The Potential Value of Near Patient Platelet Function Testing in PCI: Randomised Comparison of 600 mg versus 900 mg Clopidogrel Loading Doses

Table 1

The %PIn, %CIn, and % Change in PRU of (a) all healthy volunteers 6 hours post 600 mg clopidogrel, (b) poor responders to 600 mg: 6 hours post 600 mg clopidogrel, (c) poor responders to 600 mg: 6 hours post 900 mg clopidogrel. Data presented as mean ± 95% confidence interval of the mean (numbers analysed).
