Trial Outcomes & Findings for Whole Blood Platelet Aggregation in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients on Aspirin Study (NCT NCT01768637)

NCT ID: NCT01768637

Last Updated: 2019-04-19

Results Overview

Citrated whole blood was used to measure platelet aggregation induced by agonist (arachidonic acid at 5 mM concentration) using impedance whole blood platelet aggregometry via a Chrono-log aggregometer. Values at baseline (visit 1) was compared between groups with post treatment values (visit 2) after 2 weeks of aspirin treatment

Participant Flow

Participants were recruited from December 10, 2012 to January 31, 2014 from outpatient clinics at Parkland hospital, Dallas Veterans Affairs hospital and University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX, USA.

From 1,545 participants screened from outpatient clinics, 196 eligible patients were approached for enrollment, 128 refused and 48 signed consent.
