Abstract
In this study a high prevalence of on-clopidogrel and aspirin high platelet reactivity was found, which was significantly associated with the risk of death. Conversely, a low on-clopidogrel platelet reactivity was associated with a higher risk of bleeding. These results document that the entity of platelet inhibition is associated with both thrombotic and bleeding complications in PAD patients.
