During and at 12 hours after abciximab therapy, impedance and turbidimetric platelet aggregation to 5 micromol/L ADP were comparable and closely correlated with GP IIb/IIIa receptor blockade. However, at 36 hours after abciximab treatment, impedance platelet aggregation more closely paralleled GP IIb/IIIa receptor blockade and indicated a slower recovery of platelet function than turbidimetric aggregometry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
