Impact of Chronic Kidney Disease and Platelet Reactivity on Clinical Outcomes Following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.
2021
We investigated the interaction between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and high platelet reactivity (HPR) in determining long-term clinical outcomes following elective PCI for stable coronary artery disease (CAD). A total of 500 patients treated with aspirin and clopidogrel were divided based on the presence of CKD (defined as glomerular filtration rate of < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2) and HPR (defined as a P2Y12 reaction unit value ≥ 240 at VerifyNow assay). Primary endpoint was the occurrence of major adverse clinical events (MACE) at 5 years. Patients with both CKD and HPR showed the highest estimates of MACE (25.6%, p = 0.005), all-cause death (17.9%, p = 0.004), and cardiac death (7.7%, p = 0.004). The combination of CKD and HPR was an independent predictor of MACE (HR 3.12, 95% CI 1.46-6.68, p = 0.003). In conclusion, the combination of CKD and HPR identifies a cohort of patients with the highest risk of MACE at 5 years.
