Risk of bleeding and adverse outcomes predicted by thromboelastography platelet mapping in patients taking clopidogrel within 7 days of non-cardiac surgery

Background Patients often fail to stop clopidogrel appropriately before non‐cardiac surgery. Thromboelastography platelet mapping (TEG‐PM) can be used to measure the percentage adenosine 5′‐diphosphate platelet receptor inhibition (ADP‐PRI) by clopidogrel in these patients. Methods This prospective...
