undergoing PCI.

    30 days

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Change in Platelet count (∆ platelet count) with clopidogrel in stable angina patients

    30 days

  • Correlation between ∆MPV and adverse events (readmission and Myocardial Infarction) at 30 days

    30 days

Study Arms (1)

Mean Platelet Volume

4 blood samples (1 pre procedure before clopidogrel loading) and 3 after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention will be drawn to assess the MPV

Other: Mean Platelet Volume

Interventions

Ten milliliters (mls) of blood will be drawn from eligible, consented patients at the time of the admission, collected in ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) tubes, and tested for CBC. Platelets have an average life span that can vary from 8-10 days or 10-36 days. To minimize this bias, three additional MPV samples will be collected on day 1, day 7 and day 30 post PCI.
